Tried the prompt in SDXL Beta and holy crap, this went off the rails.

This reminds me of that one time Dunkey beat Sky in Smash.

Talks about billions of variations, only shows one LOL

Peepee poopoo

throw yours into the trash, then ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯

Holy shit, I can’t believe I’m seeing the Rule Against Perpetuities used in real life, and reported on in a Kotaku article no less! It was the bane of many a first-year property law student and has been abolished or replaced with something slightly less nonsensical in many jurisdictions. Nice to see it’s alive and…

I love it. These right wing chuds have been doing the same things for decades and are now clutching their pearls on their fainting couches because someone did it against them. 

League of legends made me a believer in free to play, and since then the only other game I’ve seen attempt actually free to play was Rocket League

I’m not a big fan of mobile games or free-to-play because I know they will have to make their money somewhere. You can’t expect a game to be free and have no mechanics to ask for money.

People just are not willing to pay even a couple bucks for mobile games. Many companies tried this over the years and it usually fails…

Wow, thanks! I didn’t know that either, and I do care about the state of my bananas, I like mine to still have a little green on it.

Why do they think that’s a good idea?!

You don’t get to do this on your first sequel, the second game has to be either numbered or have a subtitle. You only get to do the same name twice after multiple sequels and at least a decade have passed.

I’ve checked the law and found that this is true, what they are doing is illegal, don’t look it up.

Made worse by how abused the “beta”/”Early access” tags are these days. With games going years in “beta” even though everyone knows that it is functionally released. No one expect a MONTHS long open beta with MTX to “unrelease” these days.

The July launch you referenced was the actual beta period. I participated in the closed alpha, which was last May, and then the game came back in July for an open beta before launching with season one in August. They have just now decided that the game was in beta the whole time because they fucked up so bad. You…

Surprised it’s coming back. But then again I thought the game wasn’t very fun so I haven’t been surprised by the decline in players. The game just felt so soulless and mechanical to me. 

Agreed. I love Sanderson’s worlds but they are not high level writing. What attracts me to Sanderson’s books is the world building and creative/unique magic systems that are all connected. And the fun and escapism, and sometime hilarious characters. Arguably the same could be said of Wheel of Time and Song of Ice and…

This Wired article wasn’t criticism, it was a hit job. The dude basically hated Sanderson from the get go and in spite of all the evidence that he’s a nice guy decided “hey fuck this guy”

I’ve long felt the most notable thing about Sanderson is his fanbase’s rabidity.

Since it wasn’t anywhere to be found in the actual post:

you can’t take photos ANYWHERE inside the building.
