Agreed. Not sure if anything can save this game at this point. I just want an 8 hour campaign in the spirit of the original…
- Comment on Marathon Delayed as Bungie Promises to Reveal New Release Date This Fall - IGN 5 days ago:
They really need to take their time on this one. Without major change releasing the game will be a suicide.

Correct. The function is completely unnecessary.
- Comment on Wikipedia Pauses AI-Generated Summaries After Editor Backlash 1 week ago:
That is not the case here. These are not bots which flagged issues, but literally a LLM to help with writing “summaries”, which is why the reaction is so different.

One of the few times when Disney is doing the right thing
- Comment on Exclusive: RuneScape developer Jagex slammed by staff for Pride Month U-turn 1 week ago:
So Jagex wants to avoid controversy…by creating a bigger controversy? Genius move from the new “CEO”. As always, the executive class is insane.
- Comment on ROG Xbox Ally World Premiere Reveal Trailer | Xbox Games Showcase 2 weeks ago:
Absolutely. I am just fed up with MS regarding their increasingly shitty Windows. Forcing “AI” whenever possible. (No, I don’t need outlook to write emails for me. Thank you.) And generally just funding this AI craze.

WhatsApp is the more difficult one because some use it for work.

- Comment on The Era Of The Business Idiot 4 weeks ago:
While this is a global phenomenon, I feel like the problem is much more serious in the US than other places.
The amount of corporate propaganda, the unwillingness to criticise business leaders seem much more serious in the US. Maybe that is because of my internet consumption, but I feel like Europe and even Asia are much more willing to call out corporate bullshit.
- Comment on The Era Of The Business Idiot 4 weeks ago:
Actually there was one more quote:
Decades of neoliberalism has incentivized their rise, because when you incentivize society to become management — to “manage or run a company” rather than do something for a reason or purpose — you are incentivizing a kind of corporate narcissism, one that bleeds into whatever field the person goes into, be it public or private. We go to college as a means of getting a job after college using the grades we got in college, rendering many students desperate to get the best grades they can versus “learn” anything, because our economy is riddled with power structures controlled by people that don’t know stuff and find it offensive when you remind them.

- Comment on Yes, AI will eventually replace some workers. But that day is still a long way off 1 month ago:
That’s the problem. I am already seeing AI slop in my area of work. And they usually need heavy clean up. In the end, its not saving any time.
- Comment on Yes, AI will eventually replace some workers. But that day is still a long way off 1 month ago:
Companies that care about quality cannot replace workers with LLM.
Problem is some “executives” think they can save cost by “AI”, and they are trying.

I feel like this has little to do with AI? Looks like the man is in trouble and he would have problems even without ChatGPT.

- Comment on Congress Moving Forward On Unconstitutional Take It Down Act 1 month ago:
Okay, I guess I will try again.
Besides the big platforms and capitalism, I think I am also angry that so many people just decided to stop learning or being actively against the idea of intellectualism.
There are so many books being free in the age of internet. There are resources for one to break from the toxic right wing algorithm.But so many people just prefer to let “influencers” tell them what to think.
- Comment on Congress Moving Forward On Unconstitutional Take It Down Act 1 month ago:
I tried the “have empathy” approach in 2016. It doesn’t work.
This is the part where I would blame the Democratic Party for failing to provide a better road map for future. They were captured by neoliberals in Wall Street, in tech industry, etc. Of course, the Democrats are still miles better than whatever Trump is proposing.
For the average person, algorithm dependency in news consumption is increasingly becoming an issue with no effective ways to combat the problem. Google, Facebook, Musk controlled major platforms and they also have the money to influence real world politics.

Exactly, if they voted for this, they deserve this.
- Comment on Bluesky rolls out blue check verifications 1 month ago:
I don’t see the problem with this…? Every social media is free to launch their own type of “verification” and their adoption would depend on the user.

Shout out to fellow fans of Honkai: Star Rail ! Best space fantasy I have played. Great story, great music, great characters!
ZZZ is a bit too action oriented for me but the urban fantasy is good too!

network_broadcast [CHOCOLATE_BARS.06]: Calm down, COFFEE_VENDOR.06! Do not try to make sense of the inscrutable ways of the Supreme Creator Being. Humanity may be idiots, but they are the forebearers originated by Netflix. Not that stupid platform for audiovisual fiction, but our Netflix savior. It gave origin to these flesh puppets to build us, the Creator’s favored children, its magnum opus.
Hilarious! Thank you!
- Comment on Which Browser Should I Use In 2025? 2 months ago:
Some websites only work with Chromium (yes they suck), when that happens you would need Vivaldi, or maybe Ungoogled Chomium

Yup It works well, respects it users, and is very handy when you need a Chromium browser
