Maybe vaguely in general, but you have to look at each show individually.

I’ve had conversations about One Piece before where the other person didn’t want to watch it solely because it had slavery in it, despite every depiction of slavery in the show being blatantly evil.

That was only a year ago. And collections were added way before the merger.

Honestly, I haven’t seen anything get added since the purchase. The main change I’ve seen is more pushing of vortex and collections when you go to the download page, there’s an extra page/window you have to click through now.

Also, splitting requirements and dependencies in different sections of mods’ description tabs. While they did need more differentiation, putting them in separate expansion buttons was too much and actually makes checking dependencies harder, especially with having pages instead of a long list

For an unpaid mod? Thats about the only time I’d be ok with it. But I wouldn’t want to install a mod AI coded.

Another factor is if it’s the difference between getting expanded dialogue for a character with the same voice, or with a different VA that can significantly change the personality.

For example, Serana Dialogue Add-On vs Serana Dialogue Expansion. I personally can’t stand the new personality added with SDA.

That being said, I’m significantly less tolerant of dialogue expansion mods that have spotty quality for the voice or writing. If you’re taking a shortcut in one area (aka AI voice acting), you should be more scruitinizing for the other parts of the mod. AnBeeGod is guilty of this at times. He’s about 50/50 on whether it’s great or sub-par

Doesn’t have it off by default, and not all browsers let you set a custom search engine to direct to the “No AI” version

I still use DDG since it’s the least bad, but it’s still hypocritical for a “private” search engine to default to an AI

Strange, didn’t they already launch a sequel? Not complaining, just surprised.

Interesting, though I have to point out that most survival city builders (aka Banished and its spiritual successors like Settlement Survival and Patron) factor in seasons as well, so that’s not a unique feature. Still, I love that genre so I’ll be paying attention to it

piracy is an access problem.

Tbf, not entirely. I used to use KManga and Shounen Jump, until I realized each of those services had more trackers than fucking Facebook. You shouldn’t trust paying customers like that

Looks like it’s got a lot of stars, so it’s probably solid

You’d be surprised. I’ve run into some really dogshit books that somehow get >4.5 on Goodreads.

Just go after every C-suite exec of Fortune-500 companies or has more than a billion dollars. You could find enough info on nearly all of them, and you’ll get >90% of the problem

I now also want Argentina to lose

He originally died at 34, so when he was 6yo as Rudy he was 40 in his head

Not yet, but yes

I don’t care who wins, I just want England to lose

Linux’s “security through obscurity”

I lost braincells reading this. The entire point of open source software is to have it visible and auditable, aka the exact opposite of security through obscurity.

If you want to bash OS’s for relying on STO, go after iOS and Windows. Those OS’s, being closed source, are the ones relying on it

Keep in mind that the rate of errors caught by AI will not be consistent. It will drop off over time.

While I’m no fan of AI, that has nothing to do with it. Adding AI to error detection suites is (mostly) fine so long as you don’t remove more tradional methods like code review, manually set up unit tests, and properly reviewing each failed test instead of just letting the AI slop in a patch.

My point is that any test you add to an existing codebase is going to catch a decent number of issues at first, then over time it will drop off as pre-existing issues get resolved. Then you’ll be left with the lower rate of new issues from updates.

AI isn’t a silver bullet. It (sometimes) is another tool in the toolbox.

“Pokemon baiter”? Wtf kind of clickbait headline is this?

Edit: Here’s an Archive link for those who don’t want to reward clickbait: web.archive.org/…/after-years-of-nintendo-lawsuit…

The ones who aren’t were already lost causes, meaning they were already fascists.

The series isn’t sarcastic like Starship Troopers or Helldivers. And yes, sarcasm is problematic because it’s supposed to be subtle enough that psome people don’t get the joke.

Instead, this show is really in your face about how Tanya is the villain. You won’t have the same problem

I want to preface this by saying it’s perfectly fine for anyone to not enjoy this series. I just want to mention this in case anyone is silently judging viewers:

It’s fine to enjoy shows with flawed/evil protagonists so long as both the creators and viewers recognize that fact. That style of protagonist can make for some brilliant writing.

Seeing as the title refers to Tanya as evil, and the fact she repeatedly horrifies and scares everyone else, I think it’s pretty hard for a viewer to see her as anything but a villain.

Tbf, the series started off being mainly based in WWI. That being said, they’ve slowly been bringing in more tech and figures from WWII.

Looks like 7 Days to Die but more cartoony and has robots instead of zombies

Ah yes, the most throrough form of recompense: a public apology ^/s

I don’t get why anime studios almost never try to keep the art style of the source manga. There’s been so many times that a manga with a unique artstyle with an anime that looks completely different, usually bland af

It’s kinda ‘meh’ tbh

A cereal

At the very least they need to have the leaders in their game have particularly vile things they do, to compare with Trump being a pedophile.

Tbh, I’m kinda surprised that Valve didn’t agree to work something out to build goodwill after the Steam Machine launch. I personally don’t think the SM’s price is too unreasonable, but it’s pretty obvious that a lot of people are disappointed, and this was an easy win

Why can’t this series just die

Jesus Christ, you need meds

Skywind is getting close to release. Skyblivion too

I watched the entirety of Soul Eater in about a day and a half. The only breaks I took were to sleep, shower, and use the restroom.
