  • Unfortunately, we have bears around my parts. And bears like the fruit too, driving human bear conflict. Which means the bears are killed. 🐻 :(

  • Argentina will use AI to ‘predict future crimes’ but experts worry for citizens’ rights

    Jump

  • Oh, I've seen this movie.

  • What scientific discovery, which could actually happen in the next 5 years, would have the most impact in our lives in you opinion?

    Jump

  • In the next 5 years?

    I'm skeptical. In the next 20, sure.

  • The ones in the picture are hospital socks, presumably from a psych related stay.

  • A person's home may be their castle but if they leave it vacant can they really complain if it gets taken away?

    Jump

  • If it's vacant then it's not their home, it's just unused housing.

  • Do you know any singleplayer games that are infinitely replayable?

    Jump

  • Hades.

  • Let's discuss: Super Mario

    Jump

  • I was pleasantly surprised by Super Mario Wonder. It had the same feel of fun and variety that the older games did.

  • ChatGPT’s much-heralded Mac app was storing conversations as plain text

    Jump

  • So people are morons?

  • Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of June 30th

    Jump

  • Picked up Bloons Tower Defence 6 on sale for $1.50, already put quite a few hours into it.

  • Pro Tour MH3 Archetype Win % Matrix

    Jump

  • Nadu just doing Nadu things.

  • Anon thinks about Google

    Jump

  • Helping to contribute to OpenStreetMap using Street Complete has the potential to change that.

  • A cool guide to sushi etiquette

    Jump

  • It's just personal preference.

    I learnt it from a chef in Japan in 2009, and I assume he had been doing it for many years at that time.

    Generally, that's something done at a sushi train restaurant where the dishes won't have wasabi in them already. I'm guessing these notes are for a sushi restaurant where the chef prepares the sushi specifically for each customer, so if you wanted wasabi they'd put it in the sushi itself.

  • Ethical, easy-to-use and privacy-conscious alternatives to well-known software

  • Serif (which owns Affinity) was just bought out by Canva, so it's only a moment of time before they are enshittified unfortunately.

  • What app are you using to browse Beehaw on Android?

    Jump

  • I use Connect.

    I used to use Jerboa but it broke after an update and I switched over, I found it to be a better UX on Connect.

  • My dad just got back online after years of boondocking it - he likes tactical shooters with a rich map making scene - what's out there?

    Jump

  • Arma 3?

    Haven't played it personally, I'm not big on milsim games, but it's got a decent following. Might not have the accessibility options though.

    I've heard good things about Battlebits, for what it's worth it seems decent.

  • What demos are you playing for this edition of Steam Next Fest?

    Jump

  • Nice list, definitely gonna download some of these demos.

    The Alters looks really cool, and What the Car seems like a fun time.

  • Starting out stardew valley. What advice would you give?

    Jump

  • Have fun and do whatever you want!

    It's a very chill game, but you can make it as stressful as you want by trying to do everything.

    There's no time limit, you can play for as many years as you want, so don't stress and try and get everything done as fast as possible (unless that's fun for you).

    AI doesn't read or write like humans and we shouldn't act like it does.
