• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨itch.io will soon let you filter games with genAI disclosures out of your search results on the site, after admitting it was previously "critically lacking"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Unenforceable on the code side of things. And increasingly unenforceable on the art side too as AI has moved towards procedural generation of graphics with code rather than directly creating images with diffusion.

  Only way would be to force devs to submit their source code alongside the binary. Some games do this on the virtue of how they were built (Balatro being a good example being written in Lua), but this will never be something the gaming studios accept en masse.

  Is this even a large number of mice in the USA? Every wireless mouse I’ve bought has a normal battery…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bluetooth tracker hidden in a postcard and mailed to a warship exposed its location — $5 gadget put a $585 million Dutch ship at risk for 24 hours⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  How the fuck does this Bluetooth device transmit its location over miles through a fucking steel aircraft carrier and my headphones disconnect from my phone 3 feet away all the time?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Prepare for HDD availability trouble as they're getting sold out too⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The best computer is the one you have. I built a rig 3ish years ago now and found that I just don’t play the AAA games that require the cutting edge hardware often enough to justify what I spent back then (let alone today). I could have grabbed a used 10 year old machine and played all the games/run all the productivity stuff just fine with that.

  You talked about the peripherals that should not be named, that’ll be $25 please

  “If I keep the price the same, how will I afford my fifth’s yacht’s docking bay for my smaller yachts?!”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US | Net neutrality advocates won’t appeal loss, say they don’t trust Supreme Court⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Even if the Supreme Court overturned the appeals court ruling, the current FCC would almost certainly eliminate the rules again.

  This seems just as important…why do it now when in 3 years (hopefully) the next admin reverses it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Minecraft Creator Says That If Buying a Game Is Not a Purchase, Then Pirating It Is Not Theft⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I have no problem agreeing with anyone on a point, even the worst people on earth, if I think the point is correct. If someone else chooses to associate me with the person making that specific point because I agree with it, that’s on them.
