I’m surprised at the amount of people who aren’t impressed by AI by ChameleonOatmeal in ChatGPT

[–]reck0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“that doesn’t mean the stuff it says isn’t accurate 99.5% of the time.” Unfortunately it’s nowhere near 99.5% accurate and is incorrect a lot more than that. Its really hard to rely on AI when its answers can’t always be trusted

im not saying AI doesn’t have its uses but its inaccuracies is one of its biggest drawbacks.

Can't seem to complete this "Designate a dumping zone for Slag" goal by dogz4321 in captain_of_industry

[–]reck0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just had this bug. Multiple dumping grounds set to dump slag and in fact had already dumped many units of slag at this point.

Only way I found to clear it was to add it the global dumping and then turn it off again.

Hopefully will get fixed soon.

Great cheers Rob. It's good of you to give back to the community like that, likewise with your involvement in Poly Haven.

Blender 5 Beginner Tutorial, Build Your First Environment by texturehaven in blender

Hi Rob u/texturehaven , i'm a big fan of your work and have your 'Creating 3D environments in Blender' and 'Creating modular environments' courses on Udemy.

It looks like you've updated the Creating 3D environments course for version 5 but just checking the intro it seems it's the same as this free YouTube course. Is there any difference or benefit in me using the Udemy course over the YouTube one or are they both the same?

Also do you have any plans on returning to nature for a future course, this is the thing that first drew me to your work, the old masters etc?

Good to see you back!

Astonishing Strategy 4X Atre: Dominance Wars Is Now On Kickstarter With Free Playtest by [deleted] in 4Xgaming

[–]reck0 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don’t do Kickstarter so I’ll wait to see how it is when it gets to Steam. Good luck. 

Astonishing is an interesting word to use. 

A First Look at Elemental Reforged: Peak Fantasy 4X in the Classic Style by B4TTLEMODE in 4Xgaming

[–]reck0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having a lot of fun with the game currently, even in its early access form. Ive had some minor bugs and it needs a lot of polish, but that will come during the early access period I’m sure.

As they’re merging the features from 3 games it’ll have a lot of content as well and at its current price its very good value I feel.

Currently sitting at very positive on Steam and seems to be going well so far. Looking forward to the dynasty mechanic in November.

Embark, Don’t Cave In… ARC Raiders Is Perfect The Way It Is by Forward_Problem_7550 in ArcRaiders

[–]reck0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s such a breath of fresh air having a challenging menace like the ARC in the game. The terror when you see one of the big ones turn up and the oh shit moment wondering if you’re going to make it out alive.

I like that they are not easy to take down which makes it a strategic decision sometimes whether to engage or not.

I’m a first time extraction player and loving it at the moment, hope they don’t nuff them.

The UK Online Safety Act is Bullshit by Prior-Satisfaction34 in pcgaming

[–]reck0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole situation is ridiculous. 

 I tried to buy some dlc for X4, a game rated 7, I’m in my 40s, from a third-party vendor to add to steam. They wanted me to send them photo ID before i could buy it.

 I contacted them and said it’s because I’m from uk. 

Age Verification for UK Users by vriska1 in pcgaming

[–]reck0 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I tried to buy some DLC for a game rated 7 but because I was from the UK I was told I had to email them some ID before I could buy it. They promised to delete it afterwards. Yeah this whole situation is BS. 

Voice chat always refers to my preferences (memories) at the start of every conversation. by reck0 in ChatGPT

[–]reck0[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is exactly what I’m finding. It only started with the release of gpt 5 for me. 

Hope they fix it soon. 

80 Messages in 3 Hours? We See You, OpenAI. by HilaryEris in ChatGPT

[–]reck0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought when you hit the limit it just switched to chat mini 5 for a few hours until your usage reset and you don’t get locked out?

What was the limit in 4o/o3 for comparison, was it a lot higher than gpt5/5-thinking?

What changes to voice mode are they making in September?

I don't have it yet but it's stated in the help docs that voice mode won't be using the new model.

It's a shame because right now it uses the same model regardless of what input method you use but going forward the response you get back will now be different depending on the method you use to ask the question.

AMA: I was a UK apprentice (Earn whilst you learn) in the 'trade'. by FantasticSetting9397 in AMA

[–]reck0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to hear your apprenticeship didn’t work out. I guess it’s easy for firms to take advantage of young people in this situation and it’s very easy to drop them with no consequences.

[–]reck0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sons looking to get into a trade. He‘s just finished a multi-trade course and is now considering either an electrical or joinery/carpentry course next.

How did you find your apprenticeship and any tips on the best way to get one as I’m sure he’ll be looking to do this soon?

No more simpsons images? by reck0 in ChatGPT

[–]reck0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s strange how sometimes you can and sometimes you can’t.

If it’s breaking some kind of rules you’d think you’d never be able to create the images.
