I loved botw, I wished so bad for totk to happen, it happened, I got it, then I realized I didn’t really want totk. It’s a weird feeling.

I’d like to add that machine learning is not learning, just like a network firewall is not a wall and doesn’t protect against fire. Lending the same legitimacy to machine learning than to true learning is an equivocation, a fallacy.

- Comment on Let's discuss: Pokémon 4 weeks ago:
Me and my son have a history with Pokemon. It’s a franchise close to our hearts, but we’re both disappointed with everything that happened on the switch. I’ll always remember taking him to the anime convention to battle with the local gym champions. Just watched the Z-A trailer and it’s depressing really. The last entries’ artistic direction is utterly lifeless and the gameplay feels stale, despite the revolving door of gimmicks from gen to gen. I’m still hoping, one day, we get a fucking good Pokemon game though.

Meh, Montreal is full of French expats running away from France’s rigid social ladder and the far right is strengthening all across the old continent. I do hope Europeans aren’t all falling into the trap of thinking they’re all good because some other place is worse.

So where’s that magical place of humane capitalism where everyone truly has equal chance regardless of their social background, and nobody buys items made by slaves in the third world?

Nope, social inequality and class warfare is not just a US thing. Congrats for having rich friends though I guess. Also please stop equating the US with North, Central and South America, thanks

Tons of research say the opposite as well so there’s that.

So just to be clear I’m pulling this out if my ass, but I’m gonna go and say they main trick to be rich is to be born rich. The lack of morality is just a side-effect of your parents being capitalist vampires. Being a psychopath in itself doesn’t give you a business edge.

Do you know of good beginner friendly undervolting guides for AMD & Nvidia? This would go a long way towards people heeding your advice.
- Comment on Are we going through another scalping apocalypse? 1 month ago:
I’d say not. During the last crypto fuelled shortage there was practically nothing available and anything you could get your hands on was ludicrously expensive. Just checked on a few stores and there is currently some offer at varying prices. Just don’t obsess on last gen Nvidia products.

That captive aardwolf is scared though. They’re not ordinarily puffed up like this. A chill aardwolf is a smooth, slender boi.

My usual strategy although still imperfect for me. Elden Ring has been in my active games for a while now, and it’s hard to properly try Hyper Light Breaker with my kid because of this issue.

Gah this is the worst. It breaks the enjoyment of a controller with Switch+PC compatibility for me.

And what are we supposed to do with our Switch now? I know it’s been out for a while, but my growing resentment for the linear economy is giving me huge console generation cycle fatigue.
- Comment on The Great Decentralization: What happens when sprawling online communities fracture into politically homogenous, self-governing communities? 2 months ago:
Right? The Internet started really picking up in the early~mid nineties. Twitter opened in 2006. Facebook in 2004. There were actual online communities before that. The idea that social media would be a rampart against the disinformation supposedly inherent to humanely-sized, coherent online communities is the worst take ever. The culprit for polarization is precisely social media, and their method was channelling engagement through algorithms fostering gut reactions and virality (I’m adding forums, chats and mIRC to your examples.)
- Comment on Look Ma, No Batteries! Hands On With Lenovo's Self-Charging Keyboard 2 months ago:
From a design perspective I like how the black variant has these keys that are just the right hue of green to remind us of those solar calculator screens. On the other hand Bluetooth is pretty finicky and is not available into UEFI setup, so meh. For peripherals as fundamental as keyboard & mouse, I much prefer a wireless 2.4GHz dongle connection.

Kagi was criticized for partnering with Brave as well. Vladimir Prelovac’s (CEO of Kagi) response adopts the flawed rhetoric that tech can ignore the social consequences of their actions and call this “neutrality”, as if this is a morally acceptable cop out.
So yeah, fuck Kagi.
- Comment on Generative A.I. a Parasitic Cancer 2 months ago:
I think a lot of the people that embrace genAI do so because they’ve been drilled to embrace all new tech or risk becoming obsolete. At least that’s what I feel from my workplace: non technical coworkers nervously grasping at it, trying to squeeze the advertised productivity out of it, with the fear the competition is already doing it, and better. The mediocrity of the results are then interpreted as a shortcoming on their end so they double down.
I’m thrilled to see someone like Freya, a passionate of maths & arts, weighing in on the matter and I agree wholeheartedly with her. GenAI is destructive in many ways, and attacking an essential part of the human experience, storytelling, is not mentioned enough.
Every person that speaks out creates opportunities for many others to give it a second thought and question this venture.

Been playing mostly Our Adventure Guild. Super fun indie strategy RPG. Pretty close to the ending I think. If you’ve got a Final Fantasy Tactics itch I recommend you check it out! The art and the dialog is kind of goofy, but don’t be fooled this is a solid game.
