  Unfortunately, the Lugoli bug is still a thing, after the patch. Saw it happen on a stream from before the patch, then got it myself a couple days ago.

  FYI, supposedly if it happens, you should close out and reopen the entire game, or it will continue happening.

  Every player I know had a lot of trouble with her, because they didn’t vash their head against the Craw gauntlet first, like I did, and get Silk Storm, which makes her ADDs laughable. And fair enough, I think the Craw gauntlet is supposed to filter you until well after Sister Splinter.

  The highly-anticipated sequel to 2017’s indie hit video game Hollow Knight. 2-time winner of “Most Anticipated Game” at the Unity Awards, and 3-time winner of “Most Wanted Game” at the Golden Joystick Awards. The most-wish-listed game on Steam, up until its release today.

  2.5 hours and counting. 🥲

  Sounds like maybe this is the “ranked mode” that rumors were going around about? Thank god, if so, the last thing this game needs is more incentive for players to be competitive against each other.

  Neat concept, it sounds like. They really are just using this game as an excuse to try every new idea they have, aren’t they?

  I tried it a few weeks ago. Streamed it from my PC to the living room, cause I didn’t feel like getting off the couch.

  It was better than I thought it’d be, but I’m not keen on doing it again, when I have KBM available. Tough to to say how much of the discomfort is just fighting my KBM muscle memory, and how much is “game fundamentally too complicated for controller”. I only had one REAL complaint about the way a particular button/input was mapped.

  A) And yet, not long after, Andor blew people’s expectations out of the water.

  B) Then stop making games exclusively based off of third party IPs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta used AI to concoct low-carbon concrete it poured for a datacenter floor⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This appears to be a rare proper use of machine-learning tech.

  No, they did not ask ChatGPT to whip them up a concrete mix. They (in co-operation with engineers) trained a mathematical model specifically for the task of predicting the performance of concrete mixes, in order to narrow down the number of mixes to do (time-intensive) real-world testing on. With a focus on also predicting the carbon-emission impact of the mixes.

  This is the kind of technology we need more of. Not LLM slop.

  Add a submission fee that gets refunded as part of the bounty payout, or if the reviewer otherwise judges the submission as obviously legitimate.

  Same concept as how Trump gave no written order for the Jan 6 mob to storm the capitol building, therefore he’s totally not responsible for it.

  Dude, you obviously have never set FOOT on a farm or tractor, in your LIFE. Stop spreading misinformation.

  These are raw marshmallows. Yeah, it’s unbelievable how big they are, but that’s just cause they’re fresh and haven’t dried out yet.
