  • Xbox chief Phil Spencer is leaving Microsoft

    Jump

  • Phil was probably the last thing keep Xbox from fully imploding. You could tell he was an actual gamer that cared about the Xbox as a games console and not whatever Frankenstein they are going to turn it into.

    It’s sad but Xbox had a really good run. Xbox won’t exist beyond the next console generation, it may not even make it that far before it just becomes gamepass.

  • Mastodon is testing easier ways to get you started in the fediverse

    Jump

  • I get it, but reader-funded journalism is always better than advertiser-funded. But if the reporting isn’t worth paying for to you, I don’t blame you for skipping them. I feel the same way some times. One article might be worth paying for but I’m not so interested in what they report to justify a full subscription.

  • My Mario – Launch Trailer

    Jump

  • Seems kind of icky to immerse that young of a child into brands like that. I ended up letting my kids play Mario with me whenever they started showing interest in it which was around 3 or 4.

    It’s probably harmless, lots of people buy apparel for their baby with their favorite sports team and such on it. I think I’m just so black pilled on capitalism that I can’t see it unbiased anymore. Sorry for a bummer politically adjacent rant on the Nintendo community…

  • Why has Trump stopped talking about Greenland in the last few weeks?

    Jump

  • It was doing enough to distract from the fact he’s in the Epstein list so it’s usefulness was over.

  • Saying that hardware price increase is good cause it forces the devs to optimize is not as good as it seems.

    Jump

  • I thought the steam deck would have been priced higher than it was as well, so I thought that they’d probably surprise us with a $600 machine. $800 made sense for the specs (Now I expect it to be $1000)

    Once GPU prices super inflated 6 or 7 years ago, I got out of PC gaming for new titles. I built a top spec machine for $1200 in 2012 (when I had disposable income and no kids), that barely gets you an entry level today. I guess PC gaming, for new titles at least, will forever be out of my budget.

  • Saying that hardware price increase is good cause it forces the devs to optimize is not as good as it seems.

    Jump

  • I was gonna upgrade when the steam machine came out but with the likely price hike taking it to $800+ I think I’ll just keep playing 20 year old Call of Duty: United Offensive

  • Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's "Zionist Bar Problem"

    Jump

  • This will probably be unpopular but the leftist - liberal infighting is my least favorite part of the fediverse and why I usually end up having to give people a warning before telling them to get on the fediverse.

    This drama is kind of the epitome of that

  • Cloudflare now serves sites in Markdown to AI agents

    Jump

  • Does this mean that if I pretend to be a bot, I can access any cloudflare site ad-free?

  • Which is it?.

    Jump

  • As long as it is roasted in salt and olive oil, the whole thing is good

  • An AI Agent Published a Hit Piece on Me

    Jump

  • It’s the same thing as people who are concerned about AI generating non-consensual sexual imagery.

    Sure anyone with photoshop could have done it before but unless they had enormous skill they couldn’t do it convincingly and there were well defined precedents that they broke the law. Now Grok can do it for anyone who can type a prompt and cops won’t do anything about it.

    So yes, anyone could have technically done it before but now it’s removing the barriers that prevented every angry crazy person with a keyboard from being able to cause significant harm.

  • An AI Agent Published a Hit Piece on Me

    Jump

  • He’s not telling you to be terrified of the single bot writing a blog post. He’s telling you to be terrified of the blog post being ingested by other bots and then seen as a source of truth. Resulting in AI recruiters automatically rejecting his resume for job postings. Or for other agents deciding to harass him for the same reason.

    Edit: I do agree with you that he was a little lenient with how he speaks about the capabilities of it. The fact that they are incompetent and still seen as a source of truth for so many is what alarms me

  • Tim Cook Faces FTC Warning Over Apple News Curation

    Jump

  • I thought Apple News was a glorified RSS reader prefilled with subscriptions to various feeds. I didn’t realize they did curation.

  • Do you have hope for Generation Alpha?

    Jump

  • My Gen Alpha children will probably lead happy and fulfilling lives. Sure they don’t have a privileged childhood but they have food security and two loving parents which is the best predictor of future adult happiness that I know of.

  • Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month

    Jump

  • Discord isn’t getting my ID. Not that I am in any servers that would be affected. But concerning that if discord wanted to chill us out without hard banning our community, they could just make us age restricted

  • Why PlayStation Graphics Wobble, Flicker And Twitch

    Jump

  • Depends on who you ask I guess.

  • Why PlayStation Graphics Wobble, Flicker And Twitch

    Jump

  • Floating point numbers. Floating point integer is an oxymoron 🤓

  • Ad blocking is alive and well, despite Chrome's attempts to make it harder

    Jump

  • I hate it because it’s an unethical practice to manipulate or mislead and all modern advertising uses dark patterns to try to get you to overconsume.

    The ADHD distress is just another side effect of all that

  • Flock CEO calls Deflock a “terrorist organization”

    Jump

  • Funny because I consider Flock a terrorist organization

  • Brilliant, innit?

    Jump

  • I agree with you, chalk it up to a lesson learned for the small business owner. He likely doesn’t know better. Not everyone is as tech minded as Lemmy.

    This behavior isn’t changing minds about AI. Just making people hate you and your cause
