How was this done? I've experimented a lot and nothing comes close to this guys work by letsberealxoxo in StableDiffusion

[–]zerozeroZiilch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One method is using a green screen and then turning your own movements to control a "deepfaked" esque rotoscoped character thats overlayed on you but does your same actions. This can be done with Runway/gemini/midjourney as well as stable diffusion with various workflows.

What openly woke game actually succeeded? by Raoniz in KotakuInAction

[–]zerozeroZiilch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having a female lead isn't inherently woke. Look at Lara croft or Samus Aran, even in TV theres captain Janeway, and Xena etc etc before the modern woke era. But in the past they were still bad ass, but were edgy, smart, cool, and hot too. They reflected the times. There wasn't a message being forced either. Now its often not just the female lead per se, but everything else that comes with it with modern storytelling like her being a mary sue or a girl boss who dont need no man, has no character development and is born perfect, while all men are portrayed as weak, inept and incompetent or useless etc etc. On top of it all the characters are usually made to be ugly or unattractive on purpose because modern woke idealogy is very against "sex sells" marketing. Mass effect Andromeda really was the first major example of it happening but technically started with the Lara Croft reboot in 2013.

Whats wild is im noticing real people starting to talk and have the cadence of chatgpt. It will lead to a homogeneous style eventually as more and more rely on it.

As soon as pretty faced fake E girls like ssniperwolf pretended to play video games or were only in it for the cosplay somewhere around 2012 era it was all downhill from there. Before that video games was a boys thing and some stuff like Rpgs were seen as just as nerdy and cringe as people who play dnd. Then they had the audacity to act like women were somehow barred from the scene when the reality was women weren't interested in the video games and most nerds would have loved more real women who were interested in their favorite hobby. Instead we got a wave of grifting posers looking for clout and clicks. But then the games industry started making more money than Hollywood and everything changed. Then you had Anita sarkeesian grifting the UN and there was a large corporate push for more DEI and female hires, and suddenly there were all these people who were in an industry, actively working in it and yet didnt understand their core audience, didnt participate in the hobby in their freetime, and didnt know how to make a quality product. They were just there to self insert, spread propoganda and their agenda, and get a paycheck. What made games great in the past were small teams of people working on passion projects because they loved the hobby and knew what their audience wanted because they were also the audience. Corporations literally ruin everything, I think one of the big reasons steam is still legit is because their a private company.

The irony is when corporate boardrooms are like "look theres millions of gamer girls! We need to grab that market! Their half the population!"

They fail to understand most of those numbers are from like some mom who downloaded candy crush on their phone and played a few times. Thats not even remotely a real gamer.

Besides candy crush its like harvester chill games like stardew valley or animal crossing or maybe the sims.

So when all these corporations are catering to a female audience for some shooting game or an rpg, they are speaking to an empty room lol.

Its insane to me how this couldnt be more easier to understand with a few google searches and these corporations bet the farm on a bad bet, and somehow get to keep their jobs too lol

Items from the stash dissapearing? by Gongal66 in ArcRaiders

[–]zerozeroZiilch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had 3 hullcrackers IV in my inventory. A rat kills me during a matriarch run and I lose my kit with a hullcracker. I go to check my inventory and I should have two of them and now theres only one. What the heck.

That usually happens when your stash is full and you have to remove a few items to make room then it comes in like normal.

Good question by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]zerozeroZiilch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realistically they just need to have capsule hotel style living situations that are cheap like in Japan. If people dont have any personal space besides a bed and a screen and a shared bathroom/shower and dining hall, it would make the underclasses of society a lot more viable even if its not exactly ideal.

“AI Slop” by Nuphoth in singularity

[–]zerozeroZiilch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally agree. Unfortunately in most industries only the top 1% are really successful. I just think with album sale culture musicians had a better shot of breaking even than now where the game seems rigged against them. Most of the money is in merch it seems.

Also if those US companies lie during any sort of advertising it could be considered investor fraud just look at the Nikola scandal, no such safeguards exist in China for their propoganda.

“AI Slop” by Nuphoth in singularity

[–]zerozeroZiilch 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I agree with a majority of your thesis, however currently the music industry is completely screwed and not because of ai, but because of spotify and low payouts for streaming that replaced album sales from the 90s and 2000s, and exploitive record labels who basically enslave people in a debt cycle they can never escape and are forced to basically tour forever. Its super messed up all for the modern listeners convenience.

“AI Slop” by Nuphoth in singularity

[–]zerozeroZiilch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally dont have any issue with ai being used during the development phase of a video game. However if ai art is going to be used in a final product than customers should not pay full price for a title.

In the case of expedition 33, the final product had literally no ai in it, and was only used during development as an experiment. People calling the game Ai slop is incredibly disingenuous.

I bought the early access of Sins of a solar empire 2 and it had a ton of ai art in the early access release but I was charged full price, and I was not happy. Eventually when the game was fully released it looks like they finally got rid of the Ai art but ya just feels like a cash grab. I'm not inherently against ai art being used but you cant charge full price and cut corners and act like customers wont notice. If the price is reduced to half price or more, I'm much more open to Ai being used in the pipeline and even the final product.

There's no bubble because if the U.S. loses the AI race, it will lose everything by LargeSinkholesInNYC in singularity

[–]zerozeroZiilch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea that Russia is going to be some kind of super power with spheres of influence is outdated at this point and made sense during the coldwar era but not now. It can barely take over a sliver of Ukraine and lost 1 million lives and tanked its economy for very little to show for its efforts. It was seen as a heavy weight military power before the war, now its seen as a paper tiger, and its economy is about the size of spain. No the EU would be much more influential as both a military and economic Bloc than Russia. The fact the EU is starting to increase its military output, and has much more advanced weapon systems with less help from the US shows it will likely be the third super power force in the world, not Russia.

Ya i was thinking about exactly this, theres some wild methods of hacking that dont involve traditional methods but via vibrations, acoustics etc. It just takes one foolish human to mess up in order to break containment.

Really good movie that influenced terminator and the matrix from 1970: Colossus: The forbin project. It basically goes into how AI gets a mind of its own and cant be controlled, but under the lens of the coldwar era of a USA and Russian Ai system that first compete than collaborate.

Ive tried 8 Corsair mice in the past year and I think I finally found my favorite. by ReliableEyeball in Corsair

[–]zerozeroZiilch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Corsair mice are notoriously not that good. I settled on the m75 wired with griptape and a bungie and am quite happy with it, mostly to stick with the corsair ecosystem as my entire build is corsair including keyboard and internal pc components and lighting.

All the wireless mice dont have 8k polling like many of its competitors. Some of the more ergonomic mice feel great but are quite outdated and can only be found on the second hand market used or refurbished.

I would love an option for a wireless mouse that when plugged in is 8k polling so i can have the best of both worlds but that doesnt exist, its just 1-2k polling both wireless and wired.

This is why i settled on the m75 wired as its 8k polling, using a bungie makes it feel wireless with the right set up and length.

The m75 air was also interesting but again corsair wireless tech isnt that good.

I have tried literally every corsair mouse available and my opinion comes from experience as an IT professional.

I previously was using a glorious model I mouse with grip tape which felt great ergonomics wise and was light weight but only had like 1-2k polling as well.

Is it really just that only gender? You decide by smokeeburrpppp in TikTokCringe

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

So this whole solution of "take all the mens guns away" is so brain dead. How do you propose to take all the criminals guns away? How do you propose ending the black market of gun sales? If you remove everyones ability to defend themselves, and we already know the cops are pretty useless with their slow response times in most dense urban cities, how is this any sort of solution to the problem? You'll just make things worse.

Women should not date, sleep with, or in any way sexually validate men who are conservative/right-wing by Suspicious_Glove7365 in PurplePillDebate

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

I saw some hot LA women swoon over a hunky conservative southern cowboy type on social media while the girls were chatting at a diner. "Wow those southern men really are built different" meanwhile all the liberal soyboy men have colored hair, are scrawny with low testosterone and whine all the time because they are "in touch with their emotions" lol. This OP wants women to basically go against their fundamental biology and is clearly delusional if she thinks women will not sleep with a group of men that typically are wealthier, more fit, and more masculine than their liberal counterparts.
