Didn’t it get guttered and rebuilt a couple of decades back anyway. I’m showing read somewhere, actually it might have been in one of the X-Men movies, that it’s completely different now to how it what originally rebuilt after the fire. So this would be at least the 4th iteration of the White House.

How. The world is in the state it’s in because rich and powerful people just do whatever the hell they want and ignore everyone else who protest.
- Comment on Having to work during the apocalypse sucks 2 days ago:
That also means you have missed out on the joy of refusing to do a task simply because they haven’t created a ticket for it.

That’s why you have to occasionally stick your arse in the air on a Sunday day. Don it near a school or local park. You’ll be fine, if anyone asks tell them JFK said to.

Well it’s only a theory has anyone actually met a germ?

It’s found in plants and bacteria so it’s not actually exclusively plants which is why in most countries you’re not allowed to use it as a weak killer.

So does it go after organic tissue or not, because last time I checked I’m pretty certain that plants are organic. No one has plants in their stomach either. What a prat.

It’s a bit different though isn’t it. Missouri is a state, an internal administrative district inside a country. I feel like it’s a bit different than not knowing where a country is.
- Comment on There's nothing 'euro' about 'eurojank,' says Stalker dev 5 days ago:
I suspect that most Americans don’t know where Europe is, what countries make it up, and couldn’t point to Ukraine on a map.

Yet more legitimate targets i see.

Well it’s in the same theme but I don’t think it’s in necessarily rip off. The videos don’t seem to be the same.
The name is similar but that’s just because there’s a theme in these things, look up Dave’s Garage

What channel? It’s confusing enough that apparently the channel is real and now you’re saying that the journal is real but does rip off another channel but not the channel in the picture.

Imagine scientists declaring that you are not interesting enough to be technically alive and you have been officially kicked out.

What extreme office activities are you doing that you would suffer from motion sickness?

As much as I’m an advocate for VR I don’t think I’d want to spend 8 hours in a rig. I look like I’ve been wearing ski goggles as it is and that’s only after two or three hours.

I was going to say his vitamin D intake is at least taken care of.
If I had that many screens I would at least put everything in dark mode.
- Comment on WHERE THE FUCK IS THE CURSOR? 1 week ago:
I refuse to believe that this setup is actually efficient. You cannot possibly actually need that much information on screen at the same time. I think Houston mission control has less going on than this.
This is just having a lot of screens for the sake of it.
- Comment on WHERE THE FUCK IS THE CURSOR? 1 week ago:
I think you can enable something where you can press control and it will put a big circle around your cursor but it’s not enabled by default which is stupid and it’s not obvious because it’s a random keyboard key.
- Comment on Google's Gemini will make its way into Dragon Quest X to power a "Chatty Slimey" AI companion, Square Enix has announced 1 week ago:
That’s my problem with this idea. As a game developer I want every aspect of my game to be defined I don’t want some rogue element doing random things that I cannot predict or account for.
- Comment on Google's Gemini will make its way into Dragon Quest X to power a "Chatty Slimey" AI companion, Square Enix has announced 1 week ago:
Randomly generated mysteries actually doing exist (obviously it’s not actually random it’s just picking from a list of possible choices).
It’s a very small game though only if you city blocks but it can generate some interesting cases. I had one case where the cop who found the body turned out to be the actual murderer, which is honestly quite clever, I’ve also never had it do that again.
Hopefully somebody further down can tell you what the game is because I’m at work and I can’t remember its name

Like the article says it seems really weird decision for a multiplayer game.
It seems like the worst of both worlds between just letting players guide each other and having a tutorial. All the downsides of unreliable individuals giving unreliable information (in humans for the sake of amusement, and in the AIs because of hallucinations) while simultaneously lacking the limited progression path and handholding of a guided tutorial.
- Comment on Google's Gemini will make its way into Dragon Quest X to power a "Chatty Slimey" AI companion, Square Enix has announced 1 week ago:
How Square Enix and the minds behind Gemini plan to limit and “guide” what the AI can and cannot say remains uncertain, and specific details regarding exactly how this will all work have yet to be shared.
From the article it sounds like that’s exactly what they are doing. Just having an interface in the game straight through to Gemini.

I think these lot of part of a separate intake. They are struggling to meet their quotas so they have to take anyone that turns up. They have basically lowered the entry requirements at this point to “can, with guidance, handle simultaneous walking and spitting”.

I’m not asking whether the game was successful I’m asking if it was well received. Did people enjoy the AI integration did they think it added something to the game or would they have preferred the game not to have it.

As a game developer I would be extremely uncomfortable with the idea that my characters could just say whatever.

Because the franchise wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for my preferences you pathologically obnoxious twit. I mean seriously do you actually think that anyone outside of the fandom cares about what happens here?
Our opinions are the only valid opinions and if you disagree with those opinions then that’s entirely your problem.
- Comment on Google's Gemini will make its way into Dragon Quest X to power a "Chatty Slimey" AI companion, Square Enix has announced 1 week ago:
The fact that I have no idea what you’re talking about it’s kind of my point really. There has been no successful AI game.
- Comment on Google's Gemini will make its way into Dragon Quest X to power a "Chatty Slimey" AI companion, Square Enix has announced 1 week ago:
Hasn’t been a single game ever released it has used AI and it been well received? I should really get into being a c-suite exec. It would be easy, I could turn up to work absolutely shitfaced and still do a more competent job.
- Comment on William Shatner And ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ Actors React To News Of Series Ending 1 week ago:
I think people don’t like the direction that they’re taking Star Trek in general. It was one of the few science fiction shows which was actually hopeful about the future, but the writers have decided that they can’t think of creative ways to go in that direction so they’re going to blow everything up.
It wouldn’t be so bad if it made some kind of logical sense, but they just had everything destroyed for hand wavy reasons without any basis in canon.
