Why would you go through the hassle of setting Cron when you can ask an LLM running on a server in another continent every minute: “now it’s [time]. If it’s [time_required], then do this”

It is a chatgpt poster

I didn’t see the movie, but if someone is dropped from hundreds of meters, then catched before he hits the ground, the instant deceleration has the same effect of hitting the ground, no?
- Comment on Bloodbath Ahead For EA As It Looks To Cut $700 Million In Annual Costs Under Saudi Arabia 1 week ago:
They paid 53 bil for something that has only 300 mil /year in profits?
A 200 year ROI (interest on the 20 bil loan for the leveraged buyout that ea itself will need to pay) doesn’t seems too bad
- Comment on Amazon thought it would be a good idea to not include subtitles in a film made entirely with sign language. 1 week ago:
I was watching rental family (an american guy moves to japan to be an actor and speaks a very little japanese) and somehow they decided to ignore all the parts in japanese and from the subtitles there was only the english parts. In the beginning i was like "ok, it’s to let the audience know that the protagonist does not understand what they’re shouting to him - then finally i had to pirate a sub from opensubtitles to understand was going on as the dialogues were 95% in japanese
- Comment on Become Human 1 week ago:
I saw Facebook messenger on my friend phone has a dedicated tab on sex bots. There’s one pretending to be a brunette, one to be a redhead, one to be Desi, also Asian, all fetishes are covered
I’m going to install it on a burner phone to see if it’s normal or it was tailored to his usage
- Comment on Become Human 1 week ago:
Tbh I was expecting Facebook to add a feature like that in messenger (subscribe to meta premium to train a custom chatbot) instead they only waste their LLM in lousy sex bots that could only fool desperate people
- Comment on I just released my first fully free Android game: Wandering Alchemist (GPS walking game) 2 weeks ago:
Wow that automatic installer check is really shitty from Google, I wonder why I never saw outrage about that, it will close access to most apps in degoogled operating systems

Why leaving the ad for the scam market instead of censoring it?

I’m doing a #psblackout since I was born but it didn’t change anything

I don’t like the genre but from the trailer it seems very interesting, good job 👍🏻

Wtf it’s harder than I imagined

It’s raised and on some black letters you can see there are lines on the surface with a different light reflection like the nozzle does on TPU.
-
it’s printed on colors that are typically available on TPU (it’s not like pla that comes in every conceivable color)
-
It has a weird drop shape when closed, like if it was designed to be printed flat
-
He says “weeks to make them” when showing a dozen. With a week of production in pad printing you can do millions of units.
-
With pad printing he could have used the traditional round rubber bands

- Comment on I think NAMBLA or some other similar org might buy them... 3 weeks ago:
If it’s hundreds of bracelets then a 3d printer is not the right technique for this. With pad printing those would have costed 1/10th less in materials (the cheapest rubber bands from Alibaba) and be done in 1/100th of the time (5 seconds for each one instead of 1 or 2 hours each)

I’m 100% sure they mean you can purchase your games again at full price
- Comment on I bought a schuko plug adapter. They didn't read specs or even tried it: the diameter of the hole is too small! 5 weeks ago:
The adapter has the earth, is the middle pin and also has the side contacts that would touch the earth on the side of the schuko (here just for aesthetics because the schuko pins can’t fit)

Yes basically every European country and Swiss has its own plug standard
- Comment on I bought a schuko plug adapter. They didn't read specs or even tried it: the diameter of the hole is too small! 5 weeks ago:
Yes but the electrical code allows this kind of converter if there’s a label like “1500W max” because most manufacturers are lazy and don’t ship a cable for the Italian market, they give the cable for the German market. So you have stuff like:
- Computer cables
- Laptop chargers
- Televisions
- Modern fridges
That consume like 2-3 A at max but for the manufacturer it was cheaper to ship the German 16A plug and fuck with all the Italians that have the houses with 10A receptacles

The old ice flavor is bacterial biofilm on the plastic tray, metal is easier to clean
- Comment on Is the Switch 2 a waste of money? 1 month ago:
Even on sale they are extremely expensive.
Do first party games like the Mario ones ever go on sale?
A few years ago I went to the Nintendo NY store/museum and I chuckled when a mom asked the clerk “excuse do you have something on sale?” And she got “no madam here we do not do sales”
- Comment on "You'll own nothing and you'll be happy" 1 month ago:
I think that for now Nintendo Sony and Microsoft are keeping old stores accessible even if it costs them because they calculated the negative PR would cost them more (people wouldn’t hoard digital licenses for titles that don’t have time to play if they knew there’s a potential to be removed from their account before first install)
Ubisoft instead had no problems in removing titles from the Uplay accounts, instead
- Comment on "You'll own nothing and you'll be happy" 1 month ago:
I assumed this was memeing the fact that they removed access to movies that people legitimately purchased without a refund, then saw the news that killed physical games…

Maybe started by pranksters then grifters realizes that can sell fake books and fake stuff like some fake tool that pretends to prove some false assumption

Wow in this thread I don’t know a single game
Let me try with this game that I bought a decade ago for 1€: Pizza Express - very nice chiptune music that matches the gameplay that is a mix between a visual novel and a simulation
- Comment on The agenda 1 month ago:
100gb from a single app is ridiculous, it doesn’t have a feature to delete old stuff? And in messages it doesn’t re encode videos to a lower res instead of just sending a 4k 25mbit/s video?

In the current economy people would buy the $100 game preinstalled on the SSD, then format the drive to use it with something else

On PC the majority of “physical” games is just a steam code in a cheap plastic box. One of the reasons no retailers are selling PC games
