I'd feel bad for the seventeen folk who managed a platinum through a terrifying grind if that were erased 😅

Excellent write up, though one note - I believe both Judgement and Lost Judgement are available on Steam, at least.

I don't hate it as an answer except in this case where it can be read as "because I'm not like Walz" (who's teetotal, I think), and "we're not the other guy" is just so boring.

Or it might be genuinely down to his like of beer, in which case it's just a bit of a mediocre answer.

Yeah, I enjoyed the ability previously to have an opportunity to paint up a small squad of a random army I wouldn't collect otherwise.

This change not only removes that, but also kills my interest in killteam, to be honest. But I'm someone who liked the customisation from v1, so I'm clearly not the target 😅

I'll be honest, I'm very confused about what you mean when you say that Google Wallet isn't a thing. I pay with my Android phone everywhere, so ubiquitously that I've frequently left the house with just my phone and keys.

Do you mean America, where contactless payment is far less frequently accepted, or the concept of clicking on a "Pay with Google Wallet" style prompt on a website?

Fair enough.

Thank you for the response!

Just pointing out, once again, that games sold on the Epic store can be different prices to Steam. "Valve uses their market dominance to force the same price across marketplaces" is a nonsensical, incorrect statement.

That's because the versions sold on the company site are for ArenaNet keys, not Steam keys.

The rule is only for selling Steam keys.

As has been pointed out by many other people in this thread, this is untrue.

If you are providing a Steam key, it has to be the same price as Steam. Otherwise, you can set whatever price you want (e.g. if you were selling on both Steam and Epic - like Borderlands 3, which frequently had sales on Epic where the price dropped below the Steam price)

It's even fine to sell your Steam keys at a lower price in another place - as long as you're planning to have a similar sale on Steam at some similar time.

It's OK to run a discount for Steam Keys on different stores at different times as long as you plan to give a comparable offer to Steam customers within a reasonable amount of time.

TL;DR: Games sold on Epic could be any price they want. They're no different to Steam, in general, because that's what publishers choose.

I haven't played it in years, how is it doing now in 2024?

Did you consider contesting it, or contacting DE about it?

I enjoyed reading this, thank you.

How about two drinks, plus a free drink from the airline you're flying per half hour delayed? Seems more reasonable.

I don't understand how you could understand how LLMs work, and then write this.

Machines can learn that...

Ah, nevermind.

If you'll excuse me saying, I feel that you are the one who is looking at something and extrapolating.

I feel like you may be arguing with someone who is making an Always Sunny reference.

I'm not saying everything in the world has been done, but "what, like Tiny Tina's Wonderlands?"

Wow, I didn't realise that was still about! I'm tempted to go check it out again!

Ha, me'tal gymnastics.

Yeah, though a nice thing for those who need it my immediate worry was "well, this may mean companies lean further into tipping because yay tax free" rather than working towards just paying workers.

Humtum.

Yeah, what's the jokey parable thing?

A CTO is at lunch when a call comes in. There's been a huge outage, caused by a low level employee pressing the wrong button.
"Damn, you going to fire that guy?"
"Hell no, do you know how much I just spent on training him to never do that again?"

(</Blah>)

Just spotted you mention it on bsky! I've queued it up, and will be jumping on a train to London later so will have a moment hopefully!

Thank you for mentioning it here!

The only sad thing is that it seems like they're (still?) only talking about the other side's policy, rather than backing their own policy based on its strength.

Just "I'm not the other side" (but at least with policy rather than personality)

The Xreal Air~, or the just-being-released Xreal Air 2 Ultra, is potentially that.

Oled displays and cameras for tracking objects and hands.

Edit: also just saw this

1. I think you're on the wrong community for this question.

2. The thing regularly referred to as "AI" of late is more accurately referred to as generative AI, or large language models. There's no capacity for learning from humans, it's pattern matching based on large sets of data that are boiled down to a series of vectors to give a most-likely next word for a response to a prompt. You could argue that that's what people do, but that's a massive over simplification. You're right to say it does not have the ability to form thoughts and views. That said, like a broken clock, an LLM can put out words that match up with existing views pretty darn easily!

You may be talking about general AI, which is something we've not seen yet and have no timeframe for existing. That may be able to have beliefs... But again, there's not even a suggestion of that being close to happening. LLMs are (in my opinion) not even a good indicator or precursor to that coming soon.

TL;DR: An LLM (or generative AI) can't have or form beliefs.

I mean, happily, chatbots are not really capable of learning like that.

So she's got a while, there.

It's clearly down to the increase in visible moustache-twirling villains in the news, saying stuff like "and I would have gotten away with it if it weren't for those meddling kids."

Or something.

Personally, I'm also annoyed at the increased use of "needs done", which feels like it's missing half a sentence. But hey, languages are big - and can fit a lot of different usage.

Please, tell us more.

Out of interest, have you seen hbomberguy's recent video on plagiarism in YouTube and the section on AVGN?

Yes, and?

Trying to make money from games with long term support is a tricky thing that companies keep trying to do - it can lead to season passes, microtransactions, deluxe/supporter editions, buyable maps and expansions - or stuff like this.

Companies try to get money to support game, more news at eleven...

I got a first generation badgy, and it had an issue that prevented it working with the battery.

Sqfmi said they'd sent out a replacement part to fix it, but never got back to me.

I love the ideas they have, but I don't trust them.

I know the Corsair 800D used to have these. This looks different, but might be in the same line.

Sounds good to me!

I wish Samsung would do the same. They just pushed a "security update" that has also added "AI" to a half dozen baked in apps. It's not clear how to disable it (but now I'm home again, I guess I'll look into it).

Another vote for Binging with Babish - though my interest waned when he started going from "hey, I could try making that!" to episodes requiring ever more complex and expensive niche machines (e.g. dehydrators), I completely lost interest around the time he started doing the "going round buying folk things" series. Never really got back into it, unsubscribed after a while.

Bon Appetit was great, then everything happened, many folk changed (for good reason) and it just lost the appeal for me. I've watched some of the spun off channels, but some of the appeal for me was the interactions.

I used to religiously watch everything Shut Up and Sit Down put out, but found myself watching less and less over the last few years - turns out, they changed primary content creators and editor (if I understand correctly) around that time, and announced that they did so recently. Still watch occasionally, but it's a very subtly different style that hits less reliably for me. May also be related to me managing to play fewer boardgames, lately.

Really enjoyed the format, looking forward to the extension of this in the next video!

Really appreciated the deeper dive and calm narrative along with the evolving code and demonstration. I feel like so many videos go into what without touching enough on why, so that was really good.

That seems an awesome concept! I'll queue the video up!

Mild uh-oh from me, though I had a great time in Origins and everything has been less good since then...

I think that this is the logical place to put those opinions - it would make less sense unlinked to the post.

I dislike that it's been shotgunned at nearly every post I see, regardless of how relevant it might be, and I don't trust the output to represent the link.

Given there's no "bad bot" style feedback functionality (that I know of), what else is there to do than block it?

I dunno, it seems easy enough to say "we've got rid of cAIo Colin v1.0 for his clearly insane ideas last year, we're looking forward to bowing to the whims of Colin v1.3, who I hear has some excellent new data sets from last year!"

Or a different product, or whatever. Ew, in any case.

Is that shittywatercolour? Didn't realise he was still posting!
