People talk about filter bubbles, but there’s a nuance here: on Lemmy, you’re not being served up whatever the platform owners think you should see from an opaque algorithm. You’re going to, by default, see cesspool content. You have to choose to block it.

I would agree if my area got much snow, but it’s exclusively icy cold rain.

They’ll just say the president is lying and trying to do a power grab.

Yeah my first gaming pc was like…a crappy HP desktop with an Nvidia 6600 that I plugged in. Worked great for Age of Mythology lol

Oh yeah, I read about that! Not really ML, but pretty much what I’d like more games to have.

I’m glad that many kids are into PC gaming, at least. That’s still a decent vector into computer proficiency and a little hardware knowledge.

Oh that’s really interesting; I hadn’t considered racing games as a genre to benefit from this type of machine learning. I guess I figured there’s not so much to AI there that it’s necessary, at least when we already know the “ideal lap line” for cars to follow, but yeah it gets a lot harder when considering other drivers on the track and a huge array of unique car models with their own handling and performance characteristics.

I wouldn’t mind an AI using unorthodox strategies, but yeah that’s a good point that fine tuning it to be fun is a big challenge. Speaking of “non-player-like behavior”, I wonder if AI could be used to find multiplayer exploits sooner, though the problem there is you don’t really have much training data besides QA and playtesters before a full release.

I’m not into fighting games, but that’s pretty neat! I hope the industry follows suit if people like how it works in Street Fighter 6.

I think it superficially seems inclusive because the overwhelming majority, over 90%, of Chinese citizens are the same ethnicity of Han Chinese.

I went team red for the first time in 20 years with a 7900XTX and have been super happy. Don’t get me wrong, still expensive, but not as insulting as team green’s pricing.

I don’t think the new strategy of injecting ads directly into the video stream can be defeated in realtime though. It’s like how you cannot defeat tv ads…you can blank the screen, or record and restitch without the ads, but the content itself has the ad. YouTube is a bit different where you can theoretically skip ahead, but your device has to tell Youtube that it wants to skip ahead in order to actually even get the video content, and youtube can look at request timestamps to know you didn’t see the whole injected ad and just re-inject it in the video stream.

I should get paid a lot less for typing on a keyboard all day, but oh well.

Ya but do they have electricity? Seems not.

Takin up the one stall to pee when there are three urinals open and I gotta blast

That’s a real thing, there’s one near me

Ironic considering after North Korea invaded the south in 1950, there were various pressures in US military command to employ atomic weapons and 34 were prepared, but ultimately the Americans exercised restraint.

What, does NK have some bizarre projection paranoia that SK will pour over the border like NK did?

Yep. Just look at Sarkozy.

Uhh…Israel was attacked by every single neighbor in both the Yom Kippur War and the Six Day War. Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, and others with expeditionary forces too. What neighbors do you think are Israel’s allies exactly?
