To some degree it's because certain options work better in other game modes and settings. For example, there are characters and karts in Mario Kart Wii which are only viable on a h…

I think there are really two types of use cases for LLMs here, and people that get value out of them. First are those that care very little about the quality of the work, or the pr…

I recall some rather awkward/amusing examples of this in media reports on certain video games. It's better now, but at one point, about half the featured images for articles about …

It's definitely proof that dynamic ads added via an external script library are a massive security risk, that's for sure. Even if the provider doesn't actually get hacked like Adfo…

Says how originally people played arcade games and didn't own them at all, since you were constantly putting in quarters to play more of the game. It's an interesting point, though…

I'd say celebrities and creatives in general are often big offenders here too. Lots of actors/athletes/musicians acting like being good at what they do means they're also qualified…

RationalWiki calls the third one 'Ultracrepidarianism', and says it's rather common with engineers in general: https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Ultracrepidarianism (the Wikipedia arti…

Honestly, my experience is that it's less age specific and more like 80-90% of the general public. A lot of people just can't recognise the difference between a credible source and…

So, how many countries will be left to participate in these competitions if FIFA doesn't change course? What about if even more national associations from non-European countries ge…

So, practically every single post on LinkedIn? And for that matter, about the same percentage of articles and job listings? Honestly, LinkedIn is 99.99% noise, regardless of whethe…

They definitely want to. Old Reddit is simple, efficient, and mostly free of the obnoxious limitations and extra 'features' found on the new design. It's the exact opposite to what…

Personally, I've found that understanding what the AI generates well enough to make substantial changes to it hasn't been too difficult, though it'll obviously depend on how comple…

Yeah, even if the website itself gets less traffic than the places you syndicate the content to, it's at least a stable home base that's there if those platforms fall apart. Are yo…

Seems they forgot to noindex the /share directory or path. That said, someone has to have shared these links publicly at some point, since there's nothing on the Claude.ai site lin…

Oh, this is quite a common sight on Twitter/X now. I think I recall the Super Mario Galaxy Movie was leaked on the site before this, and that Avatar the Last Airbender movie ended …

Twitter limits for video lengths are insane, at least for paid accounts. Apparently you can just casually upload a 4 hour video now, which is how so many films have been leaked her…

Eh not really. I don't tend to use AI for writing in general. I've used it for code on occasion, but the actual text has always been human written, and I've always made sure I coul…

Wonder if they're one of those people who thinks one of the founders donating to a right wing political parties make the service not worth dealing with: https://mullvad.net/en/blog…

Looks pretty neat. Definitely brings me back to the olden days of Windows 98, that's for sure. However, is there any JavaScript functionality implemented here? I tried clicking on …

It's also not trivial to tell if an open source project has had malicious code added. It might be a bit easier than to tell if there's malicious code than if the weights in a model…

This reminds me of how a lot of older TV shows and movies had an 'enhance' button that could somehow magically take a tiny, blurred image and blow it up to a level of detail where …

Eh, I feel the productivity argument kinda depends what sort of project you're using it for. If it's a local tool that only needs to solve a very specific problem you personally ha…

This feels like a move that might backfire, especially for the journalists at said publications. It's already harder to research niche topics than it used to be, given how much inf…

Hmm, did anyone else have issues loading the screenshots here? I had to open most of them in a new tab to see them. Regardless, that's a pretty sneaky scam, and definitely somethin…

Same reason people watch any streamers; they either enjoy the streamer's personality, the games they play, or both. For a lot of people, it's basically like watching one of your fr…
