This article was so well-written that I was briefly surprised to encounter the term “nerfed” in the middle. I guess it’s common parlance in tech circles at this point.

My wife and I both have our ownn logins on both computers, even though we tend to only use our own.

I thought it already did, and that’s why it was dangerous.

Darn, I just bought it on Steam. Well I can probably de-Steam it.

Wow that adder was honestly impressive. Great article overall.

On paper, I like this solution better than every app/site developer having to hack together (or outsource) their own age verification system. But I’m sure it opens up a ton of potential problems. And if it’s open source, someone could just fork it and make a version that always says “yes” so unfortunately it’ll never be FOSS.

It’s very interesting the concept they’ve been able to turn into rogue-like form. I played a calculator rogue-like where you purchased additional buttons to make equations.

I still have my PSP 1000. I bought it from a pawn shop with my very first pay cheque. Bricked it with an official update. Maybe salvageable, I’m a lot better at tinkering than I was back then, but my wife’s 2000 is modded and probably still working fine.

Are they coming to harvest the RAM from my computer?

Coming soon: “Rogue-like Game Tycoon: the Rogue-Like.”

I’ve got one in my wallet right now.

A major advantage of analogue. Compatibility!

I put about 200 hours into an RPG when my son was born. This is because he would only sleep on top of someone, and I was too nervous to sleep with him there.

Humans are historically pretty good at offloading mental capacity to some sort of tool in order to tackle larger and more complex problems. Consider solving a math problem mentally. Compare that to the kind of problem you would be able to some with a pen and paper. Then consider what you could do with a pen and paper and a calculator. An LLM purports to be all of that, and more, for any subject. It doesn’t matter that the results are often horrifically wrong, once they’ve offloaded the entirety of their mental capacity to the magic box and refocused their attention somewhere else.

Now I’m thinking about the cancelled MGS fan movie and I’m sad.

Fancy 16-ply toilet paper. That’s why they’re so worried about the rate, it costs $20 a roll.

Oh it’s a phone. I thought it was celery.

Greg is a terrible name for a car. At least call it Gregory.

Similarly they ported Rockbox to the RG Nano and even sort of to the Nintendo 3DS.

I love that one false dichotomy argument the one poster presents, where being anti-AI is anti-progress in all its forms, and being PRO-AI is the only way to a post-scarcity society. That’s definitely the only two possibilities, for sure.
