    Everything you all are saying can happen in regular relationships too. A person willing to choose an AI likely isn’t going to be great at choosing an actual human who is good for them.

    In a relationship, the other person could also be manipulative, or it could be one sided, or they can pressure you to only live certain ways, buy certain things. Or they can backstab you and give your private info to others (family that took my SS info from my parents), or pawn your shit, or cheat on you with others. Like everything negative that might come from this could potentially happen in some remotely similar way in a human relationship too.

    I’ve been in and seen others in all kind of relationships that in some ways had these similar negative outcomes.

    When a team of programmers is left to their own devices, they too screw shit up. They all do things in their own way and argue over what is best, and often fail to see the bigger picture.

    I watch scope creep and lack of organizational planning from both programmers and managers. It’s all personality issues.

    I also don’t believe anyone actually follows or knows what agile is (not saying I do either). Everyone on every team at every place sure talks about it, but it doesn’t seem like anyone actually does it. These are all just labels for “we adapted as we went.”




  • I use both very often. Especially as a custom menu for emulator settings, or in older PC games or games with a lot of Keyboard/Mouse controls, they help me make things far more comfortable with various custom popup menus, or sometimes jumping to a mouse region to select UI options while playing. They are also helpful for games with horrid controls/hotkeys that won’t fitnon a traditional amount of controller buttons. They also help with mouse precision when an analog stick won’t do.

    I also use the back buttons a lot. I use the entire Steam Deck and the custom controller settings are basically a necessity.









  • A long time ago, I read one of their developers say you require the original games since the mod is specifically designed not to re-provide you with any copyright material from either game, and in fact I think it’ll look for and use the files you have like any other mod.

    This was done on purpose so they can never worry about being shut down or sued if they ensure they never wrongly re-use or provide copyrighted materials. Probably a smart move for such a massive undertaking.
