“It builds character”

AI language models can exceed PNG and FLAC in lossless compression, says study (arstechnica.com)

While LLMs have been used for… a lot, it seems like this use might be one where it’s not only reliable but it appears to outperform existing methods of image compression. Being able to cram more data into less space tends to lead to interesting developments, so I will be keeping my eye on this....

ezures,

Im sure we can squeeze an nft in there somewhere

ezures,

Something really annoying is that they make an isekai, in it they could make anything in their new world, right? 95% of the time it’s the most generic, cookie cutter mmo fantasy world with levels and game mechanics.

Another things is when they spend sometimes multiple chapters explaining the most obvious things, like there’s an adventurers guild, it had the same rank system as any other isekai, they probably get their power level measured, etc etc.

It makes me sad, because there are good isekais, but most of them are just really lazy.

What games can you recommend that didn't get the appreciation that they deserved?

I’ve been recently been thinking about Arkane Studio’s Prey which is a immersive sim, with a pretty good rogue like dlc, that probably has one of the strongest hooks of any game I’ve played. If you liked Halflife, System Shock, or Deus Ex it’s definitely worth a play....

ezures,

An another one to add in the defenestration trilogy :D

Maybe I should replay gunpoint sometime

ezures,

My biggest disappointment in it is that my favorite zone of the map only has one mission, but that mission is great. Apart of that its cool riding cars in the desert.

ezures,

Give anti tank crew weapons for kids. It saves their lives, also teaches them sharing and cooperation.

ezures,

You listening to a psycho?

ezures, (edited )

StarTrek Elysium: Picard after some manuevers in the bar, find himself in an alien civilization with no memories. How will the crew solve this one?

“I said get something nice, not expensive”

ezures,

Bomb Rush rush Cyberfunk, got almost all of the tags, now I’m trying for the ~15 mill score achievements, which I somehow always fail at like 13 mill. pain

ezures,

Yet I still cant stop the marching of time.

ezures,

If it was a game for 10 years old, and it’s been 10 years from release, then we get 20 years olds :) Also its like Lego, anyone can enjoy it

ezures,

Honestly the best new coop shooter is deep rock galactic, fun game, many bugs to be shot, no monetization after buying (theres a free battlepass, but after the season the cosmetics get into normal loot drop, and supporter skin packs).

ezures,

If you rock and stone, you are never alone!

ezures,

Does this mean you can balk jokes?

ezures,

Warcraft 3 reforged, Diablo Immortal, Diablo 4, ow2, anything else?

ezures,

Maybe if Aziz could hold the lamp steady, they wouldn’t make this kinda mistake

ezures,

Trying to get all the tags in Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. Getting close, but sone spot are well hidden.

ezures,

“Don’t worry, it’s just the tip” (currently, before they change the tos/price again)

“Snipin’s a good job, mate! It’s challengin’ work, outta doors. I guarantee you’ll not go hungry, 'cause at the end of the day, long as there’s two people left in the forest, someone is gonna want someone dead.”

“I think the onceler saw me.”

[A bullet ricochets off the ledge under the Lorax.]

“Yes, yes he did”

ezures,

After everything in mystery of the druids, I wouldn’t trust a Brent either.
Link for this fascinating game

ezures,

It’s interesting, how the game direction Hugo Martin tried to delay and sabotage him, the big reason he got the contract is he wrote to Bethesda higher ups directly, and as he did an exceptional ost for doom '16, they put him on the project.

Bethesda does a lot of questionable things, but this was probably their best decision.

Also hope his next project will be hassle free.

ezures,

A friend of mine took their cat to the gas station, after refuelling the cat took a couple of steps and dropped on the floor. I was like “Damn, already out of fuel? What did you say the milage was?”

ezures,

Only a workaround, but steam has great controller settings, and they can even emulate kb+m.

ezures,

Funny, i watched the previous video while having breakfast half asleep. Didn’t realize how dark its gonna get, the surgery scene was pretty haunting. Probably gonna wait with this one a bit

ezures,

20 cents for every death threat not sent? Sure! Whos counting? Dont worry, our propiertary system counts every unsent message, you only need to pay up ^(works every previously unsent message, but only if you got more than 200 000 the past year, we got you)

Bit seriously, why do some people always so eager to send death threats? It almost never achieves anything, gets you on the moral low ground and doesn’t even get to the right persons the first place.

ezures,

Its not a problem if it’s a cut of sale price, but for every installation (or in webgl games every time someone streams it) which the devs don’t even get compensation? So if someone wants to play on multiple devices the cost for developments go up? They don’t even host it, why would the game devs pay for them? They already paying them from sales price, and most likely a subscription fro unity pro (and they conveniently dropped the cheapest tier, so you need to pay even more for the same benefits) so it really seems like just a new tax for extra the revenue. This send like a really good way to chase away any developer.

ezures,

Imagine being downvoted for sharing an opinion on a tv show.

I liked the beginning, the later episode lost ny interest.

ezures,

So noones gona question the sexy steamdeck? Okay

ezures,

they were know as the hacker 4cheese

ezures,

So how does it feel to not have a country? To not have borders to define yourself against the world? (I guess seven nukes do make a clear border, huh?)

ezures,

My bad, but its my duty to always reference it. (They mail me some fanta ever time I do it, which is wierd, i never gave them my address, and I’m afraid what will happen if i stop)

ezures,

Its a bit extreme, but crack-life for half-life. You know there are some people saying they get brain rot from memes? This is like the bottom of a sinkhole for your iq. Every sound is some random effect, the wortigons have afros, the headcrabs are British, your hud is in webdings, the soldiers speak in old tts and the smg has infinite fast firing grenade launcher.

Is a lot, and while you are lost in a word where nothing makes sense, you are losing your ass off. If that’s isn’t enough, there’s a standalone mod, that’s even stupider, even bigger, even more bizarre.

But it’s probably not for everyone, its very 2000 edgy humor, so if it’s not your thing, don’t force yourself with it (might wanna check some vids, Jolly has a good ones, but i think he deleted it some time ago).

What do you think is a good required completion time for video games? What examples come to mind of games that felt just right?

I used to like open world games that would take 50+ hours to beat but I feel like as I get older these games can be intimidating to even start and I often get sidetracked with other games frequently only getting half to three quarters of the way through....

ezures,

I dont want to defend this kind of monetization, but pd2 probably had the best kind of approach, as only the host needed it start it, so if someone had it in your friend group had it you were good. Well exept for the weapon and perk decks, as you only got them if you had the dlc, but it didn’t split the playerbase. (also fuck the loot boxes)

ezures,

Dont blame the heathen for not understanding the holy script, for he hasnt found the path yet.

ezures,

anything below 7 doesn’t count

ezures,

Only seen bits of it, but it has the most hilarious opera song I have ever heard.

ezures,

Recently played ghost tricks, and it’s great mystery/detective/supernatural story! I can never look at Pomeranians the same.

(Also Lynn getting so used to “tricks” is really good too)

ezures,

The most scary stuff is just not doing or experiencing anything after death, at least for me. (Probably the biggest fomo on earth)

ezures,

My man just casually explained the refrigerator cycle, well done

ezures,

Yeah, that’s how I learned it too, but its funny how he has 4 40min videos about it, or things that use it
