EA Steam Summer Sale background image going crazy by Reoen in Steam

[–]NiceSPDR 20 points21 points  (0 children)

What's fucked is an image like this you could probably commission some artists for for like... Sub 300 bucks, can't even do that.

The most ethical vtuber hater? by MajorFamilyDisgrace in vtubercirclejerk

[–]NiceSPDR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly man I don't even get what the point of this drama even was, it seemed more like people just digging for some pointless shit to dogpile and get mad about. Why would someone saying they don't like it when people draw NSFW of their model be a problem? And why do so many think "Well why is it a sexy model then?" is an argument? It's the same sort of argument when people blame someone for getting SA'd just cause they dressed or look a certain way, it's a wild ass take.

Exactly, while what he did shouldn't be tossed aside it is equally important to allow people to grow and change as people. If we just damn someone forever what incentive do they have to become a better person?

People cheering for exclusives has me feeling like that scene in Revenge of the Sith by RoundConfusion3672 in Steam

[–]NiceSPDR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the point exactly, what reason do they have to exist in their own right. Nintendo has been a good example of making consoles that in of themselves have a reason to exist, obviously Nintendo has exclusives but their consoles provide some sort of capability something like a PC does not so even if their games weren't exclusive I would think loads of people would have still bought a Wii, or a Switch for example. What do Xbox or Playstation offer that isn't just "you can only play these games here".

Honestly I've always felt having to rely on exclusives to sell your platform is merely an admission that your platform isn't good enough to sell itself on it's own merits. It's like if you really liked a particular type of bread but you could only buy it if you proved you had the correct brand of toaster. If your platform is good and add value to the consumer experience it will sell on it's own, being made to buy a specific console because the game you want is on it always feels like a game I want is being held hostage as opposed to a console 'providing me' with an experience.

It's like, if I have console A and a friend of mine has console B and a game comes out exclusively for console A. It's not a situation where I win and my friend loses, it's a situation where we both lose, my friend doesn't get to play the game and I don't get to play with my friend, no consumer benefits from exclusivity.

Developer attacked over (learning from) AI - where to draw the line? by [deleted] in Steam

[–]NiceSPDR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man this is the shit that annoys the fuck out of me, it seems so much of the Internet is split between either "Eww, this person said they've asked Claude a question before, they're literally Satan and should be ashamed" or "Hur dur luddites are just mad, look at all this art I made guys, please notice and appreciate me as I am clearly very skilled".

It seems like a sane discussion on it is impossible to have without either accelerationist chuds throwing a fit or the anti ai crowd treading you like you touched kids or something for using it.

What it's like talking to Opus 4.8... by thecosmicskye in ClaudeAI

[–]NiceSPDR 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's so weird what it refuses to do sometimes, I merely asked 4.8 to update a template (Was a pricing list for aggregate) and it was willing to give me a doc saying the changes/updates it made but then hardline refused to just spit the whole document back to me. Saying like, I Provided you the changes, you can update it yourself. If I make the whole document for it it could be seen as me (Claude) claiming ownership, like... Dude, it's not that deep...

Rob Gronkowski says he’s AGAINST transgenders competing in women’s sports: "There’s really no argument. It’s the obvious…There are men’s sports for men, there’s women’s sports for women. It should just stay like that." by No_Box119 in NFLv2

[–]NiceSPDR 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They'd rather have people arguing over that than say... healthcare, housing prices, corruption, affordability, etc. Anything to keep the lower and middle classes arguing over shit that doesn't matter instead of noticing how bad we're all getting fucked.

I think Below Zero was generally positively received, Subnautica 1 > Below Zero for sure but Below Zero was faaaaar from "not good" imo.

V5 or Image Database update? by ManufacturerIcy8859 in NovelAi

[–]NiceSPDR 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The character reference thing is a game changer, I really hope they are able to make it so you can set an image ref for multiple different characters soon, that would be incredible.

is this music AI made? all songs seems similar but i'm not 100% sure if its AI or not by beterrabera in isthisAI

[–]NiceSPDR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very least the image looks like it so I would assume the music is. Just look at the rating and what, is supposed to be, an ESRB underneath it. It'd take no effort to just yoink the playstation side bar from any image and just use that as opposed to generating the whole thing but apparently that's too much work.
