agreed, unless the expense gets into the realm of ridiculous like competitive swimsuits did for a time. then either only the wealthy clubs/athletes have access to the equipment, or everyone does and it’s just an unnecessary expense on the sport. there would have to be health and safety benefits to justify it.
confrontation by what mechanism though? aaa devs can’t be threatened in the same way with payment processors. they try review bombing and that doesn’t do anything. if these people had a similarly effective way to financially threaten AAA devs they would already be using it.
“We crafted this season that wraps our storylines and gives the audience a very satisfying conclusion to the four seasons they’ve been watching,” Sheridan said. “I couldn’t be more proud of what we’ve done in this season. I can’t wait for you to see it.”
He added that he had a feeling that Season 4 would be the last for “Resident Alien” when they started writing and shooting the current season last year.
yep, you could tell in the last few episodes they were really trying to start tying up all the loose ends.
people don’t watch good shows. they watch great (expensive) shows, or fucking awful cheap reality bullshit. the stuff in the middle gets lost.
they don’t just whimsically decide on a daily basis whether or not to comply with court orders. something changed legally that caused them to take action.
steam and itch capitulated here because indy games are small potatoes. the calculation changes if they start going after $70 AAA titles selling millions of copies.
i have no idea wtf that was but i’m in.
aspartame consumed within recommended levels does not cause cancer. the recommended limit is 40mg per kg of body mass per day. For a very small 45kg human that comes out to 30 cans of coke zero per day.
so they want Artificial Artificial Intelligence.
I think a major criteria should be gamifying of content with likes, follows, etc. as the person above was getting at.
bummer, it is such a great vehicle for Alan Tudyk shenanigans. in the last few episodes it felt like the various storylines were nearing a conclusion anyway, i just hope it doesn’t end on a major cliffhanger.
call? what kind of dumb shit is that?
so just like pretty much anything you eat then.
Once this review is complete, we will introduce new compliance measures. For NSFW pages, this will include a new step where creators must confirm that their content is allowable under the policies of the respective payment processors linked to their account.
kind of a clever way to say “hey don’t give us grief, if you want to change this go complain to visa and mastercard.”
the payment processors didn’t randomly wake up this week and decide to ban NSFW video games on a power trip.
they are being financially pressured in some way to threaten game platforms that they’ll remove their services completely. the implication of that is they’re worried about losing even more money than they make from payments on game platforms.
from the payment processors perspective, they’re thinking, “okay this is not a hill we want to die on and it’s a small percentage of our business anyway.”
the problem is “he” isn’t the only one building AI. If it wasn’t openAI it would have been someone else. And soon almost anyone with small business level of resources will be able to have an AI platform at their disposal.
I’m not saying the guy is a paragon of virtue or anything, but a voice from within the industry should be valuable to get legislators on board to do something about it. Not that I have great faith in them either.
Inverse Ron Swanson. Inhabit corporations and make shit run as inefficiently as possible.
what ever happened with the sequel? i thought it was nearing completion years ago.
I dont agree with the argument that chat gpt should “push back”. They have an example in the article where the guy asked for tall bridges to jump from, and chat gpt listed them of course.
but that’s an inherently unhealthy relationship, especially for psychologically vulnerable people. if it doesn’t push back they’re not in a relationship, they’re getting themselves thrown back at them.
then it sounds like you don’t need to be subscribed to the science community where we talk about, you know, science.
