Honestly, movies and shows should stick to showing people playing racing games, because then you only need to instruct the actor to move the left stick around and hit the right trigger.

Perfectly believable gameplay with just two inputs.

They just have a secret kink for becoming compromised by dictionary attacks, specifically.

This is the gamer equivalent of when you hear music and see someone playing an instrument in a show/movie, and nothing they are doing matches the music.

Your example at the end is pretty much the only way I use it to learn. Even then, it’s not the best at getting the right answer. The best thing you can do is ask it how to handle a problem you know the answer to, then learn the process of getting to that answer. Finally, you can try a different problem and see if your answer matches with the LLM. Ideally, you can verify the LLM’s answer.

I did the same thing with mio energy (energy drink concentrate) once, expect it was more… intentional.

I was quite stupid then. Nothing like a raging headache and a pumping heart.

The ones I have seen most recently are so thin and flimsy that they are worse at the job than a paperclip.

I usually find my thinnest allen wrench and use that.

…Armored Core 2? The person you replied to is talking about Assassin’s Creed 2…

Did you even read the article? This is a matter of limiting the number of times a licensed user can authenticate their copy of the game within a day (based on hardware/software IDs).

It has nothing to do with OS compatibility. It can be recreated on windows machines by spoofing hardware IDs or even - god forbid - changing certain driver installs too many times.

It’s to stop pirates from using one a legit activation ‘key’ to provide the game to others. Which is funny because they’ve found a way to extract the denuvo ‘key’ from a demo and spoof full game denuvo access for other games.

The $800m figure is only useful for figuring out how much Tesla was expecting to make out of it. When you factor in the development and manufacturing costs, they’re hemorrhaging money.

Hell yeah if I could get a free cybertruck I’d have lots of fun salvaging the motors, batteries, sensors, etc.!

Expedition 33 has me hooked. Amazing game.

Whisper posts shudders

The main frustration I had with Baldur’s Gate 3 while being busy is that I would have sessions where a glitch would silently compound over a couple hours of gameplay, and when the glitch finally manifests, I had to reload a very old save to fix it.

In my case, >!Shadowheart killed Laezel in camp, but Laezel was somehow still alive and in camp. Later, this causes problems where the game will acknowledge she’s dead, and then she will show up in a Githyanki Creche conversation, and then disappear again. So, she is effectively not part of our story but then also is a secret party member. !<

TIL back yards exist

The US has a history of using death/suffering as a “deterrent” for illegal border crossings. It doesn’t really work that way, though.

Excerpts from Immigration and Naturalization Service “Border Patrol Strategic Plan 1994 and Beyond”:

The Border Patrol will improve control of the border by implementing a strategy of “prevention through deterrence.” The Border Patrol will achieve the goals of its strategy by bringing a decisive number of enforcement resources to bear in each major entry corridor. The Border Patrol will increase the number of agents on the line and make effective use of technology, raising the risk of apprehension high enough to be an effective deterrent.

The prediction is that with traditional entry and smuggling routes disrupted, illegal traffic will be deterred, or forced over more hostile terrain, less suited for crossing and more suited for enforcement. Mobility of enforcement resources will be essential in tracking illegal traffic to prevent local “hot spots” from becoming long-term problem areas.

They targetted safer passageways and funneled migrants through the Sonoran Desert, which promptly led to increased migrant deaths but an unchanged quantity of crossing attempts. It’s not like the migrants can afford to turn around and go home.

It makes sense that the logical next step in the death-making company is to buy a death machine since it’s “cheaper” than processing inviduals and sending them home to their deaths.

The way I see it:

On English lemmy there are countless situations in which people fail to pick up on jokes/wordplay. I imagine the same happens quite often in any media in any language.

I would imagine it’s a way to familiarize the kids to the incentive structure of the badges when they are still too young to be focused.

Alt+Tab goes to a random window instead of being in the order of recency

And big corportations will always pay good money, so long as it makes/saves them money in the future

Neat, I will be saving this and reading it when I’m less busy… maybe I’ll get back to you on it.
