Looks like an interesting game. Definitely added it to my Wishlist so I don’t forget that title!

Honestly, Grim Kleapers ads are almost a highlight to me. Such a memelord, wacky and entertaining.

I once worked with a guy called Nobby. One day I asked him: “why do people call you Nobby?” His last name is Cockshell. Cockshell > cock > nob > Nobby. Checks out.

Thanks, TIL! (Also, while you explained it well I still took so long to understand. Guess I’m having a slow day 😅)

…placing at least seven AirTags on his ex-wife’s car to surveil her.

Assuming the tags weren’t checking in with an owning device (iPhone) that car would’ve been beeping up a storm.

I recently lent a set of work keys to a colleague that I forgot had an AirTag on them, in their words: “fucking things beeped all weekend and my phone kept telling me I’m being followed!”

Unfortunately, yes. iPhones will check passively and Android phones can get an app but you have to check actively. Hopefully Apple and Google work on a solution for active detection on Android devices.

How did he calculate the 70% chance?

Maybe they asked ChatGPT?

I’d be keen to post there. I recall seeing a federation whitelist mentioned on a thread ages ago to safeguard against hate videos and the likes. Might be worth looking into.

Funny enough some of the most recent reviews have been somewhat positive because of the amount of progress that they have made on the development of the game. If the game were allowed to be developed to full completion, it might be a well received game (Despite the price). Instead they’ve canned it, which is just a disgusting show of business over customers as well as being disappointing for a KSP fan.

…elongating the toe of normal boots by as much as 5 feet (1.5 m)

That’s excessive.

Signed! We need reform on how aging games are handled to protect ownership of paid products and the only way publishers will do that is if they’re forced to.

Everyone’s talking blocked sinuses but I took your comment to mean asthma.

While every other cave person is running down a mammoth my asthmatic ass would be dying because of pollen or dust.

As a CPAP user; when I don’t use it I relate to ‘dying in my sleep’ way too much.

That’s what I hate about this particular point in time. There’s always been image manipulation but never so accessibly high quality. The amount of “cool photos” I’ve seen where the first comment points out a glaringly obvious (once spotted) AI mistake makes me start questioning any cool photos I come across. It sucks because there’s definitely amazing people out there making amazing stuff and my first thought now is “is this generated by an algorithm?”

I’m a big dumb. I’ve been using the Voyager app for a while and knew about the web app but never clicked I could use that on desktop.

Correct. This looks like it’s taken from the game info page in the users library, if it were taken from their friend list it would have context for which game it is.

That was a wild movie. Didn’t know what I was getting into when I put Pom Poko on.

I’ve seen so many products advertised by how many “songs” or “movies” it can hold. Never mind you can encode the same movie to be massive or small. So I think we’ve found the right answer!

Factorio. I love the gameplay but none of my friends play it so I normally play other games with them and come back to Factorio every now and then.

There are also wetting agents to make water wetter. I don’t recommend drinking them though.

I’ve always put it down to selection bias. Listening to a 60’s/70’s/80’s auto generated playlist on YouTube Music will eventually run out of the hits of the era and get into the weeds. The terrible, terrible weeds.

But according to my parents that was the hay day of music. It goes to show if you only listen to the good stuff then you’ll fool yourself into thinking that it was all good.

Don’t forget Steam Link! It’s one of my favourite features. You’re not even really tethered to any particular device to play your games since so many devices support the app. I play games that are single-player “console” style games in my lounge room for comfort and Steam Link means I can use my very good PC instead of buying into yet another console generation.

Howls Moving Castle for whimsy, Princess Mononoke for nightmares.

I say this as a massive fan who grew up watching a couple of cool anime films that I later learned were Ghibli. I watched Princess Mononoke at like 25years old and there were a few “holy shit” moments.

Took a little bit of searching before I discovered Japanese Breakfast is a band and “breakfast concert”’s aren’t some sort of niche 7:00am booking.

Honestly, I was thinking the same! Wake up, rock out and then some brunch.

Emotion-tracking AI on the job: Workers fear being watched – and misunderstood (theconversation.com)

Emotion artificial intelligence uses biological signals such as vocal tone, facial expressions and data from wearable devices as well as text and how people use their computers, to detect and predict how someone is feeling. It can be used in the workplace, for hiring, etc. Loss of privacy is just the beginning. Workers are...

Bring in Universal Basic Income. Introduce emotion tracking as job KPI. Fire me because I don’t emote per LLM datasets. Live comfortably unemployed.

Best dystopian outcome. A guy can dream, right?

If the Switch 2: Electric Boogaloo detects an emulator running on any device on the same network the Nintendo Security Devision will dispatch a crack team of lawyers to dispense justice immediately. This team is called … the N-Team!!
