It used to be a really popular subject of discussion in normal-people-internet a couple years ago when it was released.

That checks out.

I have actually seen that video. But my simplification is still correct, except that I should’ve used the word “behaves”. Because for the purposes of how it will behave the simplification shows the effects clearly.

If not touched the photon goes through both slits and interacts with itself, which is still super weird. Basically, it’s a wave if not touched, but a particle if touched.

Yeah, I’ve played it using my Oculus Quest 1, too. It is the most game-like VR game, as opposed to most VR games that are more mini-games. But I’ve definitely spent more time in those mini-games than Alyx.

In addition to everything said, I’m pretty sure it was Oculus and John Carmack who did most of the work on getting VR to where it is.

I’m starting to suspect that some people can actually read and finish books.

Apple has its own can of worms, but privacy usually isn’t the issue. At least in comparison to other tech giants.

I think that’s “pissed in”, which is different.

There are plenty of ethical things you can do with $1 billion. It’s the acquisition that’s questionable.

As I said, those are all 1st party applications. I don’t see it anywhere being OS-wide. And what’s “smartlook”? Do you mean Spotlight? I haven’t seen any AI in Spotlight, but I also haven’t installed (the janky) Tahoe yet.

On MacOS, at least for now, AI isn’t prominent at all. I’ve been using an M4 Air for a month before I remembered that Apple Intelligence was a thing and had to google how to use it. So far it only seems to be partially available in 1st party Apple apps which I don’t use anyway.
- Comment on GOG: We’re thrilled to announce that the Crysis Remastered Trilogy has joined our catalog, and the original Crysis is now part of the GOG Preservation Program! 2 months ago:
I wasn’t talking about LAN but but playing online on public servers. And I wasn’t saying it as a bad thing, just tempering expectations. Iirc, you have to patch the game, then create an account for the GameSpy replacement. There were some stability issues, too, but if you find a decent server it was ok.
But after all of that the main issue was, of course, lack of players.

Warhead was like Crysis 1.5, actually. But I have tried playing the original Crysis online a couple years ago and it’s possible. Not super convenient, but possible.
- Comment on effective advertising to boost your business 2 months ago:
I wouldn’t say it’s ugly per se, but it’s rather distinctive and we have developed an association with it.
- Comment on effective advertising to boost your business 2 months ago:
The “slop” part they’re talking about is the logo itself. You can tell it’s made by Sora because of the font, and to an extent the proportions of items being off.
- Comment on effective advertising to boost your business 2 months ago:
And you can barely even tell this was made with Sora.

Shouldn’t it be “lie around”?
- Comment on Ah yes that's my bad 2 months ago:
Today my lecturer, whose English is very bad, pronounced “c” in “artificial” as a “k” and it sounded like “arti-fecal”. And I thought Lemmy would love the term “artifecal intelligence”.

- Comment on Delivery time: Strong. 2 months ago:
I don’t think users actually write those. You just pick the amount of stars and the term is hardcoded for the amount. It most likely is just a translation mishap.
- Comment on Yea well it still can't have an existential crisis like humans can! Take that! 2 months ago:
True, that totally happens to me all the time, too. For example, yesterday it was repeatedly insisting that there’s a certain checkbox in qbittorrent settings, which wasn’t there. I gave it the screenshot of the setting page and it “realized” it’s named differently. So in the end, it helped me with something that I couldn’t google properly. It’s a supplementary tool for me.
