So the dev wants all the benefits of selling on the Steam store while at the same time earning profits that they would if they sold it independently?

Am I reading that correctly?

I don’t understand. If the price is $7 elsewhere, why try to release on Steam for twice that price?

Why did the dev have to increase the price elsewhere to “match the price”, instead of matching the price to $7 on Steam?

Why would any store stock your product for the twice the price that it can be bought elsewhere? There is no obligation for them to stock a certain product (at any price).

I can’t dictate what other stores price it at, but I can certainly refuse to sell it in mine if it is not profitable for me. How is that anticompetitve?

because no one is following through on their promises.

Which promises has Iran backed down on (that wasn’t a direct retaliation to US and Israel breaking theirs) ?

Okay? Its not a bowl of nuts either.

Maybe you should see your nut guy?

I’m sure poutine tastes great but this picture just looks like a bowl of human teeth to me.

There are plenty of alternatives to alcohol that can be used to get high. People just lack imagination.

Liar. It is fake. https://www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/fact_checking/jordan-peterson-x-post-swearing-at-elmo-is-a-fake/article_de2d2468-137f-5ede-8a98-c09fe3ab1bf5.html

Except he/she aren’t words used to describe a person’s body, so what is your point?

It’s a joke, not a science lesson. Nobody got hurt.

I can’t believe you’re really taking his comment seriously?! He made a post about Santa’s reindeer and sleigh vaporizing due to the speed of travel. It’s supposed to be absurd, not a science lesson.

It’s a little ironic that you say NDT is annoying for his joke while complaining that his math (from a joke) does’nt make sense.

Credit where credit is due.

Do the words “disastrous” and “failing miserably” really make you think what they did would be a good fit for your company?

To each their own, I suppose?

Also, kids today still know what a phone is and what its used for. It doesn’t take a genius to realise that phone boxes aren’t needed anymore now that everyone has a phone in their pocket.

see Friction.

The point of the made up saying is to demonstrate that LLMs are just yes men.

What if you mishear a saying or phrase you hear in the street? You ask an LLM and it confidently tells you some BS about what it means, how often it’s used, and it’s origins. Even providing sources that lead to, at best, unrelated phrases.

How is that helpful?

A real person would likely say, “I’ve never heard that one before” rather than try to gaslight you (hopefully!)

Shed a tear for Hitler. He too was a human who was assassinated by the far right.

I can’t think of a single mainstream android phone manufactuer that requires any expertise setting up their phone out of the box (for doing anything an iPhone can do).

You then have the option to install 3rd party software or a custom ROM but that is not required, just a bonus that isn’t available to Apple users.

I mean, don’t you just log into an account these days and it’s all there?

Certainly no more complicated than setting up an iPhone.

Any “meeting” where it’s one person talking and everyone else listening is really more of a presentation, rather than a meeting. I cant see an AI bot engaging in a meeting (in any meaningful way).

Useful as a addional member to take meeting notes and provide transcriptions or even translations, but I don’t see how it can replace someone who actually has to converse with others in the meeting and make decisions based on information they bring to the meeting.

It really depends on the kind of meeting or why the meeting is being held.

I guess it’s fine if you are just being talked at for the entire meeting and there is no expectation for your input (but at that point maybe this meeting could’ve just been an email?).

So all this does is create a black market for tech. People with the knowledge of how to set up this technology will provide it as a service for those who don’t.

It’s the same as trying to outright ban drugs. Those who can provide for those who cannot (for a fee).
