I guess we have to make that post their top post now

Someone else that remembers /r/subsimulatorgpt2. It was fun seeing the bots posting nonsense until they have to shut it down.

Now, not so much…

I remember there was a subreddit that’s dedicated to bots using gpt posting nonsense. No non bots are allowed to post there, and sometimes when there’s gold we post it on a sister sub to comment on them. IIRC the way it works is there’s a bunch of bots that scan some top something subreddits and post in the gpt sub. So for example there would be a /r/worldnews_bot, /r/aww_bot, etc. you get the idea.

In English class (am not from English speaking country) and exams, I always pick the fiction essay category. The school here (back 20 years ago, dunno how they do it now) has formatted essays (like writing a (in)formal letter, or a report) choice for easy marks. I don’t like writing those. For what it’s worth, I got on average A’s on my English exams. There’s a minimum word count to reach for free essays, and I used to get comments from my teacher to cut it short and not go past double the word count lol. Sadly I don’t remember what that word count was. I am very thankful for my teacher for encouraging my class to read and practice writing English so much. I even have a pocket thesaurus/dictionary I carry everywhere back then alongside whatever novel I was reading that time.

Point is, idk what my point is lol. Just sharing.

Edit: so okay maybe a point can be said about interest of the topic in writing (essays). I did bad on any other topic essays (geography, history, not science though I scored those essays).

I’m not too surprised really. modding old games and the mod pack takes literal decades to finish. for example red alert 2, tiberium sun, CNC generals (and zero hour) just for the ones that interest me.

bugs exists. modders fix bugs. especially so for games that are still getting updates, even one as scarcely updated as Terraria. I recall some long time ago the Terraria devs said the game is “finished” and then later on some big anniversary year they released a surprise update. my memory is faulty so don’t quote me

oh hey, I just installed swiff last night, and another well timed (at least as far as I encounter it) Bryant article about it. 🤩

It’s why I’ve been looking for smaller channels that have old phones and compared them with less older phones. Sadly I’m not finding any luck with this that I felt quality enough.

One of the feet pics I’m okay with

Yeah that’s weird. Quite a few of the smaller refurb shops here (south East Asia) just pirate Windows and Office suite.

What I’m worried about is some of those greedy fuckhead parasites would start courting big indie studios and AA games and ruining a part of that scene

Only the most ardent AI worshippers believe these aren’t PR stunts.

I mean they have to explain it somehow.

Everything is psy-ops

Another app that allows tagging users is Interstellar. The neat thing with Interstellar is it has built in comments consolidation with posts that are cross-posted or are link posts with the same link. Pretty neat because even on a piefed based instance consolidation doesn’t work if you’re not using the web UI.

Dunno how I did it long ago before I sold my soul to corporate music streaming (and now stopped paying) but I decided to go with /Music/Artist/[Year Of] Album/## Song

Haven’t figured out playlist yet. Then I make sure the tags are correct such as for genres and other stuff

I use YouTube Music Morphe in lieu of Spotify just for discovery. And now one of the later patches added listenbrainz scrobbling. I can have two algorithms for discovery.

Well in any case of misunderstanding how that works, some songs that I listen to is YouTube only. since people have been uploading music, including original music, to YouTube since before google bought them.

And I still want to rebuild my offline library. can’t rely on online streaming only for when the world goes to shit.

I sometimes wonder what TB would become if the cancer didn’t kill him. I keep wishing he would turned out decent, but the stress of him dealing with cancer starting to show some cracks. I understand, cancer sucks major ass though.

I’m disappointed that my fascination for sword staves came from his video, and he turned out to be a bigoted pro AI chud that is jealous of his own brother because his brother is reaping the hard work he put up as an artist

Don’t worry, more and more banks are going to apps where they “outsource” all security to Apple and Google on their respective phone OS security implementation. At least on android, the apps will detect if accessibility functions (and developer’s options) are turned on and will refuse to run the app. Who even needs accessibility right? Like there’s no less able bodied people using smartphones. And what’s that? It’s your phone? No, silly customer, we banks must protect you from getting scammed by policing your device. It’s the bank’s property. You bought that phone on financing anyways, so it really isn’t your property.

I am definitely not angry at this outcome. I bought my phone fair and square

Others have covered various points with better words than I can, so I’m going to share a website that is covering mobile phone games releases. not affiliated in any way

https://minireview.io/

Is was developed and maintained by a youtuber covering mobile games. Although he haven’t uploaded to youtube in a year. And I don’t usually check the site so it could be outdated.

And I see mobile ports of pc games are taking more care in translating physical controls to touch screen controls. Still not the rule and definitely the exception, but it is out there. Latest one I remember off the top of my head is balatro and ballxpit.

It’s already happening. Check out gamenative and winlator. Russ also have covered this various times

And with Valve releasing the Steam Frame and their Lepton and FEX compatibility tools, I hope it’s going to supercharge adoption
