See, that’s what’s weird to me. I thought the dialogue was terrible, but the voice actors were doing their best (and were good). Sort of the same thing as the dialogue in star wars 2&3 making hayden seem like a terrible actor, when he was quite good if given a better script.

Like, imagine working on a big murder mystery where a man was found dead inside a locked room with no windows. You gather tons of clues, interview countless people searching for a motive, spend a lot of time putting together all the pieces and… It turns out he simply tripped and hit his head.
That’s a great way to put it. The game’s ‘feeling’ wasn’t managed well, I think. They did some great atmospheric tricks, with some good tension by using the very fact that you’re playing a game to lead you down a particular thought pattern. I even thought it was a good ending that fit everything, but it just felt like that switch in tone you describe wasn’t really done in a way that was pleasant to experience.

I mean, it’s multiplayer, sure, but it’s a different sort of multiplayer than most. I freaking love disarming the bomb.
I’m sort of disappointed to hear about the long dark though. I’ve had that one on my backlog for when I finish the current survival crafting game I’m working through.

I remember a medical friend rolling his eyes at the show when it was airing, because usually he could guess what the end diagnosis could be from the symptoms. House was just really good at making the drama about the doctor interject and extend the eyeball time into the hour long episode

I’m curious, is self-hosting invidious even worth it? Youtube can still see every video you pull through, right, and now it’s linked to a static ip address associated with you?

Dailies, and other similar grinds, are one of the worst crimes against humanity in mmos. Surely we can move beyond the ‘take twenty hours to level up your character so you can progress’ idea that crystallized in jrpgs and now sits in the center of the late game experience like a giant aragog sucking your enjoyment. Let me just log in and raid, gorramit!

Okay, look, I loved my grandparents, but spending time with them at the end was horrifying and I really would have watched paint dry in preference.
Kids, dogs, and partner could also have some time off my hands by taking care of certain limited tasks. Cooking, cleaning, wiping ass… Don’t tell me you want to cook every breakfast, lunch, and dinner compared to playing a board game with the dog while the android dices your onions and peppers and the partner and kids take a nap on the ceiling.
- Comment on New ntfy.sh v2.18.0 was written by AI 3 weeks ago:
I’m halfway with you, and halfway just considering that people think it’s relevant to include a tl;dr in a barely three paragraph comment. The feeling with tl;dr for me is a summary similar to a closing paragraph, and if anyone thinks that one sentence (“Ai coding can help a lot in accelerating software development.”) is somehow worthy of being summarized as if the point was proven (“Ai can be very powerful in the right hands”)… well, it sounds like shit because it is shit. Maybe it’s ai, maybe it’s just a really rushed dude making a throwaway comment in the fediverse, and maybe it’s just a person who is confident enough in their mind that they forget they haven’t made an actually decent argument outside of their past, and concluding as if they brought that past argument forth here is eye-raising.
Considering he’s on his own instance… I’m going to bet the context is somewhere between throwaway comment and invoking past assertions without citing them.

What kind of engineer? Because while the physical world, with all of its mechanical and civil and aerospace engineers, has its shit figured out with professional standards and very clearly defined responsibilities and duties, the world of social engineers, tire engineers, procurement engineers, supply chain engineers, sandwich engineers, project engineers, lead engineers, and yes, software engineers, definitely is a little too loose with any definition for me to care that these ceos were once ‘engineers.’

Nah, mickey’s old hornypostings were characterized by him wanting to make up a story about something. It’s too bad we lost nsfw, it was a good archive of the idiocy. Poorly written, rambling sex stories in reply to a poorly written, 12 year old’s question about sex.

Yes.

To comment on what you said, how is it people can argue all day long like morons and dig into their beliefs, but somehow AI manages to change peoples minds and get them to think differently? What exactly is it doing?
Acting like a servant, confidante, therapist/authority figure, and your best friend, while appearing to be competent and knowledgeable about everything that passes through your mind. And it does it in a way that no human could mimic, because it doesn’t have it’s own thoughts, doesn’t get tired, and is never gone when you come looking for it.
A chatbot can agree with you a hundred times over and simply move you along one step at a time in those hundred times. A human would lose their shit and walk away groaning the moment you try to tell them that the sky is actually down, and the ground ‘up,’ and it’s all just a matter of perspective.

Positive affirmations are very much embedded in the core of a person’s psyche. Chatbots are nearly obsequious in how much they will fawn over the user.

I found an industrial sized box of them, and snapped them up. I’ve been doling them out to some poor ozzies stuck in my neck of the woods for months now. I think the end price was about two dollars a box.

I typically like my food desserts, compared to my just desserts. What is your issue with food desserts? Key lime pies not for you? Tres leches cakes send you into a spiral? Do peach cobblers drive you wild? Is a bowl of ice cream with sprinkles worse than jezebel outside your window?

I can tell you from personal experience that there exists a very happy corporate servant who is happy to give footage to police. The security cameras in some stores are shit because the owner is cheap (this is the case with most gas stations).

I’d be curious about that. I’m definitely a 2-4 person, but I generally fill up the toilet when I go. Well, sort of, because of that whole siphoning level thing.

It’s extremely prevalent here on Lemmy/Piefed as well. Actual discussion between opposing viewpoints is rare, and usually cut short by lemmy.ml and lemmy.world and rarely lemmy.blahaj.zone mods.
Fixed that for ya.
