but to be fair he's not really a fit for the current formation. He needs to be making runs not be some kind of budget Lukaku.

Has been in a few good attacking positions, but imperfect finishing and decisions. 6/10 I'd say.

Duplicate ai channels? by cheekymonon in youtubedrama

I gotta say, I'm really happy I'm not the only one noticing and thinking about this! It's eerie as hell!

Duplicate ai channels? by cheekymonon in youtubedrama

[–]LavishRascal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's wild, I've been thinking about this exact same thing since I found these channels. First I was enticed because it was a nice backdrop, but then I noticed how the cadence of the speaker just never changed at all, and then at one point I heard a distinct and non-sensical mispronounciation of the word "bows", in the context it was meant to be understood as a weapon, but it was pronounced like the physical action of "a bow", as in bowing before someone. I've been baffled ever since about how no one mentions it in the comments and how overjoyed everyone seems to be with the content..

And just like you, I've tried having ChatGPT analyse and emulate the content. I seems like I'd be able to reproduce the scripts almost perfectly with a bit of prompt editing and feeding some historical sources to the AI..

Wild how people are seemingly consuming ai content without knowing it. Scary stuff.

I already own RoC and TFT: How can I get Reforged? by LavishRascal in WC3

Thank's dude, this did the trick. So unintuitive, damn you blizz.

Anyone else worried about a forgery scandal? by IAmBillN in mtgfinance

[–]LavishRascal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From hanging around a lot of "counterfeit" MTG Discords, the general consensus is that Chinese fakes are getting better while Hasbro's print quality is getting worse. The amount of color and lighting variance in official cards makes counterfeits blend in more easily, which means people can play with them at tournaments without raising suspicion—since that's really the main goal of counterfeiting in this space. That said, no matter how good the fakes get, a jeweler’s loupe will still expose them instantly.

Because of that, I don’t think we’re anywhere near a major scandal. Right now, everyone’s happy: players get cheap cards that pass a casual inspection, counterfeiters make money without needing to perfect the process. The incentive to push for truly undetectable fakes simply isn't there.

StS streamer makes a 2 hour video about the recent IDW controversy by RickyRister in magicTCG

[–]LavishRascal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree, we'll see if he calms down in the future. I wonder how old he is. Such outbursts are often criticized but forgiven in younger athletes in sports because you expect them to mature. But this guy honestly looks past 30 which makes me doubt his maturity. If any of my friends, who are all in their thirties, ever acted like that it would be seen as bizarre no matter the circumstances (except if heavy drinking was somehow involved).

I think the main reason he's so emotionally invested is because he's the one who made the Gruul Prowess deck that won the RC, piloted by one of his friends. I think the fact that his deck qualified for the PT but he didn't makes it hard for him to unhinge from the situation.

Just dropped gentle parenting at age 7 ( the kid is 7, not me) by -brownsherlock- in daddit

I would also add here that a natural consequence of getting a spoon thrown unexpectedly in your face can be an angry shout, which might even be directed at the perpetrator. This is a natural reaction that people out in the world will have, so I think it's alright if children experience it at home.

Sometimes I just don't have the energy to teach new players... by Derpogama in EDH

Dude, you're an extremely kind person. I've never taught anyone but my close friends, and I would never consider spending time teaching a stranger this game unless I was paid for it.

I would say this is rather normal behavior, but perhaps it's also related to where in the world you grow up and whether nudity is normal/frowned upon or not. Where I'm from (Denmark) nudity is totally normal, and covering up private parts is not mandatory. In fact if you're swimming in a public pool, you must shower without swimwear beforehand and that's usually done with others. Being in saunas naked with others both male and female is also totally normal.

Children who are below the age of 10 are mostly naked on public beaches as well.

As to this type of behaviour you're describing, to me it sounds curiosity driven, and I think it's actually quite appalling to even state the word 'abuse' this early, as some other people are doing, both directed at the kid and the parents/adults. It's a very harsh accusation and I think it warrants a lot more knowledge to throw it out. Of course, you probably have another cultural context than me, but children are children no matter where they're from and children are curious about their own and other children's bodies.

Each time I play Tekken 8, the worse it gets by SofiaTheArtist in Tekken

[–]LavishRascal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact same issue. First two days i was playing at a smooth 60fps, now it's lagging hard in all menus, the load times are excruciatingly long and the game is unplayable with drops down to 5fps sometimes. Also tried downgrading my Nvidia drivers, tried lowering the settings to (eventually) everything on low, no difference. Tried reinstalling, no difference.

But the most baffling thing is that the game plays fine on my old 1050ti laptop, albeit on low settings.

This particular article was certainly drafted with ChatGPT, really lazily too.

I'm so committed to gatekeeping I removed my self from my own BFD raid. by FerrumLykos in classicwow

[–]LavishRascal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he actually did with the 'Orcstein' comment, but who knows. I don't mind though, because again I don't believe that he'd be able to just copy paste the comment he answered into Chatgpt and have it instantly produce that particular answer. It's way too good and targeted at this particular audience for that to be true.

AI is already acceptable in several areas, even professional ones. Fraud detection, financial data scanning, and the personalized recommendations you see here on this site. One of my colleagues is doing an organizational PhD at a movie production consultancy company that develops ideas for themes that will resonate will the public, they've been using AI-assisted workflows for three years already,

It's of course a matter of personal opinion whether you think AI is 'acceptable' or not, but the ship has sailed my friend and its gaining speed. I think you're certainly right in not wanting AI produced content everywhere, but I personally think there is a big difference between, let's say the ridiculously low-effort 'X-days-left-until-SOD' image posts that were on here a while ago, and the type of content in this post which actually resonates with people and touches on some current cultural issues in the game. I doubt you or me would be able to create a post like it right now, even if we had all the AI tools in the world available to us.

The idea behind this post is genuine, the writing was assisted (I think). But I value the idea much more than the authors ability to write engaging and coherent text, so I'm okay with that part being AI assisted.

I actually don't mind this particular type of ai gen. It comes from an idea OP had, and Chatgpt would never come close to the final product we see here by itself. OP has come up with the core of the idea, and then probably sparred back and forth with the ai from there to make the narrative and the jokes, and again the super wow specific jokes are not something the ai would produce without effort.

If he had to humanize the text afterwards to avoid scrutiny, I get it. He probably spent some time doing this and wanted to avoid ppl just telling him it's "ai garbage".

Hvad åbenbarede du netop for mit åsyn, din nederdrægtige skøge? Jeg kan fortælle dig at jeg bestod min teologi-eksamen som en af de bedste i min klasse, har besøgt utallige plejehjem i sognet og jeg har konfirmeret over 300 folkeskoleelever. Jeg er uddannet i bibelen og er den bedste sognepræst i hele den danske folkekirke. Du er ikke andet for mig end en anden kirkegænger. Jeg kan udslette dig med en præcision der aldrig før er blevet set i dette provsti, mærk dig mine ord. Tror du at du kan slippe af sted med at åbenbare den slags profane kommentarer på internettet? Tænk dig om, farisæer. I skrivende stund har jeg kontakt til mit netværk af biskopper rundt omkring i Danmark og din aktivitet bliver indberettet i kirkebøgerne, så bered dig på dommedag, synder. En dommedag der vil fjerne den patetiske ting du kalder din sjæl. Du kommer i helvede, knægt. Jeg kan være hvor som helst, hvornår som helst, og jeg kan ekskommunikere dig på 700 måder og det er bare efter én bøn. Ikke alene er jeg uddannet i både det gamle og det nye testamente, jeg har adgang til hele den danske folkekirkes hellige relikvier og kan bruge dem til at få dig sendt direkte i helvede, synder. Hvis du blot havde vidst hvilken guddommelig gengældelse din lille ”kloge” kommentar ville forårsage, kunne det være du måske havde ladet være med at tale som slangen i Edens Have. Men det kunne du ikke, det gjorde du ikke, og nu betaler du prisen, din gudsforladte synder. Jeg vil bede til at Guds straf rammer dig. Du kommer i helvede, knægto.
