they didn't really have the cards. usa doesn't wanna give immunity? no experiment results. what are they gunna do? have another genocide just for science? it was literally the only chance for this information, and they had to give the worst humans that ever existed immunity to get it. it sure is a fucked situation and really makes you think. what god?

i tried that one time. it was the only time i tried to use AI for something actually useful that i needed. i wanted to write some simple JavaScript that would rapidly flash 3 equally sized images on the screen of a handheld linux machine. the AI provided a list of instructions of software and other prerequisites i would need. after installing everything and entering in the code provided into the software, it immediately started yelling warning signs at me about the code. nothing ran. it was all useless. it felt like talking to a paranoid schizophrenic. the ai was so sure of the code, and insisted that i must be making a mistake, and kept apologizing and providing more useless code. it was literally just like talking to a paranoid schizophrenic at a bus stop, insisting all the crazy shit they're saying REALLY makes sense, if only you'll let them explain it to you further.

what trash.

great. sit in a locker and wait for 20 minutes at a time, now in VR.

i just started streaming this game today after avoiding nearly everything about it, and WOW!! so good already! something this good only comes out once every 5 or 10 years, assuming it keeps up at the same quality of everything I've seen so far. I'm only 4 hours in but very impressed by basically every category you can look at a game. and the entire premise being a hyper focused allegory for mortality itself that we all face is very clever, even if very bleak. i can't wait to see where this game goes! if you wanna watch me on the expedition, hit up https://www.youtube.com/@crustyoldhuman https://www.twitch.tv/crustyoldhuman

wasn't yakuza 0 itself already basically a directors cut compared to the original yakuza? what even is this. fuck off.

i already know how to cut an avocado, i was saying these directions are not great at the one specific area people have trouble with, the pit removal. the graphic and instructions do not help and are confusing unless you already understand the method. "firmly embed the blade into the pit by hitting it downward with your palm, then twist the pit out once it's attached to the knife" is more in line with what they need to hear. not "wack knife with heel of palm and twist" with a photo of a knife simply hovering above an avocado. if you don't already know what to do, this is not helpful.

it's just an astrolabe. a very old one sure, but it's always silly to me seeing all the various descriptions of this thing in these articles over the 20 years or so I've been seeing it posted. it's not a computer either. or a calculator. it's just a very old astrolabe for navigating at sea.

the most confusing part of this process is no clearer in this graphic. "wack knife with heal of hand and twist" and all it shows is the knife sitting on top of the pit? wtf does "wack knife with heal of hand and twist" mean? where do we wack the knife? twist what? the knife?? god i hate this post

i agree i immediately do not care about franchise products these days

i promise you'll be able to trace her ass crack through her jeans

did you live in a different 2006 than i did? i was 16 and kids dressed like this:

Minnesota resident here.

.....bummer. wow. what a blow to literally everything everyone has worked and suffered for since George Floyd.

rip.

35 years old and this is one of the most overrated franchises I've ever touched.

welcome to being older

but the regular citizen tracking programs? those are still there

this makes me so mad

it's not a pacemaker though, it's a hammer. and sometimes the head flies off a hammer and hits someone in the skull. but no one disputes the fact that hammers are essential tools.

you're getting down voted because you accurately conceive of and treat LLMs the way they should be—as tools. the people down voting you do not have this perspective because the only perspective pushed to people outside of a technical career or research is "it's artificial intelligence and it will revolutionize society but lol it hallucinates if you ask it stuff". This is essentially propaganda because the real message should be "it's an imperfect tool like all tools but boy will it make getting a lot of certain types of work done way more efficient so we can redistribute our own efforts to other tasks quicker and take advantage of LLMs advanced information processing capabilities"

tldr: people disagree about AI/LLMs because one group thinks about them like Dr. Know from the movie A.I. and the other thinks about them like a TI-86+ on steroids

i imagine this would be fun once when novel and then very irritating every other time

Voices of the Void on Itch.io. it's sort of like xfiles: the rpg. you live in a satellite field and you use old equipment to track suspicious signals from space and sell them off for upgrades and supply money. Things.... happen. while you're carrying out this peaceful existence. suspicious, freaky things. 🛸

it's been out for a couple years now and it's very far in development but they are saving the steam listing for a more full release.

edit: go into this game blind
