Calling it "stealing comments" is an interesting way of rewording for what is obviously bot spam.

Reddit is dying. Spez is a degenerate freak, a scam artist, and a Nazi. The OpenAI training platform / propaganda website begins to circle the drain. Microsoft is starting to lose the last iota of goodwill they once had.

Nothing about Reddit looks good into the future and no one, with serious cash, is going to invest in a dying platform run by a scam artist, a freak, and a Nazi.

The questions now are, "How long?" and "What's next?"

Someone once told me the dub for Mushoku Tensei was better than the sub. That person was a liar.

Also, that anime is incredibly weird.

You're wrong on point #1. This isn't being done per Sam Altman for commercial purposes. It's being done per Microsoft in an attempt to remove the OpenAI board completely. Facebook recently shutdown its AI Ethics division.

All of this is happening in conjunction with each other. Large corporations are trying to privatize AI and using key personnel in the industry to make it seem like a good thing. This wasn't just Sam Altman. Whoever drafted the letter demanding the board steps down is working with Microsoft to do this.

More than likely, that group went around spreading doomsday to the other employees in an attempt to scare them into fleeing the company.

Sam Altman is just a pawn.

HoMM3 with WoG mod is a ton of fun. Songs of Conquest is 4X I believe. Also great fun.

I think EXplore is the big thing for me. The more incentive you have to explore, and the more content to be explored, the more enjoyable the game is.

I way prefer Sci-Fantasy, but it's a toss up between the Sci or the Fantasy.

I think Grand Strategy is where I'm at right now, and I tend to focus a lot of games in that area.

What is the smartest way to get into Stellaris right now? I'm waiting for the whole DLC package to get marked down in November or something like that. The Steam Workshop pretty much controls mods right now, so GoG isn't an option from what I've read.

For people who play Stellaris regularly, I recognize that the game has been less popular recently. Is there a specific reason for that?

I don't know why people are disagreeing with you.

This is like someone setting up a fake stop on a public road to mug people.

You're telling me that the state shouldn't have the right to police the road to prevent that from happening?

Lemmy.people, are you high?

Oof... Yeah this.

When you have a corporation that acts as a stand in for the law, something very wrong has happened.

-youtube is something I'll use more often I think.

It really is amazing how many tutorials there are for something as simple as "what is the hotkey for x".

It is annoying. Not gonna lie.

They'll just murder a bunch of people and then be turned off after having been shown to be ~~ineffective~~ too dangerous.

It's not like AI is reliable at this point. Way too many people are actively ignoring experts pointing this fact out and instead obsessing over Skynet or w/e made up sci-fi BS.

Rather than be used for war, they'll be used for threats of violence and propaganda. It's not a new problem. It's just a new version of that same problem.

I have to strongly agree here. This needs to be a strongly written and enforced rule for social media. Dates and timestamps need to be extremely clear and a requirement for all sorts of news reporting.

Gas giants are more like the Sun than the Earth. You cannot really stand on them for instance as they don't really have a terrain in which to do so. They are primarily gaseous, which is why they are called gas giants.

Also, having a floating city on a gas giant makes no sense either. It's similar to suggesting that a star could have a floating city hovering directly above its atmosphere. That's not possible IRL, and it's confusing for a science-fiction video game to have that kind of element while striving for realism.

Overall, I feel more confused by the idea that people think this makes sense than to yell "confidently incorrect". Interesting though.
