Using AI in games isn’t about AI coding. Using AI to code games is likely already in almost every studio.
When they say AI in games that means AI artwork, voice lines, environments, etc.
i.e. imagine NPCs that change their voice lines based on recent events like recently completed missions, or your player looks/equipment/etc. With AI you don’t have to pre-record a near infinite amount of voice lines they can be generated on the fly.
It’s not like they want to punish you for paying off your car.
The reality is that a high percentage of the population loads up on more debt after paying off current debts, so the algorithm reflects that. Usually those points come back after a couple of months.
I always see this argument but I really don’t want anything plugged into anything as important as the USB-C port while the phone is in my pocket.
3.5 plugs are rather short outside of the phone (at least for headphones with 90deg plugs) to minimize leverage that you put on the port. Being able to rotate also means less stress on the port as well.
The USB-C adapters are pretty short, but lack the rotation. I have replaced USB-C ports in dozens of Nintendo Switches and other devices, it is pretty clear they aren’t designed to take much stress.
Long story short if anything happens I would much rather have the 3.5mm pin stuck in a headphone jack than breaking the USB-C port and making it so my phone is a brick.
I don’t use the WebOS app but generally default subtitles/audio languages are set on your profile and the apps pick up those settings.
Try logging in to the web interface and going to your user profile. There is a “Playback” section where you can set your preferred languages. If this isn’t set it likely is taking the default language from your media files instead.
Well the title and most of the article seems to be more about stopping prostitution instead of preventing murder… The article talks a lot about these women being vulnerable but doesn’t really give those women any solutions other than taking away their source of income (which I would think makes them even more vulnerable). It seems like they are using the murder to push a different agenda.
The article even talks about a good number of non-transactional relationships which aren’t against the rules and still sometimes results in women getting assaulted.
Maybe instead of making it against the rules they should make sure it happens somewhere where the soldiers are better monitored. Hopefully then they less likely to assault the women, and it would at the very least be easier to get justice than when a tragedy like that happens. Proving who did it is much more difficult when the victim/perpetrator have to hide their activity in the first place.
Yeah it happened to me yesterday once. Hadn’t opened the app in some time and as soon as I opened it, it was complaining about a 429. It seemed fine the other times I was on the app though.
We are both lenny.world though so it could just be an issue with the instance. Maybe they were fighting off a DDoS and had marked some traffic incorrectly as bots.
+1 to this.
First check that you can get to Jellyfin on your Jellyfin server itself (start with the IP address). This makes sure that the service is running, and that you are trying to access the right port/protocol.
If that works, try the web browser on your phone or any other device on your network next. If that fails it tells you there are firewall or DNS issues.
Infinite scroll occasionally has issues for me on lemmy.world. Seems to always clear up after an hour or two so I have always assumed it is maintenance/issues on the instance side.
Restart the app, logout+login again, and if it still persists after a few hours it is likely a configuration issue with your instance. Maybe make an account on another instance to rule that out.
Laws can easily have exceptions for these things. In China for instance “non approved” VPNs are illegal, but there are plenty of legal VPNs as well.
For instance businesses can get approval for their own VPNs, and regular people can use some free/paid VPNs within the country, but presumably the government can see all of the traffic within those.
My prediction is that this is more about banning VPNs than about age verification. Start with this, then when everyone is “using VPNs to break the law” they have an excuse to ban VPNs.
Governments world wide likely see VPNs as incredibly dangerous. Plenty of examples of countries like Iran cutting off the internet entirely to prevent protests from organizing.
I think they want their own great firewall.
Presumably the cert would be a smart card (similar to credit card chips) protected with a pin. And they can use revocation lists to remove cards that are reported stolen.
There would have to be a serial number at the least but that would change every time your card expired, and the government would certainly know who is issued what serial.
Another downside is users would need smart card or NFS readers to use them. Smart cards have been around for digital identification for decades now, it’s really surprising that more government haven’t pushed their use. From a user perspective though it would be pretty quick that every online service would start requiring them and any online anonymity would erode pretty quickly.
Even with https if you aren’t on TLS 1.3 the SNI (server name indicator) is not encrypted so the hostname you are trying to access would be visible to your ISP.
Forcing your browser to only use TLS1.3 would fix that but who knows how many sites it would break.
Unauthorized VPNs (non government approved) are illegal in China. If a business needs their own they can get approval but they have to apply for those exceptions.
It isn’t really enforced, probably especially so for non citizens, but if you do something they don’t like it is something they could use against you.
You would probably be less breaking the law to just directly open up SSH and access that instead of tunneling through a VPN. Even though SSH can do tunneling of its own.
A lot of the Qanon stuff was about draining the swamp by arresting all of the pedo Dems.
They were basically told everything they see in the media is a cover for the real plan to catch these people and that there are already all sorts of sealed indictments that they are just waiting to execute at once, etc.
So some of his most rabbid supporters are realizing something is up about denying this even exists.
Your $1 has absolutely changed in value by 10pm. What do you think inflation is? It might not be enough change for the store to bother changing prices but the value changes constantly.
Watch the foreign exchange markets, your $1 is changing in value compared to every other currency constantly.
The only difference between fiat and crypto is that changing the prices in the store is difficult, and the volume of trade is high enough to reduce volatility in the value of your $. There are plenty of cases of hyperinflation in history where stores have to change prices on a daily basis, meaning that fiat is not immune to volatility.
To prevent that volatility we just have things like the federal reserve, debt limits, federal regulations, etc that are designed to keep you the investor (money holders) happy with keeping that money in dollars instead of assets. The value is somewhat stable as long as the government is solvent.
Crypto doesn’t have those external controls, instead it has internal controls, i.e. mining difficulty. Which from a user perspective is better because it can’t be printed at will by the government.
Long story short fiat is no different than crypto, there is no real tangible value, so value is what people think it is. Unfortunately crypto’s value is driven more by speculative “investors” than by actual trade demand which means it is more volatile. If enough of the world changed to crypto it would just as stable as your $.
Not saying crypto is a good thing just saying that it isn’t any better or worse. It needs daily usage for real trade by a large portion of the population to reduce the volatility, instead of just being used to gamble against the dollar.
Our governments would likely never let that happen though, they can’t give up their ability to print money. It’s far easier to keep getting elected when you print the cash to operate the government, than it is to raise taxes to pay for the things they need.
The absolutely worthless meme coin scams/forks/etc are just scammers and gamblers trying to rip each other off. They just make any sort of useful critical mass of trade less and less plausible because it gives all crypto a bad name. Not that Bitcoin/Ethereum started out any different but now that enough people are using them splitting your user base is just self defeating
Yeah it is pretty bad when an emulator offers a better experience than even a modded Switch.
Easy to load your choice of directory sync tool (i.e. NextCloud Sync Client/Synology Drive Client/etc, or Google Drive/OneDrive if you are on Windows) pointed at your emulators save directory and have your own automatic cloud sync that you have full control over, built in versioning, the works.
Nope, the switch only keeps saves on the internal storage or synced to their cloud if you pay for it. When doing transfers between devices like this there is no copy option only a move and delete.
There are some legitimate reasons they want to prevent this like preventing users from duplicating items in multiplayer games, etc. Even if you got access to the files they are encrypted so that only your user can use them.
I think the bigger reason they do this is there are occasionally exploits that are done through corrupted saves. So preventing the user from importing their own saves helps protect the switch from getting soft modded.
If you mod your switch you can get access to the save files and since it has full access it can also decrypt them, so that you can back them up. One of several legitimate reasons to mod your switch.
I just did a playthrough recently and I think it holds up pretty well. A lot of wasted time on little cutscenes like opening Atla/boxes, and switching characters that gets quite annoying, but gameplay was fine.
One or two bosses that are difficult but a little leveling up, or wiki hints on how to cheese them, and they are a piece of cake. Once you hit the ship dungeon and have easier access to backrooms (since you can buy the fish to enter them) you can grind for gemstones and you end up being able to one hit almost everything from there on out.
Grinding gets a bit boring after a while, I’ll admit I enabled some fish point cheats in my emulator after I had one character with a maxed out weapon. Clear that I could easily do it myself but wasn’t going to waste that time to upgrade the other weapons I wanted leveled up.
Probably a terrible idea but have you considered a private Lemmy instance? At the end of the day Lemmy/PieFed/Reddit are just forums with conversation threads and upvotes.
Lemmy is probably way more of a resource hog than the other various php options but from a usability standpoint if you have a favorite Lemmy mobile app it would work for your private instance as well.
There appears to be a private instance mode that disables federation.
The biggest question is going to be will the AI be able to run locally or will they use it as an excuse to turn the game into a subscription.
I can see it now… “The game needs to make calls to OpenAI that we have to pay for to generate dialog so we need to charge by the month for the game”
They will finally have an excuse to turn single player games into subscriptions as well.
