I’d imagine instead of loading the website chrome will give you an at your own risk malicious website warning.

external actor making your choices.

I don’t know if I have free will, or if my life is just like -an ugly- painting, but physics is the external actor if there is no free will.

It’s not X, it’s Y” is an AI mainstay.

You should have seen my h.school essays…

but an official method would possibly be better.

This may not be true at all. Like some of these old emulators are essentially perfect, have not tried the xbox360 one, but ps2 emulation is perfect, for many titles it’s better than playing on the console once you are past the setup.

Like imagine if the official emulator required you to attach a dvd-drive to your computer & even then how would the copy protection detection even work? Will they just give up on this now?

Ferrets & foxes.

I don’t don’t think this is useful at all, if it only results in a next button occasionally popping up.

What I find really mind blowing is that 2TB hdd prices basically have not changed in two decades.

Wait what, did someone forget to black out his name?

I doubt that, will China be a better Hegemon? They could collapse too though, who knows. I guess it’s not completely impossible.

The free version of Gemini is incomparably better then chatGpt in a great many tasks including coding. I expect it increasingly doesn’t matter what they do in the free tier.

It’s a logical conclusion of the present situation. No one will pay for grass or asphalt textures, when genai can produce more variety than any human asset artist ever could. In coding it’s a more complicated situation, but for certain tasks it’s almost dumb not to use ai. Even of you don’t use it to actually write code it’s still helpful to a varying degree.

My experience with cables is that they do matter, especially on the interconnect side, but price has very little to do with the perceived difference in fidelity or sound signature.

As for interference and shielding, yes this can indeed make a difference, but it’s rarely an issue unless we are trying to measure the noise floor, or using a really weirdly balanced levels. (like very quiet source attached to an amp that is cranked to max)

that will kill the project in the cradle

One Plus always has been an oppo sub brand and they have stopped being relevant a long time ago.

You all are correct that in the current climate automotive manufacturers would never allow something like this get on the market at large.

However 2-3 decades down the line, when car owners have gotten a reality check about the longevity of current & probably worse near future cars, the market demand could reach a point where people would give a simple repairable electric car a really good go and by simple I mean genuinely as simple as possible for an electric car.

Apple’s side loading is just EU as far as I know.

Apple’s sideloading is somewhere between a ridiculously off the mark compromise they’ve lobbied for and malicious noncompliance.

Doing so is against the Discord TOS, but it’s basically running a Tamper Monkey script. I did this twice to delete all the messages I’ve sent to my ex.

There is no certainty in these things, Nintendo could always do a big fuck you banwave many years later. Though you are probably fine.

Ai makes photoshopping trivially easy, so of course now this is bigger problem than before. This is not going to go away, so society will adapt. Humans can live perfectly fine in the jungle not covering up their unmentionables, so in a few decades this will be a non issue I would guess.

I’m pretty sure that you could make a realistic game where all plants & buildings etc use AI generated textures & no one would ever notice. Basic assets like these can be generated very well with great variety & this has never been art. Some people just grabbed a camera & took photos of bricks, houses & plants on the street & in the wild & then uploaded their work to an asset store.

Anyway compared to AI assisted game development there are so many worse things in the industry. Like gacha mobile games or denuvo. Also I think people are super naive to think that studios above a certain size (like 20 employees) would even be able to make games without using AI at all. There would be always at least 1 employee that would find ways to speed up their work in secret, typically way more than just one.
