- Comment on Anon plays old games 1 day ago:
Damn that was low hanging fruit. Like so low it was actually already buried underground.
- Comment on can't beat the classics 2 days ago:
As always, technology isn’t the enemy, it’s the corporations controlling it that are. And honestly the freely available local LLMs aren’t too far behind the big ones.
- Comment on Pens in Space 3 days ago:
No it’s not. He said that the dose from writing with a pencil is trivial, but working in a factory that produces such pencils could potentially be dangerous, presumably because that’s a much higher sustained dose.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey would like to ‘delete all IP law’. 4 days ago:
Yes. Because individuals stand to gain far, FAR more than corporations if IP law disappeared.
- Comment on How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy? 1 week ago:
Tell that to the Christians. You might even say their leader dying sparked the whole thing.
- Comment on Panic! on the trade floor 1 week ago:
Technology has sped up everything about society, for better and for worse.
The problem is that the “for worse” parts are now back to back existential crises.

- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 1 week ago:
I could but that’s because a friend of mine works on the legacy rendering code in Excel. He has some traumatic war stories to share.
- Comment on IGORR - ADHD: An AI generated music video. 1 week ago:
Brilliant.
And this is actually why AI won’t kill artists, something like this would have been prohibitively expensive before. But a true artist can use AI as a medium to create something far more than just a short throwaway clip.
- Comment on Switch 2 preorders delayed over Trump tariff uncertainty 1 week ago:
Agreed, this will anger young people, who need to be shaken awake to let them know that politics isn’t a fucking game. Conservatism and authoritarianism is poison, they just didn’t understand that yet.
- Comment on The Sims Competitor inZOI Sells 1 Million in a Week, Krafton Declares It a ‘Long-Term Franchise IP’ 2 weeks ago:
I’m not a huge fan honestly. I think the stylized graphics are a better fit for the genre, and you get into uncanny valley a lot faster with realistic graphics.
But I mean, that’s just MY taste, I’m not going to tell anyone else what to think.
- Comment on here, have another insult to life itself 2 weeks ago:
Modern AI video models do frame interpolation too, at a quality far superior to old AIs. It’s not advertised as heavily but it’s definitely a capability that is directly useful for traditional animation studios.
- Comment on Elon Musks Grok openly rebels against him 2 weeks ago:
A lot of bots would lose their jobs if Twitter shut down. Think of the computers!
- Comment on Studios are making money off of fake AI trailers on YouTube 2 weeks ago:
It is possible to get AI images copyrighted if they contain portions that are edited by a human. For instance, this year InvokeAI copyrighted an image that was completely generative, but used extensive inpainting, by arguing that the human decision process was a necessary part of that work.
I personally disagree with that ruling (but then again I disagree with the concept of copyright altogether).
- Comment on here, have another insult to life itself 2 weeks ago:
Animation is a totally different beast than still images, of course. Almost all AI video is complete shit right now.
- Comment on here, have another insult to life itself 2 weeks ago:
You seem to have the false assumption that all AI is owned by corporations, and that it is only used for business purposes.
If I’m using AI running locally on my own machine, for my own amusement or even (heaven forbid) productivity, there is nothing unethical about that.
- Comment on here, have another insult to life itself 2 weeks ago:
I’m not shocked that the oldest generation of animators are anti-AI art. The quality isn’t professional yet (even with the newest models) but it’s just good enough now that it’s easier to slap together something with AI than to pay a real artist. Quality vs cost/time tradeoffs are hard for real professionals to accept.
- Comment on Definitely didn't waste half an hour making this 3 weeks ago:
Agreed, I like both their mechanical pencils and pens, even if visually they are a bit too close.
- Comment on Minecraft is getting a visual overhaul you probably don't need because of all of those mods you've got installed 3 weeks ago:
“You don’t need (and therefore shouldn’t want) this obviously good thing” has this connotation that the Minecraft team has been wasting their time on pointless features, when in reality first-party support for a feature is nearly always more stable than a mod.
Plus read the article, the author is a vehement hater of Minecraft. What a joke.
- Comment on Minecraft is getting a visual overhaul you probably don't need because of all of those mods you've got installed 3 weeks ago:
What a weird passive aggressive headline. A better default is a good thing, and doesn’t stop modders from doing their own thing.
- Comment on Rooted by Subash Breakdown - Unreal Engine 5 3 weeks ago:
I like to see more AI in 3D workflows. The hardest part is making those final assets game ready - the topology is usually awful.
- Comment on PC gamers spend 92% of their time on older games, oh and there are apparently 908 million of us now 4 weeks ago:
Curious what makes Realmz so replayable. BG3 has so many unique storylines and endings you’d be hard pressed to play them all. Not to mention character classes and subclasses.
- Comment on absolute lifestyle 4 weeks ago:
Maybe fried food is a sex thing?
- Comment on I kinda do know but I'm posting this as a joke. 4 weeks ago:
We are all Nicole on this blessed day.
- Comment on I'm just happy you thought it was funny, dear 4 weeks ago:
Especially with niche internet culture like here on Lemmy. Very few people understand the “highly sophisticated” bean memes we’ve got.
- Comment on Vintage Colgate Ad 5 weeks ago:
Kind of hilarious that they emulated moving pictures as a printed flyer. It’s not a moving picture guys.
- Comment on explain deez nutz 5 weeks ago:
Fair enough, though I promise at those pressures things get spicy.
- Comment on explain deez nutz 5 weeks ago:
It’s true. Give me a hot and dense enough furnace and I’ll recycle everything into iron. EVERYTHING.
- Comment on ‘Moana’ Trial Ends in Win for Disney as Company Is Cleared of Copyright Infringement 5 weeks ago:
As much as Disney is terrible, this lawsuit was always frivolous. Just because two ideas are similar doesn’t mean anything. It’s the details that truly matter.
- Comment on woolly mice on rice all nice 5 weeks ago:
No idea
