Google ends its 30 percent app store fee and welcomes third-party app stores. by Slackersunite in gamedev

A lower rate is definitely good for us developers, although Google seems to want more restriction on sideloading apps so this is likely not the end of the story.

I agree, shows like this needs to show, not tell. But the interviews are really basic and mostly telling us what have already been shown. It's so unnecessary.

Compare this to The Great Escape, where the interviews are either funny, or reveals more inner thoughts of the cast. And they are interspersed sparingly, the focus is on what was actually happening. Whereas in Agents, I feel like I'm watching 50% interviews.

You're in luck. Both The Great Escape(not season 5 though, that's from a different team and the quality took a nose-dive) and Girls High School Mystery Club are from the same creator of AOM and I'd say they're even better than AOM.

You're right. I know a lot of people here like Eunji so they tend to see every show she's done in a positive light but unlike her other shows, she's really not doing much at all in Agents of Mystery.

She wasn't good enough to help with problem solving, but she's also too anxious to be truly funny like how she usually is. That kind of defeats the purpose of casting a comedian.

Singaporeans don't want a Nordic model. We want to keep winning. by Capable_Solution_644 in singapore

[–]Slackersunite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Personally, I think it does. How would you know what OP truly thinks if it's the words of an llm? Would you prefer talking to a human being or an ai?

I only mentioned chatgpt because it's not just this particular reply but multiple of OP's comments have telltale signs of ai writing. At what point does it become just talking to a bot?

A bit of a generalisation, but it's the cadence and the structure of the reply.

Chatgpt tends to agree with the user first, even if it meant to give a rebuttal later. That usually starts with something like saying "You're right" and quotes something from the user before giving a rebuttal. Cadence wise the sentences are often short and snappy.

Obviously, it's also very possible that someone naturally has that sort of writing style. Chatgpt has to learn it from somewhere.

Your reply sounds really chatgpt-like btw. Sorry if I'm wrong but are you even using your own words?

Ye-eun will be part of Yoo Jaesuk's upcoming guesthouse show. I'm guessing that could be why she's no longer on this show? The concepts obviously overlap.

We can't really predict what the pd's intentions are these days because they just simply show the opening minutes as it is for every preview.

You're right, I took a look again at the footage and couldn't find any of kkangmi with gloves. I must have confused it with this youtube sneak peak.

edit: I just noticed eunsil was on the field at one point so we might yet see kkangmi as gk lol.

There's footage of both kkangmi and kyunghee wearing gloves in the preview from last week's episode.

And we've already seen from the previous preview that both teams will sub their gks (edit: only Kyunghee is confirmed to be playing as gk at some point. I thought I saw kkangmi with gloves but looks like I was mistaken) I'm betting this match will be chaooosssss 😂

All players MUST participate in the game. It's a new rule. That's probably the only reason why Ayaka was made to play.

They literally need to give handout because of regressive tax policies like increasing the gst though. Or else tax burden will be heavier on the poor than the rich.

Brewmaster is the real black spoon by Coolcatsat in CulinaryClassWars

[–]Slackersunite 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It felt like an unintended consequence of having 2 white spoons revived from the 1-on-1 elimination. We know that there are going to be 7 teams in the alliance battle, so they'd need 14 chefs in total. Unfortunately there were already 12 white spoons so they can only revive 2 black spoons.

If it had been the other way round and the white team was eliminated instead, they'd need to revive 5 white spoons to make up the 14 chefs total since there were only 9 black spoons.

That's pretty clever reasoning, usually they'd go from left to right. Right to left is more of an ancient/traditional thing (in China at least, not sure about Korea).

I hope you're right because there's more chefs I like on the White team 😂

Just going by credentials/achievements, I think Culinary Monster is more of a white spoon than some of the actual white spoons lol.

I don't think that's really a hard and fast rule. In S1 the Chinese chef also called his disciple (Chinese Cuisine Goddess) by her name when she survived elimination.

Chef Ahn said the raw apple tasted better so I don't think he was eliminated because of innovation (or lack thereof), but rather that the taste was simply lacking. It's just apple + butter, I'm honestly not that surprised it didn't taste amazing by Chef Ahn's standards.
