  • Imo their style of writing is very noticeable. You can obcure that by prompting LLM to deliberately change that, but I think it's still often noticeable, not only specific wordings, but higher-level structure of replies as well. At least, that's always been the case for me with ChatGPT. Don't have much experience with other models.

  • What I would expect to happen is: their posts quickly start getting many downvotes and comments saying they sound like an AI bot. This, in turn, will make it easy for others to notice and block them individually. Other than that, I've never heard of automated solutions to detect LLM posting.

  • AI imagery looks like shit. But that is its main draw to the right. if AI was capable of producing art that was formally competent, surprising, soulful, they wouldn’t want it.

    Among many artists I'm subscribed to, there are few who specialize exclusively in AI art.

    Here's my current favorite:

  • My favorite is: if you disagree, you can always just go to another instance or even create your own. Other than that, I like how, instead of a total score, posts show likes and dislikes separately. This is more of a technical thing than a cultural one, but it has a big impact on making brigading less effective. In general, all these technical decisions make Lemmy very friendly to a variety of cultures and people from across different spectrums of political and other opinions.

  • There could be alternative to state with its own police. If alternative to state is some kind of unions/syndicates, it could mean, there are, for example, Team Space (Union of Spaceship Institutions + some relevant Universities and Industry Manufacturers) and Team Earth (Union of Agricultural Manufacturers + Farmers + Union of Solar Energy Organisations) represented in the same city. Each of those have their own police funded by their own taxpayers. There could be many such "teams" in the same city, and they together manage infrastructure and security in the city. I think it's important that those teams are kind of "omnipresent", meaning the same team is present in many locations throughout the planet. For example there could be multiple dozens of such teams, and each city on the planet is run by some combination of those teams, which depends on variety of cultural and economic concerns and interests of such teams.

  • There are still people so powerful they manage to use Windows XP in this day and age. My intuition says most people will be able to use Windows 10 for at least one more decade with minimal issues, after that it will gradually become trickier, but it will still be usable even in 20-30 years with advanced hacks if humanity doesn't go extinct by then.

  • Oh man I love how much I have to manage my inventory in this game.

    I'm currently playing Skyrim and I kinda dislike fast travel after Morrowind. It felt more interesting to figure out the best way to quickly travel from point A to point B because that involved mark/recall, mage guild teleports, propylons, silt striders, boats, etc. It was interesting logistics mini puzzle, and some of it you had to plan before traveling somewhere, (like the best place to cast "mark" spell). I guess inventory management can be like that too, it can come in different forms like having to play tetris with inventory slots in systems like Diablo, or balancing carry burden between companions in your party in games like Skyrim, or deciding between extended herbalism bags vs smaller general purpose bags in games like World of Warcraft.

  • Sure, I sometimes prefer simpler systems too. It depends on what I want to play currently. I'm more trying to say we need all kinds of games. Imo, complexity and flexibility of all those systems, like character stats, perks, inventory, etc - is what makes "RPG" an "RPG". If you take a bit of it away it becomes an "ARPG" like "soulslikes" and other similar games. If you take even more of it away you get "slasher", "3d platformer", etc. I'm a big fan of ARPG and 3d platformers like Spyro or Soul Reaver, but it's totally different kind of games.

  • Interface looks very similar to SkyUI 🧐

    Those features though, I hope other RPGs consider them carefully:

    • You can send items from inventory to your home base with a single click
    • Consumables don't weight anything so you can carry infinite potions

    This is just way too casual/reductionist imo. At least make some mechanic that justifies sending items. Like an item teleportation spell or something. Imo it's okay if some RPGs will be as convenient as this, but asking for every RPG to be like this is just too much.

  • I personally never hated it, I just prefer Steam, because it has stuff like dedicated game workshop, forums, screenshots, achievements, cards, etc. Even when I got something for free in Epic Games Store I would later proceed to buy it in Steam and play there to have all those features.

  • I'm using Proton VPN all the time with Reddit, servers from all over the world: Europe, Asia, Africa. I have 365 day streak achievement on day 320 today, so at least those past 320 days I've been using Reddit with Proton VPN every day (I also have killswitch permanently enabled). Also used two other lesser known providers years ago with no issues. Keep in mind though, I'm only ever using paid servers. Wouldn't surprise me if those few free ones are banned everywhere. It takes one user to misbehave from IP to get that IP banned.

  • I've been using Reddit with VPN for years. Not sure about registering, but using existing accounts with VPN works just fine. lemmy.world allows to register but doesn't allow to post with VPNs, this is also one of big reasons I don't use that instance.
