The thing that shits me about this is google appear to the public to be late to the party but the reality is they DID put safety before profit when it came to AI. The sheer amount of research and papers put out by them on AI should have proven to people they know what they’re doing.
And then openAI throw caution into the wind and essentially make google and others panic knee jerk because there’s really money to be made, and now everyone seems to be throwing caution into the wind and pushing it into the mainstream before society is ready.
Not sure why we’re arguing this quote with the same two games over and over. Nms and cyberpunk are great games, but they’re a rarity.
Game Dev crunch is a plague in th industry, we suffer as consumers who cop bad releases on release. The whole industry could learn from its roots and delay things for a better initial product.
Defending the current practice of redevelopment in post is almost consumer gaslighting.
I use and have been using chatGPT for programming for months. In the past 48 hours ChatGPT4 has gone from being mostly right to almost obnoxiously wrong. Like it cant remember context even a few chats deep. Is any one else getting this?
Weirdly, bard seems to have gotten significantly better around the same time. Are we just getting used to the tools and there’s homogenisation of experience going on or what?!
Literally need to wait for the boomers to die out. Yes there’s good ones but the majority are spoilt, entitled and easily influenced by the right and traditional media.

It’s interesting to see the breakdown by electorate. Electorates close to Melbourne and Sydney cbds voted yes. The further out of vic and nsw, the more the no grows.
Qld, wa, NT and SA didn’t have the same problem. Blanket no.
Tldr, the progressive part of the country that wants this is city focused. The rest of the country has a long way to go.
Jimmy Carr was on Joe Rogan (I know he’s awful but it was a decent episode) recently and was talking about how Hitler worked out propaganda works best when the “other” feels alien, which is why he closed down clubs in the 30s. Seeing Jews as “one of us” through clubs and hospitality made the propaganda against them ineffective because they were just seen as one of the people and this Hitler guy was just a nut, the whole movie cabaret being about it.
I think you’re right. Melbourne is an amazing melting pot of people, so it’s difficult to be not emphatic towards a cause that would improve their QOL
Yeah same, but voltann are fun too. Glad to see them back, at least it means I can also field these guys as proxies so to speak.
I’ve been deep diving on why squats/space dwarves were squatted in the first place and it’s kind of fair enough. They were selling fine, according to jarvis but design wise they felt they just missed the mark of what dwarves should be in 40k, especially as GW turned up the grimdark. Other races adapted to it because their styles were more solidified. There’s lovely charm in these guys, but they definitely needed some refinement, as their designs either leaned into being space dwarves and the models are great. The ones that looked like just more imperial guard, not so much. I kind of wish they did have a go of revamping them back then. Some of the unreleased models that have leaked are excellent and would have fit nicely, and definitely leaned even more into space dwarves (cyber beserkers and Nordic stylings…which seemed to later appear in space Wolfe’s funnily enough)
In saying that, ive been obsessed with them since I started in 2nd ed. But given I’m Australian, at the time they were super rare to come across to even buy back in the day. The only original squat I bought in a blister was a standard bearer, which I lost years later in a break-in. So I bought this set to finally have a small army of them.
I don’t think the voltann models are 100% there yet, but the lore and artwork in the latest codex is amazing. They’ve taken that Dwarven miner look, futurised it, and added a unique quirk in the maintaining of tech and cloning from the dark age. In particular, I love how they’re hiding AI STLs from the imperium and how they use them as oracle’s, and I like how they treat AI troops just as one of the team. When the helmets are down, how do you know if it’s flesh or not, and does it matter?
Which leads to some interesting head canon too - there’s lots of cybernetics and cloning going on in this army. What if all of the voltann are nothing but completely controlled and manufactured “flesh bots” for those AI oracle’s they worship. One more connecting piece…what if they used the original squat DNA for the clones?
Totally agree. I find it so bizzare that despite the complaints of never finding their style in 40k, they totally did in epic, and didn’t then take that asthetic and reapply it back to 40k!
