Looks like a game with potential. I like the aesthetic, and the music reminds me a bit of Forever Winter. Mick Gordon is a name that carries with it a lot of respect, considering how he handled being in a drama with Doom Eternal.

To your point about being a police officer, I have a feeling that’s where the title of the game comes into play? A defecting police officer sounds like quite a story!

They’re using Unreal Engine 5 for this one, iirc.

Yupp! I probably should’ve specified that I’ve seen the use in English, but it is indeed still in use in Icelandic! It stems from Old Norse, as a rune, iirc. Icelandic is the closest we have to Old Norse in today’s used languages.

I agree with the personalizing! I have a friend who wasn’t very good in English, so he masked it with leetspeak, and now that has simply become his style. It’s a bit of a hurdle getting used to it, but it’s rather intuitive, fortunately.

Thanks for chiming in!

I’m indeed curious whether it actually has an effect on the training, although my gut tells me that it’s very negligible.

Tbf, I can agree that the use of þ and/or ð could possibly make the written language a bit easier to translate into spoken (clear distinction between voiced and unvoiced). However, there are worse things about the English language that probably could need some addressing first, like thou, tough, though, thought, and thorough.

Ah, in that sense! I think it’s about is inefficient as the other reason honestly. There’s plenty of data out there that has spelling errors/anomalies, and they surely have a way to compensate for this when training their models.

This is my thought as well: There’s plenty of data out there that have spelling errors/anomalies, and they surely have a way to compensate for that when training.

Spot on the user I saw it from just now! Must be quite the active user then, as I keep bumping into comments using this character…

Ah, makes sense, kinda. Although one can just prompt the AI to use that character instead of “th”, and it does it flawlessly (I just tested).

Interesting worm, good that it’s found. Dislike the AI-written sensationalistic article at Koi (their work is still good), so I appreciate the addition of the article from Bleeping Computer.

Though the process is also something that is subject to external validation?

Say I’m learning to drive, but I keep failing the test. The goal/achievement is the end result; driver’s license. However my process of getting to that goal is sub-par compared to others, or “the average”. I’m stuck in the process itself, having many more lessons than others, but I have no apparent reason to struggle? Isn’t that infuriating?

I have to disagree a bit with the efficacy of this method.

I myself have been told that I’m very understanding for people who try and learn something new, or do something I already know how to. However when the roles are switched, I can’t help but to hold myself to a higher standard than I hold others, and I end up pissing on myself for having such a hard time doing something others seem to have such an easy time with. Personal example is learning a language: I’m such a slow learner, still being A1 after three years, while I have a friend who got to B1 in 9 months. And I keep thinking things like “why do I struggle so much retaining this simple information? I must be putting a weak effort into this…”, while my friends are like “Keep going! You’re doing great!”. I can’t help but consider it mocking, like “aw, it’s adorable that you try so hard, and are still a noob!”, even though that is something neither of us actually think.

It works well as a form of motivation though, albeit slightly toxic.

I try to compare myself with my previous self, but that I find near-impossible, for some reason.

“Its implementation could jeopardize existing and future investments, employment, and compliance with recent trade agreements,”

Jfc, they think they know best, and threaten with “here’s your potential future if you don’t agree with us”.

"Venture Global is grateful for the Trump administration’s final approval of CP2, a critical project that will supply American allies with low-cost LNG for decades, support thousands of jobs and greatly benefit the US balance of trade,” Sabel said.

And they’re vastly overestimating their prospects, having a mentality of “the US is the greatest nation!”.

I have hopes that these people in power will eventually stop their high-horse ravenous capitalism, but I imagine that day will only come after my lifetime…

[Meta] This is a great high-quality comment with proper references! I personally really appreciate the effort of elaborating on media articles that are often sensationalist or clickbaity. Keep up the good work!

Depends on the method, but a lot of normies find these pirate websites where you stream directly through a player on their website, and here they can serve ads, i.e. get money. Pirate Bay and the like also serves ads.

Both of these games are very well made, but they both cater to a special type of gamer.
Elden Ring being incredibly well designed as an introduction to souls-likes, it still has the mechanics and difficulty like most of From Software’s games, with slight variation. If you’re not a gamer who likes overcoming a challenge, the game is likely not for you.

Death Stranding I think is quite the unique game, but much thanks to its weirdness. It has a lot of curious elements to it, but its incredibly story heavy. With different difficulty options you can make it a very casual experience, but it can be quite slow at times still. If you don’t like several dozen hours of cutscenes, the game might not be for you.

[email protected] is one, but I suppose you’re right that there isn’t one on Lemmy.zip.

The website looks simple and nice at first glance. Plenty of potential! Might I suggest a way of importing words too, like in different languages?

Learning languages is great, and I hope you’ll do well with the community! Make sure to introduce the community on places like [email protected] and [email protected] to try and get some additional traction.

I’m at A1 myself with a different language, and things are painfully slow at progressing, so every bit helps!

This is something I’d love to have for the past decade or so, but as I’m now transitioning to Linux I hope to not have much of this problem anymore.

Nice of you to create this though, and I share your tiredness of settings being changed behind our backs…

I’m also curious about this. If there are any transparency reports, I’d love to read through that.

The Wikimedia Foundation are trying to implement some AI solutions (for helping humans, not write articles/information), which is likely quite costly, unless someone donates it. However, I imagine many others’ scrapers for AI are constantly demanding a lot from the Wikipedia servers since some years ago, probably resulting in increased costs. Hopefully the AI builders use a local copy of the torrent instead, but I fear they don’t…

I’m still happily donating though, as I think the Wikipedia Foundation are still doing a solid job, despite me not always agreeing with their decisions.

[Defense Department] information must be approved for public release by an appropriate authorizing official before it is released, even if it is unclassified

This is ambiguous, and can be applied to any and all information acquired through the Defense Department.

Officials indicated the move was needed because any unauthorized disclosure “poses a security risk that could damage the national security of the United States and place [Defense Department] personnel in jeopardy.

Isn’t this exactly what constitutes the need for information to be classified?

So ultimately, what is the purpose of letting journalists in at all? To give a false sense of transparency?
