It's always so funny to see fighting game guys crash off of MOBAs because all of a sudden your agency over the match is cut into a 10th and spread out over an hour long chain of interactions you cannot meaningfully control all at once.

And then the fighting game brain kicks in and they think there MUST have been something they did wrong and the answer is no, you just made a few ambiguous calls on incomplete information 10 minutes ago and it snowballed bigger than one player on your team could handle at that moment

And it fucking kills them because surely there MUST have been a correct option you can lab and memorize because that's how games work! And buddy if that were true then a lot more people would be in GM by now

You can go 20 and 0, control the map, and have all the fundamentals and then your Mid just has an aneurysm at a seemingly inconsequential teamfight and you get shunted into the one timeline where Thanos loses and buddy you're lookin real purple right now.

I think Hector is my new favorite Castlevania protagonist because his entire game is chasing the world's tackiest twink through places he should know about but doesn't with the power of a Home Depot employee discount and this funny dog he found

Hector literally half of all of this is your fault what the fuck do you MEAN you had no idea it was this bad this man mastered demonology and metallurgy without reading a single line of printed text, I can only assume by surviving eating every single ingredient to learn its properties

My favorite Valve-ism is like, you look at Overwatch trying to build serious brooding guys and it all comes off as super hollow because they just feel like skin caddies and then here comes Rem, the ultimate marketable plush and yet the world treats him with emotional gravitas even in the small stuff

tbh i see no universe where we don't just both go to our separate rooms and watch Billy Mitchell documentary videos instead

Be honest if you had to fight ur sona to the death are you winning or not

I joke but you have no idea how many problems I solved by just going up to a skilled artist, modeler, programmer etc. and going "how i do dis" and they were happy to take a few minutes to share exactly how they did something. Sometimes I had people give me a whole ass asset. People love to share.

Look man all I know is it's funny that the AI super geniuses are screaming and shitting because someone said "maybe the pattern identification machine is just sorting on simple patterns" instead of superpositioning neurons based on unfathomable eldeitch criteria

There's a bullshit atavism about this all, like the AI industry is having a Santa Claus moment and you realize that physics still exists, computers still have rules, and you did not in fact create artificial life, and I guess it's harder to entertain the idea that this is all just machinery.

I suppose that, at the end of this all, the idea that polysemantism of neurons might actually just be inane and idiosyncratic observations a machine makes is less good for the idea of a superintelligence than the thought of an AI rewiring its neural pathway for MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY but hey

Look man all I know is it's funny that the AI super geniuses are screaming and shitting because someone said "maybe the pattern identification machine is just sorting on simple patterns" instead of superpositioning neurons based on unfathomable eldeitch criteria

"The computer thinks both cars and cats have V shapes and is sorting them thusly" is far more mundane and comprehensible than "the machine god is refolding its neural network to draw comparisons between seemingly unrelated items far out of our reach" so I know which the dorks like better

Respectfully I do not think people from Insanity Island get to make fun of Americans for anything when you pass laws that put people in jail for watching a guy call another guy daddy

What annoys me most is this framing that stocks jumped because the car flies. Nobody is seriously expecting a WWE entrance gimmick to survive first contact with any regulating body concerned with making cars kill less people. Stocks jumped because new product.

The bar for finance journalism is so fucking low that you may as well just be posting Gamestop reddit posts as industry analyst columns. We have enough outrage without needing to make more of an IRL superbowl commercial of a car showcase.

I do not doubt that this is doable. I do not doubt that the Roadster did it. I doubt that the retail Roadster is going to even bother trying to pass roadway safety standards when your insides are groaning like an inflation fetishist's tire-pumped tummy three minutes before the coroner arrives.

Just did my first netplay tests for Motorkill. It actually held up INCREDIBLY well. I'm going to rework how the physics are run, moving from complete tele-operation to a system where all clients process physics locally and the server sends an authoritative version to reconcile with.

why the fuck would you say this
