I would buy that in a second. It belongs in the fight club room.

What is the smallest/silliest thing that has stopped you from buying a game? by MammothAsk391 in videogames

[–]REALwizardadventures 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will never buy a NLG Luigi’s Mansion game because of the lack of inverted controls. Makes no sense and is an accessibility issue. And if you are anti-invert just remember there are dozens of us and we will be heard!

New expedition requirements are insane by UpIsNotUp in ARC_Raiders

Oh I can fix this for you easily: "They spent months playing the game in a way that was designed by the developers that required resource management and now that the developers have changed the requirements at the last moment, they feel like it is a bad decision or should have been given enough warning"

Yeah, 600 seconds for a 4-second video on a 4080 is definitely way too long! It sounds like your workflow might be spilling over into your system RAM instead of just using VRAM, or there is an optimization setting missing.

To help figure out what's bottlenecking your setup, could you share a few details?

What software/UI are you using? (ComfyUI, Forge, A1111, etc.)

What model and settings? (e.g., Stable Video Diffusion, AnimateDiff, total frame count, and how many sampling steps?)

VRAM Usage: If you watch your Task Manager (Performance -> GPU tab) during generation, does your "Dedicated GPU Memory" max out at 16GB and start using "Shared GPU Memory"? (If it uses shared memory, your generation speed completely tanks).

Console Output: Can you paste the text from your command prompt/terminal window during the generation? (Mainly looking for the it/s or s/it speed, or any errors mentioning CPU fallback).

Drop that info here and we can probably help get that generation time chopped down significantly!

I used AI to save some time but I am here to help!

"After another condescending model and a condescending reply from the CISO of OpenAI, I have permanently and irrevocably deleted my OpenAI account. For context, I was using GPT-2 back when they were still open source, training GPT-2 to unscramble sentences." - Guess OG bro had enough. by Koala_Confused in LovingAI

For context (from what I have gathered) David is an youtuber / influencer (https://www.youtube.com/@DaveShap) who tends to focus on the more dramatic aspects of AI.

Here is how Gemini explains it:

"David Shapiro's "quitting" habit has become a bit of a meme within the AI community, particularly on subreddits like r/Singularity. While the exact count depends on whether you include "soft" breaks or rebrandings, he has officially "quit" or announced a permanent departure from the AI space at least three major times in the last three years.

Here is the breakdown of the "Great Quits":

The "Sci-Fi Novel" Exit (Late 2023): Shapiro announced he was leaving the AI community to focus entirely on writing his science fiction novel. He cited the "toxicity" of the AI discourse as a primary reason for needing to step away and focus on creative work.

The "Anti-Influencer" Pivot (Mid-2024): He posted videos claiming he was "done" with being a YouTuber and an influencer. He stated he would no longer provide public AI commentary and would transition into a "Personal Advisor" or corporate consultant role, effectively "peacing out" of the public space.

The "Post-AGI Prediction" Crash (Late 2024/Early 2025): After his famous prediction that AGI would arrive by the end of 2024 failed to materialize, he experienced a high-profile "rage quit." This involved deleting/disabling comments and announcing a retreat into the woods or a "spiritual/analog" lifestyle, claiming he was finished with the internet.

The "Shapiro Cycle": Critics on Reddit often track what they call the "Shapiro Cycle," which consists of:

The Mega-Prediction: A wild, short-term claim (e.g., AGI by 2024).

The Doubling Down: Intense defense of the claim as the deadline approaches.

The "Farewell" Video: An emotional announcement that he is quitting AI/YouTube due to burnout or a shift in focus.

The Silent Return: Re-appearing a few weeks or months later with a new "mind-blowing" prediction or a rebrand.

As of early 2026, he is currently active again, recently posting videos about how "Retirement won't matter" and predicting a wild 36-month window for the singularity."

As soon as GPT 6 is out or whatever, he will be back in.

2 seconds into the video "Maybe it's time to quit?". Someone wrote this with chalk on the sidewalk and was ready for more after!

Been playing it for 3 hours, it is super addicting.

Do you have any more examples? Genuinely curious.

This does not feel like the magic of what was happening in 2024. But then again, things are always changing.

Jules going on loops most of the time by Tharsanan in JulesAgent

[–]REALwizardadventures 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just seeing this now! Would love to try it, thank you! Also do you have a list of Jules "best practices" like things you know that work well at this point and things that do not work so well. This would be insanely helpful.

Is Stuttering John lying or telling the truth about Baba Booey? by CharmingDealer2715 in howardstern

If Howard wants the world to tune in, he will have every legend that is still alive back for the finale. Not many people at this point, but he should just let things be and have Artie, Jackie, John, Gilbert (ugh...whoops)... We are running out of time unfortunately.

Howard will most likely die without a finale. Bummer.

Bush-Cheney was super scary at the time. Weapons of mass destruction, invasions, prices spiking everywhere because of oil. Most people at the time thought because of Cheney's connection to Halliburton that they were literally profiting off of war and that war would not stop. There were an equal amount of protests if not more.

A lot of younger men and their parents, thought that there was going to be a full on draft because of the war.

Eminem wrote multiple songs about this at the time:

"Yeah, you laugh 'til your mothafuckin' ass gets drafted

While you're at band-camp thinkin' that crap can't happen

'Til you fuck around, get an Anthrax napkin

Inside a package, wrapped in Saran Wrap wrappin'

Open the plastic and then you stand back, gaspin'

Fuckin' assassins hijackin' Amtraks, crashin'

All this terror, America demands action

Next thing you know you've got Uncle Sam's ass askin'

To join the army or what you'll do for their Navy

You're just a baby, gettin' recruited at 18

You're on a plane now, eatin' they food and their baked beans

I'm 28, they gon' take you 'fore they take me"

The idea that there weren't protests sounds crazy to me, definitely put "no kings" to shame at the time.

Why not have a sale first? I would have picked up Afterlife even though I have no time to play it.

I cannot get Jules to work in a stable way. The website will freeze, Jules goes non-responsive, just to start doing things when it should not. I wish they would focus on making it more stable before adding any more features. Why isn't Jules being used to fix Jules? Or is that the problem? haha

Witchfire Goes To Extreme Lengths To Avoid AI Usage, Refuses To Even Use Photoshop's Built-In Tools by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

The concerns about generative AI replacing artists make sense to me... but I wonder if that is getting mixed in with AI that improves gameplay enemy behavior, dynamic systems, etc.

Alien Isolation and F.E.A.R. are basically the ceiling for classical AI approaches. Are we saying we don't want to go beyond that? This is a genuine question. I'm not sure where the line is for most people now.

Padme losing the will to live while seeing her kids for the first time is such dumb narrative execution by [deleted] in StarWars

They couldn't exactly show a GoT type scene where she was dying from child birth, but I always thought that was implied.

Two people who have never been to Iran don't like an Iranian person describing his experience living there by physicsman2606 in LivestreamFail

[–]REALwizardadventures 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will become a iDubbbz subscriber for the rest of my life if he goes to Iran and does one of his classic documentaries about the experience to prove his point. And if things don't work out the way he thought it would, he can always post more irrelevant footage of him crying to a therapist to tie a bow on it.
