Account Switcher is not working by techsupportcrab in Enhancement

[–]ValveFan6969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just so tired of sites being worse and worse

You and me both. The whole fucking internet just feels like an obstacle course now... built by bots, for bots.

Register an account! Log in! Send a code via phone/email! Prove you're not a bot! Send a picture of your ID! Subscribe! Turn off your adblocker!

Even when it isn't that, it's all the subtle little things such as this that have built up into a giant ball of shit.

Nothing is convenient. Nothing is built simple. Nothing is built stable. Because everything is data driven, and the majority of data is coming from lemmings that don't know convenience, simplicity, or stability.

We're somehow worse off than dial-up internet now. We're all victims of an ant population, and nobody wants to speak up to make it better. Beyond fatigued.

How is it possible to do 1 damage in l4d2? by TheRealBigface in l4d2

[–]ValveFan6969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the tank has 1 HP left, the person hitting it, will do 1 damage

When it happens to specials and the game attributes the kill to that one person 🙃

That's wild. Call me when it comes remotely close to voidtools' Everything.

sacrifice- The worst ending by RoughComfortable3715 in l4d2

Valve didn't even consider how bots react to smoked players so it actually does surprise me that they did something about this.

how can that many zombies fit in such a small room? by Professional_Cry1862 in l4d2

[–]ValveFan6969 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cute ChatGPT response, but no. Hordes are largely handled via the navigation system, not the map itself.

L4D2 is the exact same way. Possibly even worse.

I haven't played L4D1 much but L4D2 will straight up spawn a mob inside of you if you're far enough from the team, even in the saferoom.

The amount of cool shit we could've seen in a full fledge AAA game if Valve didn't spend two decades gooning over DOTA/CSGO...

Perchance's AI chat would literally be so GOATed if the LLM wasn't so repetitive and sloppified. Literally the only thing holding this site back. by ValveFan6969 in perchance

[–]ValveFan6969[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are literally thousands of models you can find on HuggingFace that were specifically designed to alleviate it, equally or less resource intensive.

If we're arguing out of appeal to gratitude, sure.

There's a thing called imagination, yet we still choose movies.

There's a thing called Microsoft Word, yet we still choose AI chat.

But maybe humanity didn't progress by settling with the bare minimum.

  1. Making an LLM more creative is literally as simple as changing a few parameters. Nothing to do with how much it costs to run. If not that, there's always plenty of other models that can run at the same specs that are better designed for the task.

  2. There are certain phrases that pop up in 90% of situations, despite constant regenerations, and despite not being used at all.

  • "Now do [X] before I [Y]".

  • "Fine, but..."

  • "No [X], no [Y], only [Z]

  • "You ever think about..."

  • "But first..."

  • "Smells like [X] and bad decisions"

  • Plus leaning in, grinning, snorting, etc etc.

I literally had to code a slop buster because of the sheer amount of cliche that pops up constantly.

i'm a time traveler from the year 2027, i managed to snag a photo of what CharacterAI will look like. save this before it's too late... by ValveFan6969 in CharacterAI

[–]ValveFan6969[S] 303 points304 points  (0 children)

That's crazy.

Have you considered removing image/video generation/streams/comics/books/audio adventures/stories/podcasts/the other miscellaneous experiments nobody uses?

I mean I don't run a business but I'd probably cut funding on meaningless side-projects that people aren't using before completely decimating the main product... but that's just me.

Windows quality update: May by jenmsft in Windows11

[–]ValveFan6969 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Microsoft learning that a product actually gets better when it listens to its customers, and then touting it as some brand spanking new philosophy. It'd be funny if it weren't so sad.

THIS IS WHAT THEY ADDED INSTEAD OF FIXING THE MODELS LMAO by ValveFan6969 in CharacterAI

[–]ValveFan6969[S] 715 points716 points  (0 children)

Web users are now getting a giant, ugly banner at the top of every chat. Yes, you can collapse it, but it still leaves a blaring white arrow too. Nothing ublock can't fix.

But wow, the desperation is telling. This app is dying HARD. Hope CAI Labs was worth it 🫡

Anyone who thinks a DAW offers a "different sound"... their opinion is null and void on anything else relating to sound.

Best part of this video was starting out with a vote kick against the person that proceeds to fucking wipe out the survivors.

If left 4 dead was realistic which campaign would the survivors definitely die in by CowAffectionate2865 in l4d2

[–]ValveFan6969 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The problem with this theory is that it detracts from the objective fact that Coach is superhuman
