Honest question for white people that don't consider themselves racist:
White nationalists have been vocal about their attacks on DEI. These are literally the same people that talk about Charlottesville, Jan 6th, and ethnic cleansing.
They've laid out exactly how they plan to destroy DEI.
Make false claims that DEI is about giving unqualified Black people an unfair advantage
Work with racist politicians to use this as a pretext to make all DEI programs illegal.
@mekkaokereke It genuinely confuses and shocks me that the default isn't to assume that everyone is against this nonsense - and its just a small percentage of bumpkins you don't see.
Even being asked to say, "anti-DEI is stupid" feels childish, because, duh?
@froyok fascinating thread. I vote for make your own tooling, as if it doesn't exist, someone else would probably use it too (spoken as someone who has written many tools that I doubt anybody used)
I feel there has to be a way of training neural networks to recognise the influence of their training data on the output.
This would probably include training a complementary indexing network + database that would then ”reverse-training” resolve and offer at some predetermined accuracy the #copyright-viable sources for each generated #aiart
I need some help though. A proof would show the companies know it can be done, but they just don’t want to.
@gimulnautti considering all of the Metadata that goes into every single pixel this isn't beyond the realm of possibility at all, but it will never happen even if you perfect it. Nobody is going to willingly prove that they plagiarized all of their art.
Still on my Ys Memories of Celceta trip so when I was shopping for harder to find, but cheap Visual Novels and RPGs, I had to add this one to the list.
€33 brand new, so I'll call that a steal. 🥰
@autism101@actuallyautistic No to 2 and 4. Just because things frustrate and upset us does not give us the right to take it out on others. If we are made to apologize for such things then we clearly overstepped some social bound.
It almost never happens but I love when I find a perfectly good case for a goto: to avoid code clutter. I don't think I never used it in C# until today. Nice!
US patent office and #Sony can both go fuck themselves. This dangerous precedent set by #Nintendo and #Sega is only continuing on a worse and worse path.
Make no mistake - this is a CONSCIOUS ATTACK on #indiedev and smaller #gamedev to completely push them out of the market.
then how come i get bored of 99% of them after a single run?
conversely, why do my favorite jrpgs still manage to feel fresh the 10th time?
the care with which you build a world and the gameplay has nothing to do with your specific sub-genre. If your game has a lot to offer, people will play it.
proper randomization and dev time spent on it should be spent elsewhere.
So Lizzo expressed basically that she concedes to being canceled and quits. Good job random bloodthirsty mob. Give eachother a celebratory reacharound.
@RickiTarr@Kierkegaanks do you know the whole story? its basically SA, and definitely SA from the other girls perspective, so is this a believe women moment, or a "fuck wokeness" moment?
If you're doing a lot of work in C/C++/Rust consider using sccache to cache compilations. It's easy to set up and will save you a lot of time and a huge amount of power.
Anyone knowledgeable on #msx coding ( @reidrac ) know about the VDP acid test?
I find it hard to believe many games conform to this standard - an extra call and return per vdp register write at minimum seems absurd.
There are a couple things like this in the technical handbook that don't appear to have actually been implemented in practice, or abandoned in favor of better code.
