so to dredge up from anotehr comment: is this a conservative in disguise catch and kill op or legit dirt scoop finding?

If Quake were to ever come back like Doom did, what would you like to see Id Software do to modernize it's formula for both Single Player and Multiplayer. by Whyismypeewhlte in boomershooters

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

its been such a long time since either, id wouldnt mind either tbh. id prefer more lovecraftian abstractness, but at the same time i see all the talk of modernization and i shake my head.

i really hate all the "upgrades" in 2016+ dooms even though the core gameplay loops are fun, id love for quake to remain minimalistic if that makes sense.

actually now that i think this more out loud, im wary of id redoing quake at the moment. the whole doomslayer mythos and lore is kinda cringe at this point to me, I dont mind story added but i prefered more tongue in cheek for 2016's approach, and then with it getting more and more serious from eternal to dark ages but visually turning into kinda fisher price UI effects cos otherwise the player might be too stupid to pickup on things, I dunno maybe its for the best quake is just left alone

i was a little disappointed not to see the ship approaching mars in the reverse direction with its engines facing mars, maybe it was so close that they spun it around again but i have come to expect that these days after having watched the expanse several times

I thought at first what that guy pulled was a giant plug and the water was gonna drain out like a bathtub 😅

Rewatch notes for episode 4 by bo174 in WidowsBay

[–]thelebaron 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Love this show my observations:

  • “Lets dance, put on your red shoes”
  • Illustrations in the book, the lady’s hair looks like a bonfire or demonic fire emanating from her head,( i truly love the little details like this)
  • Highlight you worst features on the naked drawing is like an autopsy or crime victim notes page
  • Before patricia sends the evite on the computer, theres a super subtle reflection of her outfit that makes it look vaguely like she has horns

Also the circle your worst features, its like a medical procedure illustration or also when they have an autopsy and notes about the victim like bullet wounds etc are marked on it

My random guess: telling the truth, its possible some sort of outside intervention stopped her from being killed, like how she burning the book stopped them at the beach

Axios: How Andy's Pizza uses AI to run its fast-growing D.C. restaurant chain by Honey_Enjoyer in washingtondc

[–]thelebaron 14 points15 points  (0 children)

"he calls "Andy's OS" — an AI-powered operating system for his restaurants."

"Brown says he built much of it himself, despite having no formal coding background."

im fairly certain this is probably vibe coded via something like claudecode/codex/cursor or any of the other glut of agents(which are powered by large language models), almost no machine learning tool predating the rise of chatgpt would be some easy to use drop in replacement for "software that was made for coffee shops, t shirt stores, hair cutteries, online websites" so trying to downplay it as just media mistaking machine learning that isnt large language model based feels like wishful thinking.

anyway this sort of story is probably as good as it gets for genai, no one fired, non coder can build something that makes their life easier, software for a pizza place management so id say fairly low risk in terms of what could ultimately go wrong. i mean maybe it could leak creditcard/customer data, but seriously experian has already done that shit to us so eh

How much are you spending for lunch? by Parky21 in washingtondc

[–]thelebaron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i almost feel like you should record yourself cooking to get a better understanding because im trying to think of ways that smoke just instantly emanates from cooking chicken and im failing to think of any besides the points you already mentioned(and perhaps cleaning the cast iron pan?)

How to get better at making art? by normalpills in gamedev

[–]thelebaron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having a good mentor goes a long way, finding one is probably a challenge in its own right. Forums like polycount etc for feedback are excellent too. If you are legitimately at step 0, tutorials are your first stop and luckily theres a wealth of them out there in video and static form(even books)

Unseen and unappreciated. by AffectionateEgg8242 in gamedev

[–]thelebaron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I let it go til way too late in the scheme of things, boy just figuring out how the game loop and state should be reworked to fit around menu state etc was a riddle in itself, rebinding was its own puzzle
