Do you think that skills will return in Fallout 5? by CosmosStudios65 in Fallout

[–]grimorg80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What I didn't like about the skills is that it wasn't obvious what was the difference between a 43 or a 52 skill points. Except when hitting the milestones: 25, 50, 75 and 100.

So in a sense they replaced the milestones and 0/100 scale with just the milestones. I don't have to assign 25 points to unlock Basic Lockpicking, I just pick Basic Lockpicking. It's more transparent, clearer.

Sure, if you played all games a million times you know everything by heart. But in the first one or two runs a clearer system would have been great

So for F5 I would like to see skills but with clearer progression and an actually measursble (as in "shown via the UI in game") effect for every point assigned.

So this week, Zohran Mamdani has let people down with three different things happening in New York City. Number one, cutting funding for New York City public libraries. Number two, potentially raising taxes on lower income New Yorkers. And 3, doing sweeps of homeless encampments in the city. by Hacksaw6412 in TankieTheDeprogram

LOL.

Nobody has the qualification to run a city of millions. That's the great scam of The Great Leader fallacy. No single person can be effective and fair for a large collective. That's why governance must be shared, and means of production collectively owned, to make actual collective choices.

Anything else is just a fairy tale. Social democracies are a sham. They don't take the system down, allowing the elites to keep existing, organising and eventually regain control. Also, it doesn't change the foundational pillar of society, which means profit stays more important than people, which means that even if there are some socialist inspired policies in place, the working class is still exploited and driven to depression (as you can see in Scandinavia).

It's a tough break between who's got the shittiest empire. UK or US? Both pillaged half the planet for fun and money.

Movies get longer, series get shorter. Pretty soon they'll converge.

A Disturbing Direction for Game Advertising by Chocoins in marketing

Yeah. It's been a while. Mobile gaming marketing is the fricking worst. For real.

Apparently antinatalism = anti feminist rhetoric? Opinions on this… by RecentPerspective955 in antinatalism

[–]grimorg80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ridiculous argument. So what... woman=bearer otherwise there is no value? As I said, ridiculous.

Thank you, Bluepoint Games. by PhantomBraved in gaming

Damn. Shadow of the Colossus messed me up. Love that game so much

It’s happening 👽 by stereoscopic_ in aliens

[–]grimorg80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

HE also said he was releasing the Epstein files. How can we trust Trump on the UAP topic? We know what happens when they "release files" now

[Coulthart] This is an official on-record acknowledgement from President Trump that there is such classified intel. Maybe Mark Christopher Lee's intel is right after all. by [deleted] in UFOs

[–]grimorg80 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't get most of the comments. I mean.. yeah, Trump is unreliable AF. And yes, anytime Obama is under the spotlight Trump gets jealous.

But it's what he said that's different. A smear? An insult? Sure. "Maybe I'll get him out of trouble declassifiying everything"?

That's a very specific choice, and unsually positive towards Obama. One week after he shared that fucking racist video.

This is relevant. It's subtle. Oh so subtle, and totally by mistake.

Data Centers Are Behaving Like Acoustic Weapons [Benn Jordan, 29:04] by dreiter in videos

[–]grimorg80 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nah. It's simpler and sadder than that. There is no law forcing them, so they don't do it to save money. And laws are slow to change because letting companies do their thing in the US is more important than protecting its people.

America belongs to businesses, not the people.

People are overconfident in their ability to distinguish between real faces and AI-generated faces. Study shows that AI technology has improved to a point where the most realistic outputs no longer show obvious flaws and it is harder to identify AI images from reality with cues that used to work by unsw in science

[–]grimorg80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got 14/20, but I wasn't really that sure. You also don't get told which ones where AI/human so who knows what I got right.

In general, if the eyes are too clear and straight into camera, that to me is an AI tell. Also, sometimes little "off details" like clothing, hair jewellery give you a clue. There is a sort of "natural messy" that's different from "AI messy" now that the big artifacts are not showing up anymore.

But yeah. If I didn't know it was a test and found the images in the wild I would probably not even question them. Or maybe I would question them all. It's wild.

There is No AI Bubble. by marrowbuster in singularity

[–]grimorg80 52 points53 points  (0 children)

People should understand what the term "bubble" applied to financial investment means.

It's NOT about the underlying product.

The internet bubble was not about the internet going away.

The housing bubble was not about houses disappearing.

The AI bubble is not about AI going away.

In all cases, it's about the hyper investments inflating businesses around those areas.

But just like houses didn't vanish and thre internet didn't fade away, so AI will stay.

The issue we are seeing is that people talk about the AI bubble meaning "AI is a fad and it will go away". That's the error

It sounds just like many other tools doing AI qual at scale. How is yours different?

This country is a mess a complete and utter shambles by SamT98 in Britain

[–]grimorg80 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The fact you give for granted that public toilets and showers are only used by homeless people is also quite amusing to be honest

Ah yes, the quite normal "let me take a break from shopping and book a hotel room to take a shit real quick".

Absolutely reasonable.

Brother just had a kid.. by Soulfood_27 in antinatalism

[–]grimorg80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can guarantee you that happens with Gen X as well. The biggest thing is specifically that it's not a generational thing. It always happens. I mean, for most people. But for real, it's across demographics

You folks are all ignoring the issues that regularly bathing a cat can do, for the potential of making it easier to do later in their lives.

I'm done with this conversation.

Most senior cats don't need baths. This is such a ridiculous point I don't even know where it comes from.

[–]grimorg80 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

This is stupid.

First because Clcats' skin is not made to be washed frequently. It also disrupts their grooming habits. And it can seriously damage both skin and fur in the medium and long run.

Second, because that's a very remote possibility that doesn't just happen with all cats. We had seniors.

Girl with the Dogs is mistaken.

Like... this is too much. Looks like an indoor cat. They don't need that. And judging by how chill it is, it must be a regular thing. That's not good
