- Comment on Left 4 Dead creator teasing new four player co-op shooter 1 day ago:
I did enjoy it but I only maybe put 10 hours into it or so. I think it tried to be more than L4D with all the perks/cards or whatever but IMO people just want a zombie survival game you can spontaneously jump in and out of with some friends

Is Taco Bell way worse in the US compared to Canada? I've never gotten sick from it here

It sounds very American

Hahaha it was The Show in Byward. I love clubs but that one ain't it for me. I'd rather be at City at Night

This game legit gives me that nostalgic Minecraft feeling I crave. It's an incredible game

I was once in a club where it was just a big room with some urinals and toilets. No dividers or walls anywhere to be seen. I have never been back to that club

- Comment on Deal to get ChatGPT Plus for whole of UK discussed by Open AI boss and minister 1 week ago:
Wtf? Are they going to get an Amazon Prime subscription for everyone as well? If its that important to them that everyone have full access to an LLM then why not host one nationally that people can use

But I don't live in the US?
- Comment on Taylor Swift’s new album comes in cassette. Who is buying those? 2 weeks ago:
I'm a Millennial/GenZ cusper and I think its just the desire to go back to a simpler analogue lifestyle. I've also bought a few cassettes from concerts at times when I couldn't carry around a full vinyl the rest of the night

The whole concept of sororities and fraternities is so weird to me
- Comment on Anyone else from Europe feels the same while browsing the "All" feed? 3 weeks ago:
I'm not European but I am Canadian and I don't know if Americans realise how annoying it is that any general community like "politics" or "news" is specifically American as per the rules. I was really hoping we'd leave the US defaultism behind on Reddit
- Comment on Jokes on you, I don't want to work 3 weeks ago:
My current job had me pretty much interview with every member of my now team. It was insane and I'm happy I didn't have to do it while unemployed and desperately searching. I can't imagine going through that repeatedly
- Comment on Jokes on you, I don't want to work 3 weeks ago:
Or setting up an interview and then saying "sorry the company decided that they're not looking to hire anyone right now" a day or two before. Why does that keep happening to me?
- Comment on Have you encountered this? 3 weeks ago:
The PIN thing really confused me when I visited the US (right before Trump got in again). Like even the places that did support chip would just accept my payment without having me enter anything. First time I bought something I thought the machine glitched because I didn't even realise a payment could be made without the PIN
- Comment on Have you encountered this? 3 weeks ago:
Unfortunately...
- Comment on Have you encountered this? 3 weeks ago:
In Canada they just bring you the payment machine and it asks the percent you want to tip. There is a physical bill but its only used by the server to know what to enter really

- Comment on Google Gemini struggles to write code, calls itself “a disgrace to my species” 3 weeks ago:
I know Lemmy seems to very anti-AI (as am I) but we need to stop making the anti-AI talking point "AI is stupid". It has immense limitations now because yes, it is being crammed into things it shouldn't be, but we shouldn't just be saying "its dumb" because that's immediately written off by a sizable amount of the general population. For a lot of things, it is actually useful and it WILL be taking peoples jobs, like it or not (even if they're worse at it). Truth be told, this should be a utopic situation for obvious reasons
I feel like I'm going crazy here because the same people on here who'd criticise the DARE anti-drug program as being completely un-nuanced to the point of causing the harm they're trying to prevent are doing the same thing for AI and LLMs
My point is that if you're trying to convince anyone, just saying its stupid isn't going to turn anyone against AI because the minute it offers any genuine help (which it will!), they'll write you off like any DARE pupil who tried drugs for the first time.

- Comment on GitHub CEO delivers stark message to developers: Embrace AI or get out. 4 weeks ago:
Copilot is shit
Yes and no. I find its terrible at solving more complex problems but its great at writing out tests for a function/view that covers every flow. My team went from having like 40% (shit) coverage to every PR having every case tested (inb4 they're not good tests, they are good)
With that being said, fuck CEOs and fuck AI.

No its there that's the "unnamed state". We finally found New Zealand
- Comment on GOG Launches NSFW Game Giveaway "To Raise Awareness On Censorship In Gaming" 4 weeks ago:
That completely misses the point of this giveaway. Even ignoring that, these games are being donated by the devs. I'm not sure why a studio not affected by this at all would donate their game fighting this (I know a few might on principal but still)
- Comment on Next BioShock Game Suffers From More Development Hell After Failing an Executive Review 4 weeks ago:
Not saying you're wrong but I do feel like there's still so much of the universe to explore, even if the main arc is complete. I would love to learn more about Rapture
- Comment on Kill Them With Fire 4 weeks ago:
I feel weird about this sort of joke because it's exactly the same kind of humour the right wing has been using about the left for decades. Its almost like a "boy who cried wolf" sort of situation except it was the wolves who were crying 😅
Also, while its true, if seems sort of low brow for such a serious situation (even if its 💯% true)
