- Comment on Larian will no longer use GenAI for Divinity concept art, and any genAI used for other games will be "trained on data we own" 2 days ago:
Sorry, I mean in the context of this article – they’re specifically talking about Gen AI here.
- Comment on Larian will no longer use GenAI for Divinity concept art, and any genAI used for other games will be "trained on data we own" 2 days ago:
Exactly what I’m thinking. If it’s an ethical line then the answer is to just not use AI full stop. If they can’t do that, then this is really just about optics.
And if they can’t stop using AI, it makes me wonder why I keep seeing people say it’s so useless…

That’s my thinking, if the concern is that they want to be positive that no copyrighted materials were used in the toolchain, that really just doesn’t sound feasible for a single game dev to pull off.

I’m sure they can train an existing model with that, but my understanding is that basic functionality requires a huge amount of broad data to train the base model
- Comment on Larian will no longer use GenAI for Divinity concept art, and any genAI used for other games will be "trained on data we own" 2 days ago:
Is it even possible to create a model on just their content?
- Comment on Valve amended the Steam survey for December 2025 - Linux actually hit another all-time high 5 days ago:
For sure. From personal experience, I’ve been gaming on Linux for a few years now, but it was only last year that one friend finally decided to switch and it stuck. And after that friend, 2 more made the switch. And then another friend got a Steam Deck.
It does feel like it’s starting to heat up.

If you say so.

You don’t say

Oh no, this photography invention is going to ruin the portrait industry!

Oh no, the printing press is bad news! Someone think of the poor scribes!

And if those artists do their work on a digital tablet instead of physical media, they are also diminish the work of actual artists.
- Comment on Steam Linux Runtime 4.0 released 1 month ago:
For SteamOS, yes. Steam Linux Runtime is a container environment for running games so they work across different distros.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
Right, and the point is that nostr isn’t “crypto-powered” by that colloquial definition. It is “crypto-powered” in that it uses encryption though.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
To be fair, I have some dedicated fans following me around to downvote me and post snark.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
Lmao even
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
Apparently not for you
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
Lol it says it right at the end of your quote.
Nostr is a protocol, not a platform.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
twitter-like microblogging platform he couldn’t be banned from.
Wow, what a good faith breakdown!
No, he wanted the ability to built microblogging platforms on top of a decentralized relay network.
But of course, you only skim-read, so can’t blame you too much.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
Ah yes, Twitter, the famous protocol for sending signed JSON blobs over a relay network.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
Ooo I LOVE when they get so mad they go into my history.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
Better luck next time!
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
Either you believe that the Bitcoin infestation is all just a total coincidence, or you don’t.
Of course it’s not a coincidence.
Now would you like to back up your original claim, or admit that it wasn’t what you meant? I didn’t want to play these stupid games, but clearly you have an agenda here.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
I provided proof. With links.
Sigh, I guess you do want to play games.
Okay – no you didn’t. Neither of those links demonstrate that the purpose behind creating Nostr was to exchange cryptocurrency. Would you like to try again? Or accept that you didn’t mean it like that?
Will you back up your claims that the Bitcoin crap that infests the app and its community is just a coincidence?
Did you reply to the wrong person or something…? I never made any claims like that…
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
I asked you for counterevidence to the claims, not apologism.
Then you don’t know how burden of proof works. Instead of demanding that you back up your claim, I accepted that you wanted to water it down and refine it into something you could better defend.
Do you want me to have forced you to back up your original claim and devolve into semantics?
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
The claim was:
The protocol was built to exchange cryptocurrency over it.
Not:
The protocol attracted attention primarily from Bitcoiners who built tools around it to support payments
The new, watered-down framing of your claim sorta just makes me think: “Okay? And?”
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
I mean, re-reading, I guess I should have asked how it’s like Twitter. Lightning being duct-taped to the side, while being normatively loaded, is actually accurate since the lightning integration is just that. One protocol interacting with another.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
Which one?
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
So if someone says “the moon is made is of unicorns” and I say “what are you talking about? no it isn’t…” is that JAQing off? I’d call it challenging someone making an absurd claim.
There aren’t any concepts or domain expertise I’m hiding here – I’m merely saying “wtf are you talking about??” to someone spouting off random nonsense.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey funds diVine, a Vine reboot that includes Vine's video archive 1 month ago:
That wasn’t a question…
If people are going to make wild assertions, I’m going to question them about them.

No it wasn’t…
