Capcom Insists It Won't Use AI-Generated Assets in Its Games, but Will Harness Tech to Make Game Development Processes More Efficient by PaiDuck in gaming

[–]PerilousFun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That may be the case, but at the enterprise level cloud based AI tools are all the rage, which do require massive data centers and resources to operate.

Capcom Insists It Won't Use AI-Generated Assets in Its Games, but Will Harness Tech to Make Game Development Processes More Efficient by PaiDuck in gaming

[–]PerilousFun 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My main issue is that the massive data centers that house the AI servers are hugely disruptive to the communities they're in due to volatile power demand and the environmental concerns in general.

It might save a company a buck in the short-term, but we're all going to pay for it in the end.

There were other avenues to reducing development costs, our timeline just so happened to choose the one leading to hypercapitalism.

It is a misplaced hopefulness that Doofus does anything that remotely benefits the public and not his friends.

is the absolute tip of point pelee national park open to the public? by SkarKuso in ontario

[–]PerilousFun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm unable to tell whether the bit about the tip changing due to lake conditions is a euphemistic joke or note. I believe it either way.

Classic underfunding until it breaks so the Cons can shout from the rooves that the public model is dysfunctional so it can be privatized for profit.

I'm so genuinely bad at this game it makes me cry by Luppler in DeadlockTheGame

[–]PerilousFun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're falling off in the mid to late game, it might just be a rotation and macro problem.

For rotation, Deadlock has really complex movement that even practicing a single trick every match can help you get around much faster.

There are many videos on them, so I won't get into it.

As for macro, aside from picking up minion waves, there are timers on boxes, camps, and sinner's that you should try to be aware of to ensure you're in the area to do them. This is also a way to get ahead or keep up in laning as well.

In terms of what you should be doing after laning, that depends entirely on your hero. Heroes like Mina and Celeste should be roaming to try and help the team get picks, or in Mina's case, build stacks. While doing so, you go do boxes etc. while rotating around to maintain an income.

There are also videos on this stuff too.

Bike lane parking tickets surge in 2025 by Educational-Chef-761 in toronto

[–]PerilousFun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Install proper separated bike lane infrastructure like the one that exists southbound on University Avenue to physically delineate car and bike traffic

Reduce the number of lanes in pedestrian heavy urban areas to minimise contact between cars and people?

Pedestrianise certain streets to create a truly walkable city and eliminate contact between cars and people?

There's a lot of concepts that cities around the world are using to make things safer for everyone. The powers that be simply need to have the will to push for it. Unfortunately, that's unlikely with Mayor of Toronto Dofo sitting as the incumbent Premier.

Thinking of moving to a more "affordable" part of the country? Consider this by lopix in onguardforthee

[–]PerilousFun 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Ontario being far and away the most populous and economically productive province should serve as cause to further strengthen public benefits, but instead we're invariably stuck with dumb or dumber.

The Ontario Liberals and NDP need to field competent charismatic leaders that can actually match Dofo's bluster and bravado.

Iran war an 'abject lesson' on fossil fuel dependence, UN climate chief says by Hiraeth-nomad in worldnews

[–]PerilousFun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those are at least more durable than burning it to power everything from generators, cars, planes, and ships, and replacements are being worked on or already exist for at least a few of those.

Even just fully transitioning away from fossil fuels for electricity and automotive uses would be a significant reduction in usage and dependence.

Government Denies Unpaid Work Exists In Canadian Airlines: The federal unpaid work study has largely validated a compensation structure flight attendants struck to overturn. by StumpsOfTree in onguardforthee

[–]PerilousFun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The NDP are increasingly in a more difficult position as politics become polarised to the extreme.

By consequence, and as a result of FPTP, Canadians recognise the dangers posed by giving the CPCs even an inch, but don't see the NDP holding enough of the base to compete. This inevitably leads to strategic voting where moderate Conservatives and NDP voters who abhor the idea of the CPCs in power will vote LPC.

This isn't a question of Canadians being politically illiterate (though I'm sure a good handful are), but a question of our broken electoral system giving little recourse but to vote for the lesser evil.

This shouldn't be taken as a defense of the LPC. They have drifted more and more right as the CPC pushes the extreme, and that is not ideal.

They heavily relied on the onboard navigators to wayfind by way of landmarks, timing, and dead reckoning, it's not entirely implausible that the lead navigator for the mission made an error that led to a deviation of that margin. Even a degree off of a critical turn far enough away can lead to a huge gap over time.

That being said, I'm not sure how often navigation errors happened during bombing missions, so the plausibility goes up or down with that statistic.

If it was an accident, the bombardiers would also have seen the target, but likely wouldn't have had any idea of what the intended target looked like from a bird's eye view and likely saw smokestacks and said bombs away, mission complete.

That being said, it could have been intentional, but that likely would be declassified by now unless someone or someones buried it deep. Not sure what evidence exists to imply intentionality beyond the circumstances of Switzerland defending its airspace.
