Why even bother? If they’re gonna put them in a locked case so you have to go get someone to get one for you, nobody is going to buy them. Anyone that open with that sort of thing wouldn’t be shopping at walmart for that.

You know you can just turn off showing adult games again right? I’m pretty sure that’s a setting that’s off by default, but it’s definitely a setting.

All we can hope for is that after EA gets absolutely gutted, a bunch of new indy splinter studios spring up to use their development experience minus the corpo cash grabbery.

I’m not sure if the creator of this food crime should be forced to eat it all, or if we should burn it in nuclear fire before it has the chance to reproduce.

Yeah, no shit? LLMs don’t actually know or understand anything, the idea that a scientific paper was retracted means nothing to them, all the training cares about is the patterns of word usage. It doesn’t matter that some core part of the paper was wrong, it was SAID, and it is presumed to be grammatically correct.

This is a core reason why using LLMs as a search engine is fucking stupid, they don’t filter for what’s accurate, only what has been said before.

“There’s no such thing as bad press” is such a dogshit saying that is demonstrably untrue. There is absolutely bad press, just because we’re talking about it doesn’t mean it’s good for the product. For every one schmuck who thinks they’ll buy Borderlands 4 just to prove how good their computer is, there’s a hundred people who have decided never to buy it at all and half if them have written off gearbox entirely.

I don’t know where you’re getting the idea that people don’t care. People do care, a lot of people care a lot. Part of the problem is that people who want to act ethically and politely, people who want to minimize harm, are going to be at a distinct disadvantage when opposing people for whom the ends always justify the means, and the ends they seek are their own betterment above all else.

If your idea of action is sternly worded letters and peaceful protest, and my idea of action is violence and unabashed corruption of authority, you’re going to have a real uphill battle to dislodge me from any power I manage to gain. It doesn’t mean the corrupt assholes are unstoppable, only that their methods are more aligned with the acquisition and retention of power.

This guy is why PR consultants and Social Media teams exist. Some people just should not have contact with the public. However good he might or might not be in his work on the project itself, someone should have told him to sit down and shut up and let someone who knows how not to damage the entire game with a single statement handle the communication.

I dunno, if they were going to frame someone, they’d pick someone who would much more neatly fit their narrative of The Violent Left. The fact that this guy could even possibly be far right is a pretty good sign, I think, that they didn’t pick him to take the fall. That said, “DNA left on the trigger” sure is fishy as hell on it’s own.

The idea that ChatGPT, or any LLM, is aware of anything only indicates a fundamental misunderstanding of what LLMs are and how they work.

ChatGPT doesn’t know anything, it doesn’t understand anything, it is not aware, it is completely fact and reality agnostic. The closet it gets is incorporating a pattern of preexisting speech that correlates concepts. It doesn’t understand that cats are soft, it uses the statistical frequency of the concept of cats, and the concept of soft, being used together.

But also sometimes the bonus thoughts are too important to leave out but not important enough for their own sentence.

Soon they will reveal their latest invention, the Torment Nexus, from the hit Sci Fi novel, Don’t Create the Torment Nexus.

It would only be fair for a large portion of NASA to go to Germany.

Just waiting for them to push this for public schools only. After all, only “the poors” would send their kids to public schools.

I’m not sure which is worse, that my first thought was “Only nine?” or that my second one was “Four counts as mass?”

No. The first one was and still is a masterpiece, and it was made before Krafton ever got involved. If anything the contrast between Subnautica’s while success and 2’s abysmal failure would only emphasize how much Krafton sucks.

Same here. I was definitely going to buy as soon as it hit early access, I loved 1 and even liked Below Zero, I was as assured a sale as they get.

Not anymore. Blocked, blacklisted, and forgotten.

On a related note, did you guys know you can block a whole publisher on Steam from ever showing up in your feed? Click on the publisher’s name on any game they’re involved with to go to their page, and use the little cogwheel to the right of the Featured, Lists, Brows and so on buttons. You can ignore them, and poof, gone from your steam pages. If anyone deserves to be thrown into the pit like that, it’s definitely KRAFTON. Fuck’em.

It’s almost like their product consumes enormous amounts of energy to produce an output that isn’t actually worth much at all.
