Are they legit charging money for the tech demo game?
Also did they mention how much the “upgrades” will be?
Seems like I’m staying on Steam Deck until that thing wears down into a pile of dust huh.

Good gin is genuinely awesome and I generally don’t like alcohol. Have you tried aged stuff like Slo Gin? It’s quite a different treat

Maybe the rich guys shouldn’t be able to it instead and thats what should change?

Why would you want to hide that information? As long as planes use public skies everyone should be identified. Thats like the very basics of every security operation.

Tailscale is awesome. Alternatively if you’re more technically inclined you can make your own wireguard tailscale and all you need is to get a static IP for your home network. Wireguard will always be safer than each individual service.

- Comment on OpenAI's move to allow generating "Ghibly stlye" images isn't just a cute PR stunt. It is an expression of dominance and the will to reject and refuse democratic values. It is a display of power 4 days ago:
Exactly this is so frustrating that people fall in for copyright propaganda just because “big tech is bad”.
Ghibli doesn’t own a style. It has sbeen made by thousands of animators and millions of illustrations and influences before them.
This is not the way to get back at big tech.

All these job people are just barking up the wrong tree. Oh no my 9-5 is gone instead of oh wow now we collectively have less work load and should focus on resource redistribution.

I have noticed that all of these misogynists are incredibly insecure alpha-pretending males. Can’t imagine how tiring this constant fear must be.
- Comment on Papua New Guinea shuts down Facebook in test to stop 'pornography, misinformation, hate speech' 1 week ago:
This absolutely is censorship. Correct way to handle this would be to create laws and prosecute Facebook for not following them.
All of these comments are justifying autocracy because it’s their flavor of autocracy smh

As a westerner who lived in Asia for the past 2 decades I have unusual take on this.
Americans generally aren’t more stupid than anyone else but they have no face saving culture which acts as a useful bottleneck on social and information exchanges. Because of this Americans can easily subscribe and announce their beliefs even if theyre low effort conspiracies because they are not afraid of losing face for believing in something stupid.
Combined that with information flow that is too fast for most to even comprehend let alone keep up with means that Americans are quick to believe lies and don’t feel punished for doing so.
This is very different in face saving cultures like Asia where if you say or do something stupid you’ll have strong social consequences and even spiritual/religious ones if you’re a Buddhist.

Lol website traffic accounts for like 1% of bandwidth budget. 1 netflix movie is like 20k web pages.

Of course it will. Cloudflare has already ruined the web and it’s just another step further.

- Comment on Chinese EV maker BYD says new fast-charging system could be as quick as filling up a tank 2 weeks ago:
Definitely availability and range. I thought of getting EV here in Thailand but limited range + limited charing coverage + 30min charing time is a real deal breaker.
All of which are very solvable issues and I’m sure my next car will be an EV tho

World of Warcraft!
I know people like to look down on it here but it’s trully an amazing theme park metaverse experience.
I don’t have much time for it these days but just playing couple of hours every week is such a joyful experience. There’s just so much to do in the game, great writing, legendary characters, great people playing it. True metaverse experience everyone has been chasing lately.
- Comment on China will enforce clear flagging of all AI generated content starting from September 2 weeks ago:
100% thats exactly what’s happening and I can’t believe people are so blinded by AI generato hate to praise stuff like that.
- Comment on China will enforce clear flagging of all AI generated content starting from September 2 weeks ago:
What about photos, videos and audio? You should see what the second L means in the LLM before you go at it
- Comment on China will enforce clear flagging of all AI generated content starting from September 2 weeks ago:
So it’s just another way for authoritarians to exert power over people then?
The only way to address AI is through low level laws we already have like anti-discrimination, defamation, online bullying etc. But those give people more rights and protections and you can’t have that.
- Comment on China will enforce clear flagging of all AI generated content starting from September 2 weeks ago:
Everyone’s praising this don’t understand that this request is basically impossible and is merely posturing.
I’m a developer and I work a lot with LLM data and the only way to detect LLM text is through watermarks where some words or expressions are statistically preferred over others. This means it’s only effective on large bodies of text that are not modified further.
If you take LLM content and remix it using traditional natural language processing then it’s done - the content is indistinguishable and untraceable and it takes like 50 lines of python code and a few milliseconds of computing.

It’s crazy how big BYD is in China friendly countries (I’m in SEA and their everywhere) though Japanese cars are still hard to uproot from many cultures and I hope Japan comes up with an affordable EV soon. I’m not driving Chinese spyware.
