Now go one step further; It isn't a translator but a creator. It manifests the self outwards.

And another step further; The logic of the universe is re-created in every moment backwards into time.

Look up Solipsism.

And if not for Elon electric cars would still be years away.

Praise Elon.

Lmao.

What a joke.

I think that's a very big stretch and I don't think we'll see that any time soon. Microsoft is already losing market share and they can't do much more of this type of stuff because more and more people are getting annoyed. (Including ones with a following such as PewDiePie)

Anyways, Linux is great.

Why? It's probably just an ad.

[–] x00z@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I have done translations and even for my own language I often use an LLM. It's the one thing they are actually amazing at. It's also probably not about "anybody noticing". It can very much be a single developer doing it on their own ChatGPT account and the QA didn't notice it.

I really don't care about this stuff though. The AI label should be for gen AI and not revising some text or translation imo.

Well the more known sleighing competitions have 4 people right? Same thing.

You realize this’ll occur at the expense of Microsoft treating the user as an untrustworthy enemy.

What do you mean? Take away your ability to create drivers? Because it's already extremely limited and you need to get signed. I guess this "change" would just mean not signing any new antivirus drivers.

This means modding (even for offline play) will not be allowed. Heck, even modify ini files might be viewed as “hacking”.

That's a completely wrong take. Whether or not an anticheat runs in the kernel or not does not mean people can just go and edit their files. Even with a kernel level anticheat people can already do that if the driver is not running. The correct way is to do purity checks during connection to an online server, and only allow serverside code to update the gamestate. Any texture file hacks and local purity bypasses for those would need to be caught by the userland anticheat, like it has been done for ages. Not the best solution, but far more privacy friendly.

I agree removing the need for anti-cheat in principal sounds nice, but this means archiving games or porting them to “unsupported platforms” will be relics of the past.

Another weird take. Are you talking about the anticheat not being installable anymore? Because even if a game comes with a kernel level anticheat it would need a valid certificate, so any dead game would eventually have this problem regardless of it being allowed to install the driver. Porting games would in almost all cases get rid of the anticheat or somehow null it, disable any custom servers from forcing a valid anticheat, stuff like that. And archiving would be much easier without any anticheat at all, again regardless of kernel anticheat or userland anticheat.

MUCH better solutions against hacker are to use all this amazing machine learning stuff on the server side, put more power back into the hands of admins and their selfhosted servers, and handle reports about hackers better and faster.

That's actually extremely common. Belgian fries (the original French fries) are originally cooked in beef fat. But nowadays it's often a beef/plant based fat mix instead. It's actually quite hard to find vegan fries in Belgium.

I have the feeling Israel is a US puppet state that is being used to take control over the Middle East. (And destroy Islam while they are at it)

Maybe at first it was just 2 people sitting normally on a sleigh, but then they figured out laying on top of each other is faster and it became the META.

Flame modifies the Dungeon Keeper 2 code to fix the bugs found in both single and multiplayer. It works with the Disk, Steam and GOG versions of the game. It is similar to how KeeperFX decompiled and rewrote the original Dungeon Keeper code to add fixes and new features.

The installation instructions are on the page.

The night is dark and full of terrors. One of them being a new version of the best mod of the entire website: KeeperFX 1.2.0

When installing KeeperFX, do not overwrite any previous versions. Saved games cannot be migrated. There is a wiki that has all the information you will ever need, but the more popular option is asking the friendly people of our discord server.

What’s new in KeeperFX 1.2.0:

  • Multiple different hero (roaming) players on a map
  • Up to 1000 units per map
  • Legacy rule set matches original game better
  • Midas Door
  • Different notifications for paydays, alarm traps and heart being attacked
  • Moon level appears when it actually is a full moon
  • Removed 'counts' from several config files
  • Many new possibilities for mapmakers to make more advanced maps
  • And much, much more.
 

GPT summarize:

Mozilla's latest update on Privacy-Preserving Attribution (PPA) discusses its testing phase in Firefox, focusing on privacy in digital advertising. The prototype allows aggregated ad measurement without revealing individual user data, using cryptographic techniques and partnerships with entities like ISRG and Fastly. PPA aligns with privacy laws like GDPR and is being tested in controlled environments, such as ads for Mozilla VPN on the Mozilla Developer Network (MDN). Mozilla aims to refine PPA through feedback and expand testing while ensuring transparency and collaboration.

 

In my quest to get this community going, I'm reposting a few older things. This is the group stage of the official KeeperFX tournament we held in EUW last year. These videos have commentary by Dofi, a beloved streamer in the community, and are edited by Spatulade, who deserves a big kiss for the amazing editing, trailer and intro.

I'll post the main stage later. I'm choosing Odysee for this because Google stinks.

 

To get the DK community a bit going on Lemmy I'm reposting the news article from May when KeeperFX 1.1.0 was released.

I suggest everybody who wants to give DK a try to have a look at KeeperFX. It's an opensource remake with many many improvements and fixes and it contains the original campaign as well.

Notes

The mobile game called Dungeon Keeper has been kept from this list as it has been removed from the mobile app stores and is not available anymore. It was a freemium tower-defense game. Even if it was still available it would not be playable anymore because it relied on the servers of EA and those have been shut down as well.
