OpenAI says they aren't liable for the suicide of a user their chat bot urged to kill himself because suicide is a violation of the TOS

The Loss and Field of Kings (1997)

I beat King's Field III last night and was deeply unprepared for the narrator's voice performance in the final text crawl

Linux gaming is in a pretty good state, Bloodlines 2 ran out of the box on Linux steam with no issues

What are good solutions?

I'm curious, because I had been (probably mis)led to think that connecting LFS to an Artifactory instance, and having artists use a GUI to work with Artifactory without a repo, would let them do their thing while Git users could still have direct asset access. Could anything fix that split?

Happy birthday!

I'm watching an adult creator get systematically cut off from every income stream by payment processors and now debankment could be on the table. She makes legal content. They are trying to shut her up and hope that we'll shut up too.

We must get louder. Call Visa and MC. Tell them this will stop.

Can't wait for GTA6 to sweep the indie awards next year

I normally avoid caring much about awards, but the TGA nominations actually suck ass. Clair Obscur hogs up fully half of the best performance nominations, and for some reason is listed in both of the indie categories as well. That overrepresentation might be "justified" by hype, but excludes others.

In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.

KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond.

His reply was a doozy.

We don’t use generative AI at Strange Scaffold and I can confirm that a *lot* of other studios are not—whether indie or AAA.

Get outta here with this normalization bullshit.

Ooh, "sloppers" is much better than "clankers". Focuses on the actor (the user/peddler), and the undesirable action, rather than a vague class of tools.

Also seems to avoid the weird slur-esque vibes (as in Cylon/toaster) (and I'm guessing this is part of the motivation)

The words "FIX YOUR HEARTS OR DIE" placed over David Lynch's face (a still from TWIN PEAKS THE RETURN).

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

There's something to be said for doing it then Pesky showing up five minutes into the visit like "sorry I'm late"

Would you welcome a distraction from a world that is increasingly exhausting to perceive?

Then I've got good news for you:

Seuraavat eduskuntavaalit pyörivät amerikkalaisen Amazonin palvelimilla – äänet annetaan edelleen paperilla Ensimmäistä kertaa vaaleissa ehdokas- ja äänestäjätiedot sekä tuloslaskenta siirtyvät Suomen rajojen ulkopuolelle. Tutkija ei käyttäisi pilvipalvelua kansallisen turvallisuuden asioissa.

Ei mitä vittua teen aws:n kanssa joka päivä töitä ja tämä on silkkaa hulluutta.

Had to share this from twitter just because

I am hearing that on his deathbed Dick Cheney received the light of Islam and unhesitatingly recited the Shahada. Even now she looks down on the Ummah from the gardens of Jannah. Truly there is no god but Allah, and Mohammad is his prophet!

Very important factor to this

Muutkin työkalut - voi esimerkiksi kysyä haurastuuko lukusarjojen ymmärtäminen luottamalla graafiseen laskimeen, jotka olivat ysärillä vahvassa kasvussa.

- PISA-matematiikan lasku samasta ajasta lähtien. Aika nopeasti tulee mieleen että jos arviointi- ja laskutaidot ovat 2000-luvulla aikustuneilla laskussa, niin kääntäisin katseen ysärilaman aikaisiin koviin koulutusleikkauksiin ja yleisiin nuorten kasvuajan vaikeuksiin joita tuolloin oli.

IQ on sen verran hutera heuristiikka muutenkin. Puzzlet ovat opittu taito joten aloittaisin katsomalla työkalujen käytön lisäystä, kuten tietokoneiden ja älypuhelinten yleistymistä. Lisäksi huomioisin että jutun lähteinä ovat armeijan pällitestistatistiikat 2000-luvulta sekä -

Stop payment processors from censoring games!

Not seeing much on my timeline about it anymore, so here's a reminder: payment processors are still trying to censor NSFW content of all kinds, and are in fact getting more aggressive about it; I'm seeing stories of folks losing access every day

Call them & tell them THIS IS BULLSHIT
