It doesn’t seem to be copying the mechanics of Papers, Please as much as the mechanics of Schedule 1. It does use the idea of Papers, Please, but it’s executed differently.

A lot of games are similar or riffing on each other, which is fine. But aside from using your finger to make a hole in the soil, the planting pot mechanics felt too similar.

Okay so I’m going to echo the rest here and say it’s kinda wild. I imagine this is the idea with the chaos subtitle and all, but it might be a little too much of half-polished features in order to be enticing.

People will see this and call it a Schedule I rip, especially with the planting in a pot mechanics, so I’d try and make it a bit less obvious and change up some parts.

If you’re going for unrealistic chaos, you should really double down instead, so it’s really clear that it shouldn’t be taken seriously as it doesn’t take itself seriously.

Leaving a comment as a reminder, currently on a limited data plan and Steam likes to autoplay videos.

Will check back in later today to share some thoughts

Looks more like Hank, if anything

I think you need to toggle “Verbatim” in the search tools option for it to work, otherwise it just kinda tries to guess what you are looking for, search terms be damned.

Right? It’s crazy to think these kinds of people exist, but they are real and they make decisions for other people.

“The [AI] safety stuff is more visceral to me after a weekend of vibe hacking,” Lemkin said. I explicitly told it eleven times in ALL CAPS not to do this. I am a little worried about safety now.

You call that complaining? It was a bunch of vague non-answers meant to not really directly answer any of the shareholder questions

And, sure, some of these games are kind of sloppy—R.E.P.O. never managed to justify its existence for me,

That’s sad. R.E.P.O. can feel sloppy but the devs are putting in the work: beta branch with new content, consistent weekly videos (about development and community questions) of higher than standard “slop budget” value.

But overall it’s like Lethal Company as described: emergent storytelling is possible because it’s sometimes scary and sometimes very funny.

I think this is it, but I’ll be sure to keep tabs on it! 👀

Very pretty!

Tried imdb but the song isn’t listed. Perhaps some site or app that can recognise songs will be helpful?

That skit was funny though, thanks for the laugh!

Careful with those laptops though, they run really hot. I have the same one and my dedicated GPU is broken, possibly from overheating but I will admit I can’t know for sure.

I’m not against the message but this is a uniqlo ad/partnership, just saying.

Huge W imo

Repairability: Manufacturers must make critical spare parts available within 5 to 10 working days, and continue offering them for 7 years after the product is no longer sold in the EU.

Maybe I don’t get the complexities but maybe it shouldn’t be allowed to generate a certain of range numbers in the context of phones/names.

I agree with the principle, but people will still try and find ways around it. Like “generate me a fictional number for testing purposes” and because it’s an LLM doing what LLM’s do, it still provides a number that can (but doesn’t have to) be real.

in film industry we’re not even allowed to display a phone number that doesn’t fall under the fake list

Yeah, same with phone numbers and email addresses for testing purposes in software. Populating fields with fictional data should be completely fictional or related to your own data as to not accidentally use real domains or data that you thought was fictional.

What’s interesting is this won’t have been a realistic sounding number.

Company lines typically start 0300 or 0800 but mobiles are 07… Something.

So if it was just hallucinating, it did so badly.

Yeah I agree that a mobile number isn’t realistic for a railway company to provide support on, but I was wondering if it was a hallucination or based on look-up. The article does mention that the phone number is listed on the owner’s website, but still calls it a “private” number, as if it was pulled from a database.

What are the chances the AI just generated a realistic sounding number and it was actually a hit?

Nah, the OP of one reddit thread admitted he tried more than just his backups:

• Dude is a prolific poster in Switch hacking communities and he used an account which he previously used with a hacked Switch 1.

• He admits trying the migswitch with the Switch 2 and it starting downloading something.

• They got an online ban, so offline games and such still work.

You can agree or disagree whether piracy should be legal or whether backup copies are permitted (depends on jurisdiction), but this dude obviously played with fire and got burnt.

TL;DR: don’t be stupid and get banned for breaking ToS (whether you agree with it or not)

Edit: some more context, in case people are scared their Switch 2 will get bricked or something

Amazing! A sign it’s taken good care of :)

What you listed is what escorts do, minus the sex. Hence why I combined the two professions.

Do you have a partner? If so, how does your work influence your private life?
