TXC2: no worries
GapFiller: What Did Fight Club Do!?
Juliamon: I did notice a lot of going-online notifs for oofc
TXC2: OOFC did nothing wrong, blame Windows
Juliamon: I'm not blaming oofc, just observing they also had struggles
TheMerricat: Well, OOFC did nothing wrong that we can pin on them. _this time_
RockPusher: Krog's Net very worn. Need more fibre make Krog's Net regular.
TehAmelie: clearly Nelson's power became too great for the computers
TXC2: hiting diamond broke the internet
TheMerricat: Chat, did you know despite both of them being green, Granny Smith Apples and Green Onions do NOT in fact have the same nutritional content?
GapFiller: maybe they shd keep him around for the Minecraft story since he wrote it
Juliamon: shocking
RockPusher: TheMerricat both are tasty in their own green
DeM0nFiRe: @TheMerricat Of course not. Green Onions is a song not food
TehAmelie: i could have guessed that from the taste
DoodlestheGreat: @TheMerricat And yet they both work in pies...
GapFiller: mmm apple and onion pie
Juliamon: maybe not the *same* pie
GapFiller: idk apples can work savoury
RockPusher: "So there I wos, down in t'pie…"
TheMerricat:
Caramelize the onions and they'd be sweet too. 
TXC2: there's probably some british meat pie that uses onions and apples
TehAmelie: that sounds more like criminalized onions
TheMerricat: "This is a modernized version of English cookery expert Hannah Glasse’s recipe published in 1747 in The Art of Cookery, Made Plain and Easy. "
Dragonlord_Panda: fruits are paradoxes one health thing and also one most unhealthy thing which them being full of sugar it is werld
kingandcommoner: !quote
LRRbot: Quote #1528: "Hey! You need all four reindeer to take off." —a little gnome
Snowcookies: hello chatters and chatees
GapFiller: been watching a lotta Friends recently and this conv has gotten me thinking abt Monicas english trifle shepherds pie that Joey really liked
TXC2: Dragonlord_Panda the kind of sugar they have is different from the "bad" sugar
TXC2: hello Snowcookies welcome
SocraticMethod: @Dragonlord_Panda Some of the sugar is more sugar than the other
Juliamon: it's still a sugar though
TXC2: GapFiller thinking the same thing
Juliamon: look I grew up when fructose sweetening was the hot thing in the natural foods community
RockPusher: The fruit being healthy is more to do with most of the stuff that isn't the sugar.
Juliamon: it didn't make me healthier
RockPusher: Which is why fruit *juice* is dangerous stuff
TXC2: title change!
TheMerricat: TBF though, it probably made you healthier than if you had spent the same amount of time downing coke and pepsie.
GapFiller: INCOMING
RockPusher: !findquote network
LRRbot: Quote #3857: "Of all the streams on this network, I thought Tinker Tailor would be the one where you lose a finger, but this is fine" —Molly Lewis, of Crokinole [2017-01-13]
TehAmelie: what we gotta do is squeeze all the sugar out from the fruit to create perfectly healthy food no one will like
RockPusher:
ooer, Molly quote 
Dragonlord_Panda: yeah that way I said they both health and unhealth you should not remove them from diet double true if you on a plant base diet
RockPusher: TehAmelie mmmm, celulose slab
TXC2:
TehAmelie so celery? 
TheMerricat: @TehAmelie ATA Nutraloaf. Served as a punishment food in fine prisons near you!
TheMerricat: AKA even
TXC2: Dragonlord_Panda except maybe don't eat apples if you have FODMAP problems
Juliamon: eh false equivalence, mom wouldn't have let me have Coke/Pepsi even if we didn't have fructose-sweetened stuff
Dragonlord_Panda: or if a evil queen ofter you a apple
Xed_Regulus: Can I sell you fine folks on a brand new food I'm calling Soylent Green?
TheAinMAP: Signal.
TXC2: CONTACT
TheMerricat: @Xed_Regulus I hear the trademark is opening again. The last company that was making Soylent went under AFAIK.
GapFiller: Xed_Regulus mmm people
TehAmelie: people are onto soylent green. but we can rebrand it. how about soylent red delicious?
ButButTheJesus: hi folks! I have to go through some boxes and clean up my shit! you're in my headphones!
ButButTheJesus:
Juliamon: the only *real* difference is she would buy "Fig Fruitins" instead of Fig Newtons and both were still cookies so I still only got to have one
SocraticMethod: @Xed_Regulus Eh, I prefer Soylent Yellow. It's got the tang
TXC2: hello ButButTheJesus welcome
mtvcdm subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 141 months!
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, mtvcdm! (Today's storm count: 15)
ButButTheJesus:

TXC2:
ButButTheJesus oh can't you?
Juliamon: oop
RockPusher:
TXC2: uh oh
GapFiller: !picnic
LRRbot:
THERE IS NO NEED TO PANIC, IT'S FINE.
TheMerricat: Whelp nice chillpoint everyone. see you next week!
Wolfstrike_NL: Good episode
dumbo3k: Good talk, good talk
RockPusher:
LunarJade: we’re just sorting something out
ButButTheJesus: @TXC2 well now I can't hear anytihng
Wolfstrike_NL: We're back
Juliamon: refresh
LunarJade: should be back online now
ButButTheJesus: the intertubes are clogged
TXC2: and we're back
GapFiller:
LunarJade 
hai Heather
TheMerricat:
I blame OOFC. 
TXC2: TODAY!
GapFiller: good ebening PH Balance
TheMerricat: Did they switch studios?
RockPusher: We're here because we're here because we're here because we're here
TXC2: Hello Heather and Paul
TheAinMAP: Hello.
TehAmelie: my tubes were going up and down for a half hour about 8 hours ago. maybe it's spreading by timezones
RockPusher: "smart"
Wolfstrike_NL: ooo no
SocraticMethod: Revenge of the 2.4MHz band
TheMerricat:
As it should be.
SocraticMethod: *GHz
RockPusher: Chat has the hard line
GapFiller: o7 Beej
TXC2: used Beej to pay the iron price
TXC2: SocraticMethod 802.11n still undefeated
GapFiller: sounds like my sisters tail light
RockPusher: They have a brand and dang if they are not going to rep it!
GapFiller:
mmm maybe the Studio A lights need an MOT
GapFiller: Tech Trubs in lieu of intro distractions eh
HavenDragon: chiller point
RockPusher: Perhaps corrosion on the interconnects
Bruceski: Somebody remembered to tell Gorb that cables are not spaghetti, right?
TXC2: he did hit diamond rank today
Wolfstrike_NL: Windows binged and stream went offline, then ghostlights happened yea
GapFiller: shdve invited him on ChillPoint to sort that out
GapFiller: he even wrote a story this week! it wdve totally fit
RockPusher: The hellscape that is video game news
TehAmelie: was there 360 angles?
SocraticMethod: Series of angles. There used to be One
GapFiller: wasnt the trailer literally at SGF just this month
kingandcommoner: Is that false advertising at that point? Feels like it
kingandcommoner: Senua
Juliamon: Senua
SocraticMethod: @kingandcommoner Can't be false if there is no delivery!
TXC2: one of those words were the "u" means "oo" and not "uh"
TheMerricat: This feels like Cleopatra destroying Hollywood for a decade level bad
SocraticMethod: They did buy little things, but that was at the first part
GapFiller: mmm pick 'n mix
RockPusher: MS discovered that video games make people happy and that state of affairs cannot stand
mtvcdm: It's fine to get the jelly beans at Bulk Barn. Do not let yourself be fooled by the wine gums. Wine gums taste like sadness.
TXC2: TheMerricat that did give rise to the auteur director age of hollywood, I suspect that wont happen in games
kingandcommoner: I wonder if they even warned her
TheMerricat: @TXC2 We already have that TBH. It's just that nobody's willing to buy those games because everybody's focused on buying COD for the 50th time
TXC2: TheMerricat yeah, I guess there's Super giant games et al
RockPusher: They're hacking up the boat and feeding it into the boiler's firebox
SocraticMethod: It comes in waves. We used to have Spector, Molyneux, Romero, American McGee, etc. Now it's mostly Kojima, Sakurai, Miyamoto, etc for the big auteurs
GapFiller: SocraticMethod aint the latter mainly of the same gen as the former
SocraticMethod: former have been supplanted by latter in zeitgeist
GapFiller: also noting those three counter examples are all Japanese (and two of em work specifically for Nintendo)
GapFiller: phunny how yr never hear abt Nintendo layoffs on that note
TXC2: didn't Nintendo make a point about the CEO taking a pay cut to not do layoff a few years back?
Strebenherz: I'm glad lrr is lrr owned
TehAmelie: if you announce a game? fired
TheMerricat: @GapFiller I don't know that that's because Nintendo doesn't ever lay things off as much as it is... You just don't hear bad PR from Nintendo for... various reasons
GapFiller: TXC2 yep and it was reported at the time (by CheckPoint even) as a point of difference between them and everyone else
mtvcdm: It feels like we're in an era when, the game dev population is going to be repopulated largely through indie devs who made good
TXC2:
GapFiller it being on checkpoint is how I know it even happened 
SocraticMethod: Well, NoJ does that. NoA does suffer from layoffs but not as bigs are the usual stories
TehAmelie: maybe i'm petty but i still hope "Microslop" will catch on. this company needs a bad name to follow them forever
RockPusher: Math implies there being rationality
TXC2:
get?
RockPusher: as opposed to just throwing spaghet
GapFiller: Strebenherz yr sometimes wonder if Paul and Graham look at Rooster Teeth eg and think there but for the Grace Go We
RockPusher: cube is love
Strebenherz: @GapFiller Yeah. Like that was a damn close miss
SocraticMethod: @TehAmelie I don't, mostly because I hate how "slop" has become the new pretentious word for "thing I don't like". Like "unserious" used to be
TXC2: thanks to the internet, all words get overuse these days
Strebenherz: Being company owner was idk like a mark of good at a point and now it's like phew, avoiding that
GapFiller: running gags!
RockPusher: I'm more spherical than cuboid
TXC2: forget cubicals, it's time for hexicals!
Juliamon: If we're aiming for ideal nesting shape, let's honeycomb it
mtvcdm: If you feed a dev to a blob, there's a chance they get isekaied and don't have to be a dev anymore
SocraticMethod: D12?
RockPusher: I was thinking Rocket J Squirrel
TehAmelie: maybe we'll only invent cubical office workers when the need to transport them gets too great. what with all the restructuring.
RockPusher:
Which kinda belies my age 
Manae: This is just making the Rubik's cube of beurocrats from Futurama
LordZarano: Rhombic D12s tile/honeycomb 3D space
GapFiller: oh what a week for Beej to NOT get to read the Sonic story
SocraticMethod: Rocky was in dodacahedron (d12). Triangles are in icosahedrodn (d20) or octahedron (d8=
TXC2: lifesize to whom?
Lord_Hosk: he inspired pauls character boxnard
GapFiller: Hell we have Sonic 2006
Wolfstrike_NL: Sonic's 35 years, and pent up
RockPusher:
Lord_Hosk: what????
NonchalantAvenger: whaaaaaaattttt
TXC2:
it's mountain dew isn't?
ButButTheJesus: he lives in our HEARTS
GapFiller: blame anonymous scurrilous muckrackers Heather
TehAmelie: if Andy Weir wrote him you bet Sonic's DNA would be mapped out
Wolfstrike_NL: Chhildren, don't listen to Heather, Sonic is real
TXC2: probably the other way round really
OldUncleDan: Isn't "Chaos Emerald" just a street name for Meth?
ButButTheJesus: i'm 12 at heart
richard_ermen: Oh nice, oldschool chillpoint today?
Bruceski: You're saying I *wasn't* supposed to do that to an emerald? ...I need to go to the doctor.
RockPusher: Experience Muckraker!
Wolfstrike_NL: @richard_ermen internet troubles made for a studio switch
RockPusher: For posteriority
SocraticMethod: It should have been very sloppily censored. Just for the bit
wench_tacular: that's just called being thorough
ButButTheJesus: he wha
Manae: Wait oh God, a life size Sonic with his DNA in a crystal... This statue is sonic self mpreg
GapFiller:
GapFiller: ffs Beej
ButButTheJesus: did eh land
RockPusher:
Strebenherz: Does being beejs partner make one used to the silliness or is the silliness ever nonsense?
RockPusher:
Don't want to say too much, but we're excited for people to discover the truth behind Soylent Green
RatherLargeToad:
it’s a sequel 
SocraticMethod: Mass effect
GapFiller: Watch+Play
DeM0nFiRe: Maybe this time it will really be the final fantasy and it will retroactively undevelop Final Fantasy 8 and later
Bruceski: Honestly if the ending *isn't* Cloud fighting Sephiroth to stop Meteor I'm suddenly interested.
RockPusher: That or they *are* actually telescoping a radical change
RatherLargeToad: dance battle
SocraticMethod: ME3 was famously written on the fly after dev threw out original outlines in ME2
TXC2: isn't rebirth basically the same as the OG game, just more?
ButButTheJesus: blasphemy!
Strebenherz: Freya crescent pops out from two games later and punches sephiroth
Bruceski: Kefka got two wings, let Sephiroth as a treat
mtvcdm: Sephiroth doesn't know how to set up a crowdfund for a second wing
GapFiller: part of me kinda hoped theyd do Aerith dfftly as a REAL Flex
BusTed: whoa
SocraticMethod: THat's just a SMT angel
TehAmelie: i remember an interview with the FF8 team where they said something like they put most of the effort into the beginning of the game, less in the middle and didn't really worry about the end. so, progress?
EvilBadman: lower torso wing for sure
ButButTheJesus: they'll have to change the soundtrack, it's always been called "One Winged Angel"
gualdhar: hear me out
gualdhar: gluteal wings
RatherLargeToad: maybe they go with the fan theory that FF 7 and X are in the same world and Sin will eat Sephiroth
Strebenherz: If you have a butt wing can you only fly by fart
HavenDragon: Butt Winged Angel
TXC2: GapFiller I legit thought they would as part of the whole "meta" plot thing
Bruceski: In one version he has one wing, in another version he has two wings, in another version Tim Curry was the killer...
Doc_Layzah: Like in dark stalkers?
ButButTheJesus: I've been playing Marathon almost daily and I didn't notice...
TXC2:
fredos are 30p now, we are in the darkest timeline
SocraticMethod: exploit early, exploit often
ArtDecoSunburn: I've read academic papers on the economy of Ultima Online. Was wild.
Wolfstrike_NL:
Sometimes it's connected, like with goldsellers etc in mmo's 
RockPusher:
Wiggins, Jordan, and Graham loot-pinatas ruining the economy 
SocraticMethod: Eve Online hasn't had economist since 2014, btw
GapFiller:
SocraticMethod: CPP did hire econ for Eve Frontier (the blockchain one) in 2025, that might be what's triggering the memory.
GapFiller: oooh free games
ContingentCat: oh no
ButButTheJesus: huh
ghyllnox: Ope
Wolfstrike_NL:
mtvcdm: 100% achievement rating
RatherLargeToad: reminds me that one year where Twitch sent out the watch hour emails and it listed a weird random game because it didn’t have Desert Bus in the database
gnyrinn: Sure you don't, Gary.
TXC2:
I don't even play game like that, and yet I still have a private account
Laserbeaks_Fury: I wonder if there are people out there who were like "Where did all my hentai games go?!"
TXC2: doesn't Sony get hacked fairly regularly?
Laserbeaks_Fury: And they can exactly ask support about it
CaptainSpam: Excellent, we needed a LoadingReadyPhone.
gnyrinn: A rotary phone?
GapFiller: what wd LRR be w/o Commodore eh
TXC2: Commodore, of LRR livery fame...
GapFiller: Penrose Tiles themed for starters
Laserbeaks_Fury: Comes with it's own Dial-Up Internet, but you can't talk while it's working
RockPusher: Callback *is* good branding
RatherLargeToad: screen is only in green and dark green
Juliamon: Some adults *would* appreciate that
RockPusher: People claim they want a regular feature phone
ContingentCat: lol I was literally thinking about setting parental controls on my phone for myself
CaptainSpam: We already DID do that for adults. There were phones for seniors like that.
GapFiller: given British news this week guessing those of us here in Albion will never see this thing in the flesh
SocraticMethod: It's kinda funny how the Commodore doesn't have UI ready so they have obviously photoshopped UI in.
RockPusher: But is is made of Nokia3310ium?
GapFiller:
Paul
GapFiller: over here in Britain we shall see v shortly Heather
RockPusher:
Anime has taught me that LINE ID anxiety is a thing
ContingentCat: we had facebook when I was in highschool but not on phones, we were still only texting with T9
RockPusher: I had a pre-pay Startac
Laserbeaks_Fury: Some day there won't be public schools, kids will just have the Teachr app
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Named clips with no autocaptions are preferred but not required!)
RockPusher: Living that Star Trek communicator life
Lord_Hosk: Can assure you, High School sucks with social media
TXC2:
Gods how I wish pay as you go would come back, I could make £10 last 2 years
RockPusher:
Lord_Hosk I mean, it often sucked without social media, so there may be a confounding variable 
GapFiller: Lord_Hosk tbf school still sucked w/o social media
ghyllnox: Barf
RockPusher: EA, NO!
Lord_Hosk: one of our kids high schools has a discord for just kids in the program. They have had to shut down and restart the server twice this year because people have gotten on and started sending threats to the kids if they didn't pay them bit coin
SocraticMethod: Again? Didn't they already do that in BF2142/BF3?
Laserbeaks_Fury: Are they selling Billboard Ads in GTA VI
OldUncleDan: "Doesn't seem that bad..." That's how it starts!
RockPusher misreads SocraticMethod 's message as a postgres WAL commit, is very confused for a second
ghyllnox: Paying for billboards in a dystopian setting would sure be something
ContingentCat: Alan Wake I think yah
EvilBadman: alan wake, energizer yeah
SocraticMethod: Yeah, AW1 had energizer ads
RockPusher: Thwedge
gnyrinn: @Lord_Hosk This saddens me, and then I realize that it doesn't surprise me at all - then I get angry.
ButButTheJesus: Death Stranding had Monster energy or something for Sam to drink. Jet Moto had Mountain Dew and Butterfinger bikes
LordZarano: !gant
LRRbot: ႳႣႶႠ ႳႣႶႠ
Laserbeaks_Fury: I'm waiting for when your playing a game and the screen pulls back so a lower banner ad can run
Laserbeaks_Fury: "Have It Your Way" to Skip
RockPusher:
McDonalds!
RatherLargeToad: If you say McDonald’s name three times, then he appears
GapFiller:
cookies (and therefore ads) or site subscriptions
ghyllnox: Can you switch a setting to say "I'm a recovering gambler and/or alcoholic" and then they disable those ads? Do they turn around and use that to sell you ads for recovery meds and therapy?
GapFiller: but NOT The Scottish Restaurant just yet
Juliamon: ghyllnox ahahahaaaa no
RatherLargeToad: should only be AARP adds
LordZarano: Burnout Paradise was EA right? That had billboards
richard_ermen: You have to understand, surely Hideo Kojima is friends with someone who likes Monster.
TXC2: ghyllnox no, that would require them giving a single flying fuck about people
Laserbeaks_Fury: The Blasto ads in ME3 were great, I don't want them to lose that flavor
Lord_Hosk: "interesting" is a interesting choice of words
OldUncleDan: Speaking of Mountain Dew. A local convienence store chain (Kiwk-Trip) has started offering Mountain Dew flavored donuts. They have been really popular and selling out pretty much everywhere.
SocraticMethod: Death Stranding was hilarious because Sam got a Monster Energy Canteen(tm) that converted fresh water to monster energy. I guess he doesn't have to worry about kidney stones
RatherLargeToad: all part of the greater Netflix Christmas cinematic universe
ContingentCat: or have ads for the next game showing up in older versions
Lord_Hosk: Like you walk past a electronics store in a game, and playing on the monitors, is another video game.
GapFiller: yeh its previously come up that TV is airbricked specifically so it cant be updated
Juliamon: downright draconian surveillance bullshit
TXC2: doing some heinous, draconian overreach
RockPusher: Indeed, they looked at Aussie's trainwreck and said "hold my beer"
TXC2: the OSA can eat out of my arse
gnyrinn: I wonder if the ads can depend on in-game metrics. Starcraft "your clics-per-seconds suggest you might enjoy a turn-based Strategy. This message is brought to you by Civilization."
Laserbeaks_Fury: This really screams at trying to isolate trans kids
GapFiller: q vpn take up over here skyrocketing
SocraticMethod: YT kids only, no comments or interaction
RatherLargeToad: “in order to know if the user is 16, we will need to digitally ID everyone. I’m sure you understand”
Lord_Hosk: Youtube kinda is social media, with the comment section
Juliamon: also trying to ban vpns
ContingentCat: @Laserbeaks_Fury yeah that's a reason I don't like it
GapFiller: Juliamon theres ads on the tube rn abt that
RockPusher: First they came for the porn… now they are coming for the social media…
GapFiller: linking Britain to other places that ban vpns
SocraticMethod: @Juliamon Only for plebs! Of course the leadership has a need for secure connection, of course of course
TXC2: Laserbeaks_Fury that's just a side effect, it's all about that getting that sweat sweat user data
RockPusher: Extrapolate as you see fit
ProcyonFlynn: If they want VPNs to be illegal, that's when you REALLY need them.
RatherLargeToad: Lots of face scanning, most being beaten by images of Norman Reedus from Death Stranding
Laserbeaks_Fury: AAAouuuaaahhh?
Lord_Hosk: Show me World War 2 battleship videos
ArtDecoSunburn: @Lord_Hosk Plus the walled garden platform nature. It's designed to algorithmically keep you on the site.
mtvcdm: Jon Bois talked about this. Nobody watches Home Improvement anymore.
SquareDotCube: Pawn Stars, etc
mtvcdm: Home Improvement didn't do anything to resonate.
TXC2:
which, as someone who doesn't have a smart phone, would block me from this site
Lord_Hosk: @mtvcdm Well After Jtt left the show what was left to watch?
mtvcdm: No matter how popular your online content, most people *won't* watch it. You're *always* watching your own stuff, so make sure you're happy with it.
RockPusher: The goal is to murder dead any form of anonymity/pseudonymity on the web
RatherLargeToad: They understand that they can’t quite control what’s on computers, and they don’t like that
TXC2: yeah, the OSA law wants to be able to break End-to-end encryption
GapFiller: 20 yrs later and we are STILL dealing w/ decision makers who have a Internet is a Series of Tubes lvl of tech understanding
RatherLargeToad: “We want a back door that only we can use”. “That’s not a thing”
mtvcdm: So what you want is a technology we do not have
mtvcdm: If YOU can read the encrypted thing, eventually EVERYBODY can read it
Laserbeaks_Fury: That's like the whole plot of Sandra Bullock's "The Net"
gnyrinn: @mtvcdm Not that eventually.
RatherLargeToad: I’m waiting for big companies to call their bluff and just shut down most of the internet for the UK
TXC2: SO many companies basically said "no", and stopped working in the UK rather then complying
TehAmelie: the next step they're dreaming of is forcing personal ID on OSes so you can't do anything with a computer without Big Brother watching. so creepy
mtvcdm: It's like deterring a home invasion. If one door's unlocked, they all are.
RockPusher: RatherLargeToad the companies in many cases will be the ones driving it because General Purpose Computing is bad for corporate profits
ContingentCat: of course they won't tell the social media compainies to make their product not harmful, since they hurt older people as well as kids
RatherLargeToad: But YouTube thumbnails have told me that Nintendo was “owned” and is now doomed
TXC2: pokeball was a patent wasn't it?
RatherLargeToad: @rockpusher good point. large companies actually love onerous regulations since they’re the only ones that can afford to comply
RockPusher: Bold to base your claim on the concept of a fishing net
mtvcdm: The old USFL "$1, triple damages" result
RatherLargeToad: it looked interesting when it first came out, and then I saw everyone post all of their sweatshops
TehAmelie: now picturing the grimdark turn where Krog struggles to patent net
mtvcdm: Palworld just not my jam, yeah, it's chosen a vibe I wish not to follow
Laserbeaks_Fury: Well, not it's actually worth money
Laserbeaks_Fury: *now
mtvcdm: 'Look at how edgy we are' is one of the fastest ways to get me to tap out
SocraticMethod: @RatherLargeToad Which is very funny because sweatshops are (were?) the least effective way to do things.
TXC2: right chat I'm off
RockPusher: TehAmelie Krog make new invention. Krog have canvas house, make Torg give Krog shiny stone use. Krog call it Pay-Tent.
TXC2: Goodnight everybody, and thanks for streaming Heather and Paul
ContingentCat: ok that snorlax bed is so cute
Wolfstrike_NL: James Turner mentioned !
TehAmelie: oh no, that's funny xD
RatherLargeToad: Eldritch Jigglypuff without a face

TheAinMAP:
GapFiller: at least it evolves into a dragon
ContingentCat: but it's doing it's best!
RatherLargeToad: ironically, Magikarp teaches you the most useful ability in Pokopia
Bruceski: "What's that Magicarp doing on your team?" "HIS BEST okay?"
TehAmelie: the 18 Games and Counting intro is coming true?
ButButTheJesus: oh we're just dividing by zero now
ContingentCat: I can't wait until we see this on Talking Sim
SocraticMethod: "This game uses a local AI language model to generate the NPC's dialogue in real-time during gameplay. All AI processing runs entirely on your device using bundled software, no internet connection is required and no data is ever sent to external servers or third parties. "
ContingentCat: hm
mtvcdm: Oh, right, this was me, my comment was I've hit the point with AI games where I scroll down to see if there's a disclosure and just hit ignore instantly if I see it... unless it's THIS one because this is just ballsy
ProcyonFlynn: LLama is facebook iirc, so it's stolen chats to fill in that data set
GapFiller: Pinocchio but ChatGPT aint the worst idea for a video game
EikoandMog: I mean, one of the first LLMs was AI Dungeon.
SocraticMethod: Llama suffers from context overrun, so just type "You are an AI" until the it runs out of tokens in window and breaks
grey7912: <message deleted>https://discord.gg/kU55AY6aU
mtvcdm: If there was an ethical use of generative AI to make a game, it'd be something like this, where you're open that the AI itself is a core gameplay mechanic and you can make a convincing case that the AI use genuinely can't be replicated by normal human creation
mtvcdm: It is
RockPusher: At least it is causing no more environmental damage than a video game otherwise would anyway
ratbabyonline: I dreamt Beej was acting like a surrogate father figure last night. It was unsettling
SocraticMethod: But you can take a shower and come back with a zinger, like we always dreamed of
mtvcdm: You're given a particular stance to try to get the argument machine to agree to and set on your way
ProcyonFlynn:
There are already real humans that will argue with you that reality is a simulation. You don't need to pay for that experience 
GapFiller: still in the SGF refractory period
ratbabyonline: There's a lot of AI slop in this next fest
ButButTheJesus: ew
SocraticMethod: Steam client is a browser, it works in both
mtvcdm: Oh I'd love that plugin
SquareDotCube: Let's just put it where it belongs, which is the the giant umbrella term that is "bullshit"
EvilBadman: I know there's a browser one that shoots up a popup if there's AI disclosed
ratbabyonline: I don't trust the "it's just for the placeholders!" No! Just have bad doodles!
LordZarano: Of the 40 games I bookmarked from SGF, 23 have demos
LordZarano: I might be at this for a while...
ContingentCat: @ratbabyonline yeah if it's just placeholders then not doing that isn't a big deal.
EvilBadman: Wishlist games, helps dewvs
mtvcdm: I try to keep my *wishlist* to 40
RockPusher: Don't tell Heather about the size of my wishlist and/or library
LordZarano: I watched every showcase. There were so many
mtvcdm: If you can't crack my 40 most wanted games I probably don't want you that badly
