Hell yeah. More games I’ve never heard of and will never play. That’s my jam.

I’m sure it’s someone’s jam though so I’m happy for them.

“And not only are we not going to do anything about it, but we are actively seeking new and exciting ways to make the problem worse for the sake of profit.”

Their researchers say this just days after people were talking about them secretly updating their privacy policy to allow them to steal your shit for AI. I honestly wanna start pirating everything, even the stuff I don’t need to, just because if they can steal my shit without my consent I should be able to steal theirs. At the end of the day they’re the ones making money off of stealing but I’m the bad guy?

You mean they don’t want to.

We’re all kids. We just have responsibility now so we have to pretend we don’t want to sit around and play with Legos all day. None of us have “figured it out” and the only reason it seemed like adults knew what they were doing when we were kids was because adults were old enough to have fucked everything up at least once.

The best part about late stage capitalism is that all the worst people have all the money to do whatever the hell they want.

You’re goddamn right I do.

It’s crazy how fatal falls can be for ANYONE. Seriously. I’ve seen people fall off a 4 foot ladder and have it be fatal. Or slip on ice. Or just trip on something. I’m also a kinda tall clumsy person so I think about this a lot too. Plus I’ve taken OSHA classes on fall protection which only made it worse. :)

I wish Valve had some sort of monetary incentive to fix this. If this happened to the cash cow that is Counter Strike this would have been fixed already. It’s sad to see this going on especially with the resurgence TF2 has been having lately.

I’m just a dude cruising around here browsing “everything” while at work instead of doing my job, so I know I don’t really have a say here. But I just wanted to say something…

First off, I 100% support everyone that is in this community. I’m bisexual myself and I will always support everyone involved. But I just gotta say… This acronym is getting a little long these days. I understand that everyone wants to be represented and I have nothing against that. I’m just saying we only got 19 letters left.

Anyway, this is just the opinion of a bored dude procrastinating at work.

“hey christians! do you sin? now you can buy your way out of hell!”

What’s the fucking point of court if the worst corporations don’t even have to show up? That’s just fucking stupid.

Just look up Sam Altman on job replacement my dude. He doesn’t give a single fuck about anyone and just keeps going for the sake of progress. All he does is avoid questions and use buzzwords just like the rest of them. He sounds like Elon Musk 10 years ago before he stopped trying to hide the crazy.

You should watch some of the interviews with these non profits. They sound like cartoon super villains.

I used to get excited about this kinda stuff. Now I see it and just wait for it to get challenged and go absolutely nowhere.

Two morally bankrupt companies pooling their resources to make the most controversial and often shady tech we’ve seen in years. What could go wrong?

I mean, every company making AI these days is morally bankrupt. It’s just the idea of any of them teaming up in the first place that gives me a bad feeling.

Not exactly. But if you disagree with their decision you’re automatically antisemitic.

Honestly, as a dude, I’m 100% down for male birth control. Can’t wait.

I’m a PC gamer and have been since I was a kid. It’s literally my number one thing I do when I have free time is get on some games and hang with the boys. It’s a big part of my life.

As game companies go, I don’t trust Microsoft, EA, Ubisoft, Blizzard, Bethesda, Sony, Epic Games… It’s a long list. Valve is the only company I even kinda trust (Which isn’t even that much these days). If Microsoft bought Valve I’d probably never buy a PC game again. Because all the companies selling them would be companies I don’t wanna give money.

But it’s not true that they were buying it so it’s a moot point. Just wanted to rant. :)

Honestly, I love windows 10 and windows 7 even more. I have had very little complaints with them and I miss 7 every day. But when support runs out for Windows 10 I’m switching. It seems every single day they come up with another stupid plan or “feature.” Whether it’s AI that’s barely helpful or forcing me to use their software and services, I’m exhausted with the obnoxiously aggressive tactics to get me to use them.

It’s almost like LLM’s aren’t the solution to literally everything like companies keep trying to tell us they are. Weird.

I honestly can’t wait for this to blow up in a company’s face in a very catastrophic way.
