This reference is so old, that Johnny 5 must be dead by now.

Today I learned I’m a fabulous dish!

Which is why the robot voice actors should unionize. It’s a crime that human voice actors have been stealing their jobs for so long!

Yeah, it’s the interest rate issue across the whole tech industry.

This is absolutely right. It’s reductive of me to say that recycling is bad for the environment; intentionally reductive.

People generally have a very hard time absorbing the fact that plastic recycling is a scam, so it’s hard to start nuanced to actually get the point across.

But you definitely nailed it. I would argue that if it was reduce, reuse, revolt, the environment would be in a much better place.

Sort of. It’s less a guard down thing as a fraudulent hoax thing.

Recycling was actively brought forward as a solution by the oil companies to push the blame of plastic use onto consumers.

So while recycling rare metals is always valuable, plastic is definitely not. Almost all plastic gets buried in landfills, and the only way to make this not happen is to not make products with plastics.

By creating and marketing plastic recycling as a solution that the consumers must take onto themselves, it allowed them to rake in profits by moving everything to cheap plastic alternatives.

We are now literally made of microplastics as a result.

I’m fond of saying that recycling is almost exclusively bad for the planet. It’s true and people don’t like hearing it.

As the London devs even said, they are really excited for this new content and performance update, and they asked you to put down your pitchforks.

This is going to be a setback for the modding that has been done, for sure. That is the contract the mod community understands when they build their creations. It’s very evident at every step of the way that you are not using consumer grade products with ABI guarantees.

But Bethesda has publicly stated they went out of their way to try to reduce breakage of mods this time compared to the skyrim anniversary version. So we have to wait and see what that means.

But if you want to hold back performance improvements for everyone because a small niche within the modding scene will have to update their mods to work, that’s not a reasonable ask.

I can almost guarantee that more people care about the free next gen update of Fallout 4 than will ever play the Fallout London mod.

I’m legitimately excited for the Fallout London Mod, so this isn’t meant to minimize it, but modding, even in Bethesda games, is a much smaller niche than people on here seem to think.

Bethesda is legitimately doing something good for the game, for free, and they announced it two years in advance.

The only upsetting part of this is that they recently announced a launch date and it is coincidentally close to when Fallout London was planning to release.

If that one coincidence wasn’t happening, then nobody would be complaining about this pretty cool free update.

At least not until after it releases.

You are trying to fill in sections of colors that are touching, either in a straight line or a grid of blocks. The numbers are how many blocks are filled by that line or grid for that color.

It ends up being a mostly mindless but relaxing game.

What aspects weren’t for you?

I had a similar journey but I spent more time with it and I found that it is very almost for me! I just wish there was more time and reason to explore the depths and less in-between (cut scenes, especially).

But it’s a great game regardless!

Aww a catapult, I wanted a peanut!

Exactly!

People are expecting this to take people’a jobs so they’re picking apart the tech instead of paying attention.

Making an NPC be run by AI most likely will require more writing than it does now, but the end result will be worth it for games that strive for immersion.

Ok. So call me when it’s ready.

I am unimpressed by the nonsense articles like these coming out about early tech.

You won’t convince me that AI can’t exceed “taking an arrow to a knee” quality dialogue repeated over and over, and that shit is still the best immersion we’ve got!

You, sir Spaceman, have summarized this story with the perfect reference!

“Well, in regions where it is permissible, yes we should lower that age.”

Roblox is saying they don’t consider it to be exploiting minors, and Fortnite is saying they will only exploit minors where it’s legal!

Here’s how you solve this problem. Don’t monetize user generated content.

Thank you for attending my TED talk.

I think they mean that the thing Ubisoft did, Activision did with overwatch and so they won’t buy Diablo 4.
