  • You’re wrong on point #1. This isn’t being done per Sam Altman for commercial purposes. It’s being done per Microsoft in an attempt to remove the OpenAI board completely. Facebook recently shutdown its AI Ethics division.

    All of this is happening in conjunction with each other. Large corporations are trying to privatize AI and using key personnel in the industry to make it seem like a good thing. This wasn’t just Sam Altman. Whoever drafted the letter demanding the board steps down is working with Microsoft to do this.

    More than likely, that group went around spreading doomsday to the other employees in an attempt to scare them into fleeing the company.

    Sam Altman is just a pawn.


  • HoMM3 with WoG mod is a ton of fun. Songs of Conquest is 4X I believe. Also great fun.

    I think EXplore is the big thing for me. The more incentive you have to explore, and the more content to be explored, the more enjoyable the game is.

    I way prefer Sci-Fantasy, but it’s a toss up between the Sci or the Fantasy.

    I think Grand Strategy is where I’m at right now, and I tend to focus a lot of games in that area.

    What is the smartest way to get into Stellaris right now? I’m waiting for the whole DLC package to get marked down in November or something like that. The Steam Workshop pretty much controls mods right now, so GoG isn’t an option from what I’ve read.

    For people who play Stellaris regularly, I recognize that the game has been less popular recently. Is there a specific reason for that?





  • Gas giants are more like the Sun than the Earth. You cannot really stand on them for instance as they don’t really have a terrain in which to do so. They are primarily gaseous, which is why they are called gas giants.

    Also, having a floating city on a gas giant makes no sense either. It’s similar to suggesting that a star could have a floating city hovering directly above its atmosphere. That’s not possible IRL, and it’s confusing for a science-fiction video game to have that kind of element while striving for realism.

    Overall, I feel more confused by the idea that people think this makes sense than to yell “confidently incorrect”. Interesting though.
