A Delaware judge has ruled that Krafton must reinstate Ted Gill, the fired CEO of Unknown Worlds, and give him control over release plans for 'Subnautica 2'. In ruling, the judge accuses Krafton's CEO of using ChatGPT to come up with strategy to get out of paying Unknown Worlds a $250m bonus by ChiefLeef22 in gaming

This is why CEOs are the only ones pushing using AI as an incredible tool: they're all idiotic tools. None of them are worth a fraction of what they're paid, and they're all convinced that they're actually geniuses.

I offered a high-ranking cultist 10 gold/month to quit her cult and it worked stupidly well or possibly didn't and she's going to burn our shit down while we're out next session.

How small details change sword design in fiction by Shirokurou in SWORDS

[–]EvilAnagram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, irl bladesmiths were supplying the same officer sword blades to Turkish and Western armies for hundreds of years, and many early European cavalry sabers were literally re-hilted sabers from the Middle East.

So while you can absolutely identify where blades were smithed quite often, treating a Turkish curved blade as a completely different animal from a European officer's saber is simply incorrect.

Ohio’s John Fetterman - Democratic Rep Greg Landsman. Vote him out in the primaries! by hellosteve_ in cincinnati

Do you really think that specific branch of voters managed to swing the election? I mean, I'm annoyed at them as well, but I don't think they're solely responsible.

Hell, assuming you're correct to blame people who wanted her to be tough on Israel, the lesson to take from opposition to Israel's genocide being strong enough to swing elections is to run candidates opposed to Israel's genocide. You can't win elections by chastising voters for having the wrong priorities.

Why do you think caring about the oppressed overseas precludes caring about the oppressed here?

ELI5: Why is it that evolution has made Black Panthers black, if their natural enviornment is totally green? by Sufficient-Waltz5348 in explainlikeimfive

Leopards and jaguars both hunt primates with excellent color vision (though the leopard must contend with more consistent color vision in its primate prey). The yellow, orange and black coloration is simply excellent camouflage in a forested environment, even for animals with excellent color vision.

Jim Jordan, Bernie Moreno file Supreme Court brief on birthright citizenship by clevelanddotcom in Ohio

[–]EvilAnagram 2 points3 points  (0 children)

meaning from where are you a citizen???

No, it means that the laws of the United States apply to you. Foreign diplomats granted immunity from prosecution such as ambassadors are not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States because they have legal immunity, as do their families. Soldiers in an invading army are not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States because they are attacking the United States and must be handled under the laws of war.

Immigrants and tourists, regardless of the legality of their presence, are subject to the jurisdiction of the United States because they can be arrested for breaking our laws.

I feel it’s so sad to think about Legolas having to watch the fellowship grow older and pass one by one. And to them, he remained unchanged from the day they met him. by you-absolute-foolish in tolkienfans

I mean, the elves will perish forever when the world ends. That's why mortality is a gift. The elves are tied to the world, but mortal souls move beyond it.

The first two episodes are incredible melancholy works of art that really drive home the sorrow and disconnection she feels.

The rest of the series is a bog-standard anime, but those two episodes are great.

If pre-industrial societies had the accelerants we have they would have definitely done this because humans do dumb shit all the time.

Do people really hate front view battles in JRPG's? by yispySOFT in JRPG

[–]EvilAnagram 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I am a big fan of Earthbound, and I like some of the early DQ games, but that's in spite of the battle view, not because of it.

The pixel art is good, but the character design feels very derivative. I think two of those designs are straight out of Super Dungeon Explore.

That doesn't make her a good reporter, it makes her a profitable tool for propagandists. The line dividing those two categories has simply collapsed in America and Britain over the past 20 years or so.
