I don't think this can be salvaged at this point. Original Marathon fans don't like that it doesn't stay true to the source material. Everyone is mad about the plagiarism. Bungies track record is kinda shot after Destiny 2. I think the only people they could attempt to appeal to are hardcore destiny 2 fans.

I still can't believe they think dragging the US population (and potentially other countries) through a proxy war is a good idea. I would love to know why they think this is going to be helpful.

Trying to defend a killer like this says a lot about these people. Jeeze man

I don't think people are going to stop with AI stuff. We saw that new AI video tech release just recently, and they're already showing it can replace commercials in terms of cost/time investment.

Commercials will 100% be AI going forward. Assuming these costs stay the same, there's no timeline where they stop doing it unless the law deems it illegal to do so. Or unless the public hates it.

I think it'll continue forward regardless if we like it or not. We'll have to adapt in our own ways to this tech. I don't like it, but unless there's a major shake-up, I think we're stuck

I'm a bit disappointed that this article only touches on issues at surface level. One thing that stood out to me is near the end when they mention that men are more likely to be stuck at home. That seems like a far greater societal issue rather than due to gender?

I think it's just sad that people want a specific gender. These babies can't choose. They should be loved regardless of gender

Tbh this is not what I expected to see today.

Any update on this? Best of luck tomorrow. Be safe

I think everyone deserves their basic needs met. Everyone deserves a safety net. I often think of all the amazing things people have been able to accomplish and how if we gave more people the opportunity to flourish, humanity would likely be so much more advanced than we already are.

I think there's a moral obligation to at least make an attempt to reduce harm. Especially for topics that have very real life or death consequences (like vaccine denial). They have already shown they can do it to some extent with the info banners that pop up on videos.

incorrect or misleading information

If I had to guess, it's because of countries like India recently gaining widespread internet access?

The example given in the article already seems concerning. It's just going to allow misinfo to spread worse than it already was

 

(Is there a more appropriate community to post this in?) Thank you in advance for any advice/help!

I've come across this build on PC part picker, but I was hoping someone could help me customize it a bit better for my needs. I'm going to be streaming, gaming, and editing videos on this machine.

I would like to future-proof the PC as much as I reasonably can (10-15 years' usage would be great).

My budget is probably around 2-3k CAD? I am over extending myself slightly, but I have used my PC daily for 12 years, and I figure if not now, when?

The only other thing I might consider is new monitors, but otherwise, I'll be reusing all my peripherals as those are more recently upgraded!

I was also thinking a better Nvidia card might be worthwhile? The main thing is I'm not familiar with how the parts work in terms of compatibility. That and electrical usage/needs from the power supply

Edit: are prebuilts any good nowadays? I'm not opposed to the idea. I know I could figure out assembly myself, but if there's something worthwhile, I wouldn't be opposed either.

Edit: Just want to say thank you for all the helpful advice and information. I ended up finding a PC that met my needs and then some!

 

What are your thoughts on this? Are you happy? Sad?

I'm extremely curious. If you asked me this as a kid, I would have been celebrating. I always thought games should be accessible to everyone. But now I'm questioning if Microsoft plans to keep the Xbox ecosystem alive.

Exclusive titles are/were the incentive to keep people on certain consoles. Currently, I think only gamepass and digital libraries would be the only reason to stay with Microsoft if they continue to make systems in the future.

Additionally, I'm curious as to how this could destabilize the market. With no direct competition for high end hardware (other than pc/the steam deck), Sony can kinda do whatever they please.

 

I feel like I've played a good amount of horror titles, and I find I don't really get scared much anymore.

What are some titles that scared you the most? I would love to hear your recommendations!
