It's like a vicious cycle:

  1. People are tech illiterate
  2. Tech companies design things for the lowest common denominator.
  3. People don't need to learn anything new and become even more tech illiterate

AI is going to make it so much worse. You'll soon be in the top 5% if you have a keyboard app installed on your phone.

Google's too smart for that. They know there's a big backlash against AI in the tech savvy crowd and that it's bleeding users to competitors. So they offer this escape valve that they know the techies will easily find and use, but which 99% of the population will never even look for. This way they can still push AI on almost everyone while at the same time retain as many disgruntled techies as they can.

I wish there were more short triple A titles. Like 10 hours main quest and 30 hours to 100%. Put those massive resources into quality rather than quantity. Give me a memorable experience over a slog.

I think you're overstating the compute power and understating the amount of cardboard Amazon uses

Yeah.. PC gaming does not imply keyboard and mouse. You can use whatever controllers you want.

It also doesn't imply sitting on an office chair in front of a monitor.

I use my PC to game on the TV, from the couch with a controller all the time.

Honestly doesn't matter how old you are, nothing makes you grow as a person like kids.

Honestly, this is a great move. Now they can say that Pierre wants to take money out of everyday Canadian pockets by taking away their carbon rebates. They should have done this ages ago

In reference to “Games-as-a-Service,” we simply plan to continually update the game for many years to come, just like the previous two Subnautica games. Think our Early Access update model, expanded. No season passes. No battle passes. No subscription.

This has much broader consequences than just France. Imagine if France succeeded in passing this, and browsers had to implement capabilities for government mandated blocklists.

You can be sure governments across the globe would be rushing through similar legislation as fast as they can.

I used to equate Sync with Reddit too, but now I have a different perspective.

Reddit is nothing but a glorified link aggregator. Sync was my preferred way of viewing said list of links. Now that I have the exact same experience on Lemmy I've realized that Sync wasn't Reddit, it was link aggregation and where those links come from doesn't really matter.

It's kind of poetic because that's the promise of Lemmy. It doesn't matter where the links are hosted.
