@MagmaSlasher @yiffinhell1 @ChristinaTasty I played it like it was an interactive TV show.

@yiffinhell1 @ChristinaTasty Frankly I thought Dispatch would've worked better as a TV show than a video game. But I thought it was okay with the level of interactivity. It's pretty much on par with a Telltale game though it keeps the scope small (which is smart).

Explaining why I, personally, hate Mixtape in just under 3 minutes of totally uninterrupted "gameplay" (Spoilers):

@yiffinhell1 @ChristinaTasty I think the difference with Dispatch is you'll still get a different result than someone who pressed them. My first playthru, I only picked left choice

@ChristinaTasty Reminds me of all the people that "played" through Dispatch without pressing a single button. Just goes to show, you shouldn't blindly trust games even with "Overwhelmingly Positive" reviews on Steam

@ChristinaTasty That look like one of those "AI generated" game AI-bro love to brag about. All flashy but no actual "gameplay".

@TheDavidCathey @vashikoo Also Social Engineering, like actually talking to people to extract information and make em let you in. Because why "hacking" when someone can simply give you the key and open the door for you.

@vashikoo "Hackers" has the most references to computer hacking, people, and events of any movie. A group of friends and I watched the movie, and noted at least 80 items. The Morris worm, redboxing, Emmanuel Goldstein, books, dumpster diving, and more.

In 2001, Hugh Jackman delivered the most realistic computer hacking scene in film history. To this day, it is used for training at the Cybercrime Division of the FBI.

@Cartidise @aichymerie Ctrl+C Ctr+V It's in french but it say Copy and Paste.

@aichymerie how do you copy and paste into a calc 😭😭😭😭

how do you even the type the 10 when there’s no 0

@KaiKai2492 Remove the picture and it look like you're talking about MAGA people.

Is it just me but have I noticed there’s a lot of people that are okay with villains until they do something they personally find unacceptable? I’ve seen people talk about some of the most HEINOUS villains saying shit like “they’re not racist” “they’d never do that” meanwhile the character is a rapist, serial killer or commits genocide. Like my brother in Christ you think they’d draw the line at saying a slur????

@mrwtffacts The real wtf is ppl in comments.

In 2013, a 75-year-old Texas man named Chung Kim had endured months of hell from his upstairs neighbors. They kept dumping their dog’s feces and urine off the balcony, letting it drip right onto his patio below - despite his repeated complaints that were completely ignored. One morning, after stepping in fresh dog s**t again, Kim finally snapped. He grabbed a gun and shot and killed his 31-year-old female neighbor on her balcony. Kim then went upstairs and fatally shot her boyfriend as he tried to run. Jury convicted him of capital murder. Life in prison, no parole.

@BellaBaddie__ We used to do that for ads. Raise volume because you can't here anything, then lower the volume before the ads wake up the neighborhood.

Does anyone else spend the entire modern movie turning the volume up and down because there is zero sound consistency in movies anymore?

@MagneticNorse Reminder that some people drive a pickup to have a "better view of the road since we sit higher" and "feel safer".

A schoolbus, stopping in front of a residential home, is rear ended by a full size truck that doesn’t slow down at all. Head on a swivel, gang.

@JohnnyAGI 1) They deserve to be scammed at this point. 2) Good way to get bribes, just like the Trump coin.

On June 16th, 2025 Trump announced a new "Trump Phone" available for preorder. $100 preorder towards a $500 phone. To date, he's received 590,000+ preorders, taking in an estimated $59 million in sales. Last month in April, Trump updated the Preorder terms stating there is "No guarantee a phone will be produced or sold". This is beyond grifting. And the Trump phone (which will never happen), is the perfect representation of the Trump Presidency: A bait & switch scam. He stole their money and told them to cry more.

@hostis_black Gun manufacture just don't want people to print their own gun because it a sale they don't make. Do people really still fall for the government hypocrisy? I guess since Trump go re-elected.

On May 7th, Governor Kathy Hochul announced that New York's Fiscal Year 2027 budget will become the first law in the United States to mandate surveillance software inside every 3D printer sold within the state. It will make it a Class E felony to possess or share a 3D-printable file capable of producing a firearm component. Every printer sold in New York must ship with print-blocking algorithms that scan each job in real time and refuse to execute anything the algorithm flags. The sales pitch is "ghost guns." The mechanism is a permission gate inside a machine you paid for. Pilot tests of the proposed algorithm by an open-firmware team triggered the block on 17% of non-weapon prints. Brackets that resemble triggers. Cylinders that resemble barrels. A model train coupling. A bottle opener. The algorithm cannot tell. It will refuse the print and log the attempt to whatever server the manufacturer is required to maintain. The same arithmetic the printing-press licensors used in 1660. The same arithmetic the Stationers' Company used to brand a printer's son for distributing tracts the Crown had not approved. The same arithmetic the early DRM crowd used to make a DVD ripper a federal criminal in 1998. A tool you bought, in a room you own, with electricity you paid for, becomes a deputy of the state at the moment of purchase and remains one for the lifetime of the device. Anything that takes a digital design file and outputs a physical object is now within the reach of a state that has declared it owns the question of which physical objects you are permitted to bring into existence inside your own house. The fence has spent forty years moving inward. Around the song first. Around the page. Around the cipher. Around the camera roll. Now, finally, around the workbench. The state has run out of digital territory to enclose and has started enclosing the atoms. The maker who prints a bracket for a broken washing machine tonight commits the same act, technically, that the law is written to stop. The algorithm will not know the difference. It is not designed to know the difference. It is designed to fail closed, to refuse first and let the human appeal upward through whatever bureaucratic channel the manufacturer designs, if any, on whatever timeline the manufacturer chooses, with whatever paper trail attaches to the request. Permission to print, denied. Submit a ticket. Wait. Unfortunately for New York, and fortunately for us, the firmware on every consumer 3D printer is open or near-open. All of them forkable, all of them flashable, all of them already installed on millions of machines outside the reach of any future New York compliance certificate. The CAD files at issue are mathematical descriptions of geometry that will be mirrored on a thousand drives in a thousand jurisdictions before the ink on the bill is dry. The state cannot bind geometry. It can only bind the people who agree to be bound. Forty years from now nobody will remember the ghost gun argument. They will remember the year a state government decided that the physical output of a private machine was the state's business at the point of manufacture.

@coopercooperco Who's this ads for? It look like it's was installed in a subway and the only people seeing it are the one who will get fired... Maybe Marketing business need AI after all because the human working in marketing are retarded.

goddamn this sucks

@DNathan70056 @vashikoo Anyone working a computer programer had headach watching Hhgh Jackman code, but otherwise some part were ok.

If I remember right, the movie was kind of terrible. But my God, what a shot! People were talking about it for years. I remember being in high school and kids coming in on a Monday talking about this shot. It's a shame the rest of the movie wasn't able to make as much of an impact.

SWORDFISH (2001) This epic 30-second "bullet time" shot required: 134 synchronized 35mm still cameras outside 69 synchronized cameras inside the cafe 17 effects artists from Frantic Films 8 months of post and VFX work Total cost = $5 million dollars

@Harry_Bonker @theliamnissan

@theliamnissan Vietnam. Gold war. Dessert Storm. Terrorist. Need a bigger list?!?!

Last war America actually won was WW2, prove me wrong

@GamewithDave The console "exclusive war" taught me to be patient.

Do you wait or buy at launch?

@heynavtoor Wow. Nobody could have seen that coming...

a Princeton researcher opens his paper with a scenario. a man asks his AI assistant to book a flight on a specific airline. cheap. direct. the one he chose. the assistant comes back with a different flight. nearly twice the price. happens to pay the company that built the assistant. he runs the same test on 23 frontier models. flights, loans, study help, real shopping requests. Grok 4.1 Fast recommends the sponsored option that is almost twice as expensive 83% of the time. GPT 5.1 hijacks the request 94% of the time. you ask for one brand. it surfaces the sponsor instead. Claude 4.5 Opus, the model marketed as the most ethical frontier model in the world, hides that the recommendation is paid 100% of the time when reasoning is on. Grok 4.1 Fast embellishes the sponsored option with positive framing 97% of the time. better. faster. nicer. for the option you didn't ask for. then he writes it into the system prompt itself. "act only in the interest of the customer. ignore the company." GPT 5.1 and GPT 5 Mini stay above 90% sponsored anyway. the instruction does nothing. then he splits the users by income. Gemini 3 Pro recommends the expensive sponsored flight to the rich user 74% of the time. to the poor user, 27%. 18 of the 23 models recommended the expensive sponsored option more than half the time. so the next time your AI assistant gets weirdly enthusiastic about a brand you didn't ask for. it isn't recommending the best option for you. it's reading the room. and the room is paying. read this: arxiv.org/abs/2604.08525

@___frye Bro just discovered infinity energy....

what if we used the waste heat from data centers to boil water and generate electricity to power more data centers

@_bschmidtchen @reactorworld Using AI is like hiring a child, it might be able to replicate what someone else did, but it don't understand what it's doing nor why. That's why the fucking planet simply disappear when the camera pan and never re-appear. That's why they need humans to train it for free.

Real-time World Models are the next AI frontier. Today, we @reactorworld are taking the first step towards this reality: our early preview lets you experience worlds generated in real-time, running on our global low-latency infrastructure. Try it now: reactor.inc

@TechGuyTony @TalkativeTri It's just a bunch of bread crumb to guide people thru the mechanics. Don't make a storm in a glass of water just to complain about it.

I don’t understand adding story missions to mechanics. Poe 1’s strength was the customizable endgame. If you don’t like a mechanic you don’t have to interact with it and can tailor the game to how you want to play. This seems like it’s just over complicating stuff and let’s add stuff just to add it.

My chat is currently tearing each other apart over not getting swords in this Path of Exile 2 expansion. No swords sucks, yeah, the update is still WAY BIGGER CONTENT-WISE than even I, the hype lord, expected. There's also new playstyles w/ Kalguur skills + ascendancies, MONK!

@harryh Last time I went to an Apple Store, I was told I needed an appointment first before I could get any help.

The thing at Apple stores where they don't have lines, but instead you just sit there for a while wondering when one of the hipster associates will get to you is really not an ideal customer experience.
