  • For older ones I think you’ll find more plentiful on pc since consoles were both more expensive for an indie to develop for and less likely to print physical media games from an unknown person or team.

    PS1 and PS2 had plenty of low budget titles, the first thanks mainly to the Net Yaroze console. Sure, you still had to get the OK from Sony, but the market was also significantly larger than any PC.

  • Funny, you’d expect this kind of thing to only be considered “a hit” if interest lasts more than a month, but gotta keep that bubble rolling, eh?

    He expects more people to gravitate to AI shopping agents like Muse as they look to hand off cumbersome tasks, such as comparing deals across sites and tracking down products.

    Because that was clearly impossible without AI. /s

    In another sign of Muse’s growing relevance, Amazon confirmed to CBS News that it has blocked the AI app from shopping on its e-commerce platform, citing security and user experience concerns.

    Less “relevance” and more “fucking bots eating our bandwidth”

    When it comes to shopping, the benefit for customers isn’t just saving time; it’s also about helping them find deals, Mercer said.

    THANK GOD SUCKBERG WOULD NEVER USE A BLACK BOX LIKE THAT TO PUSH BULLSHIT “BEST OFFERS” FOR THE HIGHEST BIDDER, RIGHT? RIGHT???

    “People are still a little bit nervous about allowing AI agents to do the purchasing on their behalf,”

    Noooooooo, you should totally trust AI with your credit card and bank info! Trust big brother!

  • AI does everything 20000 times better than I ever will

    I find it hard to believe that AI throwing pointers and references at random counts as “20000 times better” than anything.

    Besides, saying that means that you fell for the worst trap, of believing that everything it does is flawless. It’s not. You’re in uni, so you don’t really have experience in ordering people around, which is what fucking around with AI is - you give an order and wait for a result. If you trust 100% of the end result, the problem is you.

    AI is great at stuff you don’t know about, because when you do know about it, you’ll notice errors and mistakes, making you realize you cannot trust it.

Found this channel, Threat Interactive, some time ago and have been watching the videos. He uses debugging tools to go step by step on how each frame is generated, explaining bottlenecks, things that reduce performance (like computing some stuff more than once, out of order, etc) and things that make the final frame look bad (usually bad anti aliasing)

The dude gets very mad about the state of current games’ pipelines, mainly due to how Unreal and Nvidia have fucked things over for their profit - and really, when we take graphics from today and compare with games from 2016, it’s easy to see downgrades in quality AND performance.
