Honestly, same. I don’t even know all the options yet, wanted to keep the suspense.

Prince of Persia trilogy could work. It's more linear than assassin's creed so it could offer a change of pace.

I mean, AI can be used to design a lot of robust yet efficient structures. In engineering and architecture, with enough data, AI can generate designs for buildings, and parts that are not only sturdy but can be built with less resources along with other design considerations. There's a really cool nasa video where competitors are trying to 3D print structures for habitation in space.

AI is also used in medicine to come up with new protein structures to create new medicine. It's also used in environmental sciences, to help predict earthquakes or monitor land use, etc.

There's a lot of practical uses for AI.

For music I tend to use Spotify's similar artists feature or have the Youtube rabbit hole take me somewhere new. Sometimes I'll even find new music from other media; like if I'm reading a fanfic and the author posts the song they were listening to when they wrote it, sometimes I check those out.

For books, it's usually word of mouth, and for a games, a mix of that as well as reviews from people and a perusal through Steam Sales. I'm not too big on movies though, I just let my loved ones drag me into what they want to watch and they tend to have good taste. For TV shows, I let spontaneous mood choose for me.

There's:

  • skribbl.io it's a draw and guess game, kinda like charades.

  • Transformice was also pretty fun. They have a steam version of the game now, I don't know if they still have a browser port though.

And microtransactions, it's on steam now.

Yup. I never used any of the apps (always opened reddit through my mobile browser) so I wasn't affected that way. I am sympathetic to all the issues brought up, and I do really like the fediverse, but I don't think the users are here yet.

I like going to reddit to read about opinions or someone more knowledgeable than me talk about things. I find there's a lack of discussions in the fediverse at the moment for me, and maybe that's due to me having to curate my experience more. I don't know. But for now, yes, I still use it.

It's alright. Story was okay. Combat was pretty entertaining; although I'd recommend playing on higher difficulty, the gear progression makes the game too easy. The crafting mechanic was also fun for a while.

I think the worst thing about it is map bloat, but if that's a nonissue for you, you might enjoy it.

Because only a few people have a truly symmetrical face. Your hair acts as a sort of frame and so a middle part can end up emphasizing the imbalances that exist and thus make you look more lopsided. There are also additional considerations to a beautiful face. Symmetry is one, proportion is the other. You can have a very symmetrical face but if your features are smaller or larger in relation to it as a whole, then that can ding off a few points on the "beauty" meter.

That's why asymmetrical hairstyles can work so much better. It can shape your face in accordance to its symmetry and proportion and thus make it appear more balanced.

I think genuine and thoughtful discussion takes a lot more effort than shit posting, and when you mix that with a karma system that encourages one-upmanship and a few echo chambers, it can get toxic real quick.
