- Comment on HELLDIVERS 2 sees over 130K bad reviews on Steam as Sony double down 1 week ago:
The requirement was stated before release in the store page in a bright yellow warning message. It was supposed to be on launch but it seems there were issues with it.

The n64 wishes it could run this masterpiece

Did you read past the headline?
- Comment on Cops can force suspect to unlock phone with thumbprint, US court rules 3 weeks ago:
Lol if it takes until there’s literal handcuffs on you, you’re a little physically challenged.
- Comment on Cops can force suspect to unlock phone with thumbprint, US court rules 3 weeks ago:
It takes one button press and one tap to disable biometrics on my phone at which point it reverts to a strong password.

Open source software is just a fad and will die out /s

Much much better with mouse support. Still not perfect, definitely needs tweaks but DFHack helps with some of that. Much more playable now

- Comment on Jon Stewart says Apple told him not to interview FTC chair Lina Khan 5 weeks ago:
I mean come on, what did you expect? If you truly want full creative control, shacking up for exclusivity with a mega corporation isn’t it.
- Comment on Microsoft Copilot has been banned for use by US House staff members, at least for now 1 month ago:
So you’re rewriting the wheel every time? I also have worked in games and we definitely utilized public resources whenever possible to save time/money. Asset management in particular has a lot of resources unless you’re talking about truly huge scale things like MMO scale streaming stuff.
- Comment on Microsoft Copilot has been banned for use by US House staff members, at least for now 1 month ago:
You’re going to need to fact check any code you get online anyways, why not have it hyper specific to your current use case? If you’re a good developer, review does not take nearly as long as manual implementation
- Comment on NYC’s AI Chatbot Tells Businesses to Break the Law 1 month ago:
The biggest thing I’ve found is limiting the inputs with a filter and vetting outputs results in higher quality results. One project I’m working on takes highly complex language and simplifies it for users. There’s no user input and it’s not being used to create anything that isn’t already there. It takes the highly technical language with lots of acronyms and breaks it down into more understandable units for normal people. Of course my company is heavily regulated so we’re extremely focused on QA and ensuring it will never output something that doesn’t align correctly.
- Comment on NYC’s AI Chatbot Tells Businesses to Break the Law 1 month ago:
Yet another example of people fundamentally misunderstanding the proper use of LLMs and throwing them into production without any kind of sanity checks on the input and output.

- Comment on PSA - MineTest on SteamDeck 1 month ago:
It’s an open source minecraft-esque game engine with lots of different games people have made on it. The biggest being the one that replicates the featureset of Minecraft.

No?

More like unpaid QA for upcoming early access releases
- Comment on Valve fixes Remote Play on Steam Deck 2 months ago:
It works well! I’m actually using the moonlight client for Xbox so I can play on the couch and it’s great.
- Comment on Valve fixes Remote Play on Steam Deck 2 months ago:
Moonlight client originally used Nvidia’s streaming server. Sunshine is an open source streaming server that moonlight can connect to.

- Comment on Bethesda Is Responding to Negative Reviews of Starfield on Steam 5 months ago:
Procedural generation has existed for many years. There’s nothing AI about it
- Comment on Bethesda Is Responding to Negative Reviews of Starfield on Steam 5 months ago:
Procedural generation is not AI, don’t spew nonsense.
