I’ve listened to a couple audiobooks where the author did the voice and i liked them. They know how phrases need to sound like better then an AI i would assume.
- Comment on Android’s next big feature turns your phone into a desktop 1 week ago:
I’m excited to see how this will pair with android XR to potentially have a good desktop experience on the go. Just have to carry the headset wich i already do and mouse and keyboard for better controls.

- Comment on The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered - Official Trailer 3 weeks ago:
I’ve seen people get pretty good results but i don’t think i had the right settings so i wasn’t able to make it run. I have a 3090 wich is pretty much the minimum for that XD i also tried to run the game in 8K just to see how it would look with no luck. I ended up playing at 4K medium settings for now. I’ll definitely try again tomorrow with someone’s UEVR injector profile.

- Comment on ChatGPT spends 'tens of millions of dollars' on people saying 'please' and 'thank you', but Sam Altman says it's worth it 3 weeks ago:
I agree. That’s why i personnally stopped using queries just to thank it but i don’t know what the absolute best practice is when it comes to LLms.

You are confusing consent with respect. Respect can be being afraid to put your fingers where they might get cut even after using a machine for 30 years. The moment you lose that fear and start doing whatever you want with the machine is when the troubles start. Respect can also be oiling a tool that needs to be for better longevity instead of leaving them full of rust at the bottom of the toolbox.
- Comment on Almost 19% of Japanese people in their 20s have spent so much money on gacha they struggled with covering living expenses, survey reveals - AUTOMATON WEST 3 weeks ago:
I played a gatcha game with a friend when we didn’t know what gacha was and we where trying to build our teams by just playing the game and there where always massive difficulty walls that couldn’t be passed. So we both ended up spending around $500 CAD on that game and farming with our phones open on the game 24/7. We stopped after we understood how predatory the model was.

Respecting your tools is a pretty fundamental thing to learn. Whatever that respect looks like for one tool or another.
- Comment on What's a cancelled game you really miss? 4 weeks ago:
I really miss Megalith. It was a VR MOBA. The small team had to drop the project to work on contracts that made money.
- Comment on Are PC handhelds like Steam Deck really competitors for Switch 2? 5 weeks ago:
Honestly for me it came down to where i prefer to buy my games. Steam games will follow me for the forseeable future and switch games will not. I gave my coworker my nintendo account too with over $500 of games on it and i was like that’s it. That’s enough sunk cost that i will lose.
- Comment on Are PC handhelds like Steam Deck really competitors for Switch 2? 5 weeks ago:
I gave away my switch to a coworker because i didn’t really like it to buy a steam deck. So i’d say for me yes they where competitors. I use a lenovo legion go now.

Careful with what you ask. You might get it for almost free but the debt that comes with it won’t be free. I’m pretty sure your comment can be used in court to bind you to the deal too XD

- Comment on PC gamers spend 92% of their time on older games, oh and there are apparently 908 million of us now 1 month ago:
If you like roguelikes like ancient dungeon i would highly suggest until you fall and for a more story based game if you haven’t played lone echo 1 and 2 you’re in for a treat.

- Comment on Clone Drone in the Danger Zone is incredibly creative and unexpectedly hilarious with tons of slapstick comedy 2 months ago:
There’s also a VR version now called clone drone in the hyperdome and i really enjoyed it! People who played the original say that the flat screen game is a lot different and that the difficulty is better balanced. Maybe i’ll get it at some point.

- Comment on Steam now warns about Early Access that have not been updated in months. 2 months ago:
I’m still in the same run and i’m doing really good compared to all my other god runs. I’m at 15 orbs and 17 new progress. I killed the forgotten, the master of masters, mecha kolmi and tiny for the first time. I just read that i won’t be able to go in NG+ since i can’t go over 11 orbs when it’s the first time so i’ll try to do as much in this world before i have to end the run. I have a seed so i’ll look up a guide or that dunk video to do the sun quest stuff too if i can.
- Comment on Every hour children spend on screens raises chance of myopia, study finds 2 months ago:
Same i was reading a lot as a kid and have been on screens a lot since but my vision isn’t horrible. Left eye is definitely near sighted. But overall it’s ok. I definitely try to spend less time on my phone wich seems to be the worst for me.
