I’m all in favor of nuclear energy and I wish there were more people in favor of it. But is this really gonna make a difference with AI? Like, legitimately. I’ve been waiting for over a year for AI to change my life like they keep saying it will, but so far it’s been mostly just annoying and unhelpful except in rare circumstances.
I was always an Intel fan ever since I was a kid. Now I have a new work PC with a bum processor and an underperforming laptop. Not relevant to the article, I’m just mad is all. These days I’m so mad at Windows I’ve been transitioning to Linux even though I have potato brain. AMD works better with Linux so I’m probably just gonna go all AMD on my next PC. Intel and Nvidia can go suck a fuck for all I care.
Yeah, about that…
This guy is definitely a bottom.
I drive a small 4 cylinder Honda. Gas mileage is amazing. If anything, gas is so cheap compared to groceries I’m thinking about getting a Costco membership even though I have to drive for almost an hour and a half. A week’s worth of groceries at Kroger is almost $100 for one person. It costs me $65 to fill up my gas tank which lasts me 2-3 weeks. I might as well just drive the extra distance and buy bulk.
Kind of a nothing article, but I say just let them cook. Baldur’s Gate 3 was the game that pushed them into the spotlight better than any game they’ve made. And now people are going back to play their old games and realizing they are great games in their own right. They opened up a genre of gaming to people that would have never even considered it. You can’t accomplish all that without feeling an immense amount of pressure. Even if the next game isn’t on par with Baldur’s Gate 3, I’m just glad they are still doing what they do.
I’ve never played it, so I wouldn’t know. I’m just going off friends that play it and reputation.
Same with No Man’s Sky. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but they buckled down and delivered on almost every promise that they failed on back at release. Not only that but every update since the game came out has been for free. Both No Man’s Sky and Cyberpunk are fantastic games, and they were garbage on release. Bethesda has been doing the opposite approach and avoiding feedback from fans since Skyrim came out the first time.
So if a robot commits a war crime, they can just blame it on AI and call it a day, right? Sounds like an easy way to do whatever the fuck you want.
“Famous AI ‘Prompter’ Says He’s Losing Millions of Dollars From People Stealing His Stolen Work.”
Seems like you did this to yourself, bud. You’re just mad you didn’t get paid enough for stealing.
The first thing I always look for whenever I see new integrations for AI is what they say it can do. And every time I read it I’m not surprised to find out it’s just buzzwords and non-features. And even the features it does list, bots have been able to do for years with better results. I’ve had better luck with article summarization bots on Reddit than with “AI.”
And they’ll keep getting away with it as long as corporations are treated better than actual people. And you know they put shit like this in the agreements because they know nobody reads them. And every time we get complacent or blame someone else, it only gets worse.
I just like watching the couch sex guy say silly things. I just wish the things he says didn’t have real world consequences.
Gross.
It’s because the games are mid or worse. Took me one google search to find a plethora of games released in the last few years that had high budgets and sold very well. God of War: Ragnarok, Ghost of Tsushima, Elden Ring, Horizon: Forbidden West, Doom Eternal, Hogwarts Legacy, Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, The Last Of Us Part II, and so many more. These are just the ones I played. Just because the only game you guys make is Fortnite after abandoning all your IPs and that your Epic Games Store money isn’t as high as you thought it would be doesn’t mean other people aren’t making amazing games. It’s just you, my guy. I consider myself a patient gamer and I’ve bought more full price games over the last 5 years than I ever have.
It’s more about accessibility. It’s not like they make the games anymore and the emulators they have on the Switch are lackluster. You could buy shit on eBay but if it’s a super niche game it’d probably cost a lot of money. Money that doesn’t go back to Nintendo. It’s not like they’re going to lose money for someone playing a super rare game on an emulator.
So… Almost every single video pre switch besides speed running videos? Where the fuck else are they supposed to play them? By the time “let’s plays” we’re popular on YouTube we were in the time of the Wii or even passed it. And even if they didn’t emulate, they’d have to have bought the console off eBay where Nintendo makes zero money from the discontinued consoles. This is literally just control for the sake of control and it’s why I hate Nintendo.
We’re all against Windows. Fighting amongst ourselves is just gonna turn more people off Linux which is the opposite of what we want. If you’re trying to get people to switch, the last thing you should do is shame them immediately afterward. They’ll just go back to Windows where there’s less of a stigma.
The idea of calling it “natural gas” was literally just a selling point. It’s basically just naturally occurring methane which we all know is significantly worse than CO2 as a green house gas. And when it leaks it’s virtually undetectable without the right equipment. There have been multiple instances where natural gas just straight up leaks out of a facility and doesn’t get noticed until weeks or even months after the fact.
