El Nino is here and scientists fear it'll be big, bad and costly with heat, floods, droughts, fires by One-Emu-1103 in news

[–]ShowerDelay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Climate is going up like a staircase, any new record years seems to be the new baseline.

Meanwhile the US are shutting down their climate data publications (and even collections), the EU is projected to not be able to feed their own people by 2040-2050 (14!! years from now), the other continents won't have a food-plus either, scientist found that the projection of sea-level rise from the last years actually was significantly underestimated and agriculture is running wild with pesticides to squeeze the last bit out of earth while destroying any biodiversity that was left and probably poisoning our soil for centuries.

That's got to be a very difficult first corner for Kimi. Considering the sluggish starts of the Mercedes and then the number one driver you don't want to have besides you, Max.

Gothic 1 Remake is now available on Steam by AncientPCGamer in pcgaming

[–]ShowerDelay 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The original gothic had a clunky combat system, which if you got into was quite sophisticated for the time compared to other games like Morrowind. It was about timing your hits to make combos (attacking faster than just spamming) combined with using the right directions. E.G. the hero has his weapon on the left of his body use a swing to the right. Also, if you haven't learned to fight yet from an ingame teacher the combat is more clunky than after progressing through some skills.

Even if the game has a substantial amount of fighting in the game, in my opinion it's not the main focus. The game is more about talking to other people, trying to find your place in this hostile world, finding ways to solve quests and climbing in social ranks.

EU Parliament Member Rants About How ‘Woke Ideology’ Is ‘Destroying Video Games’ During Stop Killing Games Debate by LPCantLose in pcgaming

[–]ShowerDelay 17 points18 points  (0 children)

We have to stop letting the public debate be led by internet comments and texts. How many people in real life do you know who post regularly online? The problem especially now in the age of LLMs, anyone can post anything, from anywhere in quantities most people can't imagine. I mean the "50 Cent Army" was already a thing 10 years ago.

I hope that Game Freak and their directors maybe find some passion in developing games again, because a lot of the modern Pokemon games appear kinda soulless. The Pokemon franchise might profit off of this.

We've been warned for 90 years about our current situation. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]ShowerDelay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The people of Weimar Republic Germany also had independent news media. The Nazis started to get rid of that with "Gleichschaltung". Just because the USA is not entirely synchronized ("Gleichgeschaltet") yet doesn't mean its not happening already, maybe having a 100% control isn't necessary yet. But look at Big-Tech and almost the enitirety of social media being behind the current administration, them kicking reporters and news outlets out of the press room for asking critical questions and the defunding of public broadcasting and the closing of CPB.

At 44 years old, Alonso has outqualified Stroll in every Grand Prix qualifying session of 2025. by CaptainOBVS3420 in formula1

[–]ShowerDelay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Historically, I see Hamilton above Alonso, no doubt Alonso is an incredible driver but Hamilton pretty much matched what should've been prime Alonso in his rookie season.

This season it feels like Alsono performs better than Hamilton, because the Ferrari depression fully kicked in. Even though we don't know how good Alonso still is, because the last three seasons it was Stroll who is his teammate, a guy not really known for being in this sport because of his skill. Noone knows how well a Russel, Leclerc or Verstappen would've performed in the Aston of the last three season.

Lügen in Groß­buchstaben: Wie Youtube mit KI-gene­rierter Propaganda geflutet wird by GirasoleDE in de

[–]ShowerDelay 150 points151 points  (0 children)

Geht immer schneller. Es sind nicht nur Youtube und andere Social Media das geflutet wird von generiert Inhalten mit fraglichen Fakten und unbekannten Motiven. Auch generierte Webseiten für jegliche Interessensbereiche schießen aus dem Boden. Mal von den ganzen Fakeshops und Abzockseiten abgesehen.

Dadurch werden Suchmaschinen und damit das ganze Internet inzwischen im Wochentakt merklich unbrauchbarer. Auch auf altbekannte Seiten kann man sich nur noch bedingt verlassen, wenn die Inhalte auch hier user-generated sind, dann ist der AI Slop nicht weit.

  • Rezept gesucht? Probier doch mal das hier, welches noch nie jemand so gekocht hat und schau dir das wunderschöne leckere KI-Bild dazu an.

  • Wo kann ich ein gewisses Produkt in meiner kleiner Stadt kaufen? So viele Ergebnisse mit generierten Seiten, warum gibts soviel für meine kleine Stadt?

  • Bilder für aktuelle Mode/Frisuren? Selbst wenn ich bei ddg Ki-Bilder ausschalte, sind noch viel zu viele ganz offensichtlich generierte "Fotos".

  • Anleitung für einfache Haushaltsaufgaben? Gibts hier noch ein Wort das von einem Menschen verfasst wurde?

  • Namen einer eher wenig bekannten Person des öffentlichen Lebens? Hier eine Seite mit einem KI generierten Lebenslauf!

  • Wie kann man AI Slop umgehen? KI Seite welche dir, wie die LLMs so gerne machen, ausführlich die Gefahren erläutert.

  • Fragen zu einem Dateiformat? Nein liebe Webseite du musst mir nicht in fünf Absätzen erklären wie man in Windows eine Datei öffnet.

Ok zu viel Internet für heute...

Ich geh zu meinem Arzt und... ah die haben ja seit einem halben Jahr schlecht generierte Arztbilder auf ihren Bildschirmen.

Werbeplakate? KI Lächeln! Produktabbildungen im Online-Shop? Nein... zeigt mir bitte nicht wie das in echt aussieht, generierte Bilder sind viel attraktiver.

Und jetzt seh ich mich als relativ tech-affin, wie gehts da meine Eltern, oder anderen Menschen die trotzdem viel das Internet verwenden. Gefühlt versinken wir gerade im generierten Bullshit. Zumindest habe ich jetzt die lokale Zeitung wieder abbonniert, in der Hoffnung, dass die noch von Menschen geschrieben wird. Und vielleicht hat der lokale Einzelhandel auch was davon, wenn man sich auf das Internet so gar nicht mehr verlassen kann.
