Okay, because you said I’m the best, I’ll explain some more because you are right, there are some cases where your Mom gets you “Revenge of the Joker” or “Batman Forever” when you’re a kid and maybe you don’t immediately think back to Michael Keaton’s excellent acting in things like Birdman and Batman Returns on Super Nintendo. Whatever, I’m not trying to judge your mom, how is she supposed to know in 199X which Batman games to get. But here’s the thing, people used to complain all the time about how there weren’t any Batman videogames where you actually feel like Batman until Arkham Asylum and I will tell you right now that is because they suck at videogames. You can actually do almost all of the stuff you see in the Tim Burton movie in this Konami videogame. For example, if you are good enough you can walk through the clown crowd and smash that one intimidating clown’s head with concrete just like in the movie. Michael Keaton has the shortest reach of any person featured in the whole game, just like in the movie, even though about 65% of the game is about punching. Batman can blast through Gotham in the Batmobile and have to shoot boring, bullet-sponge enemies in a confusingly underbaked mandatory vehicle section which is both in the movie and a full 20 years earlier than Arkham Knight made that mistake. Most Lemmy videogamers though? They will never see that vehicle level because it is after Catwoman and the mid-game boss rush and they are poor videogame players, nobody is sure why. You could try and prove me wrong but I’m openly sure that you won’t, because your prose is not that of a Fighting Game Tech-Understander Pro Gamer.

Pretty funny to posit that a LLM chatbot ought to talk us out of conspiratorial thinking while running on a corporate GPU farm absolutely BLASTING through electricity and copyright and IP violations because it’s legally convenient for the powerful. Please post more thought provoking unreasonable propaganda.

Those games are also excellent IIRC, especially Michael Keaton’s acting in Batman for the Nintendo Entertainment System however that game is only loosely canon as it states on the game’s Wikipedia.

You should just stop spending money in general if you can. So many responses are like “buy literal garbage like disposable decorations at the dollar store,” do not do that. Stop spending money on garbage. Every dollar you spend is damage to the environment and more power for the wealthy, just stop it. Stop spending.
Don’t buy entertainment, use archive dot org. Read more. When you like something culture you consumed, give it to somebody else so they don’t try to buy it. Pass entertainment around to your friends.
When you have to spend on things like haircuts, repairs, etc, keep the money in your social network. If you don’t cook, learn. If you aren’t a part of your local grocery distro, join it.

Avoid giving corpos money whenever you can and you’ll save lots of money.

Why is Biz Insider so insistent on being cringe on top of being a worthless capitalist propaganda rag

Ars Technica is a captured outlet. They consistently post dangerous corpo propaganda and little else.

The reason your someone might have thought this was a stupid question is because

  • there is no evidence that AGI is imminent or even possible
  • current tech labeled as AI is really limited in very boring ways, like LLMs

If some thing gets sold as an AGI, it will be a Mechanical Turk, As in, it will be a magic trick that actually uses human laborers like Amazon’s “AI Store” where you just walk out with your purchases. “If it works, it’s mechanical turks.”

Wikipedia is fine, it isn’t “losing prominence.” This is willful misinterpretation of a speech to make it sound more dire, a nonsense AI propaganda angle, and a bunch of ageist nonsense about Gen-Z that will be immediately familiar to anyone who pays attention to this kind of slop.

Please post better articles
