That’s a very dark take, but not wrong, unfortunately.
- Comment on Dev at id Software says Microsoft 'burned a lot of bridges' in the industry: 'They fundamentally don't understand art, they don't understand games' 1 week ago:
Even if it’s not their core business focus, I feel like having such a significant presence in a market has a lot of value for them. I don’t think a sell off would be a good business move. Part of large it strategy is wide prevalence so you can’t get around it. Onboard and catch into the ecosystem.
I don’t know how they see it, though. Your view/arguments also make sense
- Comment on Dev at id Software says Microsoft 'burned a lot of bridges' in the industry: 'They fundamentally don't understand art, they don't understand games' 1 week ago:
We need more technical devs and artists in leading roles. Even then, the time change can lead to behavior and view changes. But they remain much more founded and knowledgeable after having practiced and worked the art than any business, law, or management person could ever be.
- Comment on Meta Caught Paying Nazis to Post on Facebook 1 week ago:
The statement alone is already very problematic, but even worse when you put it next to their own written policies.
These pages and individual creators posted content that appeared to be in clear violation of Facebook’s own hate speech policies.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
I’m aware of extrinsic motivation vs intrinsic motivation, about the potential upsides and downsides, the potentially positive or detrimental effects of achievements.
I often do chase or consider achievements, but also explore games and their limits or what they cover anyway. I do like completing, especially if 100% is feasible. Other times I ignore them and focus on the game. If the game is not very captivating or interesting, I often don’t care much about achievements.
I did find incremental progression games interesting in how they make the extrinsic motivation, the numbers-go-up system, the core game mechanic. It’s interesting to explore and be mindful of how that can be fun, but in a different way than creative, exploratory, or story games. Of course, some mix both systems.
- Comment on At colleges, the AI boom means everyone wants to dabble in computer science 2 weeks ago:
Out of tokens; I’ll come back with a response next month.
- Comment on Open source project fools AI scrapers with poisoned font 2 weeks ago:
Ultimately, things like this may well change human behavior through changed LLM behavior.
Human language evolves through use and social context. People use LLMs.
Much like youth speak becoming mainstream, people may eventually use words or formulations inspired by LLM use.
- Comment on AI labs buy, scan, shred millions of rare books 3 weeks ago:
If they can publish a dataset of all of GitHub* then they can publish a dataset of all books.
* main branch head state, + some filtering and manual opt-out-apply logic
- Comment on A missing underscore sent innocent man to prison for 18 months 3 weeks ago:
I guess my software development practices are more thorough than the police and prosecution here. Rechecking and reaffirming the chain of evidence at least once seems like a minimal baseline and due diligence. Especially when your actions have such a high impact on other people.

- Comment on AI crash coming closer? South Korea’s Kospi plunges 10%, triggers trading halt 1 month ago:
It’s kinda crazy that (supposedly) the entire market is waiting for one company’s earnings data. Earnings that materialized over time, yet we’re waiting for a single publication at one point in time.
- Comment on Memdeklaro - A privacy-friendly decentralized identity framework 1 month ago:
Looks like a simple self-declaration. I choose a Nickname here on Lemmy?
In the current political context, “decentralized identity framework” implies/suggests something else IMO.
Being able to issue multiple IDs or change IDs is an interesting concept, but makes me immediately concerned about misuse. What are you trying to identify with these IDs?
Seems like it’s a simple persona declaration. Can’t do much with it alone in terms of trustworthiness or individual traceability or verifiability.
- Comment on Donkey Kong Bananza (Switch 2) 1 month ago:
I saw a speedrun of it, which was great
Varied movement and sequence breaks always make for a great speedrun to watch.
It got me interested in the game, but I don’t own consoles.

There’s stores for downloadable drm free music. Still waiting for that for movies and series.
It’s certainly not a technical issue.
- Comment on Social media policy is evolving beyond age limits 2 months ago:
In the current environment of mass profiling and mass surveillance through companies and government, the risk seems much more elevated than if they were not the case. Seems like a bad time to do such experiments in good faith and under positive impression.
- Comment on 340 Local News Outlets Now Blocking The Internet Archive 2 months ago:
Does the internet archive offer some batch downloading or something?
When I access the internet archive it’s slow. I would assume crawlers would scrape their websites directly, not via internet archive.

The three month start-cooldown to be listed in top100 was reduced to three weeks.
- Comment on SpaceX is worth less than half of its $1.75 trillion IPO target, Morningstar says 2 months ago:
They sell something like 5% publicly, and 30 or 40 %, I don’t remember, is for select people. They want to reward people that were loyal. This is corruption.
Add to that the various changes around the regulation. You don’t need 20% public offerings anymore to land in the top100, and they don’t have to wait three months anymore, just three weeks to land in the top100. That means various ETFs and other stocks will have to automatically buy in. Like retirement plans suddenly having to buy in to this overvalued money steal.
Pure corruption.
- Comment on "Nobody's making games for the retired people" – The growing yet underserved market for grey gamers 2 months ago:
I feel there are numerous chill games.
Really, there’s nothing against sticking to just one game one enjoys either. If they still enjoy Animal Crossing, maybe they don’t even need more games.
- Comment on Aggressive AI scrapers are making it kinda suck to run wikis 2 months ago:
They rent IPs, they can look like residential IPs.
I don’t know how these IP services work, but blocking them seems like blocking AWS - suddenly you didn’t just block telegram but various websites and services don’t work anymore.

Better use a remote robot for that
- Comment on Any good indie games on steam? Can be any genre. 2 months ago:
Exceptional free indie games on Steam. Sheepy has a great atmosphere. Unless is an excellent 2D platformer. Halloween Capybaras has great atmosphere and visual effects.
- A Short Hike
- A Hat in Time
- New Super Lucky’s Tale
- Webbed
- Yoku’s Island Express
- Mika and The Witch’s Mountain
These are what came to mind, as good ones, that I remember. I guess I’ll stop now. I’m sure if I went through my Steam reviews, I would find numerous more great indie titles as well.

What do you mean by private? If they’re non-self-hosted, then they’re not private by definition.
