check on your boomer relatives. is it just me or can any other people immediately tell an AI photo because of the lighting and Depth of field is always wrong? Like it’s always off.
- Comment on What is your favorite Assassin's Creed game? 1 month ago:
I love Odyssey’s giant Greek world. It may be because I love Greek history.

Download it, have it forever. distribute. I wish projects like this wouldn’t use static websites for distribution, it’s what makes them an easy target. I hate static rom sites for a lot of reasons, but this is the main one.
- Comment on What have you played this week? 3 months ago:
I’ve been playing Forza horizon 4, Euro Truck Sim 2, and ESO. And a little Switch emulation.
- Comment on People liked AI art – when they thought it was made by humans 7 months ago:
Oh I don’t work with the stuff, it’s just from what I’ve seen. I don’t really find any AI art I’ve seen to be this big impressive thing. I’m more interested in it from a data standpoint. I feel like not actually making your own art feels kind of depressing. Like what’s the point? Unless it’s for commercial use? Like if I feel creative, I’m going to make something.
Like I used to write, and I feel like if I wanted to write, I’d write. I don’t see the point in “writing” a prompt that pulls from other people’s work. Like what would I get out of it.
Yeah, commercial applications for it are great. It Makes life easier, lowers the barrier to entry, and hopefully will result in less work.
But for purely creative and cultural reasons, I just don’t see the point. Like I know nothing is original and we all pull from somewhere, but part of the enjoyment —to me— is the process of learning, of researching, reading other’s work to hone my craft.
And art without that is soulless and not an act of expression that comes from the deep reaches of ourselves.
It’s as empty as somebody buying a race car and a team to manage it, versus someone building their own and knowing every inch of it.
- Comment on People liked AI art – when they thought it was made by humans 7 months ago:
I’ll say it again because I always do. I’ve never seen AI art that I couldn’t tell was AI generated . It’s always wrong. The light source is always wrong, like the lighting is painted on subjects instead of cast onto them. And it lacks imperfections caused by human hand. Maybe it’s the photographer in me, but I’ve never seen believable lighting in AI art
- Comment on BitTorrent is No Longer the ‘King’ of Upstream Internet Traffic 7 months ago:
What I’ve seen from the average person, torrenting safely is for techies and most aren’t bothered with the effort of it. It’s a low hurdle that most people don’t want to waste time on. Building a local collection takes a shit ton of time. I’m currently rebuilding my music collection to roll my own music streaming server and I’m questioning the time value. But I’m sick of music I like getting deplatformed due to licensing

- Comment on Poor Poor Pitiful Me 9 months ago:
From what I’ve seen and spoken to the younger generation in my comp sci classes. None of them pirate. It’s too much work for them and they’re into that instant gratification. They thought I was an animal for pirating media… so I don’t know what they’re talking about

- Comment on Love picking up new Gameboy games in 2023 10 months ago:
It’s a bit simple compared to their other releases like The Machine. but the vibe is good. I would love a more in depth game like OG gbc games, but I assume that takes a bit budget and a team.

This has been in my backlog for years. Maybe I’ll play it next. But I did just get horizon zero Dawn ultimate or whatever it’s called in the steam sale
- Comment on The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion 10 months ago:
I just finished A Plagues take and Before I Forget. So I’m between story games at the moment.
I’m going to be playing a heck of a lot of euro truck simulator 2 because it’s the holiday challenge and I find the portals to the snowy areas cool because I’ve always wanted snow in the northern countries. The physics are pretty cool.
I typical replay Earthbound this time of the year because it’s just a nostalgic time and it’s my favorite game, so I’ll probably play that by the light of the Christmas tree this week, either on my GBA, my pi zero 2 powered Gameboy, or my pitendo cart.

Every game I’ve bought this year has ran perfectly in Linux. And I don’t check the Linux status before I buy them. Yolo has paid off
- Comment on Over 10 Years After It Was Announced, Star Citizen’s Single-Player Squadron 42 Is ‘Feature Complete’ - IGN 1 year ago:
This game has taken so long that it’s either money laundering, the devs are just incompetent, or they suffer from the inability to edit themselves down
- Comment on lemmy.ml 1 year ago:
Is it real antisemitism or just not supporting Israel?
About when they start going on about “Zionists” Is where I draw the line and where it typically takes a turn.
As a Jewish person, I find it healthy to criticize the Israeli government. Most young Israelis do. Their government has been steamrolled by a wannabe dictator that is corrupt as hell and his team of racist, backwards conservative orthodox buddies.
They were just protesting in the streets weeks ago and now we’re expected to turn around and support the government? Nah. This doesn’t change anything.

Yeah, you can’t trust Americans. They’ll steal your own land out from under you and Rob your grandma and call it good business sense. Saying this as an American.

- Comment on [MEGATHREAD] Starfield - Your experiences! 1 year ago:
I think people were expecting fallout no man’s sky…and I don’t know why.
I’d rather play nms for exploration/sandbox
And then a Bethesda space game for goofyish gunplay with a decent story.

Best modern Sony can do is a streaming shitbox that you can accomplish the same thing with using a phone or tablet you already own, and it’ll have same janky aesthetic as well.
- Comment on My PSP with 11 years of use, still strong today! 1 year ago:
I had one for 2 glorious weeks after buying it at initial release. Then my baby brother dumped water or something on it while I was at work. That was a lot of money for a teenager at the time. I is sad
