I’ve seen criticism about these laws holding back AI companies’ development

These laws can’t do anything these grifter-companies full of misguided attempts to mis-use LLMs and LAMs aren’t doing to themselves already, tbh.

It’s all just a huge bubble of C-suites blowing hot smoke up each other’s arses.

Ah, they’re all crap.

Came to Teams from Slack, some upsides, some downsides. It’s a corporate communication tool, I don’t use it because I think it’s beautiful and elegant, I use it because I get paid money to use it.

All four remaining players are very happy!

Over a million actually by now, and they got above 15 mil total.

It sounds like they actually control quite a lot.

Turns out, when you do something clearly not okay and then actively go and taunt the people who could sue you for it with it, they might just, you know, do that. Since you actually went and asked them about it.

Same, and honestly, that’s enough for now. It already cuts out a giant portion of the footprint and I got so many other things to worry about, I can work on finding replacement cheese that isn’t a joke later.

Usually this indicates that the drainage cycle is repeated again and again as the wash is still “too wet”.

Could have all kinds of reasons, check the drain sieve in particular, mine had this silver “sheen” clogging everything that was packed and hardened bits of plastic and fibre mushed together.

Yeah it’s the same when people say this about FFXIV, which does have an extensive money-shop for extra mounts/animations/skins/etc.

They’re pricey as hell, but at the same time the only thing you ever might feel pressured into getting are:

• Fantasia (character do-overs) after enough years because you feel like you’ve seen enough of this face and want another one and want to finally become a cat-girl like everybody else is! The game does however give you two for free, and we’re soon getting a third one, at least temporarily.
• Character boosts if your friends are being assholes and berate you for not skipping the story (seen it happen) and it starts to get to you, instead of what 99% of the community does which is the exact opposite and encouraging everyone to take their time however many many months that might be. 😅

Someone owned a patent for minigames on the loading screen which is why we did not get thise after Broken Sword. At least that expired, so now for example we got Mario Party Jamboree doing it again.

Congratulations Americans. At least the last time you had the excuse “Damn, we could not have predicted he’d be this bad and incompetent as a president”. (I mean you could have and everyone else did, but hey I can see how you might use it as an excuse)

Must be really terrifying to see a woman in a position of power if you’d rather vote for a fascist who wants to quite openly dismantle the checks and balances on his own position.

Probably, yes? Printed paper is quite cheap, compared to sticker material. Negligible as the per-square-meter cost of both is, and how many more stickers you get out of one.

Yeah I suspect they own the remaining titles. So there’s no cost to keeping them on there. I was also really surprised they keep swinging at the concept, considering how tepid the reception was beyond the original internet hype for Bandersnatch. Which makes sense, people don’t watch movies to actively be ready to press a button on short notice, you don’t exactly sit down on the sofa to go “Oh I know, how about 1,5h of QTE threat?”.

It’s a very cool concept, but one that targets the wrong audience, basically.

Yeah but have you seen the cutscenes of DA:V?

If that childish word salad sounds “preachy” to you, you need to go to a different preacher! Yours can’t even english.

How can this sound preachy to anybody? Has the fascist right lowered their own standard of education enough to where they think Marvel-style dialogue is normal?!

I mean despite how I feel the linked article’s author uses a type of language that makes me wary of them, I kinda agree. The utterly Marvel way the game talks about things combined with the inane inability to ever have any conflict, negatives or issues combines to essentially make a mockery of very real issues.

And I’m sorry, it’s one thing to want to use art to showcase real issues and poke at them and shine a spotlight onto them. That’s good, personally I want art to do that. But when you essentially use it as a joke piece due to the inherently non-serious nature of all your scenes, it just becomes even worse than not doing it. 😔 Please don’t shine a light onto serious topics if the only thing you use the light for is to point and laugh and mock.

I mean it makes sense to target these people. If you’re stupid enough to believe the shit Musk or Trump spout, you’re also stupid enough to not see these very obvious scams.

I mean even for video games, early access just means “release, but we openly tell you it’s unfinished and buggy”.

For board games, it das you went to retail instead of Kickstarter where you’ll get your game 6 months later and paid more for it.

I mean there’s probably a lot who don’t, but they’re busy firing missiles at civilians in Ukraine to get around their 15y work camp sentence.

I was able to do it myself! the cost of running a Lemmy and Mastodon instance for myself is so cheap… I’m actually shocked more people aren’t doing it!

I mean what for? It costs even less to use an existing Lemmy or Mastodon server given the minimal load you add.

That the guy making the table is pulling things out of their arse, basically.

Hrm, I’ll be honest then, you’re the very very first time I hear someone wanting to consume game reviews meta aggregation in a chronological way (instead of by-game). Not once seen this sentiment before.

I dunno, it’s just not how people use these pages I would assume. You create search shortcuts for them, not RSS feeds. You want to look up what various reviewers at large say about a specific game, more so because this changes over time (so would a feed udoate each time the score changes? Only once on the very first review? Only once it stops updating for X time? What if that takes months?). It’s the polar opposite of once you have 2-3 reviewers who mirror your personal take well where you might want to know each time these people post a new review.
