Have you been playing it? What's your current thoughts on it?
I've never played any Diablo before. When trying this, I did like it... but I hated that I, The Only One To Save Em All, met Moron55 and all these other ones to save em all. And it's not possible to switch it off.

Quoting: EikeNo, erm... I don't understand the abbreviation "LE" in the first place. It can't be "Light Emitting", right?
(But I love having my LEDs less strong.)

which should be interesting to LE users
Probably missing something obvious here, but what are "LE users" using?
Maybe because the LE is translucent, it is more annoying if the power LED is very strong. Could be that they can even see it lit up through the shell when playing in darkness. Something you don't really see on a standard shell.

Point and click adventure Zarathustra uses AI Art and AI Voices

Quoting: GuppyBut be that as it may, that's not what I'm talking about - I'm talking about technology displacing workers, and said workers being upset about it.

From my point of view, most use cases currently is for art "AI" is for projects that would never exist if not for the technology. If at any point it stops being horribly bad it may cost some ( or even most ) artists their livelihood, and it will be inconvenient for them to find another income source - but they will.
It seems you're not differentiating between physical work and making art. In my humble opinion, there's a huge difference. We've dreamt of machines doing the hard work and the humans having time for art or whatever they're pleased to do - not the other way around.

Quoting: SoulprayerCool. Portal 2 was awesome, looking forward for this mod!
Did you play Portal Stories: Mel already? If you're into a challenge, in classic/hard mode? The puzzles are great. I was unhappy I wasn't allowed to pay money for the game!

GNOME gets €1M funding from the Sovereign Tech Fund
15 Nov 2023 at 12:52 pm UTC

Quoting: amataiA bit late to the party but I was wondering to whose sovereignity the Sovereign Tech Fund was refering. Turn up it is a fund setup by some German administrations, the Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Klimaschutz and the Bundesagentur für Sprunginnovationen.
So I guess we need to thank Germany for this one.
You're welcome. ;)

I'm sure it refers to sovereignty from the big (US) IT players. You know their names...
For the question of whose sovereignty, the website mentions "Europe and Germany".
