Why is the cc-by-nc-sa license disappointing? Is your disappointment exclusive to version 4.0?
My only disappontment is with those humans (and humans who use ““humans””) who side with AI model using corporations that steal other people’s content to train said models for profit, over regular everyday people.
The great first video card, remember it well.
It came with a kick-ass poster for its time as well.
My Ryzen 3900X idles at around 50C, although that’s a few generations ago now
There seems to be a big difference between older CPUs and the newer ones, where the newer ones are running a lot hotter now under load.
I personally use a 5800X and it gets to 90c often.
CPUs these days run pretty cool.
Thought the AMD CPU ran around 90 celsius?
Did you really copyright your comment 😭
No, I licensed my content with a limited license that does not allow for commercial usage.
From the article …
Valve’s decision to slap the game with an Unsupported rating, then, is down to one game mode not working because it needs to access PlayStation network features, which right now is only possible on Windows devices.
It’ll be interesting to see how Sony and Valve resolve this issue.

I wonder if/how that will affect temps?
Can you at least make the text smaller? That way people aren’t as bothered by it, but you still have your licence?
I already did actually, a couple of weeks ago.
I’m using the Lemmy web editor. The web client doesn’t let you change font sizes, but it does let you mark font as subscript or superscript, which is a smaller font size, so I did that.
My understanding is some mobile clients have problem with the subscript/superscript formatting, and the cause of that is on their end, not supporting the format text yet.
If you don’t see my license declaration in a smaller font, direct the devs of your client to look at this page, which is the formatting instructions from Lemmy, and specifically the subscript and superscript formatting.
If your comments are going to gum up the thread with a segment that they don’t think will have any effect, what’s a few more to match?
Well their comments are their responsibility, not mine (you shouldn’t ‘blame the victim’), so I can’t talk towards their actions, except to say that each of us are supposed to behave civilly here on Lemmy, and not bully others to conform.
“Your license doesn’t do what you say it does.”
“Haha, joke’s on you, I don’t want it to do what I say it does.”
Glad we figured that one out.
Whatever lets you sleep at night.
Hahahahaha god damn what a load of bullshit. Did you also paste that image on Facebook?
Best not to derail this topic. It’s been discussed to death already.
You are writing “anti-commercial AI,” they are making their work explicitly available to republish non-commercially.
That’s just a description of what the license actually does, non-commercial usage of my content.
It’s actually not even my description, it’s one I got from someone else, who’s also licensing their content with the same license.
I have no problem with my content being used for non-commercial purposes.
You have completely different motivations.
No, I do not. My intent aligns with ProPublica.
I don’t think the license does anything at all
ProPublica would disagree with you.
you are not also including some unique phrase or UUID
The specific license number is explicitly stated.
How are you going to prove their models used specifically your copyrighted content in the event that courts rule it is not fair use to do so?
Already discussed in that other conversation post.
This comment is explaining it very well: https://lemmy.ml/comment/10762134
I’ve explained myself quite well in that conversation.
And again, no need to repeat, it’s all there already. Unless you guys just enjoy repeating yourself again and again with zero effect.
Remember I’m pullin’ for ya–we’re all in this together. ✊🏼
Thanks, and no disrespect meant, but I would believe that more if you did license your own comments as well.
In case you need the formatting for it, here it is…
[~Anti~ ~Commercial-AI~ ~license~ ~(CC~ ~BY-NC-SA~ ~4.0)~](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/legalcode.en)
Feel free to replace the link to point to whatever license you wish to use for your own content, if you do not want to use the same one that I am using.
My guess is that people disagree with propagating the delusion that pasting that link in every comment helps with stopping AI from feeding on your input.
ProPublica disagrees with you.
But best not to derail this topic. It’s been discussed to death already.
Well that link just leads to somebody mocking you then leads to another thread about how the license thing is totally bullshit lol
You’re being intellectually dishonest.
It points to a comment that has a link to a ProPublica article posted on Lemmy that also uses a Creative Commons license in the description for the post.
And if you instead go to the top comment of my linked comment (‘View all comments’ link), then you’ll see the whole long conversation that I refer to, where every point has already been discussed.
You do know your license is meaningless?
Best not to derail this topic. It’s been discussed to death already.
It must be the AI accounts that take offence with the licence.
That would be my guess.
There’s a lot of history in the last three-ish weeks in multiple of my posts with me using the license, including a standalone topic, where people/““people”” are ripping into me every way they can for using it, so I’m assuming it’s just more of that.
The same cycle tends to reoccur approximately every day to every other day. Usually someone asking an innocent question about it, and then somebody else replies to them, ripping into me, and then it explodes from there, derailing the OP.
I hate that the Lemmy admins are not taking care of the problem (if you admins are, and I’m just not just seeing it, then you have my apologies, and my thanks), but I’m also kind of numb to it at this point.
Getting to the topic of the OP…
Gamers Nexus is very consumer advocacy oriented, so I hate to think people are downvoting them for being them.
In fact, if you’re looking to build a PC, and want good advice on your rights when it comes with warranty repair for products you may have purchased, I would definitely suggest watching the video that’s linked In this topic (start @26:00 if you are in a hurry).
Good to see Gamers Nexus videos talked about here on Lemmy!
It was absolutely in there on purpose.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it was actually a stealthy industry norm.
it could say ‘anti AI thingy’. Small and descriptive.
Your description is missing one of the key points of it though.
But what does it do?
If you want the layman’s version, look at the ‘Canonical URL’ link at towards the top of the page, and that’ll get you to a laymans summary for the license.
Just curious, where does the Anti Commercial-AI bit come from? The page linked does not include that term in the title or summary,
It’s a description of the purpose of using the license.
and from what I understand of the legal situation it wouldn’t make a difference to explicitly mention AI.
Best not to hijack the OP’s post by discussing this here. There’s a different post that goes into depth on the subject and of the usage of the license.
The formatting is broken btw, at least looks that way on Thunder. Like there is an extra whitespace before the ] and hence, it looks like text and not a link.
There’s an issue with some Android / Apple clients that don’t render subscript and superscript fonts correctly. The web client doesn’t have this issue.
You’ll need to speak with the devs of your client to have that fixed.
You can refer them to this page, that has the formatting instructions: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/users/02-media.html
To be clear, I’m not objecting to applying a license to content.
I’m objecting to shoving a license in everyone’s face that’s bigger than the actual content.
Originally, I just had the Creative Commons license number, with no description, but then someone was complaining about not knowing what that was.
So then I changed it to just be a description of what it is, with no license number, but then someone was complaining about that.
So then I had both at a regular font size, but someone was complaining about that, so I shrunk the font, to be less conspicuous.
But then some Android/Apple clients don’t display the Lemmy subscript/superscript fonts formatting properly, and I get people telling me it looks ugly, so I have to tell them to get their UI clients devs to fix their client issues with fonts, or to use the web client UI.
And finally, now, I have both the description and the license number in there, in a smaller font, and educating some people about their mobile clients formatting smaller fonts bugs, aaannnnndd, somebody’s still complaining about that.
If it bothers you that much, Feel. Free. To. Block. Me.
Your comment signature is spam
One person’s spam is another person’s licensing of their content.
Feel free to block me, if you don’t want to see it.
and you should feel bad.
This is the Internet. We’re all supposed to feel bad/angry all the time about everything, apparently.
I can hear mod coders clenching their cheeks in preparation.
If they are fullscreen ads that disrupt, then yeah pushback is expected. But they wont do this, they will slip them in slowly and people wont generally care.
Pushback from gamers only usually happens when its something like losing the ability to play the game - see recent helldivers controversy.
There should have been a pushback on microtransactions from the start, but people just said “well you dont have to buy them” and here we are.
That’s not true though. They’ve tried adding ads in games for decades now, and they’ve always been pushed back successfully.
Just, hold. Stay the course. This new generation can do the same thing that previous gens have already proven can be done.
Fellow gamers, now is the time to push back on this crap. If you don’t do it now, you’ll live with this forever. They tried doing this in past generations as well, and failed.
Spread the word, tell others. Be vocal! Advocate for this not happening.
And if someone tells you that this isn’t preventable, tell them not to be cynical. Remind them of the other positive changes we were able to have happen recently in gaming, and that in the past when they tried this, the pushback was successful in keeping the gaming companies from doing so.
And remember, some of those you would try to convince are probably astroturfers/bots.

The masses will buy any game thats marketed to them enough. It’s how we got into this mess in the first place.
Well that’s true to some extent, but there has been past attempts at this, and they have been pushed back successfully, even with those ‘masses’ being there in previous generations.
Also recent victories show that even in today’s environment, positive change can be effected.
Try not to be cynical. If we lose, we lose, but at least we can look at ourselves in the mirror the next day.
The review bombings have helped before. Probably everyone has an ea game in their library. Lets give it a go.
Or just vote with your wallet.
Or both.

Sure, but then that would be an issue for CDPR to fix, rather than Proton
Yep, unless it has something to do with how Proton does its emulation/layer work, vis-a-vis quantity of cores, etc.
I personally don’t know enough about it to say, either way.
Doesn’t The Witcher 2 support Linux natively anyway?
You’re assuming the Linux code base for that game doesn’t potentially have the same issue. How much of the two code bases share common code, etc.
Thank you for that reply/write up!
I am not aware of any games having a problem with too many cores*
I’m making that assumption, correctly or incorrectly, based on this portion of the article…
addresses the issue of playing these games on high-core count CPUs. Proton reduces the number of CPU cores observed by games
It seems to me, based on that description, that there’s some kind of quantity issue going on, with games, that made Proton fixing it needed.
Basically, a balancing act problem, that’s fixed by just limiting how much balancing you need to do. Using your analogy, making sure there’s only X wrenches available to assemble that Ikea furniture.
But thats just a guess on my part.
From the article …
Older PC games have also received some love, as the new version addresses the issue of playing these games on high-core count CPUs. Proton reduces the number of CPU cores observed by games such as Far Cry 2 and 4, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition, Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine, Dawn of War II, Dawn of War II—Chaos Rising, Dawn of War II—Retribution, Outcast—Second Contact, and Prototype, allowing them to run more smoothly.
Anyone know of any details as to why this becomes an issue, why many cores causes older games to not work properly, requiring proton to hide extra cores from them?
They’ll keep the talent they want, and fire everyone else. “Talent Acquisition”.
Would have been cheaper for them to just poach the few talented people, under your scenario.
(And yeah, but, they’d be able to work around the poaching contracting/legal issues. They always do.)
Nice seeing a game not needing a third-party launcher, but instead just works with the Steam launcher.
