I personally think you could very easily divide the main series fallout titles (and 76 because IDK if it’s main series or just a spin-off or what) into the west vs east coast games. Not gonna say one is objectively better than the other, but I personally like the story of the west coast games better.

Good call. Let’s ban them both.

I’m personally on the fence about this type of stuff. On one hand, yes I 100% agree about actually keeping kids safer online (not like the politicians “Think of the kids!” type of “safety”). On the other I don’t want anyone to have to give up privacy by having to confirm their age by sending some form of verification, whether that picture/video of ID with birth date on it or having an AI that will inevitably get so many false positives judge you, just to access a service online.

It can definitely work if you’ve trained it right. It’s how I discovered many of my now favorite vocaloid/utau/deepvocal/whatever songs, amongst other groups outside of that vocal synth genre. It definitely isn’t doing me super dirty in the music department.

In a way, this sounds similar to someone using a DiffSinger or ENUNU voicebank to make music, but without having to write all the lyrics word/syllable for word/syllable on individual notes and change the notes they’re on individually because you pitched them wrong. Also without the backing track too.

Either way, interesting enough that you can even do this kinda stuff. Especially since any time I’ve played around with that kind of AI, it’s always never turned out even remotely halfway decent in any way.

Any sort of jokes about hoarding toilet paper or anything else ridiculous during the pandemic. I’ve always thought they were already cringe to begin with, but I assume that if society doesn’t completely collapse before the 2030s that people will hopefully look back and call those cringe.

I don’t believe it’s cursed at all, but my parents and older brother believe some small Japanese statue doll thing of a geisha (supposed to be holding a shamisen, but it’s missing) that they ended up giving to me to store in my room is cursed. Since I don’t think it’s cursed, I have no issue holding onto it.

Showed up one day on the dinner table one day and I’m fairly certain my brother got it and was either too drunk or high on weed (or a combo of both) to remember picking it up while he was out. I don’t believe him when he says he doesn’t know where it came from.

If every company started jumping off a bridge, would you follow? /s

In all honesty, just because other companies are using AI doesn’t mean you should. Can’t wait for the AI bro bubble to pop and fully deflate.

Sadly the only people who would switch over to an actual Linux phone would be the people like the stereotypical Linux using Lemmy user. The average android user would just continue on like nothing happened because they’re not tech literate enough to know what’s going on or why they should care.

Got back into my New Vegas run. I have a good feeling that some time within the next few centuries I might even finish the game for the first time in my life.

Nothing against the game so far but kinda how I feel after playing a short amount of time in a cheap furry VN I got on steam. Not enough character portrait things.

Can’t wait for people to find out they just programmed the AI to reject all claims and then once it gets discovered, that person be silenced permanently.

And just like every other time, it’s China promising to work with the US while crossing their fingers behind their back and the US coming out of it for the n-th time thinking “they’re finally gonna listen to us”.

Nothing ever changes if open dialogue is your main choice of weapon.

This is one of the absolute greatest reasons to support opening most everything in a new tab (as long as you don’t end up like my mom who at one point had over 100 tabs on her phone). Doesn’t matter if it’s a link from the same website, from a search engine, or whatever else there is. New tab.

Fair enough. Though knowing them they’d just find something extremely popular like pokemon or the latest CoD and have the AI make games like those.

When an AI is able to take and write every single line of code, generate all the art, and debug it just by having someone as code dumb as a CEO type in a prompt, I’ll believe his words and eat my shirt.

At this point, there are definitely plenty, but I’d personally say my top picks are definitely (in no particular order):

• Brok the Investigator

• Franklin (yes I’m a child at heart sometimes)

• New Vegas and the DLCs

• Borderlands (on xbox360 w/ all 4 DLCs, have been playing on and off for over a decade and still have way too much stuff left)

• An American Tail (definitely in my top 3, if not my absolute favorite 3D animated film ever)

In other news, oil tycoons have already begun making as much propaganda as possible as to why the world needs Antarctic oil for your car and why it’s more environmentally friendly than any other source of fuel.

I’d say /s but I’m pretty sure they’re still putting out pro oil propaganda because their lives and riches depend on destroying the planet.

Call me a bit old fashioned, but Lupin III. Regardless of which part or movie, I tend to enjoy some of the sometimes wacky antics that occur.

As an arachnophobe, I personally made it my mission to block that community without looking so I’d never have to see it again. Can’t stand spiders.
