The nerfs killed it for me. I’m taking a break. I think Arrowhead needs to focus on fixing some bugs and making the weapons we already have fun.

Just reading Chomsky, then Graeber. There is actually no great injustices in my personal life. I dont have any reason to complain.

I wish more people would create worker owned cooperatives. They might be more resilient and might even be more productive. Of cause the downside is that they don’t make one person very rich.

When was the last time EA had an idea that made things better for the customers.. you know like how companies are supposed to work. Customers pay and in exchange they get something that makes their lives a little better. But it’s always just about extracting value and giving as little as possible back.

“Here take the same reskinned soccer game, now a little bit more expensive, with ads and new bugs, and some micro transactions, because you should pay us more, because fuck you”

Why do people keep letting Microsoft be in control. Stop buying Xbox and Gamepass. Stop using Windows. Don’t use Microsoft Office. That’s it. Microsoft is no longer a part of your life and you can forget they exist.

I don’t think this can be solved with any type of technology. It needs legislation. These AI companies need regulation.

I really hope these developers create new independent studios and if they ever get offered a big bag of money, they will remember what happened last time. Maybe they will be smart enough to create worker owned studios and not waste huge salaries on useless CEOs.

It’s not about privacy. It’s about AI companies stealing other peoples work and knowledge and profiting. Like what they did with artists. And I think that’s bothering a lot of people. It’s kind of sad that we cannot exchange information with each other for free, without some Silicon Valley crooks taking advantage and trying to convert other people’s good will into profit.

These LLMs are also polluting the web with AI junk and slop. The web is absolutely tainted with shitty ChatGPT text and images, making it harder and harder to find authentic information. I think a lot of people don’t want to contribute with that.

I don’t mind ads in EA games, mostly because I will never play them.

Not even in games can an honest peasant drink.

It seems to matter for the users at Stack Overflow. And why should anybody give anything for free to the crooks in Silicon Valley. All they do is create technology designed to extract value out of people and give as little as possible back.
