it would be funny though. They shouldn’t do it, but it would be funny if they did.

it’s almost like these 2 companies have wildly different practices regarding how they treat their customers and business partners.

a user friendly user interface is one that the user is already familiar with. It is subjective, determined by the user, and will vary from user to user.

Think about the placement of face buttons for an xbox controller vs a ninttendo switch controller, specifically A and B. The function of menu accept is always on a, and menu back is always on b, but the physical placement of those buttons are opposite on the competing platform. Now think about a playstation controller, and where it puts menu accept and menu back. The glyphs are different, but a nintendo player will find it intuitive while the xbox player will be confused.

if nintendo actually did it, I’d expect them to fuck it up in the most nonsensical and uniquely nintendo way possible.

AAAA cringe.

If I buy something, decide I don’t want it anymore, I can refund it within 2 hours of playtime or 24 hours of purchase (I might have the exact numbers wrong, but whatever). I’ve only ever used this a couple of times, but this is a reasonable expectation if you think of a video game as a product that you purchase much like any other product. I’ve never had problems with refunds, ever.

One time I bought a game on nintendo switch, and discovered that I couldn’t play it because it required joycons and I didn’t have any of those. I attempted to refund the game, but nintendo won’t let you refund a game if you’ve downloaded it.

I still buy games on steam. My switch though, I gave that away.

After my group broke up, I tried using gpt as a player in one of my campaigns. It was like playing with a young child who didn’t understand the different roles of player and dm. That experiment didn’t last very long.

in my use case, the hallucinations are a good thing. I write fiction, in a fictional setting that will probably never actually become a book. If i like what gpt makes up, I might keep it.

Usually, I’ll have a conversation going into detail about a subject, this is me explaining the subject to gpt, then having gpt summarize everything it learned about the subject. I then plug that summary into my wiki of lore that nobody will ever see. Then move on to the next subject. Also gpt can identify potential connections between subjects that I didn’t think about, and wouldn’t have if it didn’t hallucinate them.

fuck yeah. does chaos mod still work? I miss a good grappling hook.

Damn. The thought-police are out in force in this thread, and are completely unable to separate fiction from reality.

holy shit does that look like a lot of money for not a lot of machine.

that’s as modern as I’m willing to tolerate in a car. If it has a touch screen, then I’m personally offended and whomever designed that vehicle should be flogged.

I’m ok with needing to keep an 8track collection instead of CDs if it means that my car won’t report my every sneeze to Ford or whothefuckever.

+1 for the creative punishment of idiots.

If I find any degree of success, then absolutely I will hire real humans to help me with my vision.

sadly, I have a moral compass. I’m not sure where I put the damn thing, but I have one.

that sounds fuckin’ nice.

I’ve been begging for such buttons since fucking 2009, and everyone laughed at me for wanting customizable controls.

Look who’s laughing now. (it’s me, with my mouse and keyboard and lack of friends and I never need to touch a controller again!)

I envy your guts. I wish mine were as good as yours.

I did not come to sit and wonder

I have come to SHIT LIKE THUNDER!
