No?
I’m just saying people enjoy a game idk what youre gaining from gatekeeping that.
Saying something is just for kids is the only stupid thing I’m hearing tbh, adults are allowed to have fun

So sometimes the most profitable quarterly isn’t the best thing to do?
Minions were made TO BE DUMB, Minecraft is the most popular game in the world MADE DUMB FOR PROFIT - there’s a massive difference and blaming the people mad not the problem is pretty stupid

If were going average or median I would be genuinely surprised if it was under 20 ngl.
They advertise to kids cause kids and adults buy it then, advertise to adults and youre just cutting off part of your market - companies aren’t so super sterilised these days cause today’s youth are just super loaded

Now? This is essentially the truth with the internet
- Comment on What games popularized certain mechanics? 2 months ago:
It was more a server side plugin than a mod, but that only grew its popularity.
Even randomised loot existed around the map

From all the time saved not troubleshooting windows you might actually have to pick up a hobby, which I suppose to some is a reason
- Comment on ELI5: how do mobile devices know your movements? 3 months ago:
I’ll admit i havent looked into it in a couple years, but I could have sworn this was why real time kinematic positional systems existed. I can’t imagine the crystal timer nor the accuracy of a digital signal could be the issu
(Of course I’m too lazy to google it so take this as scientific as the effort i put in, minimal lol)

As well as the us military intentionally keeps GPS readings inaccurate, as conspiracy theorist as that sounds lol

Assuming they use the same architecture performance wouldn’t be too much of an issue, my main gaming PC runs under QEMU technically

What gives you such confidce it will fail if I may ask?
- Comment on Why is it impossible to reverse-engineer closed source software? 4 months ago:
Hardest part is its a lossy ‘encoder’ which the parts lost are the human readable part

As in you’re trying to intentionally annoy them?
- Comment on How does generative AI create convincing lighting in images? 4 months ago:
To get a bit more technical, they build images in passes; each becoming more coherent than the last. This gives thsm a boost to understanding understand how ‘things’ relate to one another, knowing them by nothing but that relation. Light + light source being an example, and the angle of lighting being another deeper layer of that a - completed on a less noisy pass.
This is how its able to build images from its training parts, it sorta understands how each of them relate to some things, so its able to sorta organizes an image of random noise each pass, eventually creating a ‘unique’ image inspired by its training data.
It also gives it that perfect image you mention, cause its specifically trained to look like what looks good to us - its essentially a function optimised on nothing but.

They mention using it in HR to enhance employee retention, which is… pretty damn dystopian
- Comment on Why not serve fried chicken on Juneteenth? How is it different from serving corned beef on St. Patrick’s day? 4 months ago:
I mean its not the exact same crisp but a small layer of oil in a standard pan’ll still beat waiting months I’d argue

Is it not common just to make something when you want it?
Maybe I’m too Canadian to understand but do you usually go out for meals?

Not to poke the trolls, but what in this article relies on snowden’s authority?
Seems like to me he’s only drawing attention to something easily verifiable.

Yeah but honestly without implementing ‘one true philosophy’ I can’t see any ground to stand on where they shouldn’t be allowed to.
What if god comes down tomorrow and says ‘the fuck you guys are keeping babies instead of killing them?!?’
To us we really got no frame of reference of an absolute ‘good faith’ or bad, so enforcing it just seems like encouraging abuse of the system.
- Comment on Making healthier choices 5 months ago:
Lmao so measuring calories in food isn’t accurate cause you don’t consider it food when measured?
That’s gotta be the funniest counter argument I’ve ever heard
- Comment on It is very therapeutic to garden, though. 6 months ago:
Funny enough ‘efficiency’ industrially tends to just mean what makes the most money anyways, so most crop’s have been trained to be nutrient sparse, yet large
- Comment on Why is currency so essential? 6 months ago:
I mean like owning things is a human concept not a physical law, so yeah I can imagine a society exists where nothing is owned
Can’t say if it’d be better or worse than our current cause were not trying it, but tbh I’d be happy if instead of solely me being able to use ‘my’ drill for example, the whole community can whenever they require.
Sounds a hell of a lot more efficient to me if we work together not apart
- Comment on Why is currency so essential? 6 months ago:
Making the assumption ownership is a valued currency of course.
Which is arguably a bootstrap-paradox; we need capital to participate in capitalism, for which we need - cause without capitalism what would we do with our capital.
- Comment on Why is currency so essential? 6 months ago:
On one end carrying sheep would be annoying, but so is a credit score; arguably both are sources of noise distracting humanity from actually improving at all
