Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

"They took the letters from me! I have to talk about dwarf behavior now. I can't even talk about dwarf AI. It doesn't exist. It's dwarf behavior, and they misbehave sometimes."

An under-appreciated AI gripe: professionals can't discuss it anymore.

Anyone working with AI-other-than-llm is now constantly getting weird looks and stupid comments from LLM bros

Similar problem, I had to remind my daughter that I work.in a data center when she was complaining about data centers the other day, and that data centers are pretty coon, her beef (and frankly mine), is with wasteful hyperscaler data centers for AI use.

Our city sent out a map of all the existing data centers in town claiming it’s proof that they dont cause problems.

I don’t think our healthcare facilities data center even remotely compares to Colossus. That’s like comparing a regional grocery store to fuckin Walmart

that data centers are pretty coon,

Pretty Coon:

I have no idea why it did that, I think it was supposd to be "pretty much everywhere".

Typing on mobile? I assumed you were going for "common" but hit the backspace key by accident, since it's right there, and ended up with c-o-m-backspace-o-n.

Ugh, this keeps happening and now I wonder if auto complete somehow got reenabled. I turned it off because it kept stickimg random words in.

[–] takeda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 16 hours ago

I think this particular one is unrelated to auto complete and more to on screen keyboard.

For example in my keyboard the backspace is next to "m" so hiring it accidentally is easy. It also is close to enter and I'm frequently hitting it instead. It is frustrating, and makes me wonder why they just didn't put it in the top right corner as it is on normal keyboard.

Your subconscious just needed everyone to know how pretty Carrie Coon is. Simple as

At least the cryptographers could fall back on the full name!

Well, "AI" in games was always behavior, rather than having anything to do with AI. It was just marketing.

And even then, artificial stupidity is usually more accurate than AI. FPS bots could easily headshot you immediately on sight but like, what good is that. It's literally more work to make them worse at the game.

True thought there were some exceptions, like Black & White.

Lol I just call it IA (interaction algorithm)

Sx one way, Xs the other.
