A “public company” is one that has shares that are publicly traded. Common terminology, but yes it is confusing compared to private vs state ownership.
Edit: you’re right though, using “privatisation” is doubly confusing… That’s not so common. Perhaps that’s what you meant!
Seriously cool piece of kit! I have no use for it whatsoever, but can’t help but wish I did.
Ya my little bro is the same. He’ll announce some thing he’s learned and it collapses under the barest scrutiny… I only hope that the rest of us are able to teach him to apply that scrutiny himself. It’s pretty scary how kids just accept shit, if you take that into adulthood… Well, I think we see the results all around us in the world.
Oh man, frog fractions! Been a long time but that is an experience I will never forget.
That seems like it’s only a good thing! Have fun, save cash, I’m jealous haha!
I kinda wish I had. Maybe I still will… 50 hours in I finally got my first escape and I now find I’m struggling to go back to it because it just keeps getting harder lmao. I just wanna tell Dusa how great she is.
Yeah I don’t get it either. Everything is random to the point of being the same… I try again every now and then to see if my opinion has changed. But, well, not yet.
Yeah it would be nice to see more of the methodology & the raw data tbh, kind of a shame they’ve left it a bit of a black box.
A sample of 8 million cars is more than enough to be representative.
Automation should be a good thing. If we can have things that need to happen be done more efficiently with less work we absolutely should. But we should distribute the results of those efficiency gains fairly, which is where the current system fails.
Then who’s coming up with all the bits that I copy/paste off the internet? The regex dragon?
yhwh looking suspiciously like an LLM
I gotta agree, I tried 4 or 5 times and just never got into it. Doesn’t help that I’m not great at party RPGs, but yeah the story was slow and I remember being unimpressed with the dialogue options… It always felt like you were kinda pushed towards and inevitable outcome rather than really influencing things.
Oooof. I feel like trying to figure out what’s wrong with some regex I didn’t write is much harder than writing it myself personally.
I don’t think that making a selfish in game decision means the player is selfish. You might just be curious about how the story pans out. Maybe you want to do it both ways. I’ve played thieves and murderers in RPGs, I’ve lied and cheated my way out of situations, I’ve blown up Megaton… But these don’t really reflect my real self. I’ve often done the opposite, too.
This one was wild:
In an example they uncovered, a speaker said, “He, the boy, was going to, I’m not sure exactly, take the umbrella.”
But the transcription software added: “He took a big piece of a cross, a teeny, small piece … I’m sure he didn’t have a terror knife so he killed a number of people.”
From picking up and object to mass murder lmao. Not even close!
Huh. I had no idea you could play it in VR. Doesn’t really seem like a game which would be at all enjoyable in VR tbh, too much movement - especially vertical and sudden. I do not enjoy the idea of facing a creeper in person lol
“Lovercraftian” is a fun typo. I’m imagining developing a casual fwb relationship with Azathoth. Taking Cthulhu for a long walk on the beaches around R’lyeh…
Yo ho ho, I wouldn’t know
Wait, there’s something scrawled on the corner down here in crayon…
