- Comment on How to set up a decentralized game/chat server 1 day ago:
Not seeing LGSM, so dropping it here: linuxgsm.com
I have a Matrix server with Jitsi installed, works for gaming and everything else.
Also, some older games (like Warcraft 3) require L2 connections to play multiplayer, which I managed to get working with OpenVPN, for both Linux and Windows players.

- Comment on OpenAI plans to launch an AI-only TikTok clone 1 week ago:
You should not train on AI generated content.
Also, I expect older generations to fall for this.
- Comment on The Video-Game Industry Has a Problem: There Are Too Many Games 1 week ago:
In building specifically, I only played OpenTTD and Dwarf Fortress.
And I paid for DF after sinking most hours.

- Comment on Zuckerberg hailed AI ‘superintelligence’. Then his smart glasses failed on stage | Matthew Cantor 1 week ago:
Git and even GitLab does its job quite well.
IDEs do A LOT of heavy lifting for many devs.
AI was supposed to boost productivity and eventually replace developers altogether.
One of those things is not like the otters.

- Comment on YouTube will restore channels banned for COVID and election misinformation 2 weeks ago:
Yes.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
They did not say what the biggest companies use the AI for.
Article said companies in the server supply chain are happy, and that executives are happy, and some companies not using LLMs have actual use cases, but that’s it.
- Comment on Google Play is getting a Gemini-powered AI Sidekick to help you in games 2 weeks ago:
Oh but if they could create an assistant that would do 100% of tech interactions with you, from web searches to shopping to communication, they would capture the entire globe by the balls forever.
And that is a sweet deal. I expect OpenAI to start selling ad slots in their responses, just because they already are a brand name and most people don’t use other bots. And I expect it to spread everywhere.
My hope for humanity has fallen so low, that I expect people to just accept it all.
- Comment on Google Play is getting a Gemini-powered AI Sidekick to help you in games 2 weeks ago:
The real answer:
companies put billions into the AI craze hoping to achieve AGI and ‘winning’ the race to stop the open internet from existing, and capturing every user into their controlled bubble.
Now that the reality of LLMs not being able to deliver that, they need to find some excuse to explain why that was not a dumb investment.

- Comment on His message touched me. I feel no empathy 3 weeks ago:
I’m not saying everything can be ranked. There is a gray zone, there is an acceptable zone, and there is a line, which always must exist, and when anyone crosses it, they must be removed from society.
That’s why we have justice system.
Preaching hate on innocents is not legally forbidden (well, depends on the country), but it is morally wrong.
- Comment on His message touched me. I feel no empathy 3 weeks ago:
He took money to harm others. There are few more evil positions.

Do you remember Bush? Detaining citizens indefinitely without proper due process?
Nobody stopped it then, Obama let it live, now it’s growing to scale. But none of this started now, it’s been there for decades.
