Thank you!

Sure, but with ‘decompiled/recompiled’ games apparently not breaching copyright, you’ll be able to get GTA 6ish without having to worry about torrent clients and magnets and seeds and all that super complex stuff that most people just don’t want to deal with.

If, a week after GTA 6 comes out at £70/£90, Big Stealing Cars 6 comes out at only £20 and is 90% as good… where’s the money going?

Why would they waste time and brain developing their own games when they can just piggyback on someone else’s creativity that’s had proven success in the market place?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is mass decompiling games. That's both awesome and scary.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
This is very conflicting.

I daily a macbook, and so games aren’t that readily available. To be able to play something like the original Syndicate (1993, SNES and other platforms) or Shadow Hearts: Covenant (2004, PlayStation 2) on my mac would be awesome. I’m very much a patient gamer, so there are so many old titles I’d very, very happily play through again.

But there’s no way this would be restricted to old, dead platform games.

AAA games now cost millions or even, according to GTA 6 rumours, over a billion to make. If a studio publishes a game, and a week later there’s a free AI clone of it, then there is no more AAA games industry. Actually, that also follows for some of the awesome indie games I’ve loved and enjoyed. How can you make money selling copies of your game if there’s a free, or massively undercut, version of it available? Obviously most gamers would like to support creators, but in this economy? They’d probably rather eat and pirate games.

Pirate.

Tell him turn up to the ribbon cutting, try the dairy free ice cream, say"Christ that’s rank!" and then vomit on the CEO’s shoes.

Problem solved.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Too many people don't understand this when parking⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Here’s another. If two people are parked like this and the spaces are tight:
```
_____________  
| F |   | F |   
| B |   | B | 
```
Then you should reverse into the space between them, like so:
```
_____________  
| F |  B| F |   
| B |  F| B | 
```
so your passenger door is close to the passenger door of the car next to you and there’s a bigger gap between your car’s driver’s door and the third car’s driver’s door.

Or like this if you drive on the wrong side of the road:
```
_____________  
| F |B  | F |   
| B |F  | B | 
```

We don’t have this product in my country so I call this cheap looking food for people who can’t cook.

But money is tight all around, so if this is all you can afford, I hope things get better for you soon…

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Only 25 per cent of children walk to school alone compared to 86 per cent in 1971. What went wrong?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
My kids both walk to school but we’re lucky enough to live 5 minutes from one school and 10 minutes from another. When they were little I used to walk them to school. And I’d see other parents dropping their kids off then running to their cars so they could get to work in time.

In 1971 my dad worked but my mum didn’t. She could take me to school when I was young without worrying about time.

I guess that’s a difference. More families have two working parents, and more adults work further away from home.

I remember living this meme many years ago, and my best friend trying to strangle me after I finally explained that I knew he was right, and had known all along. Still friends and I definitely had it coming.

I don’t have a problem with ghost kitchens. The best Indian takeaway (by far) near me doesn’t have a restaurant, they’re delivery (or collection) only. The curries are superb, and the prices are decent, presumably because they don’t have the overheads of a restaurant, waiters, bar staff, tables, chairs, linens, crockery, cutlery.

I’d rather ghost kitchens existed than find myself sitting in a real restaurant, waiting for my food, while a constant stream of helmet-wearing moped riders come in and get priority.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wait, you mean workers *don't* love the automatic dumbass machines that constantly threaten their jobs?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I used to work for a small digital strategy consultancy. All the senior consultants up were expert in pretty much everything digital marketing and did their own data manipulation and analysis. SEO, technical SEO, link building, paid search, paid ads, Facebork ads, Youtube ads, social listening, search research… you name it. New consultants sat with experts, learned from people who genuinely knew their shit. We were expensive compared to, eg. Accenture’s off-shore teams, but our results were far stronger, and offered genuinely actionable insights (relevant to our clients’ business strategies and goals), compared to Accenture’s off-shore teams.

Then we got bought up. Quite apart from the devastation that wreaked upon our ops staff as we were ‘integrated’ into the larger company, we were instructed to start using AI for all data analysis. For efficiency. So, our junior consultants no longer did any of their own data aggregation, cleaning, manipulation, or analysis. They didn’t understand the data. They just spewed out whatever the AI told them the data said. Which, admittedly, was quicker. But there was no insight beyond the fucking obvious.

And, one by one, all the experienced people left the company.

Including me.

What had been a company of experts became a small department of AI users who didn’t understand what they were doing, or why, or what it meant.
