So what? AI can and will say just about anything unless it’s specifically altered not to. This story is just “the devs haven’t yet bothered censoring output about Musk.” There are so many legit reasons to dislike Musk and this story is basically “a d20 got rolled and it hit a 20!” Fuck off with this.

Holy shit. I had been thinking about upgrading while prices were still relatively low but have been trying to convince myself my 6700xt is fine and will hold up… Guess that window is closed now lol

Valve has made attempts to take down projects that follow those rules. TF2Classic is the example that comes to my mind since it’s the main one I’ve played, but I know there are several others. In TF2C’s case, they tried contacting Valve to find out why they’d been hit with a C&D, never heard back, and eventually quietly resumed development.

Some kind of miscommunication between legal and the devs? Maybe internal drama? Maybe they didn’t really pay attention and still aren’t aware TF2C is back up? Who knows. Still happened tho.

On the one hand calling it AI is annoying, but on the other we’ve been calling video game NPC logic “AI” for as long as I can remember and no one thinks they’re actually sapient. Surely we can get to that point with GenAI as well.

I’m no astrophysicist, but isn’t it possible that’s exactly what that asteroid field was in the process of doing? After all, there were several “big ones” for the Falcon to land on. Especially if there are some big collisions happening to keep all the rocks from aggregating smoothly, couldn’t there be a grace period between “cloud of space dust” and “planet” where there could be a dense field of sizeable rocks? However unlikely, surely there’s some scenario where it’s at least possible

It’s a completely different film, far more action-oriented

Terminator 2 is tonally almost completely different from 1. 1’s soul is much more a horror movie, complete with a damsel in distress and a heavily uncanny villain. 2 had every chance to lean into that sense of unease, but really doesn’t explore that uncomfortable emotion despite the T-1000 being much more threatening on paper.

Happy to report I was wrong. They released it as a torrent; I’m downloading it now

The same could be said about terminator 2

My bet is before release. Shoulda just made it available instead of announcing it.

Lucky you. I’ve been letting calls from any number I don’t recognize go to voicemail for years and nothing ever seems to change.

I wonder if switching up the order more often would be a good way to remind everyone that every letter is a separate group of people

Literally just asking you to explain your own claim of “cache makes a huge difference for gaming,” and instead you walk that back, pretend like I said anywhere that ALL I do with it is game, and get sassy on top of that. Smdh

You said that buying a CPU like mine, with a slightly smaller cache, was a bad idea specifically for gaming. I’m not clear on why it makes a big difference.

Is it really that big of a deal? I just upgraded to a 9900x and am playing Yakuza kiwami 2 and several vr games including half life alyx at max settings. On the rare occasion I drop below 120fps, the bottleneck has very clearly been my 6700xt. I don’t think I’ve seen the cpu ever come close to maxing out

Yeah ceramic makes me crazy. I had two old ceramic plates I took from my parent’s house more than 5 years ago and have been regularly using them to reheat leftovers ever since.

Last week, one of them shattered during the reheat. Same temp as always (300F), nothing special about the food I put on it (rice, so that was extra fun to clean up), it just decided 5 years in was the time to give up the ghost. Fuckin peesa shit.

A steadily growing portion of American education is about rote memorization instead of critical thinking because we tied testing to funding and true/false is easier to grade

Oh, I just saw she links to cs.rin.ru last night while looking for solutions.

Also, wasn’t being serious anyway

On the one hand, oh no, not the fitgirl repacks!

On the other, I spent an hour last night failing to get my controller to work with her repack of Yakuza kiwami, so maybe it’s for the best…

Are you misreading “preparing” as literally any writing?Even that Wikipedia article goes into fair use. Let’s plays are potential infringement because people make money from them. There’s stuff like that one Switch emulator that got taken down a while back because it had a direct effect on Nintendo’s ability to sell hardware. But there’s also stuff like PokeMMO which has been allowed to persist because they don’t actually distribute any Nintendo code and Nintendo isn’t selling those games anymore.

What effect on the market can there be for a fan remaster of a 20 year old game that isn’t for sale anymore? Hard to argue that doesn’t fall under fair use.
