i think AI should accommodate people’s differences, including radical differences, rather than make everyone conform to a the g-rated corporate version of reality pushed on us by Disney. i think we’ve all been exposed, for far too long, to Disney’s anodyne capitalism. it’s literally nuked our brains and made us think…

yeah absolutely this. 

stop infantilizing asians

i dunno about this. there are still places in the world where men travel to neighboring villages to steal themselves some wives, and all that happens without the internet, and is objectively worse than anything related to porn.

i’d rather have voice assistants be adaptable to each person’s needs, and not some one-size fits all solution, devoid of personality.

on the other hand, if the goal is effective AI it should be flexible enough to communicate with whomever, based on their preferences, whether that’s a paperclip, dog, man or woman. 

i’m not sure mobile gaming is really the problem at this point—clearly the issue is the F2P, overly-monetized grind. Mobile wasn’t the first platform to feature free games loaded with microtransactions—that would be the PC with its army of F2P MMORPGs.

i’m never going to buy a PC that meets the standards of the current generation of consoles. that’s a couple grand i’m unwilling to part with just for the sake of losing an argument. so, i only speak from my own perspective: a playstation exclusive just means that I can play it on my playstation. i guess you could even …

i feel like the odd person out—i only play on playstation, as that’s all i can afford, but for that same reason i’ve always reconciled myself to the fact that there will be exclusives i simply can’t play. at the same time, i’m very happy that sony has as many top flight exclusives as they do. so i just get over it and…

the subheading of this article says “Xbox fans get it for free”, which is hilarious:

i don’t know if you heard, but kotaku’s editorial edict is to be mean and negative at every opportunity. 

gamepass ain’t free. 

this is possibly your greatest and most relatable opinion!

maybe just trust that the internal report had enough detail—which we’re not privy to—to be damning. all you’re doing is second guessing a description in a kotaku article. 

I mean no offense, but I have felt, for two decades now, so violently opposed to Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson’s chicanery with regards to the Dune series. Frank Herbert was a literature-grade writer and philosophical thinker who used the genre of science fiction to share his ideas with the world. Kevin J.…

don’t feel the troll

at least capcom has a storied history of third person action adventure games to draw upon while developing street fighter 6. the mortal kumquat folks were clearly out of their element for the “single player adventure” by comparison.

this site is so negative now. even the compliments are backhanded. 

laws are just codified morality—or at least a moral that enough people agreed with at the time. i’m not defending it. just correcting your assertion that EULAs are new and untested. whether or not they are truly a social harm, or out of step with contemporary morality, has yet to be fully tested. personally i hope…

IBM introduced the first EULAs in the early 1980's. They’re not “new”. And while there are grounds to contest them, they are no different than any other commercial license—License being the operative word. You pay for something, and in exchange you agree to the terms of the sale. Your purchase locks you into the…
