terrrmus@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•Congress Moving Forward On Unconstitutional Take It Down ActEnglish1·2 months agoThat doesn’t make it better. So she paid money to somehow get seated at the same table as Putin and Flynn. If you find yourself at a table with that asshole and you don’t relocate, you’re asshole too.
terrrmus@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•Congress Moving Forward On Unconstitutional Take It Down ActEnglish7·2 months agoI voted for Jill Stein in 2012. Then I realized she’s just as much of a grifter as the others. Also why was she at a dinner with Putin and Mike Flynn?

terrrmus@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•Microsoft has created an AI-generated version of QuakeEnglish3·3 months agoPeople don’t even look at AI generated photos for more than a second. “Oh neat, next.” SO much wasted electricity for instant garbage. One decent AI image has probably a 100+ shitty ones that are just wasting GPUs and hard drive space. When those drives are full and old they dump them and then fill up some more. A mountain of invisible shit wasting our resources.
terrrmus@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•Microsoft has created an AI-generated version of QuakeEnglish33·3 months agoThe amount of energy it must take to generate a shitty version of Quake II. Yeesh.
The only negative opinions I care about for gaming usually come from Stephanie Sterling, because she’s pretty much right every time.
terrrmus@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•Lithium-ion battery waste fires are increasing, and vapes are a big part of itEnglish3·3 months agoI’m pretty sure they technically are but no one cares enough to stop their sale. Obama banned “vape flavorings targeting children” which all of them seem to be. I’ve only seen them for sale in vape/tobacco shops. Places that get regulated, like gas stations, aren’t carrying them. At least around where I am in the USA.
Edit. Doing further research… I guess they didn’t?

terrrmus@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•Voice actors speak out on AI in video gamesEnglish3·4 months agoSteam requires devs to place it right before the system requirements if they use it. Pretty big print, pretty easy to find. You can see it plain as day on the Black Ops 6 page.

Edit. Got it set up and configured. So far I’m liking it a lot.

terrrmus@beehaw.orgto Gaming@beehaw.org•More than 40% of all US PS5 and Xbox play time last month was spent on 10 live service games [VGC]English4·4 months agoI try to stay a patient gamer. If you do you’re usually rewarded with a discounted, patched up game with content it probably should have launched with. The exception I’ve been using for myself recently for AAA games is, is a the game a single player experience with no micro-transactions? If yes, I’ll buy it day one or close to it. I do want to show them that I’m willing to pay full price for these games if they aren’t predatory pieces of shit.

Now we get a digital license that can be revoked and six months to a year of patching for it to be in a stable state. Yay!
Just something to consider…

I know of some specific instances of like community managers or a single employee clapping back. Apparently they speak for every employee and the entire studio? Is that how this works?
terrrmus@beehaw.orgto Gaming@beehaw.org•How to Easily Mod Risk of Rain 2Using r2modman – A Beginner's Guide!English2·5 months agoI haven’t played the game at all since Seekers of the Storm came out but we would play it modded quite a bit before. The Samus character mod is so much fun.
FromSoftware doesn’t really do extra.
