    I know people always talk about AI slop being bloated, but I gotta hand it to them—the Epic Games Launcher has been taking up 100% less RAM and disk space ever since I uninstalled it a few days ago.

    Ahh, this just made me realize there’s going to be a point that my “will never give financial details to AI code” stance will become untenable. Not yet, 'cause lol Epic Game Launcher, but still ohnoes

    Maybe SI is inevitable. For the sake of argument, sure. But playing games released after that point isn’t. We got ROMs. We got TTRPGs and VTTs and pen & paper. Stuff that predates generative SI and isn’t polluted by it.
