- Comment on Big Walk Used AI In 'The Final Stretch' Of Development, Kicking Off Intense Awards Debate 1 day ago:
imo, if llm usage is so slight or well thought that one couldnt detect it, i think at that point it could be ok. But if the llm used belongs to those big companies that are burning down the planet, then no amount is excusable. Its a tool, and if you can use it well enough it doesnt make the end product shitty then its good enough. Though even there the line is a line in water during storm. Whether llm usage is ok also comes to artistic integrity and that definitely cant be relied on when said artist can be fired for not doing as told. So better to err on the side of not using llm at all than risk it rotting something really important that cant be repaired.

Closest thing i have done recently is probably just watch someone play lobotomy corporation. And watched someone play “look outside” and read a lot of scp wiki a while back.

How i thought about is that knowledge of the threat lowers your chance of survival so they have to be vague

You could watch some lets play about it and decide based on that if its something you like. That is the best way to know about games without buying them first imo.
- Comment on Satan Was The Good Guy This Whole Time? 1 week ago:
God that would condemn anyone to eternity of torture is more scary thought than anything else. Maybe scarier than there being chance of being damned in the first place. Especially since it would mean that god is not good, forgiving or loving. To think that church would claim such thing as hell would even exist just proves that they have betrayed their mission for secular power. Got to have something to scare the people with so they keep obeying.
Though I think what it says in bible is that hell is that God doesnt protect you anymore, which i think could be conjectured to mean you are free prey to anything and everything or that existence without god would be just as bad. But that church hasnt set the record straight either also tells something.
I once had kind of crisis of faith and sought a priest to talk about stuff. I couldnt find one in the church of my former own religion (evangelic lutherian) so i ended up contacting someone from… i think its called “free church”, as I have a friend who is part of it and he seems quite sensible good to talk to about things. The guy ended up being rather horrible person (as in, he thinks what trump is doing is at least partly good) and it was quite clear all he cared about was to convert me to their cult. I remember questioning he existence of hell to him and from what i recall he answered, he said something along the lines that people have been focusing too much on god’s forgiveness. His meaning being there is too much carrot and not enough stick. It was many years ago and i dont have good memory to begin with, but I still remember the general sentiment. Funniest thing was that i had much better and helpful conversation in my own head before meeting the “priest”, with the mental image of the priest that i hadnt met yet.
It also doesnt help much that christianity is huge amalgam of different religions that have been destroyed and taken over. The whole world “hell” likely comes from norse god Hel and the concept from her domain (people who dont go to valhalla go to hels domain, i think. and valhalla being the “heaven” equivalent in eyes of christian priests as why they would try to understand other religions beyond how to convert people away from them)
I think the core thing from the true god, or whatever would be appropriate term here, has likely always been very simple and clear. Then over time more and more crap got attached to it to serve bigger and smaller goals for religious leaders. Maybe they thought goals justify the means, maybe they cared more about secular power or even didnt really bealieve what they preached in the first place but saw it as handy tool. Sometimes i also wonder if the potential evil thing that rules this world is actively working towards corrupting anything that could help people from being actually saved from here.

- Comment on What is behind the current Lemmy meme about 4 being a private key? 3 weeks ago:
I just dont understand why they would do this? Putting so shitty key is like they wanted to make it as insecure as possible. Even if the ones responsible were criminally stupid, they still should have understood that this is like leaving the whole thing unlocked.
And for such critical thing. Imagine if this wasnt discovered like this but instead by some competent malicious actor that had resources to coordinate some large scale attack and kept it hidden until just the right moment when they can strike at everything.
I also dont understand how little outrage there even is about this, we were really close to huge catastrophe. Or maybe i have misunderstood the severity of what happened.

When they got sold to ea, this was the only possible outcome anyway. Not sure if they sold out or ea did some corporate bullshit to force them to it, but they should have stayed away from ea if they wanted to keep making games.

- Comment on Alright I want to adress the AI moding because people don't understand how anything works and their is a needless panic. No AI won't replace modding. 5 weeks ago:
ai wont definitely replace modding. Vibe"coders" wont have any idea what the llm churned up for them so they will have no idea how to keep it updated, improve it or generally do anything at all with the generated content. Maybe the llm can do something if prompted, but it will just mess things up slowly. I noticed this effect when i tried to make some scripts, the llm would slowly lose the plot as it “comes up” with its own brilliant ideas on how to do what i tell it to do, then it hungs up on those ideas further on and everything just becomes a big mess. Only way i could keep at least some sense in it was by copypasting the entire code for it on every prompt and that is not very sustainable. Maybe things have improved, havent cared to use llm much for long time now.
But there is another facet to all this, if we dont keep showing distain towards slop people who dont know better will start thinking its okay and vast majority of people really dont know better. And should that happen, it will make things worse by devaluing actual work people put in. What people think shapes the world. So there is still some danger of llm taking things from us, but at least we can still do something about it. Just dont go rabid and blindly hate anything llm related as it will just discredit proper critics by association and actually support the slop.

I wish i knew, peaceful ways dont seem to do anything and violent ways can easily give the oppressors more excuses to make things worse, at least if you dont have good plans. At least it might lessen americas grip on the rest of the world.
Though then again, has any non-demoratic country succesfully turned things around? I dont really know if this is uncharted territory.
- Comment on just temporarily embarrassed billionaires, one good idea or lottery ticket from making it rich 2 months ago:
if its really majority then things would improve, no? Politcans would get elected that make these things happen?
Or if that majority is powerless to do anything, then they should cry out that america is not democracy so loudly that other countrys couldnt ignore it, provided that this majority actually cares and doesnt just wish things were better but conform with the regime and choose ignorance.
Talk is cheap, actions are what matter.
