Look I don’t want to tell you your business, but to me this is less of an AI vs human thing and more about embracing yourself. I’ve had so much more joy from people’s dogshit drawings than I have from the AI stuff. There’s a heart and soul behind dogshit.

This is the best article I’ve seen in a while

Yep, that was exactly the reason.

There’s a problem in movies that I keep thinking about in relation to this.
Movies often use music from other movies in early cuts to get something rough together. They time the scenes around the music, they work with it for ages, and finally it’s time to make an original track to replace the rough copy.
But they have to use something that’s the same tempo, because of how the scenes were timed around the old music. And it has to fit in the same vibe, because that’s what the old music felt like.
So you end up with a piece of music that’s usually pretty close to what they made, and a lot of Hollywood osts sound almost identical. When I see people talk about using gen ai for placeholders and concept art, I see that same problem turning up.

All that’s between you and success is a consistent and reasonable performance, but seemingly everyone else in the world is too greedy to pull this off.

- Comment on Valve Addresses Steam Machine Anti-Cheat Concerns, Says It's Working Towards Support 1 month ago:
It kind of bothers me that people are putting the responsibility on valve for this, when the companies themselves have purposefully not enabled compatibility in most cases.

Might be permissions of whichever environment you’re running the sh in? Or potentially it wants that exact version, I’m only mildly competent at Linux at this point.

Yeah installed it a few days ago, super easy. It comes with a Linux/steam deck install guide.

I kept reading stairs but yeah both I guess
- Comment on Which year was the most stacked for game releases? 2 months ago:
Ditto this, 2007 was a fucking crazy year. All that next gen hit at once, people still taking risks on unique ideas. Nowadays you only see that kind of stuff from the indie scene, though they’ve been doing a great job with it IMO.
- Comment on People who live in southern hemisphere countries: do your mall Santas dress for freezing cold weather? 2 months ago:
Australia, yes we have regular Santa’s for the most part. Occasionally you’ll get Santa in shorts or whatever, but generally it’ll be the regular outfit. Santa coincidentally only shows up for a few minutes sometimes, then is called away on urgent business.
- Comment on Study concludes cybersecurity training doesn’t work 2 months ago:
I mean in that case it was running everything through a filter when accessing said links. Fair enough, but makes the training we did to verify links mildly pointless, and I don’t believe it was that good at filtering out phishing links either.
- Comment on What's your favorite case of a game making fun of you? 2 months ago:
In Disco Elysium the game straight up called me out for apologising so much. It hit me so hard I stopped apologising as much irl. 10/10 game would be ashamed again.

Fond memories to my last company, where every email had its links obscured in the email client, so you couldn’t even tell where they led before you clicked on them.

See I can tell you aren’t Australian because you didn’t say cunt once. But I respect the effort.
- Comment on Nearly 90% of Windows Games now run on Linux, latest data shows — as Windows 10 dies, gaming on Linux is more viable than ever 2 months ago:
Fair, good luck with it. Just had to figure out that a drive from a windows install was causing huge permissions issues and any game installed on it wasn’t executing. Sometimes the problems can be really obtuse.

You know about protondb already? Gives a good list of potential fixes if you come across issues, it’s been a godsend on the rare occasions something doesn’t work first try
- Comment on It is only half greentext, though amusing 3 months ago:
Oh for sure, but as someone on the other end of things, it’s mildly exhausting to keep managing social interactions, especially if I’m already tapped out. It’s not always unwelcome, but I’m very happy doing my work just chilling as well.
- Comment on this level is amazing 3 months ago:
Great set piece, mildly irritating execution
- Comment on Does it feel like the PS5's library is *severely* lacking compared to the PS4's around the same time in its lifecycle? 3 months ago:
I feel like given the amount of work required to make the kind of games that triple a represents, and the amount of money in and out, every game becomes a mess of different ideas and motivations with no unifying force. Every game must be everything to justify the price tag, but there’s no unifying passion or vision behind it. Of course the more you stuff in there, the more you can market it as well.

Chewing ice as well, supposedly it is motivated by iron deficiency.

I would be surprised honestly. Technology has stalled pretty hard, tariffs and hardware is not in a great spot, PS5 still looks great and honestly there’s not going to be much to sell a customer base. I could see them doing it, but it might be wiser to kick it down the road for a few years until things get a bit better, like they did with the PS3 and 360.

Hot take, but the pursuit of happiness is a sisyphian task. Humans can get used to any amount of wealth and plenty, it just becomes the new norm. You always need more and more, to the point it debauchery.

Yeah, exclusivity is dead, and games take half a decade to make these days.

Clair was much more of a vibes based hiring and management process. Crazy how letting creatives do their thing results in interesting content people want to experience.

Evil is a point of view, Anakin. The modders and the developers are identical in almost every aspect.
