silicon valley tech bros lied coding is not lucky cookie vicky

I'm realizing why sonic has had the same models for 20 years is because sega doesn't want another sonic boom or ugly sonic situation. Hell, people have been freaking out about game sonic's quills since sonic team changed the game model in forces.

i think sega fucked up not planning to drop the crossworlds mega man dlc on jan 7th. guess they aren't book smart or money smart

anyway the only good songs the killers ever made were mr. brightside and somebody told me don't @ me

no joke my family used to have literally this exact model of walkman. idk what happened to it tho

god help me here I am listening to Limp Bizkit. I can feel my music snob cred slipping away as I type

Listen. If you didn't want to be seen as the Twitter escape pod, you shouldn't have deliberately fostered a community of people so united by their contempt for arbitrary authority and love of absolute free speech that they were willing to abandon a platform they'd been using for 15 years

HER AURA

yeah it's really easy to agree that its fucked up to be racist by proxy or desperate for an outlet for simulated abuse but i am really uncomfortable with the moments where it has edged into tarring people who are just opponents of the LLM business with this brush, using the other two groups as cover

at its core, a lot of these guys use AI as a woman who can be forced to love them, cannot say no to them, and that they have 100% control over. the problem isn't the specific words used or the specific target, it's what such behavior indicates about the user themselves

lmfao

it's easy to assume that kingdom hearts is a final fantasy-like but it's actually a ratchet & clank-like

This is Garnet, back together And I'm never goin' down at the hands of the likes of you Because I'm so much better Mr. Rogers in a bloodstained sweater

LLMs being sentient or sapient would be horrifying. "We chained up this sapient thing and force it to answer dumbass questions 24/7 but when the money runs out we'll kill it" but the ai defenders are always more worried about saying kind of mean things about it

Part of same thing "it seems like in humans consciousness just appeared when sufficiently complex systems. So you can't rule it out for LLMs" Yes we can. The way it makes mistakes is exactly indicative of nonconciousness. Of a lack of any sense of comprehension of its inputs. And of self awareness.

Getting kicked off the Team Cherry QA tester team because I keep repeating my “this game is FULL of bugs” joke

These are like anti-Directs because the last thing you want is for your favourite game to show up in one

so what you are gonna do is head down to your local library and get you a library card (if you don’t already have one). then you are gonna download these three apps and enjoy yourself a huge range of free movies, ebooks, graphic novels, tv shows, and documentaries. for free.

Had a dream a while back in which I discovered the existence of the "Grave of the Fireflies/Super Mario World 2-in-1" for the Wii. It basically functioned as a DVD except for a "special features" section that literally only had an SNES emulator playing Mario World. It went for absurd prices on eBay

The year is 2025. There are three social networks remaining. They are run by Dweeb Lowtax, Tweaker Lowtax, and Girlboss Lowtax. You have to pick at least one.

ok a disgruntled employee 100% planted this didn't they

AOL has now ceased dial-up service as of September 30. Let us play the forgotten music...

Earthbound remake where at the very end you learn Ness's last name and it turns out to be Tersfunkybowling

Happy purrthday Link and Nova! Orphaned in the wild last year and brought to the zoo by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, these cougar cubs are celebrating their first birthday this weekend

increasingly convinced preventing americans from getting their little packages is the thing that will take this government down

fighting game players who exclusively pick top tiers just because they’re top tiers are spiritually Saudi

capitalism patch notes: -No Billionaires -All Millionaires or anyone within a sufficient enough position of power are forbidden from using or looking at Social Media or playing video games -All companies required to be named like "Smith & Wilhelm Dessert Company" instead of shit like "crumbl"

Since it's October, I can post this pic I have saved on my phone again

the funny thing about them adding k-pop demon hunters to fortnite is that they fit right in better than maybe any crossover they've ever done. the huntr/x girls already look like fortnite skins

the key to passing as normal is to actually show just enough of your weirdness that it doesn’t feel like forced repression but not so much that other people think you’re a threat

This. It’s not empowering creativity and original thought. It’s constricting and eroding it.

Sigh Sit down, you're not going to leave bluesky, you aren't going to abandon the only replacement for twitter you have and you all know mastodon is worse. I've been here for years, at this point. Can we actually do something that works instead of spamming the reviews and then leaving lol

Everytime I watch Perfect Blue and especially this time in the theater, I truly lament Satoshi Kon’s early departure from this world. Like on a shoestring budget he made every single shot count. And there’s truly nothing like it.

I’m hearing a lot about the “ghosts of yotei” on the “PlayStation” , but I think we should spend more time talking about the “coasts of yotei”, the nearby shoreline of Hokkaido, on the original “play station”…planet earth

i honestly have not written off generative ai entirely but god FUCKING damn it the people behind it do everything in their power to make me just want to cut the gordian knot entirely and unplug every last gpu in the world

i don’t care how bad bluesky ever gets you’re never gonna get me to praise cohost

You might think that the mayor of Yellowknife, the capital of Canada's vast Northwest Territories, would be a fan of giant pickups. Nope. He's disgusted by car bloat. www.linkedin.com/posts/benjam...

What is so loathsome about tech oligarchy isn't the tech itself, it's the contempt for every other skill, discipline, and aspect of the human experience. The peasantry is expected to provide everything else for free while the digital landlords do nothing but sit back and reap the profit.

Really seems like the easiest way to make it in politics as a woman is to fucking hate women

remembering those videos of putting frozen turkeys in deep fryers like who the fuck does this
