I thought they did it already, or not them but some other band… Weird. I remember reading about the same LLM-like projection with portraits of people from their crowd + random comments.

What are you about? Did I misunderstood your original reply?

That was interesting to hear, thank you. I don’t have anything to reply as of now but a suggestion to make your posts a chain of replies. One comment - reply to it - reply to that: in that manner it would keep them in order next time you’d be open to write something.

You should go to ML ;) they will care.
It’s genuinely interesting to know. Your reply sounds bigoted and dumb. Is quokk.au the right instance for you?

- Comment on “I genuinely feel GameNative could replace handheld PCs like the Steam Deck” — Inside Android’s Fastest-Moving Gaming Project, GameNative (my article!) 5 weeks ago:
Reliable Android emulation of Windows’-compatible work programs is, too, a rather interesting niche. Laptop-alikes of tablets with a keyboard are popular in lower budget segment, and if they become viable replacements for desk job workflows, that may cause corpos to consider that.
Russia has a couple of Linux distros and companies providing custom compatibility settings and wine prefixes to set a client with all the ancient accounting software they are used to work in, so there is a market, but the one completely unprepared for Android devices being capable of doing it as well as desktops.
I’d suggest the dev to look into it because, I suspect, when the turtles of corpo world would take a taste of that, they may form a competetitive market of providing GameNative’s tooling to their clients in exchange for extremely beefy contracts, while outsourcing resulting errors back to them to fix.
- Comment on How do department stores decide the designs they want to put on T-shirts 5 weeks ago:
Sometimes I wonder about this too, since many of their pics look as random as your second hand store inventory. Many of them either look like random parts of past collections or designer’s portfolio, or a copyrightable copy of something they see as trendy today. E.g. the Michigan one doesn’t convey any message whatsoever but replicates the aestetics of said paraphernalia being popular on Insta, just like the slop engine would.
- Comment on Game franchises you like, but wish were anothet genre of video game? 1 month ago:
Yeah, it’d be cool to have a non-purely-fighting MK. Beat em ups and action-rpgs of Platinum come to mind. This could be neat releasing today.
After rather simple but fun cabaret minigames in Yakuza series I started to wonder if Fallout:NV could’ve had a casino management sim sewn in it’s storyline. Opening Tops to the public and operating it from the given appartments, finding staff, exploring the needs of Vegas’ visitors could have been nice to further explore the difference of life on the Strip vs the wastelands, even as it’s own game akin to Shelter.

- Comment on its actually worse bc ports are counted twice for 2.0 & 3.0 2 months ago:
Video. If there is something mindlessly excessive, it’s always video. And if you have tree leaves for budget, instead of slightly more expensive hardware controllers or PCIe cards that can combine multiple inputs and outputs, and do it right, you default to cheap usb dongles per device used, and compose them on software level. If you collect inputs from several devices and output these to something like displays on a scene, while also collecting audio from mics, DJ deck, and outputting these too, numbers add up quickly. This clownshow is further expanded by unreliable software, usb power, Microslop Windows in most cases - because pros use it or Mac, no penguins. I have no pride in greatly exceeding what some random PCs could predictably do, for fixing random errors here and there when USB and USB hubs hit their practical ceiling is just another level of Dante’s hell, for all us time- and harware-restricted tinkerers.

So having to redo that three times was… annoying…
You are in for a little trolling. Notice the moment when you see the opening title screen for the first time. You haven’t seen it yet (:
Game won’t let you miss anything or lock you from content for any reason. I can only suggest you to look out for materials you see in the wild, as you’d need a lot of them. Have a nice time with it!
- Comment on Xbox just revealed Gaming Copilot is coming to "current-generation consoles" later this year 2 months ago:
Idk. I’m criticizing it and am not a person to use it. If anything, I’d like to read human-made guides myself. But, yeah, if Cortana/CoPilot would do anything, it would be just a neuro summary of first links on Google that you can get by voice inputting prompts. MS has no technology to insert itself into every new game in any way but with this crude and slightly context-aware voice assistant.
- Comment on Xbox just revealed Gaming Copilot is coming to "current-generation consoles" later this year 2 months ago:
In a Hello Google kind of way, I guess. Creating a summary of existing web pages, hoping it would be somehow correct.
- Comment on Xbox just revealed Gaming Copilot is coming to "current-generation consoles" later this year 2 months ago:
I think that there is a niche for platform-provided guides like on Steam. They’d probably not be user-created on consoles tho because of a potential liability for what 69_gamer_420 wrote, but either game studios themselves or existing 3rd parties could’ve created a web app to serve their guides in the overlay or integrate these into the game itself (prerecorded ghost-players?). If it could have been put as a standard accessibility feature by Microsoft, I could see it happening. And I find it more probable than a genuinely helpful chatbot because of too many dependencies on context in each and every game. I’ve already got unasked advices on a few games that boiled down to using mechanics not present in exact games I was googling about.

- Comment on The Developer the Handheld Scene Depends On: An Interview With Gamma 3 months ago:
After an article on Songo#5 that one sounded a bit dry. Maybe that’s a side effect of prefering reliability over flashiness :) If there would be a second article about GammaOS, it wouldn’t hurt to flesh out the process down to specific challenges the dev overcame, just anecdotes evolving while testing and fixing stuff, or talk about how community members participated in the development of said project, what opportunities Gamma sees there. And, for a really unique kind of gear I haven’t heard of, I feel a bit puzzled as of what a second screen can bring onto the table when emulating single screen games, what other people came up with.
Btw, there’s a small typo in the Why the LineageOS? part, in image attributions concerning Fix/Fox person’s photoes.
