  Regular slop, ground truth data structured slop

  It all flows downhill.

  Glad Australia is finally getting some decent fiber links up through Singapore.

  SEA-ME-WE3 is a joke and before IndigoWest and ASC, almost all of our international transit was via US.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bethesda has no plans to slow down on paid mods, Todd Howard says he wants to get Creations 'in front of more people'⁩ ⁨⁨17⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  I have no plans on buying any mods from Bethesda.

  Why?

  Because there is no guarantee of interoperability.

  With mods from Nexus and friends, I have no expectation of compatibility between gratis mods made by people in their free time. (even though mod authors usually go to great pains to make sure they’re compatible with most anything that isn’t another mod doing the same thing)

  If I’m paying for a ‘mod’ (really just DLC) - I expect a paid level of support.

  If GenZ has a BS meter, it’s wired backwards.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨To make video games for Gen Z, be authentic⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Viralbility, memebility, social media and coop are the heart of it

  So, ‘Authenticity’ really means ‘astroturfing’ in this context?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I hear Quarry Junction is lovely this time of year!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Not with that attitude Kif!

  Assemble the men, we’re turning off clipping.

  You’re right though, it’s a lot of cliff wall hugging or diverting to hidden valley.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I hear Quarry Junction is lovely this time of year!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  There is a safe route through there though, multiple in fact.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox just revealed Gaming Copilot is coming to "current-generation consoles" later this year⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll preface by saying I don’t think it’s a good idea, but-

  Fallout TV Show (and friends) have brought a lot of new people to gaming that might have eschewed it before, a lot of those people have on idea what they’re doing in videogames.

  An ‘AI assistant’ could help in a face-saving way (consider a 60 year old father who’s never played, and possibly chastised games in the past, is now getting into Fallout NV due to the TV show - asking their kids that they ridiculed about games would be embarrassing, but asking an AI may not be)

  Basically, letting old people who hated videogames, play videogames.

  Well modding is out of the question then, so the game is a hard drop from me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sony Faces $2.7 Billion UK Lawsuit Over PlayStation Store Monopoly Claims | TechPowerUp}⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No, go after them all.

  I personally don’t think Valve is abusing a monopoly position, but it should be tested nonetheless.

  Lootboxes and Gambling on the other hand, Gabe has a lot to answer for.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Consider a system with no DRAM' replaced by a 'recycling fiber loop': John Carmack envisages bold future to avoid AI-driven RAM crisis⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s an interesting idea, but what’s the floor size for a pair of 200TB/s fibre transceivers vs. 32GB of HBM?

  It’s it’s not significantly less, this doesn’t seem like it’d be particularly helpful outside the 200TB/s of streaming data.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Helldivers 2 Community needs to get a fucking grip on itself⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I know I’ll never be trying or buying Helldivers after this, the community as a whole are just bad people who idolise Nazi imagery.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox as a platform is officially dead⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If it’s allowed to run Linux, it’ll be better than the Steam Machine.

  Microslop, for their faults, actually does get custom hardware from AMD - Valve uses repurposed parts which is much cheaper for their smaller runs.

  I think it’ll be fully locked down though, but if it’s not - i’d wager it’ll make a better Steam Machine than Steam Machine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo is issuing refunds for Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition's poorly-received premium Switch 2 Edition upgrade⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Image - Video from Reddit.

  It only affects handheld mode, but there is shimmering and upscaling artifacts. In docked mode it’s fine.

  It’s not really worth AUD$8/US$5 though, it’s only a resolution and framerate upgrade (60fps mode already existed but was masked out, it’s been available on emulators using the official code since last year) and it’s still only SDR. Mario Odyssey had a free upgrade which added 4k/60 AND HDR.
