Some people just want to fight because social media conditions us to be outraged and angry.

I once knew someone that claimed to get gStreamer working, I think they were just bragging.

If you’re going there, there’s also VR porn. If you see someone on Steam playing DeoVR, they’re watching SLR.

Index is great, I don’t regret buying it at all.
Half Life: Alyx made me ‘get’ VR. I look forward to future AAA releases.
I haven’t tried Skyrim VR. I did not know that was even a thing until now, thanks!
Here’s some recommendations in exchange:
VTOL VR is DCS where you don’t need a 50 hour tutorial to start the jet or $1200 in control hardware and head tracking (just a $1000 VR headset!).
Iron Rebellion is still early access/in development, but VR is begging for a good mech shooter and they’ve been making steady improvements.
XSOverlay is great, basically lets you access windows from in-game (I pin my Signal client, for example) just by rotating your wrist like you’re looking at a wrist watch. It’s a good way to get access to media controls/see who’s at the door without going through the process of getting out of the VR setup.

When you said ‘the left’ they assumed you were a right winger, stopped reading and started with the bad faith nasty arguments.
Triggered, I think is the term.

On the plus side, we get some more IRGC trolling and lego videos, which is good because I can’t afford to drive anywhere or buy food.

- Comment on What does DLSS do, and what's up with DLSS 5? 1 month ago:
It makes games run worse and look horrible because devs now target dlss performance mode for 60fps on medium hardware.
That’s like saying new graphics cards make a game run worse because developers make their games targeted at new hardware.
You’re conflating two issues. DLSS uses upscaling to improve framerate the the cost of image quality.
The decision of developers is a completely different issue.

DLSS takes sane people and turns them crazy.

- Comment on Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash 1 month ago:
I don’t see the point in hiding it other than being somewhat petty.
The point in hiding it was that it was being used, without harassment or complaint, right up until he added attribution which resulted in an avalanche of complaints which require resources to deal with. Discord, the forums and Github pull requests now require much more moderation labor, which takes away from the project.
People had no complaints about the code quality until he started adding AI attribution. So he removed the attribution.
Like he said, if people can’t tell the difference until he started marking the code AI assisted… then they don’t actually have an argument and are simply bringing anti-AI politics into the project.
- Comment on Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash 1 month ago:
If there’s no difference in quality why obfuscate it? Why hide something that you think is a valuable tool if your code can speak for
The timeline was that he started adding attribution indicating the use of AI.
Then the anti-AI drones started bombarding the Github, Discord and forums with harassment. His recent statements and removal of attribution are entirely addressed at and because of the anti-AI people harassing the project staff.
He’s not removing it and saying ‘fuck you’ to the users. He’s tired of being harassed by third parties who are not involved with the project in any way and so he removed the source of the harassment.
- Comment on Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash 1 month ago:
I agree.
If you read the anti-AI comments you’ll find that when they say ‘AI’ they mean ‘LLMs fine tuned to be chatbots’ and ‘Diffusion models which generate bitmaps or video files’
They’re seemingly ignorant of all of the other things that Transformers and Deep Neural Networks are used for.
Remember how there were all of these projects trying to crowd source an algorithm to fold proteins given an amino acid sequence? Well, a trained neural network ‘AI’ called Alphafold was created and it can complete the task with >90% accuracy. THEN, using a network like AlphaFold another group of scientists made a diffusion model that could be prompted with protein parameters and then generate the string of amino acids which would fold into that protein.
I find it hard to believe that the ‘fuck AI’ crowd understands that ‘AI’ is completely separate from the capitalist frenzy over chatbots and image generation. The vast majority of their complaints are not about the technology, they are about assholes who have a lot of money that are abusing and overhyping the technology in order to get more money.
- Comment on Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash 1 month ago:
It seems like you’re glossing over the fact that he was including authorship until he was targeted with a harassment campaign by the anti-ai nutjobs.
He removed authorship in response to being harassed. His point was that including authorship has only led to harassment which takes resources away from the actual project. If a person can’t tell that the code was AI generated with out a ‘Generated by Claude Code’ tag then their complaints about AI’s quality seem to fall flat.

Out of many more ethical models out there, why go with that one specifically?
Because it is the better tool in the usecase that he is engaging with.
You’re setting up an impossible standard, one that you don’t follow yourself.
You know that Social Media is used to spread propaganda throughout the world, leading to hate crimes, genocides, wars, sexual exploitation etc. You’re still using social media. There are many more ethical ways to talk to people, why go with social media specifically?
All you’ve discovered is that there is no ethical consumption under capitalism. You can take anything that a person does and trace the supply chain to find examples of wholly immoral behavior. Unless you plan on living in a cave, you’re going to appear like a hypocrite at the very least if you start picking apart the choices of others under that lens.
- Comment on Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash 1 month ago:
A rational person would question why they have beliefs that, when confronted with evidence against those beliefs they believe the evidence is wrong and not their beliefs.
It could indicate that the person’s beliefs are not built on rational grounds.
- Comment on Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash 1 month ago:
That’s twisting the order of events.
The developer was marking code when AI was used.
Anti-AI drones started harassing him in Discord, the forums and Github PRs
The developer stopped marking code when AI was used.
The Anti-AI assholes are not participating in development in good faith, this is a harassment campaign. He’s taking steps to mitigate the harassment.
The fault and blame here is entirely on the people who thought it was okay to dog pile on a volunteer developer.
