- Comment on EA is shutting down BioWare and the next Mass Effect has been canceled 2 days ago:
Game companies are reading the tea leaves.
AI bought all the ram
AI bought owns all the GPU
Any Game can be decoded and rewritten in fresh code via AI for the tiniest fraction of a salary. It will eventually be able to do it with performance.
New IP could maybe, possibly be generated by some designer/artist types for the cost of a couple salaries.
The client is in the enemy’s (our) hands.
All games must go back to Gaming as a Service
We won’t pay for gaming as a service.
No new affordable tech is coming to drive the industry, all games will need to shift to online only, AI may get good enough to make games for pennies.
The only part of gaming that survives this is indie developers that push past making shovelware with AI. AAA is cooked.

I honestly don’t know how that translates. Based on the gravity of the wrongs and people seeming inability to stop on their own, I assumed it was more like an addictionm which would be a bit different than an affitinty for movies and places.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Yeah, I have no idea what the proper answer is. I don’t know if it would have a methadone effect or if it’d be treating an alcoholic with heroin.

The question is: (and we can’t have a viable safety study about it) If someone is interested and avoiding it, does feeding make it harder for them to avoid doing horrible things?

Adam has his own Youtube channel and has covered a load of 3d printing. When he goes to studios, he also covers what they do. He’s not covering the printing of other people work, but printing as a tool and an accellerant to your own making. He sseems to be fine with use for iteration and intricate parts.
Here’s where adam was 3 years ago on AI www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESSHjm0xbig

- Comment on Drink up 1 week ago:
My wife has a late-in-life diagnosed cow’s milk allergy. I’ve been experimenting with alternatives for 18 years.
There are often a small handful of substitutes that work for specific dishes. A vegan place near me makes absolutely banging DF mac and Cheese, Daiya flavored cheesecakes are 70% of what a real cheesecake is. None of the substitutes are catch all, most aren’t even catch-multi.
Country Crock (or many other brands) DF whipping cream is the closest sub I can find for things, but you have to be careful, it has a subtle sweetness in it that messes with things you don’t want sweet.
- Comment on Drink up 1 week ago:
By itself, it’s not noticeably different than water. The flavor is subtle enough that anything will overpower it. It lacks (but not entirely) viscosity.
Coconut milk makes a superior gravy texture as long as the gravy is strong enough to hide the coconut. You can make sawmill gravy out of coconut, but you’ll need to add garlic, salt and pepper to hide the coconut.
None of the _____ milks properly work with eggs.
Cashew milk has a great mouthfeel but separates when heated.
All that said:
The plant-based heavy whipping cream you can get from MOM’s Organic Market will absolutely work in sauces, gravies and even whipped cream. but it’s full of stabilizers to make it happen (which i’m find with personally)

Ohh, look at that, another website disappears from the net. Need to start taking any site that does that shit and spread it out on nomadnet
- Comment on Six Flags has installed one of the largest solar carports in the US - 12.37-megawatt - the annual power use of both the amusement park and neighboring Hurricane Harbor Los Angeles 1 week ago:
Basted on the east coast parks, the solar probably brings in more money than the park :)

Leak in the fuel system.
- Comment on It's insane that there’s no sound barrier on these stations 1 week ago:
This should make it feel more alien:
That station is in the middle of a 4 lane express way in both directions 90e and a 2 lane each way highway 90, which itself is wrapped on the outide with a 2 lane each way local arterial,

ohh don’t forget the manufactured marble and quartz blacksplash
- Comment on "What is the cost of lies?" 2 weeks ago:
That’s like saying MRSA is no big deal because millions of people die every year from bacterial infections.
They’re studying some outlier versions of an illness with a much worse outcome.
- Comment on "What is the cost of lies?" 2 weeks ago:
We have no idea what the cost of lies is because nowhere in the world is there a baseline of truth to clock it against. Russia’s biggest problem is that they let the info get out. This is FAR from the first time a country fucked up containment, you would just never hear about it.
- Comment on Anon isn't worried about population decline 2 weeks ago:
Booms have market opportunity, and busts have market opportunity.
That said, having too many people to do the work is a lot less dangerous than not enough people to do the work.
The bust comes with a high risk of a total economic collapse. Those houses get cheap, but food, sanitary, and energy security are at risk. Living in a rotting infrastructure is very different than living in an expanding but underdeveloped infrastructure.
Leveling out or a slow population decline would be good in some scenarios. If we’re going from 2.5:1 down to 0.25:1, you’ll end up with another boomer wave, pissed off at the government, ripe for scenarios that make today’s problems seem like an annoying party.

At this very moment, there’s nothing (obtainable) i want more than a nap.
work is wrapping up, kids need dinner, house is a wreck and we’re entertaining this weekend…
I’m jelly tom, I’m jelly
- Comment on What if? WHAT IF?! 2 weeks ago:
Parents are projecting when they do this. I hold this thing and it brings me such joy, here, you must feel this joy.
Many people without kids who have never held a kid at most feel a little curiosity at the new experience, but don’t feel that mass of endorphins that the parent or previous parent gets when holding a newborn.
Until I had my own, holding someone else’s kid was to appease them, not because it made me overflow with joy.
