...and another wishlisted game in the bin. c'est la vie. won't miss you.

Okay, this isn't a live-service game.

It's a small, $15 regular 5v5 multiplayer game. The only DLC is a $5 'supporter pack' that gives every character one more skin and the soundtrack.

It's exactly what people have been demanding because they HATE live-service games. And then gets punished as one!

We're not going to have to pay for the funeral costs, because a relative kindly covered that.

Instead of a traditional service for dad, we're doing a cookout somewhere. We're doin a celebration of life deal, instead of a "stand around and everyone feels sad for several hours" deal.

So we've been quoted about $2500 for Dad's funeral services. The plan is to try crowdfunding.

As per dad's wishes, the service itself will be a cookout somewhere nice, like a park. He wouldn't want us just, standing around being sad. He loved being around people and the service will reflect that.

Thank you.

So... my dad died this morning. His health has been declining since December. Sister is taking it pretty hard.

TIL

the goddamn company itself is calling its own game a trojan horse to spread AI acceptance

fuck this game forever, fuck these devs. do not trust any amount of backpedaling.

I’m fucking crying dude. Asking “pretty please do not introduce a security vulnerability”.

April Fools Day This is your reminder not to do prank on: People who are trying to earn a living Selivery drivers Sellers Service workers Fake Pregnancies fake emergencies False job offers Fake Breakups Death Hoaxes Be Kind, Be responsible Fun shouldnt come at someone elses expense.

Not Tapping the sign, I'll beat you over the head with it.

The internet is already going to be useless for the next week, We don't need people being jerks too.

The thing about pranks is that it's only a prank if the target also thinks it's funny.

Otherwise it's bullying.

OpenAI funding fears hit memory chip prices Spending cuts at OpenAI have hit memory chip prices as fears grow about the tech company’s ability to fund its expansion.

Good news! OpenAI is canceling so many large purchase orders and datacenter expansions that the global price of RAM is dropping.

Here are several options to do the same to advertisers

oh did setting money on fire not work out for them then

Nvidia Answers my DLSS 5 Questions YouTube video by Daniel Owen

great reporting here. basically yes DLSS 5 is running a gen AI model on the 2D output and nothing more. it doesn’t know anything about the 3D scene, textures / models / lighting / PBR other than what the model infers by looking at a frame.

TL:DR, they sped up slop.

youtu.be/D0EM1vKt36s?...

I saw one headass YT comment like, “You luddites don’t get it. Eventually we can have simple models and project lifelike faces on them”

THAT’S HOW SHADERS AND NORMAL MAPS ALREADY WORK!

IT’S SIMPLE NON-GENAI TECH!

THE SIREN SERIES ACTUALLY USED IRL FACES ONTO FLAT SIMPLE MODELS FOR UNCANNY HORROR!

Someone patched GIMP to look and feel exactly like Adobe Photoshop.

Same keyboard shortcuts. Same tool layout. Same everything.

It's called PhotoGIMP and it's free.

Old news to us but some of you still just don’t fucking get it so
