People just buy an early access game like they buy a normal game and treat it like that’s the game.

Yeah, because devs release an early access game then treat it like that’s the game.

Who?

What exactly do YOU think LLMs are?

Machine Learning is a kind of AI. LLMs are but one kind of Machine Learning Model. All LLMs are Machine Learning models, but not all Machine Learning models are LLMs. LLMs are one kind of AI, but not all AI is an LLM.

They’re different words for a reason. If they were all the same thing, we wouldn’t give them different names. It’s completely possible and understandable that someone would find one acceptable but not the other.

There’s nothing quite so uniquely irritating as someone who holds a strong opinion on something about which they know very little.

“Democracy is government of the people, by the people, and for the people… But the people are retarded.”

I am a burnt out loser who can’t go a day without weed

You’re thinking about it wrong. You’re using the language of the oppressor.

You’re a medicinal marijuana patient. You suffer from an illness you didn’t earn or ask for. Cannabis is the medicine that manages your symptoms. If you don’t take your medicine, your symptoms get worse.

“Good” and “bad” are subjective terms. I accept myself for who I am regardless of anyone else’s opinions. I’m happy with who I am and my opinion is the only one I need to be worried about.

I’m the worst person I know. And because I’m such a bad person, I don’t even care.

If you’re overtaking, you’re supposed to speed up. If speeding up would put you at an unsafe speed, then overtaking is too dangerous at that moment. If there isn’t enough difference in speed to overtake in a timely manner, there isn’t enough difference in speed you should want to overtake.

Just because cruise control makes you drive a constant speed doesn’t mean it makes you drive the correct speed. Either adjust it down and accept your place in traffic, or turn it off long enough to speed up and complete your overtake without turning your two-ton death machine into an obstacle for everyone else to maneuver around.

fuck them lol in a rush for nothing

First of all, you don’t know that. They could be having an emergency. If it was your relative dying at the hospital, you’d want people to move out of your way too. Second of all, it’s not your job to police the roads. It’s not your job to make sure people drive slow enough. If you think someone is being dangerous by driving too fast, the safest thing you can do is get the fuck out of their way. Adding another car to an already dangerous situation only makes the situation more dangerous.

Call and report them if tou have to, but don’t try to enforce the law, that’s not your job.

Don’t forget glazing the GTA 6 trailer

Physical media also comes with a license.

licenses are a very IT central idea.

No, that’s just the implementation you’re most familiar with. Licenses are a copyright idea that IT adopted and made digital. Every physical movie and game you own also comes with a license that authorizes your retail use of it, but forbids your commercial use of it. You can’t rent your copy of Shrek out to people, nor can you charge admission to people to watch Shrek at your house, nor are you allowed to make copies of your Shrek DVD and sell them, for example.

Ben Franklin was very progressive for his time. He owned a few slaves early in his life, but soon freed them and spent the rest of his life as one of that time period’s most outspoken critics of slavery. He even bought a printing press so he could spread anti-slavery rhetoric more effectively.

You have internet, there’s no excuse for being wrong unless you just like spreading misinformation.

All of that sounds unintuituve and complicated, which I think is the main complaint overall.

Best start believing. Politics directly affects literally every single aspect of your day-to-day life whether you believe in it or not.

I think it would have to be. Something like Arma or maybe MGS5

Kinda like Armored Core that’s online and couch co-op. Instead of robots, you fight armored bugs, like Starship Troopers. Think Deep Rock Galactic co-op against bugs with Zone of the Enders style mechs and Killing Floor style wave based survival with a boss at the end.

Conscripted

A game where you’re conscripted into an army for an authoritarian regime and sent to commit atrocities against innocent people on their behalf. You can play through the game normally, following orders and getting an ending of some kind.

Or, you can go AWOL, betray your country, and organize a resistance. This option will not be advertised or indicated by the game in any way; it’s available only to those who dare try to go against the game.
