  • AI will eventually be given the task of creating a game based on prompts and it will be able to do that with minimal curation with considerations of other similar games and the consensus about them. It will be able to accomplish the entire dev in a fraction of the time of a conventional dev team of humans. This is probably 10-15 years away and will be the death of innovative risk taking games that come to be held in high regard.

    What is emerging is AI upscaling that will eventually allow a game made 10 years ago to look new. Soon there will be extrapolative AI that can remaster something like Super Mario Bros or Goldeneye and make it into a modern gen graphics game regardless of what “modern” means.

    AI can be a fantastic tool to ease the burdens of the game development process to decrease costs and time so smaller studios can focus on the core of what makes a game good. Unfortunately studios will integrate AI into the development process as they remove humans to decrease costs to an overall detrimental degree and the market will be flooded with mediocre derivative games that offer nothing of value in terms of experience.


  • If you were hired as a CEO and you were paid tens or hundreds of millions of dollars, you would have the financial means to help a lot of people. You could buy apartment complexes and lower the rent. You could open up homeless shelters. You could start a food pantry. You could buy medical debt and write it off. You could pay for legal funds to help domestic abuse victims.

    The problem with people making millions or billions a year is that they don’t use their wealth to help others.





  • I believe there were rumors based on comments about Chicago in response to the mayor’s comments, but no official statement saying that Chicago was the first sanctuary city to be descended upon.

    It is my understanding is that at this point they have directed ICE to start going down their list of illegal immigrants that have committed serious crimes. My assumption is that they have to get a strategy and assets prepared to do large scale raids, which they could not have formally done until after inauguration. I also assume they will be weeks or months away from large operations and they will be gathering a large mobile task force that will hop between cities while local offices are gathering lists and information about subjects that will be targeted.

    I expect Chicago to be the first city to see a large operation just as a “fuck you” to the mayor, but other sanctuary cities that have said they won’t cooperate are also prime targets.


  • The argument they are using to avoid PCA is that it is a national emergency that threatens national security due to the cartels being a terrorist organization that infiltrates America via the southern border.

    So the national security acts that were passed post 9/11, that people were warning about being a dangerous tool that would allow military deployments on US soil, are what really allows skirting of PCA.

    The irony of that is that is has been the right wing that has been the loudest about the dangers of those national security acts because they were worried it would be used against them, but a knife is used to cut whoever isn’t holding it.



  • Almost nobody is going to care unless you go places nobody cares about.

    We don’t segregate people by color, but some people self segregate. There are areas with more black people or more white people, but there is no laws that say you or her can’t go somewhere because of skin color.

    I am assuming she is black. There is a small chance that some people will say rude things to one of you because you are with someone of a different color. Don’t confront them, just walk away. The cops would love to ruin their whole day, so govern yourself accordingly.

    We see a lot of Germans in the tourist spots, your accent will be considered adorable and we will love to know where you are from and will likely fail to repeat the name of your home city unless it is Berlin, Frankfort, or Munich. If you are from Bayern, you are from Bavaria. If they ask you to say something in German, “etwas” is funny, but you will have to follow it up with an actual sentence. Throw in an “umgebung”, it’s a fun word to us.

    Also you need to understand that America is very large. Germany is smaller than our states of Illinois and Indiana, look at those states on a map and understand that things are further apart than you may think.

    If you can manage the 2hr drive, Chattanooga has an awesome aquarium with a massive glass walled tank.

    Ask the hotel desk where are some good local spots to get food, but the best places are not in the information pamphlet they may hand you. I hope your pants fit loose, our food can put weight on you very easily if you take in too much of our hedonistic freedom. Tip your servers, that is how they afford to live.

    Ich höffe das Eures Urlaub wunderbar sind und der Amis sind freundlich. Ich weiß das Sie Amerika lieben werden. Mein Deutsch schlecht ist, tut mir leid, es ist zwanzig Jahre her dass ich Deutsch gelernt habe.



  • That’s what ended the super advanced lost civilizations. They all get advanced enough to figure out feeding scientists to younger scientists preserves knowledge and advances the pace of technological advancement.

    Problem is they didn’t know that it only works once and they ended up killing leaders of innovation and feeding them to children and forgot everything, leading to ruin.

    Read your Bibles people, its all in there.
