DarkViperAU made a pretty decent series about a particular version of what you describe: reacters

With the endless ethical and legal issues around GenAI, I would very much hope that Valve continues being cautious (even if it's evidently just to cover their own arses). Once we have models and datasets for AI generated game assets that are trained from entirely ethical sources (artist permissions, licences, etc.) and not just the "scrape everything and train our models from that" approach that is currently used, then maybe it could be a good thing for games. Even still, the generated assets will likely have no copyright (as is the case now), so we'll surely end up at "AI generated content flip games" flooding Steam.
ooo lovely. 1, 4 and 6 are my favourites.
you should do a "kbinaut" style one but with the bird in a bin for the "kbinners" : D
Upon my 3rd or 4th pass through of Life Is Strange, I triggered an action that I had no idea was possible. Surprised? Yes. Shocked? Very.
Since Brandon Sanderson's Secret Project #3 came out on Saturday morning (Yumi and the Nightmare Painter) that's what I'm reading for the next week.
Congrats! My partner is currently waiting to get tested for ADHD after realising at the age of 34 that maybe she has it and it's not just other problems or incompetence.
I do believe that Mastodon supports Elasticsearch/Opensearch OOTB, so you're not wrong on NoSQLs being fediverse compatible.
Personally I haven't looked into the kbin stack so I can't give an opinion as to why psql is used over X.
I use RSS feeds (via Newsblur) for most of the news, and Twitter because I still follow too many journos there.
It's very cute! But flocks of cockatoos are deafening and I'm sure someone could read into that somehow 😅
As someone who doesn't (or can't) experience the feeling of nostalgia, this is fascinating. That such a simple act of playing certain games as a kid can make someone 20+ years later experience a set of emotions that makes them yearn for that time.
For me going back to games from my childhood (SNES era) is either because they seem interesting now or because I never finished them back then (Secret Of Mana: one day I will finish you).
I do wholeheartedly agree that nowadays we are massively spoiled for choice, in both the good (holy shit there's so much good stuff that's easy to get) and the bad (financial, choice paralysis).
This thread from a couple of weeks ago (specifically for kbin users) attempted to answer the same question. 'Kbinauts' seems to be the favourite but personally I think 'Kbinners' ('KTrashcans' for the yanks) best.
