When I deliver it as a response to a request I have to deliver the gzipped version if nothing else. To get to a point where I’m poisoning an AI I’m assuming it’s going to require gigabytes of data transfer that I pay for.
At best I’m adding to the power consumption of AI.

This is surely trivial to detect. If the number of pages on the site is greater than some insanely high number then just drop all data from that site from the training data.
It’s not like I can afford to compete with OpenAI on bandwidth, and they’re burning through money with no cares already.

I’m sure this is having a massive impact on pacifying all the people watching the 2010 Robin Hood movie.

Tell that to the people who were working on it and will now get laid off instead.

Often it’s more fun to imagine than to actually find out. Especially when the show is remade without several major characters who are too famous to bother returning, or dead, or in jail for something nobody wants to talk about.

If it could be done well I’d be over the moon, but there’s not a chance in hell.
The last revolt was busy trying to be Black Mirror. The best episode for me was the one with Rhys Darby because it went back to the Monster of the Week formula that just works.

I really enjoyed Scavenger’s Reign. Never heard of Pantheon, but if you mention both in the same sentence I’m intrigued!

The UK one was fantastic. Did you see both and then pick the US one specifically, or is it the only one you saw? I haven’t seen the US one, but I’m interested now!

Crazy that with all the work they were doing they still had to close down. Good luck to the employees in finding new jobs!

If he can be Bond then anyone can be Bond. If anyone can be Bond then the whole premise is absolutely pointless.

I’m sure some of the older game servers will be offline by now. Hopefully not Black Flag yet.
I’m enjoying Odyssey. I had 6 hours on the game from 2018, I decided to restart the game about a month ago, and now my total playtime is 82 hours. Last year I think I clocked about 10 hours on the Playstation in total. So this has definitely been a surprising amount of fun. I’m very driven by trophies and open world missions though.

I’m just wrapping up AC Odyssey. I’ll be heading back to Unity to finish it off soon. I still have a couple of things to finish in Black Flag, too.
I never really got into the online multiplayer aspects of AC. It really bugged me that they put trophies in the game on that, and now I can never plat the game.

Yeah, if they’re down for over three weeks then I imagine they’ll be forced to refund at least some of the PS+ price.

Last night I thought “this happened a few years ago, too, and we got free games as an apology” and now you tell me it was 14 YEARS ago!?

So funny seeing the comments on the GOG article saying how it’s basically Steam’s only competition, and it would be bad if it were to fail, and then come here and see the exact opposite.
