Mine is similar to yours in that it’s when I come back to a game after a while. My problem is that the difficulty of the game has increased in line with where I am but I’ve forgotten the moves.

If she were a celebrity would we feel the same?

I would, yes. She’s done absolutely nothing that warrants this treatment.

The only people who should have any ill will towards her are those that are directly affected by her actions. That should be the case even if she was famous before this.

It feels very much like Ghost of Tsushima but there are a few small differences.

I only have two fighting stances unlocked the second being dual katanas.

You have a wolf that pops up and helps every now and then.

I’ve only played a few hours though and I can see a lot of unknown unlocks.

Ghost of Yotei. I’m not far in but it’s very good so far if you like Ghost of Tsushima.

Well, it can just increase the amount of ammo you have or it could put an ammo stash just around the corner.

I stopped playing Resident Evil 7 because I’d decided that the setting that I was on was too difficult and wanted to knock it down a level. It wouldn’t let me do that without restarting the game so I stopped playing.

I don’t understand why they made that decision at all.

I sometimes suspect that I am actually an AI. I’ve always struggled with captchas and I comment my code exactly as you’ve just described.

To play devil’s advocate:

The Netflix equivalent of this is that the show just disappears (the Marvel shows) or you get the first seasons and not the last or even the last and not the first (at one time Prime had part of Lucifer and Netflix had the rest).

The only reason that it went from free to paid (instead of just disappearing) is that they lost the licence for streaming it under Prime Video but they didn’t lose the licence for selling it.

They’ll probably say that it’s for the environment and that you should use a reusable bag for it.

Companies are good at doing things to benefit the environment when it also benefits their bottom line.

Yeah but it isn’t really redundant (even if it could have been worded better). Someone might believe that the other shareholders have some say in how the company operates when they won’t.

So, as far as control over the company is concerned, the Saudis have 100% control even though they don’t have 100% of the shares.

We used to call the code that determined NPC behaviour AI.

It wasn’t AI as we know it now but it was intended to give vaguely realistic behaviour (such as taking a sensible route from A to B).

My tree brings bloody rabbits back which the dog eats when he can.

There’s a few Ts in that comment. There are one or two people who replace “th” with that symbol in the communities that I subscribe to.

I also find it mildly infuriating.

I’ve suddenly been getting regular Windows notifications from Adobe asking me to set them as the default PDF app.

Very annoying when I use Adobe reader once a month or so to sign documents.

They didn’t say that it wouldn’t compete. They said that it wouldn’t compete on price.

I had a terrible first play through.

They spent billions of dollars to develop and train the AIs that they use. They’re not going to remove it for fucking up someone’s YouTube channel.

They wouldn’t remove it even if it caused someone’s death (which it probably has considering that they have been shown to be very bad at therapy and that people go to them for therapy).

I imagine that this is actually what happened.

The AI Fix podcast regularly has reports on the testing of AI models and the testers perform many tests of a situation and report what percentage of times they saw a specific outcome.

It’s amazing how many times they exhibit human behaviour such as lying, hiding their mistakes, and resorting to blackmail. They were even shown to behave like gambling addicts as reported in this article.

You don’t for the one time codes because there is a standard that is supported by many authenticator apps.

App based 2FA is better. Either the app generates a time based code that you enter into the site or the site sends a push notification to the app asking you to verify the login attempt.

Passkeys are good too as they replace the password completely and leave the 2FA part to the device.
