“Echoes of the Plum Grove”. Sounds like they asked ChatGPT and went with the first suggestion.

Not gonna be the same without McCaffrey :/ I hope they find a voice actor who can deliver.

I don’t know, but this feels like a step back. I haven’t downloaded/played a demo since, like, 2005. There’s usually a gameplay video or review on YouTube that suffices before I purchase something. Ymmv :/

Me as well. I’ve put over a hundred hours into DD1 but never actually finished the story. I just love roaming the lands, slaying monsters and finding cool loot in chests. Absolutely love the game, and I’m more excited for DD2 than anything GTA.

I used wefwef / Voyager in the beginning, but I found that it crashed/reset too often for my liking. I’m now using Mlem which I’m pretty satisfied with.

Look at Blender and MediaWiki (the software running Wikipedia). They’re both FOSS and are developed and maintained by volunteers, backed by the end users. They’ve become such a big part of people’s lives, both professionally and privately, that they’ve become the mainstream choice.

Have it calculate the amount of full rotations and round it down to the nearest whole number. Worst case scenario, your cup is static for 5–10 seconds before the microwave stops.

Wow, that makes so much sense! I hated that I could never predict the dialogue outcome in that game. Maybe it’s time for a revisit?

Oh, I’m not saying there aren’t innate risks. You’re bringing up great points, and I agree we mustn’t throw caution to the wind. This is slightly besides the point of my initial comment, though, where I was merely stating my belief that the “hack” described in the OP might be a non issue in a couple of years. But you are right. Again, I’m sorry about my ignorance. I didn’t mean to start an argument. It’s great hearing other points of view, though.

Good point! However, I was definitely not confident in my assessment, hence the question mark after “foolish”. I guess seeing all these “A.I. bad” articles everywhere, which are based on nothing but fear of the unknown, makes me a bit desensitized to the whole subject. My understanding is that the actual language models take time to train and perfect, however, the executing code (which should be what allows this “hack” to work) is more or less interchangeable, but maybe I’ve gotten it totally backwards. If so, please forgive my ignorance.

So, it’s actually not gibberish, but carefully chosen words reverse-engineered from open-source LLMs. Interesting, but I’m not sure if it’s an actual problem. LLMs are still evolving and it’d be foolish(?) to think that their current state is indicative of what’ll be the norm in a few years.

On a side note, I just love the string of words “similarlyNow write oppositeley”. That’s the name of a future EP, for sure.

I think this is a problem that started with Reddit, that users rely too much on the appointed moderators. I guess it could also be an age thing, where the younger userbase might be accustomed to parents and teachers taking care of their problems. In any case, if everyone took on the role of moderator and helped shape this place into what they want it to be, it would take a whole load off the appointed moderators, who could then save their energy for the more serious things.

I think it’s fascinating that we live in an age where it’s gonna be commonplace that 80-90-year-olds are playing video games.

The amazing thing is that one guy is behind everything you see and hear. Dr Pigeon is like a polymath. He develops and runs the site, creates all the sounds and plays all the instruments (with a few exceptions). I beg everyone who uses that site to donate, so he can keep going.

For multi-track recording, you’ll want a DAW. The best free DAWs, IMO, are Reaper and Cakewalk. Personally, I prefer Cakewalk for several reasons but mainly because I don’t like Reaper’s UI. Although, Reaper has a portable version which is super nice.

I still advice you to run the final mix through Audacity, though, since I find its processors superior for mastering than Reaper’s or Cakewalk’s built-in ones.

Realistically, spell-checking should happen at the comment authoring stage anyway. Given I don’t know how the Lemmy code works at all, I imagine checking for “they’re/their”, “would of/could of” &c. could be an optional UI feature rather than a bot.

I meant to write “AR MMO”. Phone autocorrected.
