Can't wait 'till they go to sue Valve for enabling people to perform piracy of their software on their platform.

Can you tell if an AI is being trained on these Lemmy instances? How would you detect it and stop it?

💯 exactly where I learned about it too.

Just a thought, remakes like this tend to appeal to people in the PC crowd. We've all moved to PC for various different reasons. Better games, better prices, better hardware? Emulation and software preservation is the name of the game for a lot of people. Those people are working everyday to make things like the steam deck the dream game console they always wanted. That's the kind of person who will go back and replay Final Fantasy 7 four or five times.

This. It used to be the dream because we believed in what technofuturism had to offer. We believed in instant access to knowledge and we thought we could all make it cheap enough that it would be an uplift across humanity.

We came up with so many cool things in the process. Little did we know we were simply building the foundations of our dystopian cyberpunk corpo future.

I do think it's interesting that a lot of people seem to think AI is going to take away jobs but understanding AI just a tiny fraction, it seems like the things that are threatened are one that were already micro serviced away like internet search.

We use search everyday and having the best search engine means being the best tech company. These companies are in a race to topple Googles search dominance through providing AI as a service. There's money in them hills if you can train an AI to recommend when and where to go buy the newest shiny thing that solves all your problems.

I can't hear you over my audiobook "Pounded in the butt by my own butt" written and read by author Chuck Tingle.

I once met Bob Camp in Atlantic City in 2015 and he told me this whole story. He said he hated JohnK and that he was possibly the most deranged person he had ever met. He then told me that the only thing that came out of this that was good in the end was SpongeBob.

Sick Little Monkeys: The Unauthorized Ren & Stimpy Story is the book that he referred me to if I wanted more details.
