I have never not been able to pirate a book, if you’re interested. Book piracy is super super easy

I only support book piracy because most of that money goes to a publisher anyways, and Amazon gives credits because they take a huge cut anyways when people do pay out of pocket.

AdmiralShat ,

Was it an Amazon branded delivery truck? Sounds more like a shipping company fuck up if not

AdmiralShat ,

I mean, yeah, for some of us it’s apart of the experience to see a game change and grow over time and be apart of it. It’s nice when developers respond directly to you and even take your ideas into consideration. It’s nice being apart of a community, too

I get this if we’re talking AAA millions of dollars dumped into a game and it goes early access, but EA indie games have been a blast for me for years.

“Never told him” well now you just did, and his whole family and all his friends.

AdmiralShat ,

This article is pointless.

These chat bots are generative. Yes, they generate fake laws and fake cases and fake outcomes. That’s how they work. Expecting anything else out of something designed to create is pointless and a waste of time. They aren’t designed to not lie. That’s so well established at this point I think the people doing this research on fucking chatGPT for law questions are either mooching funding just to keep a job or are bored.

If they trained a LLM on nothing but a dictionary, law books, and fed it case outcomes, it would probably be a reasonable tool for law offices. Make sure it only outputs indexes to real cases and real laws, and make sure that law offices have to legally follow up on and verify these things but I see this as an actual use case for these types of bots.

There still is a lot of nuance involved, especially for a layman who wouldn’t even begin to understand the terminology required to start the search, so a human lawyer would/should still be involved, but these tools would absolutely help speed up the judicial system and probably lower costs.

Valve has followed through on this, too, they provide multiple services I find so convenient I’d rather buy games than pirate. Simple one click multiplayer without any port forwarding nonsense, the steam input API, the workshop (which, imo could be a better mod manager overall, but most games usually have mod managers in the workshop you can use)

And games go on sale so often it’s super easy to just buy it at 75% off anyways.

I don’t simp for billionaires normally, but Gaben isn’t full of shit at least.

The Omnomnomissiah?

Go fuck yourself

AdmiralShat ,

Unironically, yeah. Amphetamines were one of the first drugs they started piss testing for in organized sports

AdmiralShat ,

I think the main issue many people are taking is that these fakes have been around for a bit, but NOW there’s a call to legislation when it’s a billionaire that’s the victim.

Of course it’s a problem and I’ve said before that this needs to be discussed on a legislative level, but even I’m rolling my eyes that it took a literal billionaire being exposed to it to have any impact.

AdmiralShat ,

How do these eSIMs work from a user’s perspective? I’ve only ever had phones with physical sim slots

AdmiralShat ,

How frustrating

AdmiralShat ,

That’s my big concern as well.

AdmiralShat ,

Imagine that, a pastor actually thinking to himself “what would Jesus do?” and doing that, and being punished for it.

This is why I, regardless of political lean, think the real enemy is bureaucrats. Bureaucrats aren’t even really people. They’re the lizard people all the conspiracy theory/tin foil hat wearers screech about.

AdmiralShat ,

As someone well versed in inhaling Nitrous Oxide, why not not just use Nitrous Oxide? That’d be a quick way out, and it’s cheap, you can buy enough to kill a person on Amazon for like $30. Even if you fuck it up, they’re unconscious and feeling nothing.

AdmiralShat ,

Not even just a technical security standpoint, why would you put a live camera up when someone else legally owns the feed?

I’ve had discussions and people claim it’s no different because other systems can be hacked and you have a phone with a camera that can be remotely accessed, etc.

But those things are illegal, the people using Ring are knowingly putting up a camera where someone else owns the footage. They aren’t hacking, they aren’t stealing. In fact, they’re letting you borrow the footage anytime you check the camera yourself.

AdmiralShat ,

We really need like a consumers union type organization. I know it would require work, but I guarantee if millions of people got the “Hey just don’t have Netflix for a couple months and we’ll get what we want” memo, then millions of people would have stuck together

The harsh consequences of being in a police state

AdmiralShat ,

Holy shit dude it’s only been a few minutes calm the fuck down

AdmiralShat ,

I was gonna write out a response (which is why I was back here anyways) but your demeanor is just “I wanna be angry” and there really is no amount of logic you apply to people like you.

AdmiralShat ,

This comment said:

Is it a threat if it’s inside a private chat with friends?

For you to make a threat, you need to say it to the people you’re threatening. It’s not like he posted it publicly or dm’ed the airline and government.

But remember, Biden is “the most pro Union President in History”

This is what makes it so hard being a liberal. Democrats will say shit like this AFTER BLOCKING A STRIKE

AdmiralShat ,

You for some reason think I expect this? Damn dude thanks for putting words in my mouth, great example

AdmiralShat ,

The Last of Us 2 absolutely had a hate campaign long before it released, it was review bombed within minutes of release

This game had everything on its side. All the youtuber who covered it the months before release were like “it seems too good to be true, but if it’s true it’ll be great”. Everyone wanted it to be good, everyone wanted it to succeed

AdmiralShat ,

It wasn’t her it was Abby, because she was buff they claimed she was trans. Then there was a sex scene with Abby and man and they claimed is was an unskipable gay male sex scene (it was skipable, btw, and it was hetero sex, but she’s got biceps)

AdmiralShat ,

Do the people who go “you know that stuffs fake right?” actually think that there are people who think it’s real?

AdmiralShat ,

Have you tried building simple ones to solve game puzzles? It’s actually fun

Anyone who knows even the slightest bit about how computers work know this is a bad idea.

By the time I had found out Google+ was a social media and not like premium features for the Google suite of office clone software, it was already announced to be shutting down

They’re so defederated they needed to use another account on another instance to even ask this.

I don’t think this person was saying they think all manual apk installs are suspect, just that installing apks from an unreliable source. There are plenty of reliable sources to get apks

Syncthing is foss software I use for that, they don’t try in anyway to hinder you syncing using third party. Their paid option is just how they monetize

Imagine if most people had this shitty attitude. Nothing would ever change.

AdmiralShat ,

Still cringe, the point went so far over your head it’s almost funny if it wasn’t so cringe.

I like ACG because it never feels like he’s trying to sell me anything

ACG and SplatterCatGaming are my main sources for discovering new games.

Why isn't everyone talking about AI generated audiobooks?

I just listened to this AI generated audiobook and if it didn’t say it was AI, I’d have thought it was human-made. It has different voices, dramatization, sound effects… The last I’d heard about this tech was a post saying Stephen Fry’s voice was stolen and replicated by AI. But since then, nothing, even though it’s...

AdmiralShat ,

Imagine the day when people post videos of the president saying literally anything with pitch perfect audio voice synth

Imagine going to prison for a generated clip of you confessing to a crime.

AdmiralShat ,

It depends. It definitely is easy to get distracted and need to rewind but I found that happens much less often than with sitting down and reading in text form.

Its a solid solution and I recommend you give it a try.

AudiobookBay and youtube have tons of books

AdmiralShat ,

This is literally the only upside I see from this.

One of the Dune audio books started off as multiple voices and then part way through it was finished by just one guy. Really impressed with it at first, and then really kind of debuffed by it. I had already read the book years before so it wasn’t a big deal, but like wtf?

AdmiralShat ,

…but it is already that good? The fact that celebrities are having to come out and say it wasn’t them in an ad is proof enough that it can fool people

You only need to fool a jury

AdmiralShat ,

Yeah if any of that actually happened, but it didn’t.

“HE’S PULLING HIS COCK OUT!”

Even then, he got a good amount of his initial wealth by just investing in other people’s companies.

Hardly self made when worker exploitation was the norm at that time. He cane from a time when striking workers were literally bombed by the US military or just shot down in the street like disobedient dogs.

Not self made.
