Nice, I might finally learn how to read kana, at least the katakana version.

Are vocabulary and kanji already working?

muskrat loves his x-rated shit publicly visible to everyone

his fund, Scion Asset Management, bought $187.6 million in puts on Nvidia and $912 million in puts on Palantir (…) Palantir’s market cap is also up over 150 percent year-to-date. Its current valuation is upwards of 200 times its forward earnings, spreading fears that it may be grossly overvalued.

He knows which one is more likely to get really fucked in this bubble and it’s not the shovel seller

Burry similarly made a long-term $1 billion bet from 2005 onwards against the US mortgage market, anticipating its collapse.

Can we assume his puts aren’t for 2026, but at least 2028 or later?

As CNN points out, Burry’s track record isn’t perfect. For instance, he called in January 2023 to “sell” in a now infamous tweet

Something something irrational solvent something

Palantir CEO Alex Karp: “The two companies he’s shorting are the ones making all the money,”

One of the companies is making all the money and it’s not Palantir.

To be fair, mastodon does have a problem of discoverability. Your shit isn’t automatically publicly federated to other instances, even when someone from said instance is following and interacting with you. IE: your account on mas.to received a comment and was retooted by someone on to.mas. Other accounts on to.mas that check their public timeline won’t necessarily see that original mas.to toot.

I guess I’m good at masking, the first time someone called me autist was in 2024.

Could also be that I’m not exactly very social. Could also be that most people don’t actually understand that autism spectrum includes people that are “almost normal”, not only the obvious “babbling weirdos”

Released on Steam and Epic, but not on GOG :(

Is there a good alternative to CheatEngine? Game Conqueror fails to find the correct addresses most of the time and its speedhack almost never works

and photoshop for giving any idiot the ability to doctor photos (with a bit more effort)

Please tell me how long it takes for an average skilled photoshop user to create one fake porn image of someone they know.

The difference is this one is in a bubble state propping up the US GDP and masking recession indicators

can’t wait for it to pop

It’s not the common man doing this to any appreciable extent.

When you look at numbers, indeed not, giant corpos are the ones behind the vast majority of the shit we have to deal with. Still, that doesn’t mean that some janes and johns have no responsibility, social media and YT rely on user content and reward “engagement”

Use Jan 1st 1970 as their DOB

AI isn’t “any other tool”, it’s global reach, industrial scale “content generation” for any idiot.

The vast majority of lies aren’t considered crimes, nor is it a crime to run spambot armies to sell shit, nor is accelerating the “dead internet theory”, or spamming amazon listings with genai slop books. Depending on the country, scam attempts aren’t crimes, it’s only a crime if someone falls for it.

But hey, “people should do whatever they want”, minus the unlawful stuff, so fuck everyone who gets a worse internet experience because of that, eh?

A word that starts with X in those languages will have the “sh” sound, so “Xit” will sound exactly like you’d expect to hear “shit”, without having to worry about whether the letters are representing the sound decently. I mean, pinyin fucking sucks, who the fuck thought that a good stand in for “j” or “dj” sound would be “zh”? Or that C alone is a good representation of “tz” sound??

Works better if you think in Spanish or Portuguese

Infinitely better, even if it did crop the author’s sig. Not even google wanted me to find the actual original, I got pretty close

Nintendo argues that this gameplay method is protected by copyright. However, the Japan Patent Office rejected the application, citing that the patent lacked originality as similar mechanics already existed in prior games.

Get rekt. Game mechanics cannot be copyrighted, though I dunno how Japanese law treats that. But it’s good that the display of previous art, with even Craftopia being listed and accepted as one that had the same “monster capturing” mechanic, despite that game being originally a “Breath of the Wild clone with crafting survival”

In a war, you will:

1. Dig a hole (trench)
2. Have a final stand
3. Slowly bleed to death

See, that’s why war happens, folks!!!

Digging the hole might count, you’re building a cave

“People should do whatever they want with AI!!!” - some idiot here on lemmy, about a month ago

Translation: people that aren’t forced to live in isolated boxes and work in isolated boxes have better lives

Tangent: Jami is p2p, so the only risk of going offline is if everyone in the groups go offline. It does lack several quality of life features, though.

Capcom is 100% betting on their Japanese viewers, the west is just a “sad casualty”, so to speak. If this ends up working in their favor, expect this shit to expand to other companies and tournaments, just like pay2win did.
