look… we don’t like gen AI, but honestly, i’m tired of talking and thinking about it. i don’t want to complain about it anymore, i just want it to go away


that's fair. i'll admit i've been tired of hearing about it too. so i might just mute the word on freetube honestly. but it'll occasionally show up in tech videos that have almost nothing to do with ai. since it's the new big thing(tm). it's happened to me twice now. so i kinda wanted to vent.

Sun Nov 16, 2025 2:15 pm Re: Two truths and a lie Sun Nov 16, 2025 2:15 pm Re: Two truths and a lie

can we make it so that we dont start a new round until the lie is figured out

That sounds like a great idea, I imagine it'll simply be very cluttered otherwise. As for my guesses for the ones posted so far...

1. I have 6 pets
2. I only have 2 ex-gfs
3. I hate tomatoes

I'm guessing the second one, mainly because of the use of "only" when referring to these 2 ex-girlfriends... then again I've never dated, so I don't know.

i have 6 pets (am i stealing this one or is it true? your guess)
my parents gave me a puzzle that i'm afraid to use because it keeps sticking to the back of my plates and getting the colors all washed out
i've been to chiptole but never had chiptole sauce

Seems this one's already been answered, but I'm happy to report my initial guess was the Chipotle one (it seems adding multiple quotes into a single message wiped the previous text I wrote for the guesses, which is annoying - although it may just be my clumsiness).


1. i have worn a dress once or twice
2. i have 3 african violets under my care
3. my other favorite animal is the bat

I'm guessing the dress. Not because of the prospect of wearing a dress at all, but having worn it once or twice. I don't know what it is, but I have a hunch you've worn a dress well over two times.

add me on wlm- zodah43@escargot.chat

nice to meet yall :yellow_bouncey:

Sat Dec 20, 2025 7:49 pm Hey um Sat Dec 20, 2025 7:49 pm Hey um
:yellow_look: So Hi i guess :yellow_look:
This is my first experience ever with any forum so uh please don't judge me too hard for my goofy actions okay :cyan_angel:
That said, hopefully I don't get banned for being too cringe :yellow_bouncey:

I don't know what to say about my ahh personality tbh, I'm a nerd at school and I'm also taking a beginner C++ programming course at a university this year, maybe that leads me to something, I don't really know since I'm treating it as a hobby and not a career option.

Now looking at my age you probably think "what is this diddy blud doing on this forum if Frutiger Aero died as a mainstream aesthetic long before he learned to type". That is indeed a fair question, and actually i think thats why it's worth mentioning that my first years of experience with computers in general came with my grandma's old Samsung RV511, which ran Windows 7. Those years basically defined how I use PCs and what I like in them. My favorite toys were Powerpoint 2003 and Windows Movie maker, I also remember playing Purble Place. Btw am i the only one who doesn't understand why did they remove such a lagre variety of templates from PP 2003 when releasing 2007 and later editions? :orange_angry:

So yeah because Windows 7 and its tools are obviously frutiger aero looking at the aesthetic gives me nostagia due to my personal expirience. (Don't bully me for being too young please :yellow_raining_1: )

As for my plans, I have quite big ones in mind. Next year I wanna try to build a retro PC (which will also be my first ever expirince with PC building). I figured out despite how used I am to Win7 I will make it Windows Vista, since I think it's a seriously underrated and overhated OS, and also because making it usable in 2025/26 seems like a greater and more exciting challenge.
In the distant future I want to start making my own asadal-style imagery (which I'll also make public domain for yall to use (That is, if i ever make it in the first place lol)) and maybe compose some goofy ahh beats in reaper (I wanna do all that on the Vista PC, of course).

So yeah, thank you if you've read it this far (maybe I'm not as uninteresting as i believe I am haha (also this is just goofy self-irony don't call a therapist on me I'm not dihpressed or anything I swear)) The journey has just started, I'm looking forward to having fun with yall :cheers:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DP3rDP02lE0

in short i hate this song since it's used on every video that is just OMG SO RETRO 2000S Y2K NOSTALGIA MP3 NEW 3DS XL PSP INCELCORE OLDER BROTHER RETRO (and that always throw shit to minimalism like its the worst thing humans created)


well, I don't hate this song, buuut doesn't sound "frutiger aero," or even like a parody of it, it's more like a "throwback hits only 90’s kids remember!" video you'd see, it's just like EVERY OTHER basic nostalgia track I've ever heard, no hate to who made it, but it's a weak A E S T H E T I C :orange_rolleyes:

and uhh... sorry, I still suck at writing without coming off as forced :yellow_look:

i think it's just bias from having windows 7 be the first operating system i ever used by myself. but also could be from things having effort to pop out and have color and such. like Menus. take the ps3 menu and compare it to something like the nintendo switch. i know it's an unfair comparasion but comparing the wii u to it would be an insult to the wii u.
but most of it amounts up to the bias of everything being Black and White with No Fun and Corporate and such now compared to everything showing a sort of bright future with technology and nature existing together. No i'm not gonna be part of the "future we were promised" gang because they did Not promise anything

i'm personally not a fan bc they're only able to have apps that connect to the internet
which means they dont have as many programs as windows, macos or even linux
plus i kinda hate google as a company
but i do think it has certain use-cases like if you're really worried about you or someone else accidentally screwing up your computer, or you don't need many apps and are fine with the google ecosystem
