This was an interesting read, but I’ve got stuff to do today, so I skipped the 90 minute video on their “outrageously ambitious mission”. Anyone care to summarize?

Thanks for including the link. I didn’t know who this creep was.

So, reading the responses you’ve gotten, it’s totally someone doing something stupid that you haven’t heard of before. That’s because you have basic common sense and aren’t cruel to animals.

This is one of the funniest things I’ve read today. What the fuck ever, Idaho.

I don’t watch football, so I just went by what the post I was replying to said.

This is only a temporary “problem”. Eventually, ads will be incorporated into the story, and/or advertising companies will include clauses in their contracts. I imagine those clauses will DEMAND that websites include advertising in AI readers or not get paid for any ads they run.

Think enshittification. AI readers are only ad-free now in order to make them seem like an attractive option, and get people hooked on using them. I bet the numbers have already been calculated and decided on. Once AI readers are used by enough people, the ads will start.

Don’t forget the advertising that’s constantly rammed down your throat. With all that, plus timeouts and other crap, there’s only about twenty minutes of actual gameplay in the whole ninety minutes.

Well, they can’t criticize God-King Trump, and all that hate has to be directed somewhere, so…

I’ve read the book several times, and seen the movie twice. The film is excellent, and captures the “feel” very well. Don’t worry about blasphemy. You gave the book a fair, honest chance (and while the story is widely praised, the writing is not. You aren’t alone).

No need to deny yourself a great film! I’m excited for the sequel!

Microsoft reneged on promises it made in court…

If those promises aren’t legally binding, then why take them into account in the first place?

Fuck you, Palworld, here comes Donald Duck with a shotgun.

Most definitely! I was laughing at myself as I wrote it, but posted it anyway.
