this is not about wanting this is about companies taking advantage of vulnerable people who should be grieving. This can cause lasting psychological harm

you might as well be saying, if someone came to a drug maker, and wanted some heroine, and provided ingredients for heroine, and agreed to whatever costs were involved, isn’t that entirely their business?

and yet, the “genius inventors” keep creating Torment Nexuses

wow, so many reasons

• to create a mimic of a person you must first destroy their privacy
• after an AI has devoured all they’ve ever written or spoken on video it will then mimic such person very well, but most likely still be a legal property of a company that made it
• in a situation like that you’d then have to pay a subscription to interact with the mimic (because god forbid you ever get actually sold something nowadays)

now imagine having to pay to talk with a ghost of your loved one, a chatbot that sometimes allows you to forget that the actual person is gone, and makes all the moments where that illusion is broken all the more painful. A chatbot that denies you grief, and traps you in hell where you can talk with the person you lost, but never touch them, never feel them, never see them grow (or you could pay extra for the chatbot to attend new skill classes you could talk about :)).

It would make grieving impossible and take constant advantage of those who “just want to say goodbye”. Grief is already hard as is, a wide spread mimicry of our dead ones would make it a psychological torture

i avoided mentioning them for my own sanity, i was very close to going over them and also sea elves :)

and also sanity of others, i was already getting into double parenthasies trying to explain the not so well known lore-

not really, but they all have the ability to piss off the wrong deadra and get cursed.

Dunmer are also changed elves, they used to be Chimer and have a similar ish skin colour to altmer. But then because their leaders (the tribunal) pissed off Azura she turned their eyes to volcanic red and skin to ash

Bosmer (probably) used to be unwilling shapeshifters until the green pact, though different in-lore historic accounts might disagree

and that leaves Altmer (from the playable races) who are technically the most direct descendants of Aldmer (the first elves). This is also in part why Thalmor exists, some Altmer see themselves as better than every other elf, and obviously better than the men or beast races. Also they want to destroy the world because they think the Aedra (the primordial spirits that used their powers to create the world and then stayed on Nirn [mortal plane] turning into mortal aldmer and men) made a mistake by staying (or were tricked into staying by Lorkhan), they think Altmer have a claim to godhood and will do anything to take it.

fun fact! Orcs in TES are elves.

at some point in history a group of aldmer and their leader trinamac did something boethiah (a deadric prince) was not a fan of. So trinemac got eaten, turned into a deadric prince malacath, and all his followers were turned into orsimer (proper names of all elven races all end with -mer, altmer, bosmer, dunmer), that is orcs

do not right click inspect element on the paywall window and then delete the code & re-enable scrolling (i always forget how to, but don’t google it)

the downside is that sometimes half the article is neutered anyway

goodness how i despise power tripping moderators.

i’ve been a mod in one pretty large and active online community and somehow power has never gotten into my head, but i’ve seen so many completely trip out over the smallest non-issues, fucking bizarre

“apple” used to be a generic term for fruit. So it’s actually “fruit of the earth”, the French are poetic like that

& “apple” used to be a generic term for fruit

iirc an “apple” in both French and English used to just be any fruit. And over time it shifted to mean just the most common one

and you know the french, always very poetic, of course they’ll call a potato a fruit of dirt

eh, on the off chance they aren’t, why not. I don’t see those ads anyway and I do enjoy being a nuisance, even if a minor one
