And your being a xenophobic piece of shit not respecting what a country wants to be called.
A country gets to choose its own name and terms. Just cause our leader is currently more of a dipshit then normal doesn’t make it ok to tell people what they are allowed to call themselves.
Turkey just had this fucking problem, can people just stop being racist xenophobic shit stains and respect what others are called?
The term American has been used as a slur against the people of the colonies for hundreds of years. Just cause we reclaimed it now you lot are pissed that your slur isn’t working against us anymore and want to move to a new one that doesn’t even respect our own wishes because we have yet a shit leader yet again.
I don’t see fucks like you calling to change what China calls themselves, or to stop people from claiming to be European instead of French or German.
Our country is named after our continent, it’s been that way for hundreds of years now. It ain’t changing and fucking mislabeling is annoying as fuck.

And nothing is stoping the people of other countries in the Americas from calling themselves American.
Iv met plenty of people from European countries that have called themselves European. Why the fuck can they call themselves after their Continent but we can’t?
How about you fuck off and not tell an entire people to change their name that they have used for hundreds of years just because you have a stick up your xenophobic asshole.
Yeah our leader is a right dipshit and a horrid human. But WE get to fucking decide what WE are called. Not you, so fuck off.

Thinking the avg lemmy user plays games that are newer then 2008 is were you fucked up.
People that use this platform basically are glorified luddites when it comes to gaming unless you go to extremely specific gaming areas. Then it’s like 2018 instead of 2008.

I play too much path of exile for that to be acceptable sadly
The sheer glut of load zones means even a spinning disk is unacceptable. I literally saved over an hour in time over a weekend back in the day going from ddr3 to 4, and three hours over a weekend going from a spinning disk to a solid state.
And the games only gotten larger in the last few years…
Ddr3 is great! Till you have to deal with a lot of load zones. ):

Yeah but lumo is basically just a side gimmick thing that isn’t integrated with the rest of their suite.
It’s basically the equivalent of a self hosted small LLM that you don’t have to fuck around with setting up.
There’s nothing inherently wrong with LLMs as a tool. The problem is the misuse, misapplication and over scaling of them.
If they were all just one off tools like lumo that are basically slightly more advanced digital assistants they would be fine.

Honestly a less easy to accept dialog would go a long way.
Just make it require ADB. Iv had my grandfather fall victim to a crypto scam that got him to install a app on his phone.
As much as we hate it, google is the only one who has any power to prevent abuse of the stupid, elderly and gullible. Someone has too.
There is a line of going to far to protect people that just makes things worse for everyone. But the reality is, our freedom comes at the expense of others freedom.
Finding the balance is hard.

Looking though there account. I think they actually are just insane, like unironically. They seem to have a rather unhinged grasp on reality
They come across very strongly as a 16 year old furry who unironically believes their own delusions. Even by trans furry standards. They seem unreasonably unhinged.

Very rarely is superior tech remotely a factor in how good a product is or how well it’s received.

Ai flagging for human review is likely the best option.
The problem is that the humans reviewing things are biased, assholes with no sense of humor.

Dude was an absolute piece of shit.

Life pro tip, never fucking use the self clean function on a stove.
It kills most stoves and breaks them. The entire concept of the function is basically stupid as fuck.
It also causes more house fires then you would believe. Not to mention other problems.
Hell most user manuals for ovens with self cleaning actually tell you to NOT use it as it’s dangerous.

Valve doesn’t use any form of script currency tho. Everything is straight government currency.
Steam wallet is just a glorified gift card with USD/euro/etc
So weird you call valve out on this one when they literally are the sole exception to this problem.

Fortnite like roblox and warcraft 3 at this point are almost entirely played for their custom games.
Some of the most popular games of all time in terms of player base are currently roblox custom games and fortnite custom games right now.
It’s truely absurd how many players some of these games pull in.

- Comment on Hooded Horse ban AI-generated art in their games: "all this thing has done is made our lives more difficult" 2 weeks ago:
Entire problem with AI is literally a legal one. The entire moral outrage that everyone has for it has only been able to be sourced back to legal arguments. Hell even every philosophical argument being made all over the place still stems down to the legalities of it.
If you can find a single moral or philosophical argument to be made that does not have a rooted bias in the law then you might have a reason to feel dirty. But realistically you only feel dirty because your being told to feel dirty by idiots all around you.
If you hold copyright to that high of an esteem that you feel disgraced and sullied for violating it even indirectly then yeah, feel dirty. But I really doubt you hold the draconian laws of copyright to such a high morale standing as to let your self worth be hurt from it.
But even still, beyond ai, every tool you use in your work flow is almost guaranteed to be built off the back of abuse, slave labor, theft, and exploitation at some level. If we threw away tools and progress just because they were built by assholes we would have no tools at all.
Fight for better regulation, and more care in the next step of advancement. But to throw away tools is just not realistic, we live in reality unfortunately.
If the tool is genuinely useless to you then don’t use it. If it is genuinely useful then use it. If you can find a better tool then use that instead.

You just made a fallacy of relative privation. While they no fallacious argument. They used hyperbole which is not a fallacy.
So shut the fuck up, if you want to call people out or make an argument. Actually make a point and don’t just drop to attacking people’s character with accusations of fallacy. It’s fucked up and does nothing but make you look stupid at the best of times.
