gum.co/gryph I've decided to reduce the base price of the gryphon avatar to 10$. - and if that still feels like too much, try coupon code "FREEBIRD". Enjoy!

@dadragontype2 we didnt get a flying type eeveelution a few years back because a fan design was too close to what they designed. this is confirmed by internal email leaks.

I’m cooking something to help game freak, worry not ☝️

@archeohistories Lazy blatant genAI trash, both the text and the image.

You might have heard that the Romans built special rooms called vomitoriums where they would go to vomit between courses so they could keep eating. History teachers have said it. The History Channel documentary has implied it. The Hunger Games built an entire civilization around it. There is just one problem: It is completely made up and the actual truth is both more interesting and considerably weirder. A vomitorium was real. It was just not what anyone thinks it was. The word first appears in the writing of a fifth century author named Macrobius, who used it to describe the passageways beneath the seats of Roman amphitheaters, the corridors that spewed tens of thousands of spectators out into the streets after a performance. The Colosseum had 76 of them, so efficiently designed that 50,000 people could reach their seats in under 15 minutes. Macrobius coined the word from the Latin vomere, meaning to spew forth, because he thought the image of a crowd erupting from a corridor looked like something being disgorged. It was an architectural metaphor about crowd flow, not a dining room feature, and no ancient Roman source, not a single one, ever uses the word to describe a place where people went to purge their dinner. So where did the myth come from. The most likely answer is a French journalist named Felix Pyat, who wrote in 1871 about a Christmas feast being a gross Roman orgy in which the vomitorium was not wanting. By that point the linguistic confusion between the architectural term and the act of vomiting had already taken root, and the image of decadent Romans emptying their stomachs between courses was simply too vivid and too satisfying to correct. Aldous Huxley used it wrong in a 1923 novel. Will Durant repeated it in his influential history of civilization. Hollywood ran with it and never looked back. But here is the part that complicates the clean myth bust. Some Romans actually did vomit at banquets, and Seneca, the Stoic philosopher who had every reason to exaggerate Roman excess, wrote about it directly. In a letter he described watching slaves clean up vomit at Roman banquets, and in his Letter to Helvia he summarized what he saw as the depths of Roman gluttony in one line: they vomit so they may eat, and eat so that they may vomit. The Emperor Vitellius, who ruled for eight chaotic months in 69 AD, was documented vomiting between meals. The Emperor Hadrian reportedly used a feather to clear his stomach after overeating. These were real accounts about real people, but they were accounts about extreme excess at the very top of Roman society, not standard dinner party behavior, and Seneca was a Stoic moralist writing with an agenda, not a dining room correspondent filing a neutral report. The truth is somewhere in the middle and it is exactly what makes Rome fascinating. The dedicated vomit room with the feather and the basin never existed and no ancient source ever describes one. But the Romans who could afford to eat like emperors sometimes behaved like emperors, and the line between a metaphor about moral decay and a literal description of what happened in a triclinium on a Tuesday night is harder to draw than most myth bust articles want to admit. © Eats History #archaeohistories

@Shadowth117 it may be worth mentioning, it mostly works- the custom armature and material both work. it's only the skinned mesh reference still using the original character and not the custom.

@Zarphus Huh, admittedly I was trying this for a full custom character and not for skins. Not sure right this second though definitely a full custom character should work.

Made a fix for the Megabonk Custom Character Loader and compiled and tested versions for Melon Loader and BepinEx. I also put in a PR to the original repo for a fix. I recommend using his when he gets around to it, but for now mine works. github.com/Shadowth117/ME…

@ToonamiNews The finale aired march 15th. Why would you make a post on march 22 implying the finale is upcoming? Youre literally lying to make people tune in for a new episode that doesnt exist.

The end of the journey. The Season 3 finale of #Primal #Toonami

3D Modeling is art. Gamedev is art. Drawing is art. Character design is art. Music is art. AI is not art and has no place in art.

@LoganPaul i block genAI users. i mean i also block shitty people in general, so idk why i didnt block you yet.

Gengar is the perfect Pokémon. He’s essential to every trainer’s starting 6, with a versatile and unpredictable moveset. If he’s taken damage? Hypnosis —> Dream Eater will put your opponent to sleep, suck their HP, and replenish yours. With the right trainer, he can’t be killed. Not to mention he’s immune to normal, fighting, and ground-type moves, rendering even the strongest Pokémon like Machamp absolutely useless. Beyond his obvious tactical advantages, Gengar’s aesthetic is big and menacing, but at the same time, virtually nonexistent — a ghost with a grin. He’s dark purple, which represents luxury, power, wisdom, and… mystery. Gengar is shrouded in lore, rumored to be Clefable’s shadow. Nicknamed the “trickster entity,” his presence is marked by a sudden drop in temperature. He’s literally “chill af” Oh and the only way to get Gengar was with a link cable & a homie (through a trade). His evolution wasn’t possible through level-grinding, only kinship. Gengar is king

@Y2John84 and the crappy AI upscaling X does makes the already digitally compressed video look like trash. :(

This was made in 1979.

@pcgamer (also games should pay royalties like movies do)

@pcgamer games dont even pay royalties like movies do. comparitively, VA's for games are crazy cheap. there's literally no reason not to hire real people to do the voices for games.

Leon Kennedy's voice actor doesn't believe AI can replace human performances, and paying 'for an actor's voice session is not that big of a deal' for games as big as Arc Raiders pcgamer.com/games/resident…

@CavanCapri better than AI, goes hard, and i vibe with it. A+

girlfriend’s professor told the class to make an ad with ai so she made this instead

@bad_dragon @cultofthelamb oh no mommy and daddy are fighting again

@cultofthelamb Sadly, you'll have to take down Bad Dragon to win that auction.

25k likes and we'll buy this. not joking

@Pirat_Nation Allowing them to patent this concept will lock other developers out of using similar ideas for decades, And it sounds similar to things other games already do.

Sony has patented a "soft pause" system for video games. Instead of fully stopping gameplay, pressing pause, slows time, lowers difficulty, adds assists like auto-aim, or reduces audio/visual intensity. The game keeps running normally for other players in multiplayer. "A method for performing a soft pause of a video game... changing the execution from normal mode to soft pause mode, where soft pause mode continues execution with changes to reduce gameplay intensity."

@cheewalcott @Crazymoments01 to be clear nearly ALL of their videos are AI generated. maybe just block them.

@Crazymoments01 for a second there i thought it was going to get jiggy with the photographer

Unexpected happened too close the big lizard 🤯

@cheewalcott @Crazymoments01 it wouldnt do that, because the AI they used to generate the video is told to avoid such things.

@RinoTheBouncer battleborn, auto assault

What game(s) would those be?🚀

@SteinerWaffen @caydeplanet your Artifical Intelligence is no match for my Natural Stupidity.

@caydeplanet Nice! what AI model do you use?

I made an oil painting of Battlefield 1

@Dexerto dead internet theory becoming real, and forced.

Meta has patented AI that can run a dead person's account, continuing to post and chat on their behalf It can message and video call by replicating a user's online behavior using their past data

@Mikehomeseller initially i thought the external shots were 3d renders, but it turns out these images were made with google AI. no such building exists.

An abandoned bucket-shaped fast food restaurant hidden outside Dayton, Ohio. Closed in 2021 after financial collapse, the entire building was left untouched — from the dining area to the basement storage rooms. A forgotten piece of fast-food history frozen in time. Anyone ever eat there when it was open? #mikesquestions

@fleshsimulator start with clicker training, the rest will fall into place.

PET-GF? Buddy, I can’t even get her to put the ears on!
