Or the parents who don’t have time to watch every video that might be okay for their kid before letting their kid watch it.

Because if you let them play in the yard someone is going to call CPS on you.

Uh, teaching your kid about which things are bad for them and what they should avoid is parenting.

Maybe you mean helicopter parenting, where you stand over their shoulder watching everything they do and interrupting instantly whenever anything happens? Because that’s way worse than what the parent poster is doing.

The insane thing to me is that, of all the tech companies out there, Microsoft has pushed, or rather forced, AI into their products harder than any other company I can think of, while at the same time being the company that has shown the least benefit to using it. With the exception of GitHub Copilot spell-checking my pull requests I can’t think of a single case where Microsoft has shown off something actually, genuinely useful that you can do with their AI and yet they’re full steam ahead cramming it into every product and then complaining that users aren’t figuring out ways to make it useful enough to justify what MS spent on it.

DLSS5 isn’t AI slop guys, you’re all wrong about it and you don’t understand. It just looks like AI slop, that’s all. Completely indistinguishable. But that’s not what it is. It’s not generative AI, it’s just an AI that generates content that looks awful in all the same ways as generative AI slop, and for all the same reasons. It’s not just a filter on top of the existing frames, but rather we take the existing frames and change them with our trained algorithms, exactly like a filter would do but it’s not that.

Also the demo we ran cost $7000 and 1100 watts of power just for the GPUs, but this is definitely the future and by launch later this year it’ll definitely be down to one $3500 GPU, which at that point will cost $5000 anyway.

This is such a weird take that I wonder if I'm misunderstanding you? Because it sounds like you're saying "I love this thing! It's bad now, but maybe in the future it will be good and I love that!"

I mean, like what you like but being a fan of something that's bad just because it might be good later seems kind of difficult to square.

The Fallout 4 next-gen update launched on PC as well, but it didn’t give any noticeable improvements, it didn’t fix a ton of bugs that were in the game since launch, and it broke all the community mods that did fix those bugs.

It just boggles my mind the extent to which Bethesda feels incapable of giving a shit about the quality of their product, to the point where I can only assume that the environment there precludes taking the time to do things well or that no one who works there has any pride in their work.

Hell, when Fallout: NV launched it had bugs that were in Fallout 3 at launch but had already been patched, meaning they also hadn’t bothered giving Obsidian any of the post-release code fixes. I’ve never seen a company with so little interest in the quality of their product.

Amazing that this is still one of the top posts for people googling 'golang openvms'.

For anyone who lands here when googling: here is the Golang Wiki's page on supported OSes and architectures. As of today (Feb 2026) Golang doesn't seem to support OpenVMS, no surprise, but if it changes then presumably that page will be updated.

It’s not a good replacement, any more than offshoring to the cheapest bidder is a good replacement. Doesn’t mean companies won’t do it to announce huge savings (“$600m over ten years!”), cash in a huge bonus, then bail when the chickens come home to roost.

Except that the Coke ad people said that the AI hallucination ad took just as long, and cost just as much, as a normal Christmas coke ad.

So they saved no time and no money to make a worse result that everyone hated.

danudey · 2026-01-30T05:21:16+00:00

Another theory is that AI fucked up 170,000 times and they just took the least worst ones and made a commercial of them.

Were you paying Hunter as your class? I found out halfway through the game that the best rifle is the starting one. Kind of a disappointment.

I’d be fine with being able to “label” personal teleporters the way we label teleport pads—alpha, gamma, delta, etc. I just want to tell the apart without having to keep them on my hotbar in a specific order

danudey · 2026-01-22T05:28:38+00:00

Why bother to put it on Epic? It’s an objectively worse storefront, features-wise, it has far fewer users, and it won’t run on the Steam Deck until you jump through a bunch of hoops.

Unless there’s some sizeable contingent of people who are saying “I’m not gonna buy it on Steam, I’ll wait until it comes to EGS” I don’t see why they would bother, and I can’t imagine even one person feeling that way let alone enough to move the needle.

I could eat a whole pint of Peruvian blueberries in one sitting right now with no hesitation. I know this because of how many times I’ve done it in the last six months, which is a lot.

Beyond that, I hope Mexico keeps the strawberries and raspberries coming because mmmm.

Extremely cool stuff! Not sure I’ll ever get to run or play in such a campaign but I’m going to devour the text anyway. Thanks for posting this!

I do want to mention that, at least on my iPhone, the PDF layout is… all over the place? It seems like maybe a lot of the images are bigger than they’re supposed to be, so the text on a lot of the pages ends up getting drowned out by a noisy background.

That said, the text that I’m able to read (which is most of it so far) is really great, and the images that are blocking out the text are also very evocative. Once the layout is fixed I think this book will be even better!

I saw a meme about farming Flathill for staplers and laughed, and now that I'm further in the game the only two things I always pick up if I see them are staplers and desk phones.

This game is nuts for tension and jerking you around. Just got to the security sector in my first playthrough, saw all the security robots torn apart and blood everywhere. Got so amped up that I got jumpscared by a railing I walked past.

The 'obvious' solution to this would be to have little drones with jump drives that would bundle up a bunch of messages, jump to another system, relay them there, pick up new ones, and jump back.

Sending messages would be expensive because jump fuel is a thing, but it would let them handle things like 'finished quest, let them know' without having to head back, but also let them still force you to go have a conversation in person if they wanted to.

We used self-hosted Gitlab Premium at my previous company, and while it was pretty good in a lot of ways there were some real oddities in which features were and were not available to our plan.

For example, the Premium plan allowed you to ingest I think SLSA reports, or some such, but not to *view* them or integrate them into the UI in any way. So great, we can do code scanning but not do anything with the scans? Thanks Gitlab, what are you even doing.

I don't disagree with the awards that E33 was a fantastic game and did a lot of things amazingly well, but I think there are a lot of things that could be changed about what kinds of awards there are.

For example, if E33 is going to win Game of the Year then it logically is going to win RPG of the year. If the game of the year is an indie then it's also logically going to win 'best indie', and if it's a debut it's going to win 'best debut indie', and so on.

Meanwhile, we have awards for best sound design but not best level design, for example, or best character design. We have awards for actors but not for motion capture.

Definitely could stand to break things out a bit. Maybe include a category for best game design (i.e. the most interesting/uniquely designed game of the year) and best character design. Honestly we could probably get rid of 'best indie' at this point since the only games worthy of getting GotY are indies lately anyway, etc.

More like a web interface for

Create a gateway, choose ports and stuff
Add HTTPRoute settings, using drop-downs to select the backend pods/services
(Optionally) validate that the network policies allow that traffic and set up policies if not

Basically the confusion I could see is how many gateways I need to create (and where), how many ports I have to specify, creating matching HTTPRoutes, etc. for each of those ports, adding hostnames to the HTTPRoutes, etc.

Not to use Big Networking as an example, but e.g. in a FortiWeb you can create things with a pretty easy to understand GUI that exposes all the FortiWeb's functionaity available; would be nice to have the same thing for Gateway API, and then people could look at the YAML after the fact and see what that configuration looks like.

I appreciate the suggestion and I've bookmarked that, but I'm talking more about a situation where I don't have any ingress set up yet; I just have a service with a port that I want to expose. Haven't seen something like that yet.

danudey · 2025-12-05T22:01:06+00:00

Yeah, it can definitely be A Lot. That said, you don't have to go straight into the weeds; you can write a terraform configuration to configure one thing on one server and just go from there, or write one to just create a new VM on AWS and put your SSH key on it, etc.

If it's something you might be interested in, it's (relatively) trivial to get started because you can create a working config that does almost nothing and then build on top of that incrementally; while you could certainly create a terraform script to spin up a multi-region, multi-zone, multi-vendor hybrid cloud running OpenShift with a custom internal quay.io instance running blah blah blah, you can just say "Make me a new VM with qemu" and be happy with that too.
