So isn’t it a good thing these companies are trying to make it not suck?

And the thing I do on VR 99% of the time (gaming) wasn’t even mentioned. Interesting

Why do you people hate VR?

From what I know, pewdiepie 2025 is nothing like old pewdiepie. Used to review memes, now makes vlogs with his wife and kid while enjoying new life in Japan. Basically retired

This is like saying “Easily available drugs from deep web is nothing new”, but after deep web protocol got integrated into the chrome with black market set as homepage

I understand your core argument, but it’s weak. Fentanyl exists for 70 years, but only in the last 10 or so years it became problematic due to availability

Evil shit that was hard to do 20 years ago, is slowly becoming accessible to every dumb jackass you know that doesn’t know what command prompt is

OS doesn’t need permissions to access hardware

You somehow missed the original argument. No one is forced to use the app store, which is what this is generally about.

Fair, but there is an argument to be made about how hosting things are now cheaper than ever, by a huge margin. When 1GB used to cost 1 dollar, they had 30% cut. Now when that’s 0.01 not 1, 100x the difference (while games have gotten like what, 10x bigger?), it’s still 30%.

But you know what is the most damning argument against their cut? Steam earns more money per employee than next 3 companies combined and Gabe is buying fleet of yachts and multiple submarines, not even getting into real estate, while indie devs are going broke one after another. That cut might make a major difference for devs, but at this point Gabe has already too much money and won’t suffer from having less of it, which is really not consumer or developer friendly thing to do, basically hoarding riches like other billionaires

Jesse what the fuck are you talking about

You’re not really buying the code, you’re buying userbase, rights and patents (if any)

I was talking about CGI. Video editors and special effects, not actors. The editing part. You know - software?

Just to give you an example, some 15 years ago I tracked and positioned objects in footage frame by frame, which used to take a lot of time. Then Mocha came along with AI tools that automate it all, and now instead of spending 10 hours, I spend 10 minutes on a scene

Why would they change? The AI tools in movie industry have been doing miracles for decades. Especially when it comes to tracking and replacing things in footage, which jumpstarted the new era of CGI. OP, do you also want to ban movies like Avatar?

Well I was mostly browsing deep web (/j just in case)

I feel like nearly all russian porn I’ve seen consists of something unconsentual, like deep web of porn

Probably should have googled the meaning of that word first

Honestly chuckled a bit after checking out the front page and pretty much all posts were about… men

But that (making fun of men) might just be the idea behind that subreddit and I’m looking at it wrong

EDIT: I dun goofed

I got called a fascist for saying genocide against Jews is just as bad as genocide against Palestinians. Apparently it’s fascist now to be against fascist things

EDIT: For proof, see downvotes on this comment. I genuinely can’t tell you which platform is more unhinged, this or reddit. Both are special places for special people

I genuinely can’t tell if you’re being for real. By the same logic, raytracing is ancient tech that should be abandoned.

The stuff we had when people thought Hitler is still alive on some Island and stuff we have now is barely comparable, even thought yes, they use a similar underlying technology.

Since I never had the chance to try it out myself, how was your neural network and LLMs reasoning back in the day? Imo that’s the most impressive part, not that it can write.

Check out demoscene. The mind-blowing things they create with only with kilobytes…
