Businesses want to grow, not keep stable. They might fire a few ppl in the short term, but in the long term it’s more likely the group of 10 would just do now the work of a 12-13 group with AI, producing hugher outputs for the same money they were getting before, meaning extra profit for the shareholders.

After learning about the experiment where a woman lived in a house with a dolphin to teach it, and by the end of the project she was instructed to jerk off the dolphin to calm him down, I cannot be surprised anymore

slaacaa,

Very sorry for the life of this lady.

Shitbulls should be banned.

slaacaa,

There was a change of ownership, they have just been bought by a few superfans. Since then the headlines are noticably stronger

slaacaa,

Hey, waddup big T? Ready to hit them halfpipes?

slaacaa,

You say you don’t go on reddit out of principle. Now can’t you understand someone not wanting users sit through a 2 second pointless marketing animation, out of a similar principle?

slaacaa,

Things like these make might heart warm. They remind me of a time when video most games where about making a good experience for the users, not about endless MTX and soulless always online games that all try to be the same thing. Good to see that there are still some people in the industry, who carry own these principles.

Welcome to the future of the internet. Good luck trying to find a 2 days old news article on facebook from a big publisher, because you wanted to read the comments.

slaacaa,

Most of the times I just listen to new movies on my iPod Shuffle

Netflix Windows app is set to remove its downloads feature, while introducing ads (www.techradar.com)

Netflix has managed to annoy a good number of its users with an announcement about an upcoming update to its Windows 11 (and Windows 10) app: support for adverts and live events will be added, but the ability to download content is being taken away....

Capitalism breeds innovation

slaacaa,

Same, very happy with it, blocks everything, and also includes VPN.

Youtube ads are a bit tricky, but can also be blocked by opening videos through the AdGuard app.

slaacaa,

I really hope this is true. The delay in US funding gave a huge advantage to Russia

slaacaa,

I agree, but we all know that they are greedy and will use AI beyond its capabilities, fire some writers, quest designers and animators, and we’ll end up games with shitty dialogues and random quests.

slaacaa,

It has a boring gameplay loop and characters, in my opinion. I also adored the first, but the second really bored me. Got it day 1, most beautiful game ever, but after 10-15 hrs I was just hiding from combat and clickling through converstations, just pushing to finish the story. I’m not even going to pick up the DLC.

It will make the shareholders richer, as you can fire a few writers and animators to save costs, and still sell a the game with shittier dialogue

slaacaa,

Is there an AI technology that would help me not roll my eyes every time I hear AI? Can’t wait to add this to the garbage pile of popped bubbles next to NFT, blockchain and metaverse.

And I’m saying that as somebody who uses LLMs for work regularly, it is a useful tool, but the absolute delusional bullshit hype that imagines uses beyond its capabilities is exhausting.

Seems like Putin made a really good investment with funneling money into some Republican politicians’ pockets, the delay in the US funding might actually turn the war in his favor. I’m disgusted by the traitors in the West cheering for Russia, the literal evil empire from the pages of a comic book, trying destroy our way of life in Europe.

slaacaa,

I mean, not much commitment needed from our side: I will see the gameplay and the reviews after launch. If I like it, I can buy it based on that and I have a good game to play during Xmas break. If not, I skip it, many interesting games to play

Also, homeless is far from a slur in my opinion, and a similar term is used in many language. Using unhoused doesn’t change anything, the people you talk about still don’t have a place to live, but now you can feel better about yourself by using a different word.

Good article on the topic, highlighting the origin of the word, and the reasons many try to use it: theguardian.com/…/homeless-unhoused-houseless-ter…

slaacaa,

You bowel to no one

slaacaa,

But they can, because it seems like most gamers have goldfish memory, and they forgot/forgave the shitty launch and first years

slaacaa,

You’re confused because it doesn’t make sense, the journalist who wrote it doesn’t have even a basic understanding of business or finance

slaacaa,

I’m always baffled how little some journalists understand the topics they write about. Still, isn’t there an editor who have read WSJ once, to ask for a correction of the headline?
