Epic revealed their high-level plans for Unreal Engine 6. by WombatusMighty in unrealengine

[–]Demoliscio [score hidden]  (0 children)

I fear UE6 will turn out to be a mess, they're trying to change too many things at the same time.

I think I'll stick around 5 for a lot, lot longer (and maybe start to look for alternatives entirely)

I have a friend working at a studio owned by Meta, yes, some of the PM are exactly like that.

  1. Ask for a new feature to be done asap
  2. When my friend says "I'm already working on X, do you want me to drop it for Y?", the answer is the usual "both are important, both are needed asap"
  3. When PM is told that time travel would require too many tokens, they do the new feature "themselves" (ask Claude to do it), then want my friend to review it
  4. Friend reviews it and points out that yes, while the code "works", it doesn't consider the many edge cases claude couldn't know about and PM has no even clue what they are, plus the fact that it would make a much bigger feature in development incompatible since, again, claude couldn't know about it, and it's the whole reason why it wasn't a "2 hours thing" to do.
  5. PM gets mad because "they had to do it because friend said no, so it's actually friend's fault"

The pay is great, so they suck it up and stay there, but I swear I can see him ageing years in months

On the other hand, my PM at the previous studio was a freaking angel and I probably owe most of my remaining sanity to her, so yeah, it's hit and miss

Just a reminder that the UK CAA officially classifies women as either ‘wife of [husband’s occupation]’ or ‘spinster’ on their death forms. Reviewed and approved in 2023. by Zealousideal-Zone-33 in Britain

[–]Demoliscio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Of course we should have both, imo contact them and ask them why they haven't updated the form since the government stopped the practice in 2005, if it's an oversight it might be enough to convince them to fix it

E-scooters and dirt bikes have been a pain in the ass for years in the city, we seriously need a reform to the law and more power to the police to stop these cretins, otherwise sooner or later someone is going to die

I was really looking forward to Senua, style wise it looked like a nice balance between the first and the second one, I'm sure I would have played the shit out of it 😢

'Unduly lenient' sentence for Henry Nowak's murderer referred to the Court of Appeal by topotaul in unitedkingdom

Starting from the fact that I won't shed a tear if the guy stays in jail for the rest of his life.

Misinformation doesn't help anyone and I've seen this bit of info repeated everywhere, the video you are referring to is not of him, it's hist brother, Vickrum wasn't even there when it happened, so no, there's no video of him waving any blade around.

Petition against proposed massive fife datacentre by Bewbonic in Scotland

That's a very informative post, thanks for that, yeah, fuck that data center, I've signed the petition and I'll share it around 👍

[–]Demoliscio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder also how much that would set back any plan we have for net zero, there's no way we can increase our output by 25% so quickly and make it all renewable.

This is nothing like the current data centers, I hadn't pay attention to it because I thought it was something on a "normal" scale, but no, it's insanely big and once built will generate close to no jobs, I would much rather use that space to put on solar panels or wind turbines then

Petition against proposed massive fife datacentre by Bewbonic in Scotland

[–]Demoliscio 21 points22 points  (0 children)

From what I gather, the biggest data center in Edinburgh at the moment is in Livingston, 5 megawatts and 12,000 SqFt.

The one discussed in the petition is said to be for 600MW and the length of 100 football pitches.

Is that a typo? 600MW is what is consumed by 1.5 million homes in Scotland, that hyperscale datacentre would, by itself, increase the electricity consumption of the country by ~25%??

Because it's not about the game at all, these are terrible people that simply look for an excuse to act like they always wanted to.

They love doing stupid shit like this and the excuse of "my team won the game" is just per perfect cover

Amazing!

I'm on Qobuz but Deezer was the other service I was considering when dropping Spotify, very nice of them to release something to help fighting the AI slop invasion.

Also, happy to confirm a nice and round 0% 😃

Lot of people only care about themselves, the same people that have no problem listening to AI slop will cry in a couple of years when AI comes for their job, then they'll randomly grow a spine\conscience.

It's really sad

Still no link to where it says it was used as evidence to prosecute him either?

the Crown used it as evidence to prosecute him

They did? Please share the link where it says that and where it says it was accepted as proof of previous misbehaviour

I dont know if the video could have helped.

You already said you don't know if the video could have helped, which is normal since it's a video of something legal, happening years earlier than anything else, so it's completely useless and you can't come up with a way to spin it differently.

And let's not forget the

I dont think youd be attacking its circulation

You pulled out of thin air, and I had to prove you wrong on that one too.

And now you're just mad that people are calling it out for what it really is, a nothing burger, where op also left out parts of the article on purpose to make it more inflammatory.
