It’s funny, years ago, a single developer “killing it” on Steam was almost unheard of. It happened, but it was few and far between.

Now, with the advent of powerful engines like Unreal 5 and the latest iterations of Unity, practically anyone outside the Arctic Circle can pick one up and make a game.

Is tech like that taking jobs away from the game industry? Yes. Very much so. But since those programs aren’t technically “AI,” they get a pass. Never mind that they use LLMs to streamline the process, they’re fine because they make games we enjoy playing.

But that’s missing the point. For every job the deployment of some “schedule 1” or “megabonk” tech replaced, it enabled ten more people to play and benefit from the final product. Those games absolutely used AI in development, work that once would’ve gone to human hands.

Technology always reduces jobs in some markets and creates new ones in others.

It’s the natural way of things.

Dude that heist was so good no one is even upset really.

It's like the most benign crime and existence it was executed so well.

Just let them have the jewels.

I am also newly minty fresh.

Although up graded anyway because the games I play aren't an Linux.

The only downside is gaming.

I made a portable flashdrive for Linux for anything I want to keep privet and left windows for exclusively gaming.

Japan has some of the worst copyright and fair use laws in the world.

Satire is often times considered copy right infringing.

Lol. Crunchy roll was always crap. Watching anime in the raw is torture.

Two primary issues with Samsung refrigerators:

  1. On the French door models, the drainage system for the ice maker is poorly designed. Instead of water draining down into the pan underneath the refrigerator to evaporate, it backs up into the ice maker compartment. This causes a heavy buildup of ice. Eventually, the ice can get so bad inside the compartment that it prevents the refrigerator section from cooling properly.

  2. On almost all Samsung refrigerators, the drain holes for the freezer evaporator coil are too narrow. This leads to water and ice backing up into the freezer, creating widespread issues across the unit.

As a result, these refrigerators break down frequently. More than 50% of our work orders are Samsung ice maker problems. The root cause of these service calls is simply poor engineering and design deficiencies by the manufacturer.

The easiest thing in the world is not to connect your fridge to the internet.

Also don't buy Samsung refrigerators they are truly truly horrific.

I'm an appliance repairman.
