Valves approach isn’t to bet on a particular instruction set. Instead they are focusing on emulation or translation layers. That way they don’t have to worry about what hardware you have or what OS you run, as long as you end up in steam.

Of course they are also print their own OS out there which has a few nice extras, but I don’t think they’ll ever make it a requirement.

Of course they wouldn’t mention it, to Microsoft they were just numbers on a spreadsheet, not people.

This is the kind of thing that AI hallucinations may actually be useful for? Have it make super weird shit from feedback loops.

There was a video of AI trying to hallucinate quake, you would turn around and like you were in a dream sequence the entire world changed, that would be trippy as hell, but at the same time could be created by real people.

Yes, but then ask you need to do it continue to wait for a sale or reduction in price. The patient gamer life has definitely grown on me, with a few exceptions like helldivers 2

Hand the AI Twilight books. It’ll either delete itself or make them better?

I hope this goes better than last time.

Well I mean, at least they are keeping an election promise?

Not that it’s a good promise to be keeping though

At least two.

Surprised they didn’t lean into it. “Just lost your job? More time to play games!”

It was one of the best value for money experiences I’ve ever had. Only beat out by The left 4 dead series based on hours played.

Wonder if it’s piloted using a steamdeck or controller?

Some issues are

1. As mentioned, they will not run on the actual hardware
2. Pressed CD’s normally last longer than a burned one.
3. It’s far too easy for the creator to simply create a few extra to make a little more $, where as creating pressed media take a bit more effort/money as you need to do it in bulk to be cheaper than just ordering blank CDs on Amazon.
4. It’s far less “premium”, which is normally what limited run items are for.

It’s a good game, and despite complaints people have had regarding balance issues, Arrowhead do seem to be doing things well (if slowly).

The only complaint I have after the recent balance changes is that the number of heavies seems at odds with the nerfs. Quasar was too strong, but the extra 5 seconds added to the cooldown means it has about 20-25 seconds between each shot. That’s near EAT calldown levels of slow

It was an ok game, if the sale* included the DLC that would have helped.

But the card modifiers just never fit to me.

I’ve only had the time to watch one episode so far. But it definitely felt like a good show adaptation. Episode one felt like a classic fallout opening.

With friends: Deep Rock Galactic. It’s just good fun, and how all the game systems come together means you can easily play it with friends for 1-2 hours a night without it going stale (at least in my opinion).

Solo: I just picked up Baldur’s Gate 3. Not even off the Nautiloid yet, and it’s not my normal style of game (normally more action focused), but it’s gotten good reviews not just for the game but the attitude the developer has taken, and that I want to support. I also want a change of pace to be honest.

Holy crap.

Never ending dualing banjos.

We need this to happen.

So, we want to avoid AI Kansas? Fair enough

While I don’t claim to understand how the AI function, this makes sense. Think along the lines of making a copy of a copy of a copy, etc, using a photocopier instead of copying a file. Because they are reinterpreting the works every time more and more errors accumulate in the results. This may be because there’s a difference between recognising and understanding.

I self host a Bitwarden instance.

They are a must in this day and age.

My first opinion on my not even 2 day old account would be no.

But I’d be OK with a MemeDay as well if the "no meme"s result isn’t over 50% in the poll. It can bring a nice bit of variety (even if that same content is available elsewhere).
