That’s so wild. I met one person and I was just following them around to see where the “AI” was taking them. I thought it was very advanced for an older game 😅 I think I may not be the smartest

Wait that other person I saw was a real person and not an NPC?? 🤯
- Comment on Which side are you on? 1 week ago:
- is commonly used for multiplication in computer programming, so it’s probably that. Also in your calculator app
- Comment on If one conjoined twin commits a murder without the consent of their twin, will both have to go to prison or nobody? 5 weeks ago:
it’s pretty common to call twinks “half’s”
That is a brilliant typo
- Comment on Hey there gamers 1 month ago:
It’s not split in half, it’s reversed, which is why both are equal to S. If you just took half, then 1 + 2 + … would not equal 100 + 99 + … and so they both wouldn’t be equal to S.
Instead of halving the list, they just reversed it and set it to 2S later, which they then half. So no typo here.

It’s not a field worth getting into. AI will soon make you redundant

I find no part of driving through a city relaxing, but this would be the most relaxing, yes
- Comment on Every anthropomorphic character is some kind of animal-ape hybrid 5 months ago:
Oh wait I think the shower thought is that a human or ape had to fuck whatever it was to make it
- Comment on Every anthropomorphic character is some kind of animal-ape hybrid 5 months ago:
I get what you’re trying to say but anthropomorphic literally means “having form like a man” so it kind of just reads like “every animal made to resemble a human is some kind of animal-human hybrid”

What’s wrong with people having it easy if they’re not exploiting others?

Thank you! I use DuckDuckGo on Android because I like it’s simplicity but maybe I’ll change to Firefox someday (I use Firefox on my PC)

I have ad blockers on my PC, but haven’t gotten around to putting any on my phone. It’s rarely a problem as I don’t visit many sites on my phone. But I should probably add one. I was just pointing out an experience I had. I think you were a bit rude with your comment. Please try to be more kind in the future; that’s what helps communities like Lemmy thrive

The ads on this site are horreeeeeeeendous
- Comment on What would life be like if we had 2 moons? With 2 different lunar cycles, how would we tell which time of the year it is without months? 7 months ago:
Many indigenous peoples tell the time of year by the stars rather than the moon. A certain constellation just became visible? Must be X time of year!
- Comment on 'The Finals' Is Using AI Voicework And It Is Bad 8 months ago:
I opened the article planning to dislike it, and I do dislike the man’s voice (the woman’s voice sounds quite good though), but then I thought about it. Sports announcers actually seem like a decent use for AI. I would imagine that it would be incredibly difficult to build decent announcers from pre-recorded voice lines… It’s heavily context-dependent, and this way it can even read out the team names, which I imagine are chosen by the teams. I think this could possibly work well. I don’t see how to create a system like this without AI

Surely it can’t be worse than Truth Social or Rumble… I’m assuming they main mainstream platforms
- Comment on Question for software developers: how do you organize your To Do list at work? 10 months ago:
I’ve found Notion to be quite good. I just started with a blank page, then added the date as a heading, a smaller heading for each project, then todo boxes for each task. I tick them off as I go. Then, the next day, I copy yesterday’s todos and paste it above, change the date, then delete the crossed off items. This gives me a history log off what I did on previous days, so if I forget what I did yesterday I can just look back at what I ticked off that day.
I used to use a paper notebook but found it annoying because I couldn’t add a task in between other tasks. That’s the benefit of a computer; I can move things around

Thank you so much for sharing the link for Watchy! Didn’t know about them and it’s quite likely I’ll buy one in the future
- Comment on [HN] Low-cost Smartwatch powered by ESP32 module 10 months ago:
I’ve been looking for simpler (and cheaper) smart watches than the mainline ones. Something like the original Pebble watch. I don’t need my watch to be a computer or a phone, I just need it to pause music and see notifications.
I might look into a watch like this

- Comment on AITA for removing my nephew from the "Accessible" playground swing? 10 months ago:
I would say NTA. Totally okay to use the accessible swing if there’s no one else around but if there’s a literal disabled person there and they can’t use the other swings then they should definitely get dibs on the accessible swing
