  • ‘A feedback loop with no brake’: how an AI doomsday report shook US markets

    Jump

  • Delivering food has a cost and is a service. Before things like doordash you could only get delivery from select locations, by creating a network of drivers you can now get delivery from most restaurants.

    Does doordash exploit people and restaurants, yes. However, providing a delivery service is not rent seeking there is something being offered.

  • Doordash isn't rent extraction though, and is a system that benefits from a singular platform. That doesn't mean Doordash is the best implementation of that service, but the example isn't good.

  • Trump's Approval Rating Hits New Low Amid Independent Voter Exodus

    Jump

  • If Europe really moves away from big tech and new trade deals are made around the US, then those gains will be short lived.

  • In less than a year, Trump erased 12 years of solvency for the trust fund that pays for Medicare Part A | Fortune

    Jump

  • Yeah, taxing retirement pay to pay for retirement Healthcare sounds a little circuitous.

    Not good that they didn't identify a way to replace that funding when changing things (as is the republican way), but can understand the argument of not taxing Social Security.

  • He's hurting everyone's wallets, there are only so many diversions and Lies you can get away with while peoples wallets are empty.

    Whats amazing is he took over after Biden had more or less fixed inflation (yeah, wages were still catching up, but it was more or less solved). He was handed a golden opportunity to push his policies if he just laid off the tarrifs. Instead he's taken a fairly solid and growing economy and decimated it in a year.

    The only thing I can hope for is that some people start to recognize republicans are terrible at managing the economy.

  • European alternatives to Google Translate? Preferably not LLM.

    Jump

  • Just for awareness, Google Translate is based on LLMs. Translation is actually why LLMs were initially made and you won't find a better method for translation (besides hiring a translator). The thing you're looking for is an LLM only for translation.

  • Xbox’s leadership shift proves it: the gamer era is over, AI runs the show now

    Jump

  • To be honest Phil's just done a bad job at the helm or maybe wasn't empowered to do the things that needed to be done. Everything since the xbox360 has been weak from Microsoft, although Sony has really only held on due to some banger first party games.

    Nintendo continues to understand that you need to offer something different in the console space to remain relevant. While the steam deck (and other handheld) are coming for the switch, they at least offer something unique.

  • Typical Monthly Payment in the Nashville Metro Area

    Jump

  • Luckily it's been staying relatively flat the past few years. Based on the prepandemic trend line, we would reach current rates in another four years, so it'll be interesting to see what happens.

  • Don't create .gitkeep files, use .gitignore instead

    Jump

  • It's talking about how to track empty directories. Maybe I'm just lazy, but I just throw a readme or something in an empty directory if I want it tracked.

  • Video games are losing the "attention war" to gambling, porn, and crypto, according to industry report

    Jump

  • I mean, at that point a lot of games are also gambling.

  • Susan Collins hands Trump the 50th vote against free and fair elections

    Jump

  • I mean, when has she actually done something good? Even in the article they say she votes with Trump 98% of the time (more than Rand Paul).

  • Social Security payments predicted to be cut in 2032

    Jump

  • Too late for that now. We're past the surplus years.

  • Quantum teleportation demonstrated over existing fiber networks — Deutsche Telekom’s T‑Labs used commercially available Qunnect hardware for the demo, claims 90% average accuracy

    Jump

  • This is about "teleporting" information not physical material (if my understanding is correct)

  • Favorite Mario Party...

    Jump

  • Yeah, 8 was the last one I remember enjoying. I think I tried one of the switch versions, but the boards were really boring. The fun things I liked in 8 was that the board events changed the map/pathways a fair amount.

  • The audacity

    Jump

  • Man jailed for a year after endorsing neo-Nazi views and making antisemitic speech at Sydney rally on Australia Day

    Jump

  • I mean, I'd hope you'd have to prove intent to commit a crime, which would be the crime. Saying the words alone shouldn't be a crime.

  • Mewgenics becomes the most-played roguelite ever on Steam

    Jump

  • Let's be honest with ourselves combocore is really just another phrase for rhythm games, which let's you aggregate things like guitar hero (rythmncombos) and DMC (actioncombos), as it's all about hitting buttons at the right time interval. Surprisingly many darksouls also fall into the combocore/rythmn category - sekiro and Lies of P (with their parrying/dodging timing) which we'll now call soulcombos.

    Now we just need to start promoting this through the steam tags.

  • Mewgenics becomes the most-played roguelite ever on Steam

    Jump

  • And yet I tend to like most games that fall into the "rouge lite" category. It feels too broad and yet also seems to work to classify games.

    I think it may just be a bit like "RPG" or "Action" that are actually very wide categories that now have a lot of subcategories to help better explain them.

  • Removed

    Tucker Carlson 'detained' in Israel as passport taken from him after interview

    Jump

  • Sounds like they released them pretty quickly as they are apparently back in the US. From the article Tuckerson said "It was bizarre. We’re now out of the country."
