This is not the place for commas. This calls for a slash.

Alan Wake / Control developer agrees

Seems like it to me

Well, it also doesn’t help how much they are “accidentally” insulting multiple racial groups trying to make an Assassins’ Creed game.

I have a question: Is a FAQ case law?

Piracy is a service problem.

These are Jem’Hadar, not Tamarians. The Jem’Hadar are dependent on a drug called ketracel-white, only given to them by their Vorta overseers.

So, it makes sense they would be depicted in an ADHD meme.

With infinite budget sure, worth a shot, but it would cost a lot more than the price of the phone to track it down.

Infinite budget? Bro, I know the exact location. Just go over there and knock on his door. Arrest the man and put him in jail for possession. One less thief out there taking advantage of the fact that the police doesn’t enforce the fucking laws.

The criminals could and probably do have ‘faraday bags’ to block signals from phones as they move them, only ever taken out to sell them along.

They could, but they don’t.

In a world of home surveillance, doorbell cameras, and phones with constant GPS that can tell you the exact location of where it’s at, the police are more useless than ever.

The demo was neat, but it was hilariously overhyped, even in the abstract paper. It was pretty damn obvious that the researchers were just trying to continue funding their research with a PR push.

The more interesting aspect was the potential for better AI video processing, not creating a game engine. You can’t create a game engine without a series of defined rules, and you can’t define those rules without documenting it in programming language.

That kind of ownership clause is pretty standard for mods, especially when the game officially supports mods. Game studios don’t want to run into legal issues if they release some DLC or patch that happens to implement features that another mod included.

They’re all on F95.

Gee, I wonder why that so popular…

Why EU leaders People should get off Musk’s X

FTFY.

The company added that it does not “listen to any conversations or have access to anything beyond a third-party aggregated, anonymized and fully encrypted data set that can be used for ad placement” and “regret[s] any confusion.”

That doesn’t sound like kooky bullshit to me. That sounds exactly like what the OP’s title suggests.

(N.S.F.W.)

And paywalled.

we’ll burn out from endless selection of predictable movies and other entertainment

We aren’t already doing that? Even without AI, most of today’s writers suck ass, and corporate meddling has stomped out risk taking. Writers have no chance to build experience with good shows with longevity. With no risk, there is no creativity.

All of the good series were ones from cable TV. Breaking Bad, Sopranos, old Star Trek, Mr. Robot, Babylon 5, House, Rick and Morty, Game of Thrones (even if it ended badly), Better Call Saul, The Expanse (which died immediately after it switched to Amazon), Gravity Falls. About the only streaming series I really enjoyed was Loki, and that only lasted two seasons. Anything else might have a good first season, but they chop out any sense of character development by making these season 6-8 episodes long. No episodic content. No character development. Just go go go towards the seasonal end goal. And then get cancelled, because they didn’t get a chance to shake out the mediocre ideas and improve their direction. Can you imagine Star Trek:TNG being represented by only their first season, and then cancelled as a result of that?

All of the recent good movies were from directors that had a chance to take risks back in the 2000s, and are now given full creative control to do what they are good at. Dune was a great movie, but it simply adapted the source material, and was given enough budget and resources and creative control to Denis to produce what it needed to be. How many good directors will be left when the old guard retires?

All of the good games are from indie series now. Concord is being getting review-wrecked and shat on, while people focus more of their attention on an fucking asset-flip game about a squirrel with a gun. All of the good bigger studios are gone, fully absorbed into the Microsoft/ZeniMax/WB/EA empire. Only the first or second-time indie game developers are the ones producing good games.

Hell, at this point, maybe AI would do a better job than the shit that’s out there. I doubt it, though. It’s too half-baked right now.

From what I’ve read they tried to combine the console and PC version into a unified single version.

JFC. Starting off with something that is cross-compatible is one thing, but trying to merge the two codebases together… that’s a 2-3+ year effort, minimum.

The GPL is not a China-backed agreement. China can do whatever the fuck it wants, because that’s how dictatorships roll.

Was banned for saying that it’s not very difficult to self-med on !@[email protected] due to “bad advice”

Because you’re not a doctor, or any sort of medical professional, and even if you were, you couldn’t recommend medicine to other people for self-medication. Everybody’s different, and responds to medication differently.

Literally 1984.

Literally.

In general self-medicating safely is something us ADHDers should come together around and build a community to share advice on how to do it while minimizing harm.

How about coming together, gather around Congress, and get them to change the law? Or broadcast what this bullshit is to more people? Or vote for people who push this as an issue?

That seems a helluva lot more useful than a community of people pretending they know what they are talking about and literally dying because somebody recommended they go order black market tainted shit online.

Ditto.
