I’m in IT. A lot of my job is Googling the answer, but I have to know what to ask and sift through what to look for that most employees won’t know.

A photographer will know what to input better than the average Joe to get a better photographic image out of ChatGPT by giving F-stops/aperture, shutter speed, ISO, lenses, bokeh/depth of field, rule of thirds, etc.

But yes… we’re getting closer and closer to George Jetson’s job of pushing one button and calling it a day.

Took a Waymo for the first time a couple weeks ago, 20 minute drive. Did a pretty good job. There were a couple times where I wasn’t sure what it was doing… minor things like signaling to turn left but then decided to go straight instead last second, getting a little too close to a curb, etc.

However, it never did anything illegal as far as I could tell. The biggest issue is other human drivers. Since they do illegal things all the time, Waymo has to be extra cautious, which causes longer waits at intersections. Saw a human driver blow past a stop sign when it noticed it was Waymo’s turn to go. 🙄

Technically, her mind controls the muscles that control the hand. But yes, her mind doesn’t control the hand directly.

It is pretty cool to see the hand work away from the limb.

We have to go back!!!

Probably referring to this, but don’t know for sure:

I think Mastodon is closer to Lemmy as a Twitter alternative over Bluesky.

However, this does a good job explaining the differences:

Well, with the system bundle it was only going to be $50 more. No way I was gonna pay $80 for it. With the stupid tariffs, who knows what’s gonna happen?

I’m so glad that the prices were revealed right before the tariff announcement.

So now… they either stick to that and suck it up or they will increase them and show more people what these tariffs are doing.

They very well could be implementing that stuff into the sequel.

I prefer 9-Volt. It’s shockingly good.

Yeah. I know what you mean. We still have fun playing it and just take it as it is.

Anyone can answer the questions at the main menu so maybe it’ll get better over time.

They also released The Jackbox Survey Scramble last year which was surprisingly fun.

You shouldn’t judge someone for having a grass fetish. They have wants and needs like anyone else.

When the lawn gets cut, which activates its distress signal with that sweet fresh fragrance… OP can’t help but get off on that.

I buy the correct way and it’s been working okay so far. The moment something is taken away, I’ll get it back another way.

Even though physical discs are superior, with audio especially, I really don’t have room to store all the things I want.

I saw the article before somewhere on my newsfeed and didn’t click on it. Until we get some kind of new type of technology, flying cars will always be planes or drone that kinda looks like a car.

You can technically play Avowed in third person view, but I understand your point.

I was so looking forward to that game. Once I found out it was basically just a multiplayer experience, my interest dropped. Still haven’t played it.

The problem with many games and movies nowadays is that the gatekeepers are people who don’t really have creative/artistic background. They are business people who make decisions on whatever they think makes the company the most money.

A.I. has its issues and controversy, but I feel like creative people who can’t get through the blocked doors of these business types will go on their own and create wonderful things with the technology. I guess time will tell.

Put all borders in Sharpie, you Apple cowards!!

You must be pleasant to be around.

Legend of Zelda and other big name NES titles were $60 USD back in the mid to late 80s. That’s over $170 today. Average NES games were $40 back then, which is still around $115 today. Discounted $20-$25 games are closer to today’s $60-$70 standard edition titles.

Yes, they were cartridges with chips back then, but prices are a lot better now for a game. Today’s $100+ games are for the ultra/deluxe editions.

That said, I usually don’t buy games at launch unless it’s something from like Rockstar.
