Rod Stewart’s pumped stomach is unimpressed

CarlsIII,

Something about needing his stomach pumped because there was too much semen in it.

CarlsIII,

“Sorry, do you mind if I ask if that was funny? Do you think an AI recreation of a dead person would find it funny? Just asking.”

CarlsIII,

“Living room” is just a name we came up with. Just rename everything else to “living ____”, such as “living car”, “living office”, or “living restaurant”.

Good gaming experiences with no HUD?

I’m starting to find that HUDs in games clutter the screen and take away from being fully immersed in the game. I like games that force you to pay attention to what’s going on in the game and not numbers/markers on the edges of the display. What are some of your favorite games to play with no HUD? Here are a few of mine:...

CarlsIII,

I don’t think it’d be possible to trick me into thinking I’m not playing a video game. You can have 0 UI, and I’ll still know I’m looking at a screen and pushing buttons. Maybe way off in the future when VR has gotten a lot better, sure, probably.

CarlsIII,

I feel like what you’re talking about is something more like “deep involvement”

CarlsIII,

This makes more sense to me than the “I believe I’m actually in the game world” definition I’ve been given before

CarlsIII,

That sounds like the same thing. If I actually believe I am actually the character, I have been tricked.

CarlsIII,

Sorry, when you said “have the mindset that you are the character”, that came across to me as believing you are the character. Also, I have been told in the past by people who care about immersion that that is what immersion is, so I’m still trying to grasp what it actually is.

I’m also struggling to see having a UI hurts immersion, especially since, as you say, reading a book is immersion, and a book is all text. I’m wondering, also, if maybe different people mean different things when they talk about immersion.

CarlsIII,

People in their 20s are still basically teenagers.

CarlsIII,

It’s not Devo. It’s apparently very easy to upload music in some other artist’s name. This happens all the time for a lot of artists.

CarlsIII,

This was happening a number of months ago too

CarlsIII,

Earth: “I’ll speak slowly since I’m in the Sol system”

Audience: “Boooooooo!!”

CarlsIII,

Wow, maybe the taliban really will be defeated by capitalism

CarlsIII,

The headline doesn’t mention that someone found a way for it to output its training data, which seems like the bigger story

CarlsIII,
