Scary, this dude does more than 3 times as much stuff as me. I don’t even work on open source projects. I wonder how I’ll ever get a new job.

Reddit got more important once it Google ranked higher and the astroturfs found out, that people trust a review on Reddit inside a thread more, than multi million dollar marketing scam action, trying to game Google algorithm or other sites. The same will sooner or later happen to the fediverse if it ever grows. It’s unavoidable, sadly.

Damn, if only Spez didn’t have fucked up Reddit. I even wanted to invest in that IPO, but now I’m not going to.

Maybe they did ask ChatGPT but with the wrong question. Shit in, shit out.

You don’t need to reinvent the wheel. Simply add waiting lists and a max limit of one order per person. Sucks for large families but only until the initial hype is gone.

The best part is people complaining to them for pointing out that 8gb is laughable little. Ah, the sweet fanboys.

That’s why it needs to be an international project. Paid by every country together. Sure some will initially have to pay more but sooner or later everyone wants to be part of it and pay their part.

Thanks, I’ll check it out. I tried TorToiSe before but couldn’t get it to run.

So what tools did they use to create fake AI voice of her? Asking for a friend.

Only half, we got to push harder.

I’ve finished the game and yes, it’s price is too steep. I’d buy it half off. There’s some sort of replayability but it’s small and most might not do it. It’s still a fun game and highly recommend, but not for the full price.

Damn that’s scary sick. Let’s put the responsible on one of those dirty machines as punishment.

Soon Elon will pay users to keep using Twitter. Haha

That’s an interesting find.

🥵🤤🍆👅💦💦

Destroyable environment like Company of Heroes but modern rts setting.

Cities Skylines in the latest Unreal Engine.

Stardew Valley in pretty 3D graphics with no tile system. Valheim comes close but the graphics, while unique, is far from highly detailed.

Teardown multiplayer shooter.

General a lot of single player could use a simple coop that’s just playing the game together. It’s very rare that coop is more of an addition than a game focus. While often I just wish I could share the fun with friends together. It’s sadly because of the complexity of adding coop, vs rewards when it’s “just” the same experience but with friends, instead of a competitive like mode where they can sell skins and shit.

I personally always wanted to build a battle ship simulator game with crew system and destructible ships, with harsh survival elements like in the movie Master and Commander. Where you’re very close in the action and ships get real impact holes. Most indie games don’t come close enough on the realism level I’d like to see. Sea of thieves is somewhat there.

Faster than light - manage crew in a 2D strategy environment and jump around in space. Pretty unique gameplay which only recently got some clones.

Teardown - Work as criminal stealing stuff, but the clue is you can destroy everything and you need to create smart parkour to steal stuff right in time before the cops arrive. Also you can sandbox play it if you get bored.

Terra Nil - Bring back nature to a destroyed earth, with relaxing and calm mechanics. Highly recommend.

Others: FEZ, solve puzzles. Deep Rock Galactic, because dwarfs being this much dwarf is just dwarftastic. Rock and Stone!

Maybe a software lootbox. So you get a random surprise software, which is worse and more outdated than those on CDs you had glued to magazines.

This could become one of the best things ever if they do it right. I hope the cat stays silent.

They’ll try again. Be wary.

AI absolutely plays like a human as it’s trained by humans. The only difference is, AI will do the most optimal move, while humans might hesitate. That’s also the reason why it’s bad to put AI into fighter or bomber jets. The AI has a clear goal but a human might struggle to fire at an unknown target. Because the human has to life with the consequences.

DRM already only does check for validity every other frame or even minute. There’s no use in a game that just closes because it recognized a violation. You do know what causes Denuvo fps spikes? It’s whenever it checks. Of course the software got better by now so it’s less of an issue but it’s still there.

Look up RSA algorithms and project that to other mathematically complex DRM protections. You’re wrong because you don’t understand the tech.

In short.

Look up what AI does good right now, like finding complex solutions to mathematical issues a human couldn’t. Calculate stuff very fast, replicate natural language etc.

Look up what AI struggles with at the moment, like drawing hands or recognizing objects or driving a car.

This statement is only valid in this current state, as AI is advancing faster than most peoples mind by now. Most people have yet to understand LLM or generative AI models.

That’s what I’m talking about. If you look at the process required to crack Denuvo, then you’ll notice that there’s a lot of guesswork done, something the AI is good at if learned properly. The amount of people who know how to and are willing to spend time cracking Denuvo is shrinking by the day. The amount of software DRM encrypted is rising every day. We need automation soon.

AI will soon be mandatory for software security as malicious actors will use AI to find zero day exploits and you want an AI to protect you from those real time threats. Anti Virus software already work somewhat into that direction by now but there’s still much room.

AI is good in doing complex things but bad at doing easy things. Supervision is required at first for learning of course, there’s no AI that works out of the box.

We need to start creating an AI for that as soon this might get too complex for a human to crack.

Plus Nintendo Switch has Denuvo too now, creating even bigger demand.

Nintendo will be next to raise prices for their peer 2 peer. Lol

This game is just amazing and I hope it’s endgame content.

Could you use Virtual Boy on your TV without headset? Also barely anyone knows Virtual Boy.

I’m pro AI, I see a lot potential in it. I actively use AI daily by now, be it YT algorithm, AI image generation or chatbots for a quick search. But full automated AI with access to weapons should never be a thing. It’s like giving a toddler a sharp knife and you never know who gets stabbed. Sure humans do error, but humans also are more patient and will stop if they aren’t sure. It’s better to have a pilot not bomb the house instead of accidentally bombing a playground with kids, because the AI had a hickup.

Sounds exciting, would love to work there and see this all grow and help develop it.

New Super Mario,
Pokemon Stone Gray and Muted Olive,
Zelda the Minishcap remake.

VR mount headset will be the gimmick.

Name will be “Reality Switch” for VR and high resolution combined.

I see where you’re coming from but I don’t agree, well at least not anymore. I used to. Thing is, we reached a point for me personally where an old game doesn’t necessarily look bad anymore, as my brain will fill on the gaps, even as an adult. I can hardly do that with any of the really old games, as they lack polygons and details, but anything more modern is good enough. Art style is more important than graphics quality. And art style doesn’t exclude realism. The same way a real life thing can look good or bad, even though both have real world graphics if you so want.

I also don’t think it’s as easy as to make every game comic or pixel art, for some genre it simply doesn’t work as part of the gameplay is immersion in the world. Thankfully though we reached a point where even indie developer can use something like Unreal Engine or Unit to create high quality games. In future this will advance further thanks to AI animation, voiceover, textures and even models.

I just hate that I now need an account for every stupid instance there is, including keeping an eye open in which community is suddenly blocked. Tedious but at least them blocking is useless.

As if, all they are looking for is being able to add more bias. What they mean with security is, brand security. Companies are probably paying hard lobby money to have a backdoor into whatever large commercial LLM there is, to “protect” their brand. Read it as manipulating the general public to never have a single negative about a brand pop up whenever someone is asking for it.

My2cents but maybe I’m completely wrong here and it’s a different topic. Basic filters are already there and most stuff they have done in the last few months made language models dumber.

I have a hard time taking anyone talking about AI regulations seriously. Unregulated AI is already out there and you don’t get the ghost back into the bottle, it’s already working beyond all regulations and laws. Deep fake porn and the environmental cost, both seam to be things we need to accept, I don’t see them being worse than Crypto mining energy waste (which thankfully is slowing down) or already existing porn on the internet. Deep fakes make it even possible to have a deniability claim, once your real porn got out there, which is a positive thing as you could always claim it to be fake, reducing the possibility of blackmailing.

AI art, music are the things that will be replaced to large extend, as the results we have already are really good. Now human art will still be desired by some, but it will become rare and people will do this as hobby from now on. Thing is, good AI art as of now still needs a bit of a technical understanding and time generating, much less than before, but I don’t think this can fully go away, even if you add the names of an artist to a prompt. You need to understand a composition and the technical background.

Hard to predict the future, but creating something unique, the AI doesn’t fully know yet, is still challenging. Stuff like Stock photos, (thankfully) will be replaced, as anyone can just add prompts to generate generic images, and in future videos.

The writing part is the most concerning, as most nations lack an independent news outlet. For example in Germany we have the Rundfunkbeitrag, which pays for state independent news. It’s pretty resistant to fake news and as neutral as it gets, compared to the commercial news out there, who’s goal it is to generate outrage to sell clicks.

No matter what, there’s going to be a time, where too many people are not up to date yet, but we’ll also have enough people able to manipulate context via AI. People will need time to adjust. Only after this time of unrest most people will understand what’s true and important. Maybe it will have unintended effects we don’t know yet. What if conspiracy completely dies out as anyone can generate conspiracy text or anti-conspiracy text, making them all look like fools? What if we need more people fact checking and image/videos for error checking? What if we need more people who can understand the difference between a generic script and a good one? It’s like with machines, people used to do all the stuff by hand, now a machine does it, but we need more people who fix and control the machines. Yes it’s on a whole new level, the unemployment rate might be hit the hardest by this. The more we automatize stuff, the more we need to talk about UBC, unconditional basic income.

I hate

• quick time events,
• minimaps,
• questmarker,
• RPGs without story changing decisions,
• random generated loot (drop chance is fine),
• lack of class or profession decision (one character can do all sucks),
• random generated weapon/gear stats
• coop where process isn’t shared to every player. Requires a multiple saves system to allow single player, as well as coop play, saves.
• enemy level scaling with player level,
• fully breaking weapon without being able to repair them
• bound items. Seriously, this needs to stop. I’d like to share my gear with guild mates or my other characters. I want to be able to sell a good item again if I don’t need it. But so far only Ragnarok Online managed to do this well, that I know of.
• MMORPG with fixed marketplace, like fixed prices, build in price statistics etc. ruining a possible economy focused gameplay in favor of the lazy and dumb players, who complain… because they are not skilled enough.
• non MMORPGS with NPC that don’t move or have daily activities. Gothic did this so we’ll decades ago, I thought this would be standard by now
• any pay2win element
• any pay2skip grind purchases
• any quality of life wallet gated
• Battle-pass, season-pass, fomo bullshit

What I love

• weather and seasons
• music instruments, music class or weapons
• hidden treasures you need to dig for or find treasure maps
• NPC that have activities and are not glued to their vending table
• animal follower
• jumpsuit/glider
• destroyable environment/footsteps
• weapon degradation and maintenance
• professions and weapon/gear crafting
• alchemy like in Kingdom Come Deliverance
• NPC that tell you where to go, instead of a questmarker and path showing you where to go,
• able to respec my stat points only
• verticality in Level Design, like Dark Souls 1
• fishing with a bit of a challenge other than just pushing a button in time
• character customization, hair, skin, body size, height, voice
• fashion slots, like Terraria and now also Cyberpunk2077
• changing cities through actions I did in the game. NPC got killed, house destroyed/build etc.

My Google results change like the weather. Sometimes I can’t take it anymore and use Bing but quickly switch back as it’s worse. There’s no replacement yet, but you need more google Fu than ever before.
