I was gona say that it sounds awfully familiar to vaccine denial

I started to think of something but…I don’t really need anything. It’s very nice of you to do this for others. Happy holidays

I recently saw this video that was an interesting slap back to reality. I hope this AI bubble pops quickly. Sooner the better

Yeah that didn’t pan out

We should have public run grocery chains. These companies are scum

I do wonder what comes next for average people. I used to think a UBI would solve the world’s problems, but now I believe it would be just used as a method of controlling the general population. We’re a ways off yet from everything being replaced by this garbage, but when the time comes, I’m nervous about what will happen.

Just finished Metroid Prime for the first time. It was really cool. Not sure how I feel about backtracking in metroidvanias, but I really enjoyed the world and the various bits and bobs of lore.

Pokemon typing and attack types are the most important thing. Water is good against fire etc etc. I think that’s the main thing at least! I wana go back and finish pokemon X one day. I tried grinding for a special evee and I burnt myself out before I finished the actual game lol

I tried this a few years back, and while I enjoyed the concept on paper, in actual practice, I found it frustrating.

The main issue is I have no idea if someone is cheating. As much as something like a kill cam would ruin the immersion, it also would give me reassurance to know that the game is still fair.

I want to give it another shot one day and just try to accept that I have no idea if people are playing fairly lol.

I wana see how this plays out. NYC is an experiment that I can’t wait to see pan out. I really hope things change for the better there. It might spur action elsewhere.

I’ve read this is what many companies are telling staff that have to travel as well.

It’ll certainly be my plan if I ever end up going back someday

This is what happened with Amazon and all those “AI grocery stores”. Easier for them to just use people to watch you from across the world. So dumb lol

I feel biased, but i agree with you. Definitely seems to feel that way

I’m surprised one of these companies hasn’t bid against the AI bubble yet. Like have they considered going against the grain when there’s obvious push back could actually increase profits?

Could you imagine a world where Microsoft went back to a windows 7 Era where shit just worked how it was supposed to and was super solid? I feel like people would appreciate and buy into a product that just works.

Maybe I’m completely off base here but in my mind having a product that… y’know…actually works and does what it says it does is valuable.

That is unless there’s just so much money being thrown at them to force AI into their products that they seemingly cannot refuse, which could very well be the case. But it just feels weird

I would wait for a sale and then put that money into indie titles you are interested in

Interesting! Thanks for the information.

Is there a reason these outages seem to have increased recently?

I wholeheartedly agree. It does sound dangerously similar. Ultimately, the main difference would be that I don’t want to hurt people(also to be frank it’s straight up impossible and imaginary to change people like this. lol). I just want them to be compassionate. I think ultimately, they need empathy. Maybe if i phrased it that way, it would sound less messed up. But yeah, they need to have empathy and a guilty conscience. If we could make everyone have that, it would be a much better place to live.

Governments don’t seem to want to do enough about them. They’re willing to let millions of people die because of billionaires. It just seems absurdly cruel and we just have to kind of sit and watch or get trampled on too.

They seem to not understand what made the good games good, and then when a game does do well, they try to milk it. The yearly releases are likely too much as well.

Black ops 3 was cool -> ruined with predatory micro transactions. anyone remember how they would pair you with people who had the items you were viewing in the loot box menu in an attempt to get you to purchase? And then the odds were stupidly low to actually get the items.

The modern warfare reboot was cool. But again they slowly ruined it entry after entry.

Black ops was kinda neat last year. Then they tried to milk it again.

Idk I’m kinda rambling here but if you’ve played most of the titles I think it makes sense as to why people aren’t always getting every one at this point
