This one uses generative AI to “add details” instead of just adding pixels for more resolution. It can decide what a character “should” look like pushing a more homogeneous design to anyone using this since it will be built in training models of who knows what origin.

I am excited about new GIMP and somehow still exhausted with current GIMP

Mint yes, Ubuntu no. It really is not easy to not be able to install applications with nothing but command line

I forgot that I had it running and was just jamming. Then I also forgot it was a demo and the game literally has a timid character come up to you and tell you that you overstayed your welcome but they won’t tell you to leave… Then the UI says it doesnt have the same concerns and boots you from the game.

Just a whole lot of fun!

I am hugely excited for Titanium Court.
The music and gameplay loop was great.

2nd is Forbidden Solitaire
3rd is Everything is Crab

I could not get into Darwin’s Paradox or Reanimal which were heavily marketed.

I played a shocking amount of demos this nextfest and had a pretty great time.

China out here with scripted robots that while not super useful can show off the limits of our technology in impressive ways.

America. Back to slavery but with a metal exterior

They were going for a drunken master motif so… Yeah probably. Which is bold to expect so few flaws that you put in a purposeful one to joke about.

That’s batshit and such a newgrounds thing to do to make mutated incestuous cats voiced by terrible people.

Definitely weird, hard to say if it is in good taste or bad. Very Edmund level of fucked up.

Don’t fake it. Be honest.

I dunno, that has been what I have been doing and nothing kills the light in their eyes like honesty.

Oh then you haven’t even had it long enough to hate it cause an update has wiped out wifi for some reason.
But yeah actually the fricking snap store sucks more day to day. I have no idea what it does if I have to use command line the whole time I haven’t found out how to update apps otherwise.

But no, so, I think we are both like 10+ years behind “usable” linux. Cause I am seeing so many people talk about mint or bazzite. I think we are just like on the jalopy of Linux. Old, and gets the job done but not the new hotness.

I think we both chose wrong with Ubuntu. Nothing but problems as well but people I know on bazzite have never once complained about things breaking the way it does for me on Ubuntu.

Yeah, honestly this is a fantastic ad campaign for them and they are in fact getting rewarded for towing that line by getting the conversation on them.

They made an art piece that tows the line in the minefield so hard that it is causing explosions when people try to follow along…

Yeah ok, so sounds like they accomplished their goal in the art sense and just won’t get the wide audience and monetary rewards for making an art piece that hurt people.

I see nothing wrong here.

Its one of like 3 brands you can buy at phone stores in the US.
The other is Samsung and the last one is usually Motorola’s old people or discount phones.

No shit when it’s treated like the default option for most people.

Americans knew who he was, witnessed the same January 6th I did, and elected to restore that guy to office

He’s just so passionate! Him and his followers were just upset he lost because he was doing so good, and he gave up eventually. Don’t you want a passionate president rather than a sleepy one? Plus he will be hard on all the immigrants who must be responsible for me struggling to find a job and he will negotiate prices down, haven’t you heard? He’s a good negotiator he has a whole book and everything. Has to be better than Biden and his random girl telling me that everything is fine and they won’t do anything to help me.

I get being in disbelief, and being upset but people don’t know what they don’t know and it isn’t that shocking to see how they came to the conclusions that it HAD to be better.
Humans, while very clever, are emotionally dumb as fuck.

Its fun that they admit that they don’t know the math behind why it picks the paths it does.

We are essentially having to learn our world all over again and these tools that can recognize patterns are gonna be helpful for that but it will still be on humans to figure out the why

That is pretty obvious, what’s really wild about this blog post and proof that we need off social media was that AI generated Gavin Newsom post with Ted Cruz and Hulk Hogan.

The Olive Garden app, cause when you are on it, you are family.

But no, I disagree that we’d have all come together and just solved everything with a different “central” app. Though I guess a government version of Twitter where everyone gets a login and every company has to have a support arm for making announcements and allowing the government to make them too would be helpful like it was and still sometimes is.

So i dont see Sonic Racing mentioned much.

Its one of the other things i use to relax after Silk Song and i find it really interesting. Its not a clone of mario kart in that each car legit feels like it drives differently. And you have to play smart but can also play wildly because of the insane items and shortcuts.

I think it reminds me of Gran Turismo but with mario kart items. And Sonic music. I dont know if i just wanted something different and i am giving it more credit.

I have been procrastinating and exploring every nook and cranny of that world. Its amazing how much it feels real and lived in. Like they have the whole thing figured out down to why some screws are more rusted than others.

I am so reluctant to start act 3 cause i already struggled with the first funeral. Its gonna break me i just know it.
