    Skyrim! Because all the really good stuff never actually leaves.

    I've been playing the Shivering Isles portion and the final fight was even harder than the original. Not because it was hard to beat, but because the game would crash without fail about 10 seconds after the battle started. The solution, it turned out, was to wait for six hours in the throne...

    AI don't trust techbros

    Grok is trained on stuff people have posted on Twitter. And prior to Musk turning it into a Nazi hellhole, Twitter had a decent number of sane people who said very uncomplimentary but correct things about MTG. I assume the "fix" is going to be only training Grok on posts from within the last 3...

    Skyrim! Because all the really good stuff never actually leaves.

    I've been watching one of my fav youtubers play through Morrowind, and judging from that, I'm not expecting a remaster, given there's very little voice acting and conversations are often dense paragraphs of text, so playing the original might be the only way to experience it for the foreseeable...

    AI don't trust techbros

    https://people.com/man-proposed-to-his-ai-chatbot-girlfriend-11757334 Once again, "AI" does not have a mind of its own. It's a computer program that calculates what sentences are the correct response to other sentences. Humans are clearly not prepared for this.

    Conspiracy lunatic thread - people who believe in absurd nonsense are dangerous

    Trying to find info on whether inflicting psychological harm on a person is illegal is difficult, but I strongly feel that article is evidence that "AI" should not be available to the general public in its current state.

    AI don't trust techbros

    Intrigued to know how the system is going to know if a call is nonemergency or not in advance. I imagine the first time some kid hiding in a closet during a school shooting is told to take an aspirin by an AI, we'll find out.

    Iran. Nuff said.

    And Iran has managed to hit Israel with some missiles. How could anyone have seen this coming? https://edition.cnn.com/world/live-news/israel-iran-strikes-news-06-12-25-hnk-intl

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    It's possible it's just the secret Nazi moonbase that Hitler fled to after WWII and the GOP are doing a cultural exchange. Hard to tell which of the many possible candidates could be the person the Nazis sent down in exchange. Stephen Miller?

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Remember when we learned Trump was actually in the Epstein files? I think the news cycle has moved to different Trump stories about 3 or 4 times since then, but it seems like that should have been bigger news.

    Now pondering if we could get AI banned by using it to generate videos of Trump as a literal taco.

    UK politics thread – meet the new boss, same as the old boss

    They were letting Tories defect to Labour before the election, so little wonder they now have a group of conservatives trying to swing the party as far to the right as possible.

    Skyrim! Because all the really good stuff never actually leaves.

    Currrently on my third character. This one is a vampire Breton mage. Haven't finished the main questline yet. I'm amused by the fact vampires visibly emit smoke if they go out during the day. Not so much by the bug where vampires have their hair randomly disappear. Using a hood to hide the bug.
