this is a good reminder of how things that are shitty but have been accepted as normal and inevitable can actually turn out to be abnormal and evitable with some science, time, education and political will

There’s actually so many scary and horrible things made possible with genAI that unfortunately are glossed over in the (justified) critique of the slop made on stolen data/creative works.

Fortnite should have been dropped so long ago actually. If not before them using AI to necromancy James Earl Jones voice then after and if not after that then definitely now.
Drop Fortnite

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

So look man if we're just gonna be online here watching all these big studios come out and lay down on the tracks about Gen AI going "I have to do this for some reason." then I think it's more important than ever to celebrate games from based devs who are out here openly posting "Nuh uh, fuck that."

This game's really good. Like Void Stranger, it's a game that I grabbed for the gameplay and came away from it being surprised at how much I grew to enjoy and care about the story and world. Highly recommend this one.

If you strip this away you’ve mistaken intelligence for pattern recognition, and data.

Human history starts with the first mended bone. The moment we take care of someone who can’t fend for themselves and nurse them back to health. We develop language because we’re pack animals that need to be able to to communicate. In order to not be outcast we need to care and learn how others feel

I think the funniest thing to me is that the people who are working to create an Artificial General Intelligence is that it’s a bunch of libertarians who have never realised that what makes us smart as humans is community, society, empathy. The things they find an anathema.

My basic attack would probably do 1d4, while I have a 1d6 psychic damage attack and a 1d12 emotional one.
How much HP does your basic attack do?

I think mine would do like 4

I'm not strong but I do magic real good

Everybody's tossing out their Ko-Fi's, and I'm fighting the guilt to add mine to the timeline.

We've had two back-to-back appliance failures today, and I don't know how much replacements or repairs will cost.

Anything helps. #MutualAid

to be fair, I was a centre-left, liberal-ish piece of shit in high school but I grew by actually living and having international friends. the older I get the more left and radical I become.

In 1988 Umberto Eco wrote Foucault's Pendulum.

The plot is: a bunch of guys working at a self-publisher house, for fun, take their huge crackpot and crank slush pile and jam it all together using a simple markov chain program written in BASIC.

They create a Grand Unified Conspiracy Theory.
