  • Thanks, that was actually really interesting and I learnt stuff I didn’t know beforehand. The thing is your comment seemed to trigger quite a few people (me included) because it seemed insensitive. Thankfully you later commented that “For some people (like all the ones in the article) they want it fixed. Others are perfectly happy the way they are, and both are fine and none of anyone else’s business” so you obviously get it. It’s funny how easy it is for people to misunderstand each other in forums like this. This has been a learning experience for me.







  • There’s something he said in that interview that felt like a hint about why he’s behaving like he doesn’t give a damn anymore.

    “For a while there I was like really getting demotivated and losing sleep over the sort of the threat of AI danger and then I finally sort of became fatalistic about it and said well even if I knew annihilation was certain would I choose to be alive at that time or not and I said I probably would have choose to be alive at that time because it’s the most interesting thing. Even if there was nothing I could do about it. So then, you know, then basically sort of a fatalistic resignation help me sleep at night because I was having trouble sleeping at night because of AI danger.”

    A billionaire who believes that we’re all probably doomed within the next decade and has accepted it so he can sleep at night.

    Maybe explains a lot about his behaviour? If you know this all ends in the next few years, why not just try crazy shit.






  • Really stunning looking atmospheric game but then I read this in a Steam review posted today by user Sawovsky “By far, the worst thing in this game is infuriatingly outdated traversal mechanics. The game only allows you to climb or descend at very specific places, and it won’t let you traverse anywhere else, despite being obvious that our character can do so. It’s hard to describe just how annoying this is.” I think I’ll wait to see if others echo this sentiment before going for it…
