- Comment on A Steam dev is deleting his own game after girlfriend made him realize AI is bad 4 days ago:
I think he means trying to make a proof of concept to get an artist to do the work.
If I ever get round to making games, I will need an art guy and a sound guy, because I know full well I cant do anything remotely good there. But I cant afford to pay an art/sound guy, so theyre not going to just do work for a random guy on the promise of a cut of the profits because what profits? I’m just a guy with a dream and a promise.

I’ve got no idea if it was being used “maliciously” in China, rebels using it to garner support or some shit idk, but its survived purely on the Streissand effect here in the west.

Yeah no I’m with you 100%, I’ve just lost count how many times ive seen this particular thread of conversation.

I think project Gotham racing had an achievement to be #1 on the world leader board so I doubt thats going to be happening even if they’re still online.

Whats even more stupid is that in less than 100 years he’ll be dead anyway making the whole endeavour absolutely futile.

- Comment on Media zombies would be largely harmless if they lacked teeth and claws. 1 week ago:
Almost definitely. Im not in here trying to say its a mad hoax from China to install the NWO and cripple our economy while injecting us with the 5G or whatever the hell the conspiracy nuts were saying. I was saying we saw people deliberately going out of their way to do some stupid shit while we were at the height of the fear.
If zombies happen we’ll see the “hug a Z challenge” or people taking it in turns to stick a rotted finger down their throat or something.

All excellent points.

Im not saying it wasnt bad, just in the very early days they were telling us it was going to be armageddon bad. The dead outnumbering the survivors and shit like that.
- Comment on Media zombies would be largely harmless if they lacked teeth and claws. 1 week ago:
I used to think zombies were a ridiculous concept. Like just walk away briskly and youll be fine.
Then when coronavirus happened and we were being told to stay inside and keep away from eachother because everybody’s dying we saw people going out of their way to lick things in supermarkets.
Granted it wasnt as catastrophically bad as we were led to believe, but we saw how people reacted when we thought it was.

The fun part is that you can just decide thats what youe life currently is. Your memories of friends and family? All plants. Your lack of kung fu skills? Deliberately dormant until you receive the activation phrase.

I can tell youre being facetious but youre right on the money. We’re our own worst enemies
- Comment on Are hierarchies inherently bad in all aspects? or are there domains where heirarchies are good to have? 1 week ago:
Hierarchies are brilliant and necessary in almost all things. The problem we have with them is that people just want to be at the top, and the type of person most likely to make it there aren’t the kinds of people we want there.

Thanks that makes a lot of sense.
But also, Im very much out of the loop on a lot of this, and will do some surface-level research later because that whole last sentence is a fucking trip

- Comment on AI-Induced RAM Crunch Could Push Next PlayStation and Xbox Past 2028 2 weeks ago:
I dont want consoles to “get better” i want them to do more.
kinect was great and they killed it
1v100 was great and is kill
360 was promising us a virtual economy where pseudo-modders could make skins and sell them and they decided no
mixxer seemed great and is kill
picture in picture was great for waiting for games with really low player count but is kill
where’s WoW
they stopped shipping headsets with xbox and now voice chat is basically dead.
basically everyone has phones now but theres next to no uses other than jackbox and dance game
the avatars were pretty sweet, a nice cute MTX-fueled self-insertion gimmick.
These are jsut xbox related because peasantry. I could go on and on if I put some thought into it, and what’s worse is that a lot of my gripes there ACTUALLY EXISTED. They saw it could be done, did it, then just said “lol no”. I dont know what game theyre playing, just creating previous work to hoard patents or some shit, but we’ve got perverted by graphics over the ages.
We marveled at shiny graphics/polygon count/draw distance/objects on screen because it was the most surface-level, obvious, in-your-face evidence of improvements. Nobody but tech enthusiasts really care about it. The big improvements we actually gave a shit about are the quality of life features, control schemes and shit.
Goldeneye 007 on the N64 was considered a masterpiece, and is still looked on some 30 years later with nostalgia about the good old days. Go play it if you get a chance its near unplayable because the controls are weird. The dated graphics will be jarring but theyre not what irks you.
Stardew Valley is a straight rip-off of Harvest Moon, but go play a HM game from before SV. So much of it is janky and weird.
They’ll be saying theres nowhere left to go because computing power has basically plateaud but there is so much more room for improvement and innovation.
