I just wonder if they’ll get out of it because LLMs do reword the information instead of spitting it back out verbatim. It’s the same reason I think the image generators are safe from copyright law - it’s just different enough that they could plausibly convince a judge with a fair use argument.
What bothers me even more is all the text they had to scrape to create ChatGPT… That seems like a novel problem for the legal system because you know there’s no way they paid for all of it.
One of my proudest moments as a child was beating this game. Incidentally, fighting the end boss was the first time my parents caught me swearing.
Yeah even to expand on that - they don’t understand that everything they don’t like about Biden, they’ll like about Trump less. I mean I have real serious gripes about Biden but it is insultingly stupid to pretend that Trump would be any kind of a solution to those problems.
I am in love with train travel but in the last years my local system has lost a step or two, to put it mildly. I’m seriously considering going back to more air travel, and I hate what the whole flying experience has become.
It used to be that one could spend three hours dealing with the airport experience plus an hour or two flying - or enjoy four or five relaxing hours on the train to somewhere, no garbage security checks, lines, etc. But nowadays on the train you’re almost guaranteed delays, cancellations, extra stopovers, etc., which means sometimes you’re not even sure on longer trips if you’ll make it home that day.
Obviously this cancels out any advantages of train travel aside from the environmental ones. And if you have someone like me, who like I said, absolutely loves traveling by train, considering going back to the airport - how are you going to convince the average person to ride instead of fly?
I’m sure it’s all the result of cost-cutting efforts but train companies desperately need to underderstand that what makes people more likely to ride are the things they’re choosing to sacrifice when they’re trying to cut costs.
I firmly believe train travel needs to be heavily subsidised and not run like a business. Leaders need to understand that it’s important infrastructure and enables business of all other sorts. Not unlike the highway system, which they do without batting an eye.
I’ve got 50 vigor and haven’t been one-shot by anything yet. Can’t say for sure about fragements ‘mostly’ locked behind bosses but I was quickly +4 just from wandering around the first map area. IMO they shouldn’t quote salty complaints like Flippikus’ because it waters down the real problems Fromsoft has and always had had porting their games to PC.
I love all their games and am a pretty big fanboy but also love PC gaming and it’s clear From is a console company. I think they’d just release on Playstation if it were up to them. But if they’re not going to resist the siren call of the PC money, they really should hire a team that knows what they’re doing. I know there’s some stereotypes that there aren’t great Japanese Windows devs - really don’t know if that’s true but even if it is, From is a AAA company with AAA sales and can afford proper devs for PC releases.
Trump and the fed jumped at every last opportunity to juice the economy from 2016-2020 and they’ll do it again if he gets elected again. He was really damn lucky he inherited a decent economy to do that with, and was followed up by a responsible administration to keep things in check. I could go on and on about this but in the end I’m really just hoping we come to our senses and elect leaders who are interested in keeping the ship steady instead of this chaotic feast/famine cycle we’ve been living through these past few decades.
