Personally, I wasn’t particularly enthused with the character. I didn’t gravitate towards her at all. If they did something like that, I’d still check it out because SNW was so good, but I’d rather see something with Ortegas (not as captain, obviously).

I love Lemmy, but I block so many more users than I did on Reddit. Just a reminder for everyone that you can block people. 🙂

I’m not the commentator that said they’re shit. I’m the one that said I won’t call them all shit. I just don’t give a shit about them.

I like to put my money behind games that are doing something new and unique and/or have a great art style. I don’t always even get into them or play them, but I’m happy to support the devs for doing something new or beautiful.

I feel like it might be easier to list some AAA games that I do like than indie games many may not know. Borderlands 1 and 2, Doom 2016, Dying Light 1, Horizon Zero Dawn, Mass Effect trilogy, Outer Worlds 1 (jury is still out on 2), Uncharted series. Honorable mentions to AA games Atomfall, Clair Obscur Expedition 33, and Helldivers 2.

I couldn’t care less about Zelda, Red Dead, Elden Ring, or Dark Souls.

You’re right about Silksong. I’ve updated the comment.

I won’t say that every AAA game is shit. There are some ones I love and clearly the yearly FPS and sports games have their market that I’m just not in, but I’m very happy to see indie games become more mainstream outside of PC, and even more happy that I’m seeing physical releases for some of them.

You’re right. I’ve updated the comment.

And 268 million USD after conversion

Almost every single major AAA game. For example: GTA, CoD, Battlefield, The Witcher 3, Cyberpunk 2077, FIFA, Madden, Silksong, Ghost of Tsushima/Yotei, Mario and Zelda (any of them), etc. If it’s a AAA game, there’s a decent chance I have no interest in it.

Edit: Correction.

I don’t know a single one of the YouTubers being mentioned here.

Thanks for the reminder to cancel Hulu.

That’s intentional.

Smart glasses also raise many privacy concerns, as their cameras and microphones may be recording at any given time, which can be unnerving to people. When Google launched their Google Glass smart glasses, this led to the coining of the term ‘glasshole‘ for people who refuse to follow perceived proper smart glasses etiquette.

I think it pretty hard to believe when they were the one always fucking things up in NATO for Ukraine.

No shit

For anyone wondering what the fuck that title meant:

OpenAI research lead Lisa Fulford told Wired that she used Agent to order “a lot of cupcakes,” which took the tool about an hour, because she was very specific about the cupcakes.

“It was easier than me doing it myself,” Fulford said, “because I didn’t want to do it.”

Japanese people tend to make a big deal out of the “human touch,” especially when it comes to service

Aren’t they the ones that first came up with robot servers in restaurants? Or maybe that was South Korea?

I’m curious, what benefit do you feel that provides you? It’s not something I personally feel the need to know.

Bug report is still valid, but try toggling this off: Thunder Setting: Comments > Comments > Show User Instance

Works fine for me, same version. Is that a Google Gemini tab overlaying where the time would be? What does that do?

Edit: I see the stars on my own comments, but I still see the time too.

Edit 2: I see the stars on other recent comments too. Looks like maybe comments within the last 10 minutes? Not sure.

Highly recommend Technology Connections for anyone interested in easy to understand, relatable breakdown videos of technology.
