I just took a look at the store page and I see tons of games that look interesting to me that I had never heard of before.

My memory of the previous steam store was that it would be the same AAA games and popular indie titles over and over. Stuff that I had heard of and didn’t want to play, or stuff that was already on my wishlist. I would generally find out about new games from outside of steam.

So this seems like a really good improvement, and I love the personal release calendar too. This looks like a really good way to surface games that may otherwise have gone unnoticed.

Oh yeah, I can see your post (from 20th Sept) when I view the community from my instance, but not when I view it on your instance.

I can’t see a community with that name. Can you link it?

Release the server binary.

I’ve only recently adopted AI, and only sparingly, mainly for debugging, tests and help with documentation.

I wonder who came up with the name and the logo 🤣

Sounds about what I expected after seeing the trailer.

Have you tried both ping4 and ping6 to isolate whether it is ipv4 or ipv6 or both that’s filtering icmp? Also, can you ping other hosts from your server (ie. does the echo-reply get dropped at the input?)

You could also add logging when a packet is rejected so you can see it in your syslog. Put this at the end of your input chain:

log level warn prefix "Input Packet Dropped: "

I played it last year with my HOTAS and it’s a phenomenal game. I had no idea there was a VR mod. Where can we find it?

Does that make sense? Isn’t the point of Roblox that you play all these different games with the same group of friends using the same account and character or whatever? If they release them as standalone games then it removes the social incentive. It’s just another game engine at that point.

Just think about how you’d feel if your house burned down. It’s not worth it. Power strips made to safety standards are not expensive.

I would throw this in the bin, but first I would cut the cable so that nobody else tries to use it.

Oh dear.

What else have they done?

Sometimes people try to make a joke and they miss. I don’t think i would assume malice without additional red flags.

It does raise the issue that if you want to use a synth voice for a robot, are people going to skip your game just because of the AI disclosure without reading it? I can understand why they would be nervous about it.

To clarify the definition of “AI” that they’re referring to: they’re using Bayesian modelling. There’s not a single neural-network in sight in this paper.

It’s actually a great demonstration that you don’t need “AI” and a cluster of expensive GPUs to solve this kind of practical optimisation problem. We’ve had these kind of statistical modelling techniques for decades already.

These kinds of headlines are being used to justify the massive data-centre build out and investment, despite the fact that the amount of computation they needed to do for this paper was just normal number crunching that data scientists have been doing on their laptops since forever.

The paper: https://ojs.aaai.org/index.php/AAAI/article/view/41428/45389

This paper develops a Bayesian Experimental design for AM (aka BEAM) approach

BEAM is inspired by work on active search ( Jiang et al. 2018 )

The referenced paper (Jiang et al 2018) is the best place to read about the method that they used.

Personally for me, the spirit of self-hosting is incompatible with using Cloudflare and Synology services, but I understand that less technical users may prefer commercial services.

What’s the story with the creepy hands?

Some commentary:

Until the CEO resigns, I’m not interested.

That’s a lot of em-dashes.

The author of this article just released a book on this subject. I wonder if it has as many em-dashes as his article.

FYI Piefed has this feature, as well as post filtering by keyword

I see your post from piefed.social, so federation is working here. Good job.

I would love to watch a GDC talk about how the engine works.

That was the most mid trailer I’ve seen for a game.

I hadn’t heard of this one before, thanks for posting.

This is still a problem for OSS licensing, since in order to license a work you need to be the copyright holder.

This might mean that OSS projects find it even more difficult to assert their licenses against violators in court, since they would need to prove that the part of the code that was copied was not AI output.

Banning the output of AI tools in OSS codebases is a sensible move for any project that actually cares about enforcing the license that their code is released under.

Spoiler tag please.

Half Life: Linux

Back in the 90s I sent a fan email to John Romero, and he was gracious enough to send me a reply. I don’t think I still have an archive of my emails from that long ago, but it left me with an impression of him as being a good guy. I wouldn’t be too hard on him about “being relevant”. As one of the founding members of id software, it’s not surprising that news outlets will pick up on his comments, whether you think he deserves it or not.

You wrote this shit with an LLM, didn’t you?
