We scoff at them both, but seriously pick one and get comfortable, looking reality right in the butt-cheeks is bad for the soul.

I kinda want this. Half of me is laughing just from the idea, and half of me is disgusted by the concept and myself for even entertaining it.

Something similar happened to my dad. He had like 5 women on the go casual dating from a website. One of them convinced him to make a Facebook account. He didnt realise how public that shit is and they all found out about eachother.
He was a hero for about 2 seconds.

Me and my mates would get on the train together on online, put max bounties on each other and try to take on the entire lobby.
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 1 day ago:
They’d be as well carrying on. Its in a pretty unique position as being a game that people are talking about before its even finished, which is pretty uncommon for most titles, and can be “the game they tried to ban” which did wonders for Manhunt, GTA and Postal.

- Comment on idk 2 days ago:
The responses ive gotten here have been surprising, and IMO a little short sighted. My problem with AI is largely ethical and “spiritual”, in that its trained on people’s work and is replacing them slowly but surely, and that it will lack the inherent creative “soul” that a human brings.
Compare what AI can do today with what it could do 10 years ago. What will it be capable of in another 10 years? Everybody says “lol never replace humans never because its shit” but I suspect different. They said they couldnt beat us at chess. They said they could never realistically pass for human. They said they’d never make music. They said they’d never be able to make art.
In my mind, the question shouldnt be “is it good enough” because it will be one day. The question should be “are you going to put up with this shit, and if so, to what degree”. Thats why I tried to differentiate between art/creativity and technical ability.

Me too from this moment on. You’ve described it perfectly.
- Comment on What if I told you that refusing to trade your life time for money is a good and respectable choice 3 days ago:
Theres a lot of psychology that goes into schedules like that that I feel goes (deliberately?) Underresearched/underrepresented or something.
When I was working 5 days 8 hour shifts with weekends off, I was phoning in sick every time I could afford it, and would refuse Saturday shifts every time unless I was desperate for the money.
When I was working 3 on 3 off 12 hour shifts, I often ended up working 21 days straight accepting all the overtime. The fact that the next “weekend” was never more than 3 days away really made the work tolerable.
- Comment on Do you cheat in video games? 3 days ago:
I used to, back in the days of cheat codes, because they were fun.
The only real way to cheat now is to hack the game. This will mean doing shit loads of homework to learn how to do it myself, or pay for some dodgy software that may or may not contain a virus to download all my nudes and blackmail me for bitcoin while my account gets terminated for cheating so I could win a couple games on COD.
I do not any more.

I mean yeah if no parts of a game work then it will suck. Good point.

Im not sure ill be able to explain myself clearly enough for you to understand
- Comment on idk 4 days ago:
Not necessarily, its just a tool like anything else. Just depends how much its been used and how effectively. I havent been on steam in a long time to see this label popup in the wild, but I suspect it’ll need more nuance to be effective.
“I used AI to write the whole story and do all the voice acting” is gonna suck.
“I used AI to help with the scripting because I suck at coding” might be the greatest game ever just from an individual who doesnt have the skills themselves.

But what about when you need to plug your hair dryer in and need to remove a lamps plug and it ends up on the floor and then you get a knock at the door and its your friend and you go out and forget all about it until you get home and completely fuck your own feet
