Being an asshole is a mental problem in the literal sense. If you mean the thing more commonly known as a "mental problem", then no, we can't because we don't have access to her diagnosis.

You know why "retard" is offensive nowadays, even though it literally means "slow" which is a pretty nice word to use? Because people overused it to mean whatever they wanted and, unsurprisingly, people stopped liking it. Don't do the same for "mental problems".

Exactly the same!

Hmm, let's ponder for a while what could I have meant. Soooo, do I put coins into my SNES or Genesis? Hmm, tough question, but if I had to give a definitive answer, it would be no. For multiple reasons, really. Like not having SNES or Genesis. And there being no slot for coins. Well, technically there's a slot that you can put coins into, but it's better to put the game cartridge there.

So, long story short, no I don't. But where else would people in the past put coins into to play games? Well, that, my dear reader, is left as an exercise to you.

All of the above managed through Obtainium, directly from the source.

  • Bitwarden (Google Play link)
  • Eternity for Lemmy (Google Play link)
  • HordeNG (taken down from Google play, but if was basically just a wrapper for a web app which you can install easily from the browser anyway - https://horde-ng.org)
  • Baby Journal (also a web app wrapper, available as a web app at https://baby-journal.app)
  • probably others from Google Play I don't use that often and don't remember whether they are open source or not

Three of those are made by me, but I also use them often (that's why I created them in the first place).

Nah, the consumers are just wrong. They don't want entertainment, they want gambling.

I'm still waiting for the game to come to GOG.

Having made my own pathing algorithm in Screeps... That thing's fucking hard to do right.

Nah, the Lion King was famously made so hard that it would force you to put more coins to try again.

Nothing has changed, we just had a brief intermezzo of games not being intentionally fucked to extract more money.

So glad it isn't us millennials ruining everything nowadays. Your turn, gen Z!

I remember not sleeping for 2 or 3 days after watching it when I was... 7? 8? Something like that.

You'd be surprised how small you can go. That's IMO pretty much the future of AI - a shit ton of small specialized models. While the heavyweights have their use, they're way too expensive and overkill for specialized tasks.

Some small models can comfortably run on the CPU as well, games can easily detect whether you have VRAM to spare and use GPU or CPU based on that.

It's not there, yet, but what some of the small models can do is impressive. And if you train them extensively on fantasy scripts, I can see them generating NPC lines on the fly.

Not how it works.

 

Only few more days to go!

 

Can be from any kind of media.

For me it's Margot from The Magicians (which is interesting because in the books she is anything but) and Jesse Faden from Control.

 

Quite a while.

Due to the introduction of the Gregorian calendar and to fix mistakes from the previous calendar system, October 5, 1582 did not exist. The calendar went from October 4 straight to October 15.

 

Edit: Problem has been fixed and we're slowly catching up, in a few hours everything should be as usual.

We are having some technical issues with content federation, meaning most of the content from lemmy.world is not displayed on our instance.

I'm working on solving the issue, though it appears to be a tough one. For the time being, the experience for users of lemmy.world will be degraded.

 

Shitendo strikes again

 

Recently I posted this image and many people were wondering what was wrong with the eyes, turned out I forgot to disable a face fixer model that tries to make faces more realistic. Well, now I generated the exact same image again, but without the face fixer model
