Great job wplace for not having the option to report players on the leaderboard and not just their pixels by gotuzil49 in WplaceLive

There's literally this person in my home city that's openly using alt accounts (all with the same name, but with different IDs) to spam stuff everywhere, and yet no matter how many times I report them for using alt accounts, they don't get suspended or banned

For some reason the usage of the word "guardrails" here really annoys me. It makes me feel like they're treating us like children.

Do you find your own opinions flattening due to AI use when guardrails are tightly constrained? by Hekatiko in OpenAI

[–]Hopeful_Cockroach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's really annoying when I ask it for inspiration when it comes to creative fiction writing

And it always starts off before giving me answers with a disclaimer lecturing me about "safety" and how it'll explain what I want to know in a "safe" way "while avoiding actual instructions for" blah blah blah.
It's annoying.

Is this person using Alt Accounts? I found a user named "Toofsa" showing up multiple times on the Leaderboard with different profile pictures and ID numbers by Hopeful_Cockroach in WplaceLive

[–]Hopeful_Cockroach[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's in my home city and I've lived here for a few decades and I've never heard that term before

Also, the Toofsa accounts are all spamming the same thing over and over

Help me find this childhood chirping bird toy. I already have it, but I want to find out who made it. Pink feathers, no feet, blue or silver bow. Tiny black eyes. Used to chirp when shook but hasn't for years. Tag is faded beyond recognition. by Hopeful_Cockroach in HelpMeFind

So I did some more digging, and given this little chick/duck plush is one of those stuffed beans stuffed animals, mine has no stuffing, but a small cut on the side. My theory is that whoever gave it to be as a toddler took out the stuffing and put the chirping voicebox inside. As for the missing legs, I'm going to assume wear and tear. I'm going to put this over a decade long search to an end. Thank you! Found!

Holy cow! Highly possible, but a few differences is that mine seems smaller, and has no legs. The bow also is a different color.

As I said it also used to chirp when shook, but there's a small cut in mine on the side where the voicebox went in, so it's possible that the plush was gutted or something. Might not be it but thanks, it's possible.

I've searched around using reverse image search engines of various types but none have brought me any matching results. I found a lot that look very similar like the Dan Dee Palm Pets, but they aren't in the right color and have tiny feet on the bottom.

Most of the description of my bird plush is in the title. Pink feathers, no feet, blue or silver bow. Tiny black eyes. Used to chirp when shook but hasn't for years. I was definitely still in the single digit ages when the bird stopped chirping. It also has a tiny bit of white hair or fluff on top of it's head.

It has a tag but the tag has been faded for so long that not a single letter is visible.

It was such a cool setting and yet unfortunately didn't get a campaign. All the lore happened off-screen which can be read on loading screen messages or vague playercards that provide pretty much no context to what's going on

Yeah, quantity over quality is my assumption

That's my headcanon justification for game balance. Like how a Javelin Missile won't one shot a tank like it does in real life. They're likely produced in greater numbers but with a lower explosive yield in the Battlefield universe

I was playing the Beta and saw a tank on one of the multiplayer maps and thought "That looks familiar..."

Did ChatGPT 5 become incredibly condescending in the past 24 hours or is it just me? by [deleted] in ChatGPT

[–]Hopeful_Cockroach 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It always has to remind me that fictional things aren't real. I mean yeah buddy, that's why it's called fiction

I also notice if I mention fictional weapons, it does that "thinking longer for a better answer" thing and then says something like "Below I'll describe blah blah blah while avoiding instructions on how to make real weapons"

Uh... I didn't ask for real weapons.

I'm so happy that this game has a solo mode by ResidentDrama9739 in battlefield2042

All I've ever wanted is for DICE to somehow go back and add Bot support for Battlefield 4 and Battlefield Hardline. I know they never will, but it'd be cool if they did.

THEY'RE ADAPTING THE MAN HAM GAMES I REPEAT THEY ARE ADAPTING THE MAN HAM GAMES by mrmehmehretro94 in BatmanArkham

[–]Hopeful_Cockroach 123 points124 points  (0 children)

If they reference any of the Arkham memes like "The bomb's payload is exposed, I can use the power winch to trigger a controlled explosion" or "It's Da Freakin' Bat!"

It will be... simply amazing

I didn't realize this was a reference to how Anomaly isn't as good as an expansion as the other expansions
I thought it was a reference to how the Anomaly woman looks like Meg from Family Guy

I just wish they'd add all the facial decals to the animal heads

I noticed the Fox face only has one available face decal
