A.I isn't in itself going to make anyone rich.
It's going to allow you and anyone who generates any kind of value, to do so, just that faster. Depending on the type of work, often far better quality too.
It's a productivity enhancer. One still needs to offer value in exchange for value.

Oh yeah, it certainly has a lot of value for optimizing work. For example, I do a lot of macro coding in Excel using VBA. Traditionally this meant copying and pasting code from other files, painstakingly creating it from scratch, or looking for solutions on the internet where some guru will make a forum post with code that is 100x more complicated than it needs to be. But now I can just ask ChatGPT to do it and it gives me simple code that only requires minor adjustments.

Post more Ravael :O!

As you wish! I still lurk occasionally, but usually by the time I find a post that I am interested in replying to it is already days old.

I have been more occupied lately due to trying to do too many gaming things at once. I'm a completionist, so anything I add to my plate is a big undertaking. I recently made the mistake of doing a 100% Crisis Core Reunion challenge run on Hard mode. Beating Minerva was a painful experience.

could just be the drive, can't tell you exactly just based on that but yeah.
Yeah, as far as I can tell it's my D: drive. ***'s installing/running fine on C:, but even just basic stuff like copying image files from D: is taking longer than it should. Problem of course, is that literally everything is installed/saved on D:. Gonna be a long few days copying my files over to an external drive. ( ._.)/

Pretty much. She has 77,777,777 HP on Hard difficulty. Max damage is 99,999. Dark Souls got nothin' on trying to punch Minerva 778+ times without screwing up.

Gil Toss appears to be the more viable method, but of course you have to farm a crapload of gil to make it work.

If you do a torch only Bloodborne run, and include the Chalice Dungeon boss, Watchdog of The Old Lords...

Takes 1844 hits to kill with ze Torch.

Book Update: I had to hit the brakes on production due to an error on the back cover. So, with any luck that will be resolved this week and the hard cover will be good to go. It's also going up on Barnes and Noble and a few other sites, but first the back cover needs to be fixed. Hang in there!

This makes sense, but I never knew this was how it was done (now)

If you buy a book, it's not sitting in a box or on a shelf, they print it up and glue it in real time. The ones they don't expect to sell large quantities they print to order/"on demand".

So every one of the print on demand books is a one of a kind original. I found that interesting.

(also, the Barnes and Noble nearest me just closed last week, hurray for books)

No wonder people simply dont take players for healer

My resubbed char also have ygnas but damn… ygnas is crap near apururu.

I could unlock Monb, but idk, i dont feel safe to resrt to his potions for heal

I mean it does seem like the majority of WoW players are in that boat so I'm guessing it has gotten worse. But I'll be honest, I was never able to get into it. I tried it shortly after its original release and it wasn't for me. And the things that I didn't like about it then are things that have never changed up to now.

The fact that those same mechanics that I didn't like about WoW are the same mechanics that virtually every MMO used as a starting point because of its popularity really hamstrung my options going forward.

Welp, i decided to not to play Xenoblade 3, but to watch the playthrough.

I found a very decently edited video with 5h only for cutscenes and meaningful battle.

What i can say, after 1h30 of cutscene is that this have a very solid storytelling.

So far, it got fully interested to see whats next.

Sound seems way better than the main game.

Matthew strong accent though while very characteristic of him, seems like too much.

Finally Nael, while i just saw two or three cutscenes of her, seems kinda awkward seeing her child face with her eh…. Bulky legs.

I beat the last of the PlayStation Armored Core games yesterday. I'd never played any of those three before. But I'm trying to beat them all in preparation for the release of AC6 in August, a challenge I set for myself back in December.

Master of Arena really was amazing. It was the perfect amount of challenge where if I failed once I could do it the next time with a slight tweak to my loadout or strategy. The story was good, with an interesting twist at the end and a really well built-up final level with a satisfying conclusion.

The only issue I had with the first generation Armored Core games (that they fixed by the second) is that you can only have one build at a time. Now I move onto AC2 on the PS2, which also happened to be my introduction to the series back in the day.

Exactly. The males use a hyphen and read like a coupled magic spell, while the females have a repeated syllable at the end.

Example: Ajido-Marujido, the brother. Apururu, the sister.

how concerned are you that A.I is turning out to be the greatest moloch ever?
I give my profession 2-3 years max before strategists, transformation, change management, marcoms and other corporate-type jobs are entirely A.I'd. Digital Marketing was already pretty ripe for being entirely automated.

My dumb *** saw the voucher and bought Tears of the Kingdom and Fire Emblem Engage. Only to realize I don't have Nintendo+ anymore so the purchases didn't qualify. :^)

Can't anymore I believe. They were selling them for $50 each for a bit. When they announced the $70 price for games going forward I bought as many as they let me have.



nvm seems you can still get them
