I prefer to call them LLMs (Large Language Models). It’s how they are referred to in the industry and I think it’s far more accurate than “AI”

Hot take but you’re right and you should say it. Being ‘anti-war’ is what has led to people to say that Ukraine should just give up and the US shouldn’t be aiding them in protecting themselves. Sometimes war is justified, though it should be minimized as much as possible

Uh funny timing but my desktop has been getting worse and worse recently until it just became unusable. Just opened it up to find that the liquid cooling for the CPU was leaking… I might have been neglecting my PC for a while. hopefully performance will be better once I get this fixed (and cleaned out)

Yeah I should probably add that it's the 12-Core M2 Pro. I'm pretty close to the top of the line for MacBooks right now but I am still very impressed that it delivers. Not to mention how quiet the fans are; if they run at all.

Absolutely insane that it’s running better on my M2 MacBook than my 3070 desktop

To be fair, money would still be going to Rowling. She is probably the most vocal advocate against trans rights and she has been cited in policies that endanger the lives of trans people. I think that is a much more reasonable boycott than being upset about pronouns

Can't answer the first two, but I started playing on PC with a controller since that's what people recommend. I found it too hard to aim especially when you want to be flying and dodging constantly. I switched to M+KB and vastly preferred it but there are people doing better than me with controller so idk

To be clear, I don’t think the ruling was that the output is public domain. The ruling was just that it isn’t allowed to be copyrighted

Looks nice but I kinda lowkey kinda despise this technology acting as a substitute for optimized graphics rendering. It’s gonna be necessary for full raytracing but idk it still just rubs me the wrong way

I think what it comes down to is how much you enjoy the freedom of the games. A lot of their games kinda just let you loose with a story that you can build over the course of the game, whereas New Vegas has a goal in mind that it is constantly pushing you towards.
Again, I don’t think either preference is better than the other. I just think they are two very different play styles that are suited for different experiences.

It sounds like you’re a fan of Bethesda games so I think this game will definitely be great for you.
Personally, I’ve really struggled to enjoy their games because they just feel a bit shallow for reasons that I can’t explain. They just don’t engage me at all. New Vegas was the only one that I completed and I think that is likely due to a difference in game design that I enjoy more.
I want to like Starfield and I will give it a try when it comes out, but I’m just worried it will leave me with an empty feeling like their other games do.

The burden of proof is on the poster to verify the story. I think it’s safe to say like 80% of stories on the internet are fake (what does ‘some missing parts’ even mean??)
I don’t doubt people have had similar experiences but greentexts are rarely true and this one sounds incoherent to me

You’ve gone back too far! I meant mid to late aughts (2005-2010)

It’s because a lot of people here are people who miss the earlier days of the internet and are trying to recreate that feeling. I’m not that old but it’s got me feeling nostalgic so I enjoy it

You’re giving the perfect example of the centrist mindset. I’ve followed American bills and laws being passed in the past four years and there is an objectively correct opinion on which side is better for the wellbeing of the people.
Republicans are constantly trying to repeal laws of bodily autonomy and workers rights. They are pushing for ways to gerrymander and make voting more difficult in Democrat areas. They have to rely on riling up their base with lies and fear-mongering because it’s all they have.
The democrats are more of a mixed bag but they are at least doing some things that actually help and improve the lives of the average person instead of actively doing the opposite.
But that doesn’t fit within the centrist framework because they are just too smart
sciawp 1 year ago • 100%
To be clear, I’m not American either. I just think that centrism reads as a lack of any principles. Especially when one side is blatantly anti-democracy.
More parties would obviously be better but that’s a difficult task to surmount.

You’re right and I have been considering this from the other commenter. It could be pretty interesting.
The only other consideration I’d have as a hobby developer is that it would be pretty expensive for a minor gain, but perhaps major studios wouldn’t have a problem with that

Every American ‘centrist’ I’ve seen plays constant defence for the far right. Idk maybe it’s just a coincidence but I’m not the only one who’s noticed it

I actually don’t think this is a good use for NPCs. There’s tons of videos of people just getting them to say the craziest stuff and I don’t think it adds anything to the game.
It remains far better to have a writer carefully constructing the world and the dialogue

I agree with you but I’m just gonna say with basic regex (hell, even without regex) you can easily find bad words without the problem you mentioned above.
Word filters tend to suck in online games and stuff because they have to navigate players trying to avoid the filter, which I think could still be improved with a little effort
