You got me briefly wondering what Three-Body Problem’s search function meant.

Those cars cause a lot of shit apparently. Worst of all they are a liability around emergency vehicles. If this is a way of protesting that, I get it.

It’d look better. Even with the struts out.

10 micron tolerance is rather impressive for a mashed potato sculpture.

I’m sure he did pretend it was, though.

Probably any less flattering pic of him (so all of them).

I don’t think anybody seriously used twitter as storage.

Rather the point is that, similarly to every time a blogging platform or another online service with user content shuts down, a bit of internet history disappears with it. Links are broken, traces of opinions or bits of knowledge from another time are not available anymore…

It’s not the end of the world, and at that point I wouldn’t really care if twitter disappeared completely overnight, but still, some stuff will be lost.

If you start eating packaging like stickers glued to the rind of cheese, I think you can legally be considered a kind of human-goat hybrid.

It is just glued on it. It’s just on the label, not implanted inside the cheese wheel. The “you could be eating microchips!!!” part of the article is pure clickbait.

All they say is they’d be safe to eat if for some reason it ended up in the cheese. Like the rest of the label I guess.

Somehow Windows has always been and is still crap at managing archives. Ultra-slow, has trouble opening or extracting individual files inside the archive, etc.

However, 7-zip has been doing all that perfectly forever now. Not sure why anyone would use WinRAR, paid for or not.

Heh, good point.

I suspect the guys blocking the road could have prevented it by staying there, but assumed it wasn’t really their problem after all and kinda wanted to see this shit happen.

And I wouldn’t blame them.

…mullets? Do they fear cultural imperialism by time travellers from the 80s?

Consoles have had AMD chipsets for decades, and still do. Well, except the Switch.

It’s worse than tide pods somehow.

Tide pods was a challenge, a incredibly stupid and lethal one but one that was not presented as anything else than the stupidest dare ever.

This is apparently presented as a health tip (complete with the usual “detox” pseudoscience bullshit). Fuck these assholes.

I think you’re underestimating how huge a dataset has to be to get a somehow decent AI output.

The effort to create those custom in-house datasets would never be worth the prospect of not needing artists anymore. There is a reason current AI is mostly trained with sources of dubious legitimity. They just need as much data as they can gather.

AI generation is only profitable if you conveniently ignore where your source material comes from.

I started to use the Japanese term “search action” rather than Metroidvania unironically, sue me.

Yeah, it sounds silly, but it’s descriptive and feels less limiting to me than “a game that looks like Super Metroid and Symphony of the Night”. I love those two, but lots of games do the big interconnected map with ability gates, and they’re not that close to them.

Some of those even don’t have a map made of blue rectangles! Only like 90% of them.

Really, if we can do with genre names that are not built like that in general, all the better. I’m not going to the library to read a FrankenDracula or a DuneFoundation or whatever.
