I imagine it’s because all of these technologies combine to make a sci-fi-esque computer assistant that talks to you, and most pop culture depictions of AI are just computer assistants that talk to you. The language already existed before the technology, it already took root before we got the chance to call it anything else.

This isn’t even a good photoshop, it looks like it was made in snapchat

Yeah I was going to choose the sleep mask until I saw the coin. If everything goes my way then I effectively have the powers of the glasses and the frying pan, plus unlimited luxury from lotteries, discoveries, opportunities, etc. The cooldown needs to be nerfed, or maybe add a negative debuff to the tails side.

I just want to generate cool d&d scenes, but it REALLY does not like it when you input “dwarves fighting”

it still means throw but it is also phonetically close to saying “ye” (as in enthusiastically saying yes with a long ‘e’ but not finishing the word) so people use it as such

I understand all of these, but now there are even newer ones that I cannot fathom

Clunky but still fun. It ends up being a mostly mouse-based UI if you’re like me and constantly forget which deck button is mapped to which hotkey (it doesn’t help that there are 3x as many hotkeys as there are steam deck buttons), and you’re going to want to use the trackpad as your mouse. As a result I ended up feeling a lot of strain in my right hand while playing in handheld mode just from the sheer amount of APM my poor thumb was burdened with while the rest of my right hand was supporting the weight of the deck. The game runs like a dream though.

I do this, but I like to respond with a loud and sudden “WHAT” which is probably less funny and more obnoxious but it usually gets a laugh

best we can do is release 1 new animal per year that does nothing (out of 3 options we present to you, you’ll never see the other 2 tho) and one new cosmetic block that does nothing. but maybe if you ask nicely we’ll spend all year making the sky box taller. we’re a small indie dev pls understand

microsoft money? sorry we spent it all creating a microtransaction store for dance emotes

I don’t remember the name, but it was some Samsung phone with a relatively low resolution touch screen and a slide out keyboard. I got so good at texting with the slide out keyboard, god I miss those.

Was that knight planning on just charging head first into what he perceived to be a stone castle wall?

Monster Hunter Rise + DLC for me and qt gf. 60% off and runs like a dream! 60 fps with default settings.

Fuck me what a horrifying/exciting time to be a computer science student. I feel like I’m either going to be obsolete by the time I’m handed a degree or my job will basically be doodling and asking a robot butler to do everything for me.

Chromebooks are pretty cheap, and basically made for college students to take notes and watch youtube. You can dual boot linux on them pretty easy.

Genuine question for the homies who have played Spider-Man 2: did they write Miles to be any more interesting? I liked Spider-Man 1 Peter’s dialogue and jokes, like, a lot. I enjoyed playing as Miles in his own game, but I thought the character was boring, just, so so boring. Especially in contrast to Spiderverse’s version of Miles. I haven’t bought 2 yet, is Miles more fun to listen to this time? Could I enjoy Spider-Man 3 as a full Miles game if I thought that the Spider-Man: Miles Morales game had a disappointing protagonist?

Yeah, I’m the other 50%

In a fit of nostalgia I bought Yugioh: Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution. I watched the original show as a kid and played the game at recess, but never went any further than that. The game was on sale for a couple bucks on steam.

I gotta say, this is a great amount of content for the price (again, I bought it for like 5 bucks). You can play through the show’s storyline (every season) with all of their dumb little decks, and after every duel, you unlock a “reverse duel” where you can do the same fight but from the antagonist’s perspective. If you complete all of the duels involving a particular character, you unlock their “challenge duel” where they use a themed meta deck with actual combos and interesting win conditions. Because this game has every season of the TV show, there’s at least a hundred different characters you can fight like this. Every time you win a duel you get some of your opponent’s cards and money to make your own custom deck. The online is dead though, which is fine, I’m just playing this to relive my childhood watching the show.

I’ve been kinda hooked, even though I haven’t been a Yugioh fan since 4th grade. I feel like a kid again. I just wish the Pokemon TCG or Magic: the Gathering had a modern game with a story mode like this.

naw I’d say Drax, Starlord maybe, and Hulk if he was in Hulk mode are all written to be comically stupid

but yeah that’s probably it, most would survive

I think that the motive should be allowed to be dumb, and their mistake was making Thanos appear lucid and competent. They really should have leaned into “the mad titan” thing and made him act more like an unhinged despot.

I’m gonna make my own (thing)! With blackjack! And hookers!.. In fact, forget the (thing)!

it can be used in so many contexts and the last line usually gets a laugh.
