- Comment on Judge hands Lambo.com to Lamborghini after ruling owner acted in bad faith 4 days ago:
How is a cyber squatter worse than companies who squat on other things like money or diamonds.
The man bought the domain and if lambo wants it, they can buy it from him.
How long until other companies start trying to get any domain name that is part of their name now?
- Comment on RAM prices soar, but popular Windows 11 apps are using more RAM due to Electron, Web components 5 days ago:
I haven’t played them myself, but I think they look cool.
If someone wants to be a purist, let them get an original system and a crt. Otherwise, they can just shut up about.

US 2 or JP 2?
US 2 is so good, but the late game seeed to have a difficulty spike so I never finished it.

I’d love to see games do this because they are clearly not being optimized. Can’t wait to see that not happen.
Good thing, I’m happy with retro games and the occasional indie.

I left windows just 2 months ago to use a MacBook for work.
In both computers I had 16gb of ram.
Windows usage was significantly higher in regard to ram usage.
I use today Linux is way more efficient, but after seeing similar efficiency with Mac, I’m changing my language to say Windows is extremely inefficient.

- Comment on Advice on which PS3 model to get? 1 week ago:
I live in a third would country and getting games here could be difficult if not impossible for some titles.
So, I may need to resort to backups. It sounds like ps3hen would be suitable for me.
I don’t plan to play any ps2 games, I have a ps2 already.

- Comment on Do you cheat in video games? 1 week ago:
Haha, that never occurred to me. That’s a cool one.
I wanted to make it shoot plasma grenades, but at first it just blew up in my face, then it lobbed plasma grenades in front of me.
Eventually I changed the impact of the bullet on each object in the game so it would explode like a plasma grenade instead of giving off the impact animation.
Took forever.
I wonder if I can still install that old version anywhere and mess with the hex codes.
- Comment on Do you cheat in video games? 1 week ago:
In the original halo on PC I modded the game so the rifle was shoot out banshees instead of bullets. I also made the warthog fly. I guess now that I’m typing this is was not really cheating as it was a 1v1 match and we got to screw around with the mods is did.

I do not really understand what you want to do. But I think you want to use an existing AI model and create your own personality from it.
Is that correct?
If so, you want to download ollama and run it. Then you will also download and run sillytavern.
In Sillytavern, you can create different characters and give them different personalities.
This does require some technical knowledge, but it does not require you to code anything. You will also need a GPU with ha decent amount of ram for any complexity.

Some billionaires are saying shorter work weeks be used of AI, some are saying longer.
If this just a way for us to be “grateful” for things to remain the same?

- Comment on Nearly 90% of Windows Games now run on Linux, latest data shows — as Windows 10 dies, gaming on Linux is more viable than ever 2 weeks ago:
I’m not sure I understand what you mean, but if I understand you correctly, I think the same logic can be applied to using n OS of choice.
I still think it’s an issue of priority.
- Comment on Windows 11's adoption is much slower compared to Windows 10, claims Dell 2 weeks ago:
Anyone who asks me about this is getting the “At least try Linux for free first before buying a new computer.
Another example I have is that my mother-in-law is retired. You think she needs a new computer? Nope! She’s getting Linux before a new computer. The only other option for her would be an iPad since she’s just browsing the web anyway.

It suggests that if AI companies unfairly exploit musicians’ intellectual property to train their generative AI models, the creative ecosystem will be wrecked and original music silenced.
I kind of disagree with this.
There may be less people making music when money is their main motivator. But there will still be people making music.
Maybe we will lose low effort artists but gain great music by passionate people.
I’m not a musician, but these protests are going to be completely ineffective.

Thanks, I did give that a try and didn’t have much of an opinion of it. I’ll give it another try though.

Thanks for this list.
I played the Metroid game and I love that series.
I’m not sure I liked smt4 too much, but I’m not familiar with the others. I’ll check them out.
I got a 3dsxl about 6 months ago for some Pokémon action, now I need something new.

About a year ago, Canva tried to raise their prices significantly.
I forget exactly, but I pay for an account and can have 5 people on my team. They said they would start charging for each team member or something like that.
One person said their cot went up from like $100 to $600, maybe the numbers are off, but it’s close to how severe there increase was.
There was so much backlash over it that they decided to keep the old pricing structure.

What good are those 3 games you want to play if they don’t work on the OS you want to use?
It’s just a matter of priority, about 8 years ago, I just made the decision to not play a game if it doesn’t work on Linux.

I guess this explains the slow loading times for various things.
