So long as you don’t have to shovel it or drive in it, it’s wonderful! Living in an apartment, and relying on Helsinki public transportation was wonderful. I especially enjoyed going from sauna to snow, over and over.

6·7 days agoHave you not seen the Time magazine cover? Once you have, can you deny it?

This is real. I saw it up when I started my first year at Helsingin yliopisto, which was the second half of 2018. I think it stayed up for quite a while, it may have even been up until Vappu (May 1). I believe it was for Europe’s largest hackathon -Junction 2018.
Oh, gotcha. Yeah, my backlog is in the thousands but WoW is a social event for playing with old friends, Ocarina of Time is like a time capsule from my youth, and GTA6 is sure to be an unparalleled experience in every regard. Who knows how many days any of us have left in this existence, or how long civilization itself will last - can’t take money with us to whatever comes next, so might as well spend it on video games. 🎮
GTA6 will likely be my last game purchase of the year and I expect it will entertain me through the winter. I don’t have any other games on my radar on the horizon, it just seems that when it rains it pours.
I hope the emulation provides you a quality experience! The game is fantastic so far. It’s been so long since I last played I legitimately can’t tell what’s new and what I’ve just forgotten was there.
I’m not sure what you mean. They definitely won’t run out of WoW or GTA6, since they’re both digital only, so I assume you mean Ocarina of Time. I bet they will stop selling the physical version, but I doubt they’ll run out before the end of the year.
All three! WoW Forever in two hours, Zelda tomorrow, and GTA later this month. It’s a busy time to be a gamer.

151·12 days agoBandwidth doesn’t matter for gaming - latency does. You could have a 100Gbps connection, but if it has a latency of 1000ms then it’s useless for gaming.
There is.

Thanks. I guess I’ve had enough Internet for now.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Valve has ‘a significant number’ working on Steam’s visibility dilemma but says it won’t gatekeep games made with AIEnglish
1·14 days agoI won’t rehash that argument for the umpteenth time. I’m not going to change your mind, and you’re not going to change mine. Summed up, my retort is that if the AI “stole” content, then so did every artist who ever watched a Disney movie, and every author that read a book, and every programmer that looked at a repository. Theft inherently means something is gone, and the original owner no longer has it - nothing is gone, nothing was stolen.
You listed off a bunch of reasons why data centers are rationally hated, and I agree with you on that. However AI is not a data center. My open weight models running on my consumer hardware, powered by solar energy isn’t implicated by what data centers are guilty of. Yet you would apply the same labels to it, and it would draw the same irrational ire of people who only know “AI bad” because it’s the popular sentiment right now, and probably will be for a decade.
I’m not ashamed of my use of technology any more than you should be ashamed of using a computer - built in a factory, using rare earth minerals mined from our environment, likely utilizing dirty energy, potentially built by exploited labor, and statistically likely to be powered right now by dirty energy.
Usually I would agree with you that omission is lying, but as I’ve said, admitting you used AI will earn you nothing but scorn, with absolutely no benefit for the admission. If an angry mob knocked on your door and asked if there are any vulnerable people in your home, you’d be justified in not answering them at all, and simply slamming the door shut, and locking it. Then ignoring when they keep knocking. This is the same concept. Sometimes “lying” by omission is the right choice.

Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•Since prejudice against AI opened the floodgates on criticizing developer tools, we should do the same for all toolsEnglish
1·14 days agoActually their anti-consumer choices impact everyone, not just developers nor just gamers, due to the creation of e-waste. Hardware that is still fully functional and powerful, but Apple has arbitrarily decided they are excluding it from OS updates. It’s planned obsolescence, and it unnecessarily causes people to churn through hardware - filling up landfills.
I disagree that warnings will protect anyone, or are even necessary. However, since they’re there they should be used to warn people that their money will go towards the creation of more e-waste.

1·14 days agoIf that were true then the labels wouldn’t even be necessary. People could just tell. But they can’t, hence the labels.
Who said anything about lying? Just don’t fill it out, and ignore any accusations. They don’t do it because they’re embarrassed, they do it because irrational people have prejudices.
