Maybe I'm missing something, because despite the start menu being an absolute mess, I've not experienced it being slow

Well when you have a black box such as claude, the best you can do is ask it for its own interpretation. Anything else would just be a guess

Well it'll probably get locked because it's not really hacker news content

Remember the rule of thumb. "If it's covered on TV news, then it's probably off-topic"

Damn I haven't seen a Bill Gates conspiracy theory in a long time. What a throwback

I'm assuming it already falls under rules 2 and 5, content manipulation and deceptive interactions

Jesus, you're not wrong. Click any random month from the last 20 years and there's a post from practically every day

AI has seen how much humans lap up content that is #relatable and started acting like that

You may have better success by using a less ambiguous term. I've never heard of grounding in this context, so it may help to describe what you want more clearly

Edit: I just asked Claude how it would interpret that and it said it could either mean that would not answer from memory alone and only anchor claims into things it can check, or it would tightly relate its responses to the context that I had supplied.

If it chose the latter, I could see why it wouldn't always resort to search results

Unfortunately a couple of small start ups isn't enough to carry the industry. Even big players like Valve who have more money in the bank to take a hit couldn't bring their headset in below $1000

I think VR would be completely dead by now if Meta weren't continuing to lose billions every quarter on it. Not many companies can endless sink that much money into a product

Trolley tokens for me. I just keep a couple of quid in my car for supermarkets that need a coin for the trolley

If anything goes wrong with telecoms, no-one will be able to take money out of a cash machine anyway

How do you not think banking apps are useful?

And especially treating political parties like sports teams that must defeat the other, regardless of whether it's in the best interest of the country

Ancient to me means like OSX Tiger

If the AI is drawing from multiple sources, I can understand the logic

Only 600 capacity? This wouldn't even make the news if it hadn't been apple

Because it would be incredibly expensive for such small production runs (not to mention the cost of shipping)

As a retro gamer I think the people worrying about pixel blurring is overblown. I think a lot fewer artists actually intentionally used it than these articles make out

There's a reason it always comes back to the same few examples, peach hanging from a rope, dracula's eyes, sonic behind the waterfall. If it were used as widely as some people make out then we wouldn't have to keep resorting to the same 3 examples.

That and CRTs stopped being so blurry over the years anyway (especially PC CRTs), so by the time you reached the 16 bit era you couldn't rely on a blurry TV to create your effect

I read it more as a contract issue rather than a technical issue

> I’m begging everyone to stop freaking out over prosaic non-issues like this.

This fight was lost at least a decade ago. Everything must now be a constant source of outrage

Are you lost?

Surely this is anti-anti-privacy?

> The game received "favorable" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[26] In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of 33 out of 40.[29] Nintendo Power gave it a favorable review while the game was still in development.[37] Vicious Sid of GamePro said, "Beneath Ogre Battle 64's intimidating interface and plodding pace lies a wealth of strategy: If you choose to enlist, be sure to pack plenty of patience."[40][d]

> The game won the award for "Best Strategy Game" at GameSpot's Best and Worst of 2000 Awards,[41] and was nominated for the "Best Game No One Played" award, which went to Samba de Amigo. The staff noted that the game's sales had "fallen prey to [its] console of origin, the N64."[42] The game was also nominated for the "Best Console Strategy Game" and "Gamers' Choice: N64" awards at The Electric Playground's Blister Awards 2000, both of which went to Front Mission 3 and Perfect Dark, respectively.[43][44]

> It was rated the 111th best game made on a Nintendo System in Nintendo Power's Top 200 Games list.[45] Reviewing the Virtual Console re-release, IGN said that it "was (and still is) lordly indeed".[34]

> In 2023, Time Extension included the game on their "Best Nintendo 64 Games of All Time" list.[46]

Sounds like it was received well even if it didn't sell well

They want an artisanal, hand-crafted decomp just like grandma used to make

This is what I meant by weaponisation of outrage. The media got people so riled up about things that didn't really affect them so that they eventually felt like the EU didn't represent them.

Fishing being the obvious example. I'd never seen many people care about fishing rights until it was suddenly a hot topic leading up to the vote, but suddenly people really cared about what was happening around the scottish coastline

People spending nothing funds terrorism

Depopulation isn't necessarily suffering

It's good to know you've learnt something!

I know nothing about dinosaurs, so if you had told me that their blood was 97°C then I would've believed you
