on Indie game developers have a new sales pitch: being ‘AI free’ in c/technology@lemmy.world · 20h ago
I figured this would have happened sooner for every industry.
People resent AI in every way imaginable. I would not even be shocked to find companies who do use AI to be lying about it like this because it is such good advertisement.

Hence why I’m often of the habit of waiting until I feel comfortable and safe with the person before it gets to that point.
Granted, out of all the people I’ve been with, I have only ever asked one of them out. I’m aware that I have frustrated some people by not asking, but I was never at that point and if it was that important to them then they should have asked instead.

on Microsoft patent describes in-game advertising triggered by boss fights, loading screens, and cutscenes in c/games@lemmy.world · 2d ago
I have an older laptop that I was actually thinking about experimenting with first, just to give myself some confidence in figuring everything out.
I’ve been stalling on that though.

I always figured that this would be added for xbox within a year or two, but if they try for PC I really will go onto one of the linux wikis and start swapping immediately.

You can tell a lot about someone by how they treat people that work the lower wage occupations.
Cashiers, entry level customer service or other entry level desk jobs, entry level blue collar work. All of those people are hard working members of society who contribute so much despite how little they get paid in return and I don’t want anything to do with anyone who doesn’t treat them with respect and kindness.

on AI staff 'genuinely frightened' for humanity's future, ex-Anthropic researcher tells BBC in c/technology@lemmy.world · 3d ago
So apparently we’re using up all our resources in order to create something that might kill us all.
Sounds like a fantastic idea.
I’m going to go cry now.

The party may be dying but I have 10 seconds of presence of mind up and I’m gonna throw glares until it ends.

on ‘I had to change where my kids sleep’: Man shares terrifying experience, says Amarillo officer tracked him 78 times in c/technology@lemmy.world · 11 Sep 2026
As someone that’s been stalked twice before the flock cameras are terrifying. I’ve always been taught to keep my head down and avoid attracting attention but it just seems inevitable these days that someone is going to do this.

on US police fear Meta smart glasses could be used to secretly record them in c/technology@lemmy.world · 9 Sep 2026
If that’s what it takes to get regulation for them I suppose.

on Discord Is Bringing Back Age Verification for Millions of Users in c/technology@lemmy.world · 7 Sep 2026
Yeah it’s difficult convincing people due to sunken cost.
You could be chatting on a better platform that offers everything discord offers for free but you’d have to convince your friends and the servers you frequent to all move.
It’s not about the platform itself as much as it’s about the communities that are all already there.
Even the one person I know who is terrified of losing her account and preemptively set up alternatives on other platforms still won’t leave until something forces her.

I enjoy playing games with my friends :c

Live service gaming is about to get so much worse when companies start obsessing about adding this.

Thanks, I’ll look all of this up later and see how I can handle it.

Interesting. What would you recommend though, and how would you recommend searching for these services?
Just on the off chance that north america could become like the aforementioned countries.

So what does work in those countries?
I seriously doubt these fridges need to have any of that firmware added.
