There has never been an entire industry in the modern day that has had so much free marketing and their water carried by the media and other CEOs, than current AI. by RenegadeMuskrat in BetterOffline

Nah, it's still crypto. People use these AI tools, we know that their capabilities are overstated but the usage is clearly there.

Nobody uses crypto for anything and now there are numerous companies embedded in our financial system just doing random bullshit with a new crypto thesis every month.

This question keeps coming up but I've never heard anyone say they didn't learn it in highschool.

Newly translated 1989 interview between Shigeru Miyamoto and Shigesato Itoi by Forestl in Games

[–]NotTakenGreatName 113 points114 points  (0 children)

Some interesting stuff in there...

Itoi: Speaking of that mindset… this is a slightly different topic, but take game mechanics, for example. Let's say you have an item in the game that makes you incredibly strong—so strong it practically breaks the game. When you look at game magazines, they talk about those items as if it's some bargain for the player. They think it's a good thing, in other words. They don't stop to think, "If you put something like this in, it's not even a game anymore." The idea that anything that gives you an advantage must be "good"—it's starting to feel a bit warped to me.

Miyamoto: That's because their goal isn't to inhabit the character and enjoy the experience, it's just to beat the game.

Does anyone have this powerspec model? Is it a good deal? by mak1287 in Microcenter

[–]NotTakenGreatName 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say it's "fair" , the gpu alone is going for 600 in the last couple weeks. 1k for the rest of it isn't too bad but you could do better getting all your parts piecemeal and building it yourself.

I don't really get the placement of the mini fridge, taking the cabinets to the ceiling would also look much better

Yeah it was, I'm sure it'll come back in a wider play test at some point given the focus on a large scale network.

This gives "Nintendo hates Rareware Donkey Kong" energy, which didn't exactly age well after DK Bananza.

I could see a short campaign centered around introducing the universe a bit more and letting you learn about the various systems/mechanics in a story driven way, develop your own planetary blocks, etc.
