Yep, as much as we see it as a niche thats because we view it from an adult perspective. Board games are childrens toys and they are in the same boat as a lot ofnkids toys where recycled materials have not been at the forefront because there is nonfinancial incentive for them to do so (If a kid wants a harry potter…

Im a big collector of board games (I have a wall in the den dedicated to them) and i appreciate when a game doesn’t waste space. A tight well designed package does wonders though there are some games where that isn’t possible currently (if the board had to be a certain shape that restricts the box as well.)

This is a very long post to just say NIMBY. We need to do better in all areas. Wooden or metal components, less packaging, less waste. It sucks.

I definitely love the callback to the Eastman & Laird art-styles, especially with the janky “sketched” architecture. This looks like it’s going to be a fun ride.

Wasn’t sure what to expect when I heard of the project but this looks amazing. Feels like the 2012 Nick 3D series mixed with the Spider-Verse stylings. Also kind of neat to see how each generation interprets being a teenager and this is probably the closest we’ve gotten to feeling like kids goofing around.

Well these people likely didn’t illegally scrape either.

You’re right, but that’s also sadly the crux of their problem: they want to prove the benefits of their tech by showing a style already recognized as distinct, but they have to do that because they aren’t artists who can create a distinct style themselves, and no sane, already recognized artist will risk letting an AI…

This. We (collectively) seem to have gone from bemoaning the heavy crunch in art and animation to clutching our pearls at the idea of it being less labour-intensive.

“I see potential for tools like these to let an animator let this process propagate their ink and color easily across [an] entire shot, for example. It’s potential like that that gets me excited about this tech, and why we do these experiments in the first place,”
This is the real take here. No one is going to replace…

Honestly the game has gay couple has a trans actor playing a trans character, is more racially diverse than og harry potter for cast, and main character is refered to as they them. You can be even trans. At this point I think Kotaku and the like are actually losing at this. Yes JK is a bitch but this game is the most…

Anything with a number 3 please!

Wait, I still remember how this works. Just a minute to reactivate the proper synapses. Ah yes...

Without more context in the statement it’s hard to tell if you are looping deep fake and other representations into the same bucket. For instance, lookalike parody porn (who’s nailing Palin), or drawings of Scar Jo.

If that’s what you mean then I agree. But the fact that you called it fake porn instead of deep fake porn means it could refer to realistic (but non real) porn, rather than porn of real people which are deepfakes.

AI is a brave new world. Full of dangers and amazing oportunities. I work IT in a field were safety regulations are tight and lead to heavy fines, and even heavier life loss (highways).

This last year, I’ve worked directly with 2 AI systems, and we have seen 4 others that helps us detect defects on highways, on…

I don’t really see why. I mean anime porn has been around a long time and even people in relationship seem to consume it, even together. The issue is not that’s is a “new weird kind of not real porn”, the issue is how it targets real people and has real consequences on their lives. And of course it can be used to…

They are famous because people enjoy watching them play video games. Not because they play video games.

Good. Because here is the thing: I would buy this Day 1 if they committed to supporting PC. I have a PS5, I like it, but I don’t foresee using the VR headset on that enough to justify the cost, but an foveated rendering, eye-tracking lightweight, high-res headset that I could also plug in for PCVR? Easy purchase at…

Meanwhile, here’s me struggling to dodge attacks from 1 trash mob and flick through my item hotbar to find the dang thing I need
