I'm sure there is absolutely no way this could possibly go wrong!

OH NO IT ALL WENT WRONG!!!
TurboTax is about to be integrated into ChatGPT, where customers will be guided through tasks tied to their tax filings or financial profile by the AI chatbot.

TurboTax owner Intuit is also paying OpenAI more than $100 million a year to power AI agents.

this sounds like a great idea. luckily there are no extremely serious consequences to providing false information to the Internal Revenue Service

But if you love yourself, you can love both yourself and the person you love. Your love becomes twofold.
So take care of yourself.

"If you hate GenAI you're going to have to stop playing new games when they all start using it"

My brother in Christ, my backlog is literally thousands of games long. I have lifetimes worth of earlier titles to play, & I will gladly do that instead of boiling the oceans for a new CoD or whatever

I had one of my virtual debit cards leak and had a random attenpted medical charge (it failed because the card was limited to only have $15 on it)

Thank god for Privacy.com letting me make add these virtual cards for evrything online, otherwise I'd have to get new debit cards all the time

Question for any blind desktop Linux users, particularly GNOME users, out there: What are the remaining practical issues with running Orca in a Wayland-based GNOME session? I'm guessing inability to synthesize mouse clicks is the main one.

I'm thinking of trying out #Reynatis on stream since it has some #TWEWY content 👀

STREAMS ARE BACK NEXT WEEK!!!

My new job has finally settled and I can have dedicated stream days again! The new schedule will be Wednesday & Thursday @ 11:30 AM CST

We're gonna be doing #TalesOfXilliaRemastered on Wednesday, and I'm still not sure what to do on Thursday yet.

Literally had to recover and wait a bit more to talk about it, because this sucks so much and I'm really gutted :/

I had to see a bit more about it and it is genAI use and they're looking for genAI people instead of artists to use prompts and such for their games.
Anyway here's Mihoyo promoting AI assisted game production including:

"Efficiency in Image and Material Generation
With very few materials, they can generate character model sheets + 3D models, allowing for the testing of multiple designs and their artistic outcomes."

Something to keep an eye on.

...I can't get my PS5 fixed today because its Sunday 🤦

So after having it for about 5-6 months I am FINALLY getting the broken #PS5 I was given fixed (it has a dead motherboard).

The repair from #Sony is still like $250 but that's cheaper than $700! Now I can buy games that had #Denuvo DRM on #Playstation instead!

Well I was gonna buy a box until I learned this...

NOW I'M GONNA BUY 3 BOXES!!!
Before you buy Girl Scout cookies you should know they support transgender girls and reject donations from anti-transgender organizations. Then buy a couple more boxes

Sooo turns out some of the optional doors in Sky the 3rd are plot relevent for the transition between Sky and Zero! So now I'm releading a save with a guide to go through all the important doors I missed before I keep playing Zero
