I’m a bit surprised nobody mentioned the kernel-level anti-cheat, especially with Lemmy being a very security/privacy-centric place. That was implemented years after people spent money on the game and then basically stole the game/content unless you agreed to a huge change to the policy.

I stopped playing because they implemented that. There’s zero reason for that to ever be a thing in order to just play a game. Especially with the amount of machine-learning we have on what is and isn’t possible for humans to do, detection is completely possible server-side.

Half a million… Yeah, it’s California, but that’s still crazy.

I did get a chuckle out of “Has view: Yes” 🤣

My wife and I saw this ad in the theatres before the movie and just looked at each other like, “what the fuck?”.

Even making it from the daughter’s perspective would have made it so much better. AI is helpful for writing to get some ideas, but why is it so hard for companies to understand people want human interaction in their projects… Who was that ad even for?

As a final note, the “just like you” felt so weird and made me uncomfortable; it took the daughter’s voice away basically.

I would love Andy Beshear to be the VP. He handled the Covid pandemic awesomely in KY and has been doing a lot of things for greener energy / extreme weather responses. Also, he values education and universal preschool. The only thing I fear is that if he does become VP, KY is going to choose a conservative governor that undoes all he has done.

I feel like the lack of karma system will 100% help in this aspect. No reason to comment/post dumb things since you don’t really get anything with your post/comment is at the top.
