There is @fedia@fedia.io but that place seems inactive. I couldn’t find a status page listed in their sidebar. When I was looking around it was very slow so it isn’t just a problem with you

When I meant missing parts I meant stuff I would notice missing while playing the game with no dlc. This happens a lot in eu4 and almost never in ck3. Although I might try roads to power after hearing about it!
- Comment on Europa Universalis V: Official Announcement Trailer 1 week ago:
That’s fair. Although Laith said that Paradox is letting him say whatever he wants, if I got invited to help announce the sequel to one of my favourite games I would be a bit biased. With every video I watched I audibly said wow at least once. I did not expect that many features and depth from a paradox game at release! Makes me wonder what they have left out to sell in DLC. Also makes me worry about how much time developing those features took away from bug fixing…
- Comment on Europa Universalis V: Official Announcement Trailer 1 week ago:
Was it Laith’s video? I just finished watching it and he said that it will be a great game if they fix all the bugs. Asking paradox to release a game that isn’t buggy is pretty scary. But it does look like an amazing game and not just a stripped down version of the game that came before it (like vic 2/3 and ck 2/3)
- Comment on Europa Universalis V: Official Announcement Trailer 1 week ago:
With their more recent games they have gotten less bad with their dlc, the base games seem a lot more feature rich (I could easily play stellaris, vic 3 and ck3 without feeling like I am missing parts of the game. With eu4, the dlc seem necessary). They will definitely release too much dlc, but it probably (hopefully) won’t be as bad as eu4

Although so far I haven’t heard many negative things, from journalists or youtubers. But I also didn’t hear many negative things about civ7 before launch…

I don’t believe that, it’s way to saturated

Unrelated but a few Nando’s near me (not sure if it is all of the UK’s Nando’s) started offering a fanta orange flavoured sauce to replace the regular peri peri stuff on our chicken.
No one I went with last time wanted to try it so I don’t know how nice it is but it sounds disgusting!

It’s a spinoff from titanfall, a series with a lot of cool world building, it would be a bit weird to have no story at all.
It’s also a live service so they need to

The reason they did this is probably because Microsoft needed a Bethesda game that isn’t starfield to sell gamepass and tes6 is so early on it doesn’t need many developers yet so they can afford developing this instead

I think we have more spicy then bland Indian food but the most popular dish, a tikka masala (which is more of a hybrid dish than just Indian) is very bland.

Most people can’t host their own AI. The only AI most people are aware of and the models that are pushed in everyone’s face are the horrible ones. I think a blanket hatred for all AI is stupid but it isn’t stupid to assume an AI is unethical because it most likely is, especially if it is a commercial one tech bros are posting about on corporate social media.
As long as more people aren’t being told about the possibility of ethical AI there will be a large group of people wishing for its failure, especially since it has ruined so many parts of the internet, with both a locally hosted model or a model like chatGPT.

Because we have less money now than when they were flying overhead.
We do eat a little more now though, we have really bland Indian food!

- Comment on can't beat the classics 4 weeks ago:
The stuff that gets made fun of by most anti AI people is AI “art” that people try to argue is equivalent to real, human art.
The main reason people hate AI in general is because nearly all models use data that was taken without permission of the owner of it.
It isn’t equivalent to bottled water, it is equivalent to the chocolate industry, it isn’t essential, so I will wait until an AI that was trained ethically without stealing data is made and doesn’t try to replace human art.
- Comment on can't beat the classics 4 weeks ago:
I am very strongly anti-AI, I think it has some legitimate uses that have probably saved and improved a lot of lives (like AlphaFold). My main problem (and most people’s main problem with it) is the way it has been trained with stolen data and art.
Since I don’t know much about non-corporate AI I am interested to know how an open-source LLM just trained off of your bookmarks would work, I assumed it would still need to be trained off of stolen data still so it can form sentences as well as the more popular models but I may be wrong, maybe the volume of data needed for a system like that is small enough that it can just be trained off of data willingly donated to it? I doubt it though.

I was going to defend us by pointing to how some of the most popular places to eat here are focused on spicy foods (curry houses) but when I thought about it more… you’re right :(
The most popular dishes there are usually the less spicy ones (but they taste really nice and would probably taste even better if they were more spicy)
