Worm weapons were easiest way to actually kill yourself in that game. Agreed.
I mostly want them to fix spawning, so I don’t see when enemies spawn.
Otherwise I never had any particular issues with bugs, and don’t expect major gameplay changes since it’s remaster not remake.
Reminder for everyone not to give your period data to sketchy apps, as it can be used to detect pregnancy and used to detect someone having abortion. Sadly this is realistic threat in our day and age.
I’m man and one of my favorite type of stories are historical stories with women who defy the gender roles of their time. Also in general historical stories from perspective of someone else than white guys. I find them empowering even though they are not about my empowerment. Also I just find the stories more interesting than watching just another historical war movie with almost all men except main characters wife at home or smth.
Although there is this “girlboss” archetype I see in movies I really hate. Kind of one that feels like a committee wrote feminist character because it sells. Well we are likely to see less of those with all the anti DEI stuff, so I guess monkey paw wish came true.
Well maybe, micro work is really dehumanizing and cognitively rough. I hear some US inmates do work at McDonalds and if I had to choose between that and microwork, and if time I spent working was the same with both options, I would take the fastfood job any day. At least have done that before irl so I know what to expect.
I’m ADHD in IT job, and my mind would explode if work I did with computer was just unskilled datasorting job.
But I do know US inmates have basically slave conditions. But I read a book about microwork and it sounds like psychological torture to me. Like what they do in Severance.
(Work without worker is the book)
I hear they do micro work for mechanical turk in some Finnish prisons. It is optional, but surely won’t teach you anything at all about tech.
Most things aren’t very complex, if you divide them into small enough chunks. My niches are IT/audio/music. Many things in those can be initially offputting to newbies, but like 99% of what I know is not very hard in and of itself, it’s just hard because you lack the context of other things that are related but separate from that thing of itself, and those things are not that hard either. Most of the time all attempts to explain it to you have been just bad and convoluted, trying to explain several things at once.
When learned some music theory, I was almost angry at how hard my previous teachers had made some simple things made them out to be Like you could had explained that in like two or three sentences and elaborated on that, I would had understood immediately.
And many things even in seemingly unrelated categories share a lot of concepts, or at least similarities. Once you are knowledgeable about few subjects, it is really easy to build upon that, and learn other things quick, if they have any common ground with it.
Especially when you learn to make useful oversimplifications/heuristic thinking that are good tool to get a grasp before you dive into properly understanding the nitty gritty. This is dangerous if you don’t keep it in check, my manager seems to be only able to think this way, and doesn’t properly understand anything. But it can act as a filtering layer when presented with too much information, or incomplete, low quality information. I have done technical support and most problems are fixed like this, hence the classic " have you tried turning it off and on" default scenario. If it doesn’t work I actually engage my brain with it.
Thinking you are very smart, even if you are, is usually bad feature to build your personality around. Ofc it is good metacognitive skill to understand your strong features, and if intelligence seems to be one, more power to you. But smartness is just one thing, and you can’t objectively evaluate it. Plenty of “smart” but not wise people fucking shit up as it is, and you will likely have better luck with people if you don’t overindulge in this type of thinking.
I certainly have that, but have always also though thinking you are a fucking genious is counterproductive for ones learning and possibly social relationships, so I have tried to limit its hold of me, although not always successfully.
That being said, one last advice, most people are not very smart, and even if they are, they might be doing things out of external reasons, not internal. If you have at least modicum of intellect and lots of passion, it’s not that hard to be better than the most with just the power of genuine interest and longetivity.
Getting hired based on that skill is another thing, but if you truly care about getting good at something, you will soon realize many people aren’t even trying, at least on the standard for “trying” you have for yourself, and you will slowly but surely get better than them at that skill even if they are initially better. Not that it even matters as much to you as it does to them because you care about the thing itself more than their opinion.
While some things might need some natural ablities or benefit from them, most things can be learned with enough reps and continuous evaluation of your learning skills while at it.
I actually do this with my notification sound too, but never got around to making a ringtone. Very few people call me to my personal, and I don’t want to bother with the work phone since I’ll just end up hating that sound no matter what it is.
Especially when it is my on call helpdesk ring tone. I’ll instantly pull harder thousand yard stare than Cillian Murphy on my face.
Exactly. I know someone who is really smart and works in machine learning and when I listen to him in isolation, AI sounds like actually useful thing. Most people just are not smart like that, and most applications for AI are not very useful.
One of the things I often think is that AI makes it possible to do things that shouldn’t be done very easily and fast, that would had previously been too much effort or craft for some people, like now they can easily make website for whatever grift they are pushing.
This is not by default bad thing, if it is something you only use when you decide to do so, when you don’t have other subtitles available tbh. I hate AI slop too but people just go to monkey brain rage mode when they read AI and stop processing any further information.
I’d still always prefer human translated subtitles if possible. However, right now I’m looking into translating entire book via LLM cause it would be only way to read that book, as it is not published in any language I speak. I speak English well enough, so I don’t really need subtitles, just like to have them on so I won’t miss anything.
For English language movies, I’d probably just watch them without subtitles if those were AI, as I don’t really need them, more like nice to have in case I miss something. For languages I don’t understand, it might be good, although I wager it will be quite bad for less common languages.
So start normalizing using ffmpeg to type in whatever you want to say, and render it as a video with just static text on white background to make it even more expensive?
Same, but apparently android app is no longer supported since google play was too annoying for the developer. So wondering how long I can keep it up.
That’s fine, but most posts don’t get enough activity for need, I can get the vibe of all three comments with one glance.
Partially kidding, but I’ve never been overwhelmed by amount of lemmy comments like sometimes on other platforms, which I don’t use, where I might need tool like this.
