  • I scrubbed the video for the better part of 40 minutes. Here's the vibe. These points bounce off each other.

    1. AI everything. This is aimed at investors who don't know shit about games other than it has labor cost. Nothing novel was shown or discussed other than broad strokes of concepts which we already know about.
    2. Sponsors and Ads everywhere. To remind us it's EA
    3. Creating is bad business. EA wants:
    • to use AI, not artists
    • fleeting interactions, not deep experiences
    • sell platforms, not content
    • engage algorithmically

    They aspire to do to games what TikTok/Reels/Yt shorts did for video. Make it as easy to make a "game" (AI slop) as shooting a phone video. Let the algorithm bubble up addictive crap and get eyeballs on screens. Ads everywhere. Pay extra to make Iron Man a character in your 2-minute "game"

    This is a nightmare and I hope they fail

  • It's a bit involved to host the server but easier than most self-hosting services, in my opinion. Then there's the audio setup which I think is super easy for digital audio folk but may be a challenge for folks who haven't had to mess with digital audio much. The biggest thing people had problems with was turning off wifi and connecting via network cable. Reduced latency by leaps and bounds

    Like I said, video was a separate device for my playing so it was kind of a non-issue. Mixing and production in OBS is way over my head.

  • I'm not sure if this solves your problem, but it's an opportunity to plug Jamulus . It's FOSS, and one of the best solutions if your target is uncompromising sound quality/latency. Unfortunately, it doesn't do video. I've jammed with a band on it and was very successful. Vide was on a phone or separate machine. When we performed, video was mixed by another user using OBS, and streamed on Zoom

  • The episode aired in 1996, so it's 28 ish year old. The meme format is Super Smash Bros Melee which came out in 2001, so that's 23ish years old. Conclusion: feel old af

  • BS. This is exactly what Rump world wants. They love consolidation of power, Christian nationalism, and taking power away from non-white men. They are worried that centrist and moderate red voters will hear about it.

  • I went through your comment history and I think you pass the vibe check, as in, there's no reason someone should down vote by default. I think something is up but a bot targeting a random account seems weird. Which client do you use?

  • Veronica Explains brings Ms. Frizzle energy to learning about Linux and other open-source software. If you haven't seen her videos and want a positive, and begginer-friendly discussion of computing topics, take a look. She's really great.
