True, but, sadly, I’m omnivorous and I like diversion in my game library.

When I was introduced to anime by a fan, I was not impressed. Me and my wife got some giggles out of these out of their naivity (and some became family memes). Aside of that, anime makes me cringe.
I like Rammstein Engel clip with Evangelion video compilation, but I don’t think I’d enjoy the anime itself (though maybe I should try some time).

Lemmy tends to stigmatize usage if AI because of environmental impact.
I think using AI casually to shorten search for information or to create an image to be amused of or to use as reference to create my own art is perfectly acceptable.
Shit, each day I’m playing videogames, which burn much more electricity than a request to AI which translates to calculation of a function on several matrices. This is nowhere near calculating thousands of textured polygons 144 times a second.
I won’t pay for AI tho if it becomes payed or subscription-only. Fuck it.
Also I’m a programmer and I’ve never used AI to write code for me, and I think it’s terrible idea because it will make me too relaxed and dumb, leeching all the skill from me. Also it is useless for anything relatively complex as it will create more problems (bugs) than solve, and it will be unable to fix them. Treat this as a side note and not an addition to my unpopular opinion about AI, because this part I think is popular.

I agree with you. Drug control is only needed to control population so they keep working for their masters.
Alcohol is a drug too, and is allowed because it tends to kill closer to old age where people become burden to the system. People can work next day after consuming alcohol. Also most consumers do that just before weekends. So negative impact is even less.

There are still roguelikes without meta progression. I’m even making two myself (without much hope to finish them, as most of my projects).

There are elites in every country. And they have power. Only revolution and establishment of anarchy may help. But I don’t believe anarchy will work and not deteriorate into barbarism. We’re fucked.

I agree with you. I also don’t like anime and can’t understand why people are excited with it.
My theory is that they align themselves with eastern culture, where naive look at the world and the same naive jokes are cool and funny.
Or maybe I’m just the evil person.
Anyway, not upvoting because we’re supposed to upvote unpopular opinions in such topics.

In other words, Anon is right on every point? Honestly, I thought some were exhaggerations. But thanks for confirming each and every.
- Comment on Look at this. Or don't. 8 months ago:
Which suspiciously reminds optimization. Like computer game with infinite procedural world, where map chunks only generated where player interacts with world, being just formula (algorithm) everywhere else.

Well, every natural plant have seeds. They need to reproduce. Those without seeds go extinct in one generation.
- Comment on More Online CO-OP Games should have option to pause 10 months ago:
If I recall correctly, Starcraft 2 has a pause in online match. Other players get pause screen and can unpause the game. It all comes down to both(all) players agree on pause, and can be useful if correctly implemented.

Recently I was asking Copilot a question (in english). As conversation moved to a topic where to get a certain item, it started giving suggestions in my native language and where to find it in my city (the information I wasn’t giving it). I understand that IP address is enough to make this decision, but the question is what else the AI knows about you.

You might enjoy Martha is Dead game on Steam. That is my personally favourite game, which really stirred emotions. My wife tried to play it and got physically sick. Check it out.

Thanks! It had to be done.

After quite a break from HD2 I’ve returned to try a game vs Illuminati. I’ve always played private lobby, but this time settings were reset and I forgot to check this specific one. Ended up in a game with random people which wasn’t my plan.

Holy amount of ads on that page. More than actual content. Yeah, I was lazy to install adblocker on my phone browser. Until this moment.

- Comment on Hytale, once touted as the Minecraft killer, is ceasing development 1 year ago:
There are videos on youtube that sum up main progression from stone to steel.
There are also other topics to learn, like leather making (for backpacks), animals handling, bee keeping (if you want lanterns), windmill building (to automate iron processing and as prerequisite for steel), and many more.
Survival hanbook (H key by default have a lot of info and guides on game mechanics). Otherwise, google videos on certain topics.
It is fun to pass all these milestones and see how your small village grows.

- Comment on Do tell!!! 1 year ago:
I was born in 1977, and the fungi that destroyed most of Gros Michel seem to happen in 1950ies. But I can say for sure that bananas in my childhood were much tastier than now. Maybe because there are much more sorts of bananas except GM and Cavendish, or maybe GM was still sold and I was lucky to try it. Modern bananas are outright bland to me.
- Comment on Do tell!!! 1 year ago:
That’s the point of the OP of the thread. I’ve read though, that Gros Michel is stll grown in small farms, just not at scale.
- Comment on Do tell!!! 1 year ago:
Gros Michel was tastier than modern Cavendish anyway.
