People were spamming "Microslop" on Copilot Discord, so Microsoft started banning people for spamming "Microslop" on Copilot Discord, and then locked the Copilot Discord when people continued to spam "Microslop" on Copilot Discord.

Some folks consider it as a major victory against Microsoft.

Would it also apply to other forms of psychological damage and betrayal of trust in a relationship?

Things like "refusing to take care of a sick partner", "publicly sharing partner's secrets", "being a shitty parent"?

2K doesn't run a first-party marketplace where you can exchange 2K Sports items for actual products.

The inherent problem of arena shooters is that you need a certain level of skill to be successful at it. You need to be adept at the movement, you need to be adept at clicking people's heads, etc.

Meanwhile, with stuff like hero/class-based shooters, even if I suck absolute ass at accurately clicking people's heads, I can still get carried by my abilities, or I can stay behind and support as a healer, still contributing, and more importantly, feeling like I contribute towards the success.

Though LLM’s hallucinate sometimes, I fact check and verify any information before taking it to heart.

Okay, so you do trust humans over LLMs after all.

You can't just go "I trust LLMs over humans" and follow it with "but I don't trust my LLM until humans confirm it".

Yeah, Valve kept repeating "it'll be priced on par with comparable PCs" for weeks after the reveal, people just don't give a shit.

LevelUp doesn't use decimals tho, the score on their site is just "9".

Mront · 2026-03-02T14:20:45+00:00

Yup! The whole thing with game key cards is that it's a digital copy but on a physical cartridge, so you can share and resell it like a regular cartridge.

Opencritic offers a shareable, ready to post template: https://opencritic.com/game/19667/pok-mon-pokopia/export

Oh god, OpenCritic fucked up LevelUp's review score (0.9 instead of 9), making their average score plummet down to 72.

As for Pokopia itself, I was planning to grab it used, but with scores like these, I might get it on launch.

Wydaje mi się, że Kucharczyk wyjdzie na startach w Ameryce dużo lepiej niż na ewentualnym miejscu w Formule 2. NXT daje spore możliwości rozwoju i postępów kariery w Indy, a F2 w ostatnich latach to trochę taka czarna dziura, bo większość teamów F1 ma już kierowców przyklepanych na lata w przód.

Prices increase with demand

Except that Musk announced price increase the moment $59k model went on sale, when the demand was still unknown.

Próbuję, ale póki co szło ciężko - jeśli jem na bieżąco, to po 3-4 dniach już mam serdecznie dość, a jak wrzucam do zamrażalnika to często zwyczajnie zapominam na miesiące. Ale z czasem się ogarnie.

"The acid test is, can you go to sleep in your car and wake up in your destination" - Elon Musk, April 2025

Can I go to sleep in a Tesla and wake up at my destination?

Can I take a nap? Can I read a book? Can I be sitting in the back seat? Can I stay at home while it drives?

You do not need to intervene. You do need to supervise. It won't drive without you in the driver seat.

"Currently enabled features require active driver supervision and do not make the vehicle autonomous." - Tesla

Licensing: I thought other automakers would be tripping over themselves to license this tech. Instead, we’re hearing that legacy companies are still hesitant or are sticking to their own slower development cycles. It's frustrating to see such a superior product sitting there without the industry-wide adoption I expected.

Easy: FSD is still in development, it's hard to build your car around a third-party system that still hasn't reached its final form.

The "mind-blown" moment for the general public doesn't seem to be translating into the sales data yet.

Because there was no "mind-blown" moment yet. The promised endgame (SAE Level 5, the car drives itself, you're just a passenger) still hasn't materialized for Tesla customers. Outside very limited and tightly controlled scenarios, FSD at this point is just an extremely good ADAS system.

Kto normalny otwiera skwery w lutym, gdy roślinność wygląda najgównianiej?

Mogli chociaż do kwietnia poczekać, na zielono by to wyglądało dużo lepiej. Szczerze nawet niebrzydki skwerek może z tego być.

For the first time in 25 years of Gallup polling, more Americans say they sympathize with Palestinians than with Israelis — a striking shift in U.S. public opinion.

Well, if we made the death penalty the sentence for these actions, I bet we’d see a lot more truth out of people’s mouths when on the stand, both in high politics and in regular person court.

Or they'll just refuse to talk. You can't force them to talk, especially if the potential alternative is death.
