The numbers were certainly far greater than what even I could expect. Seeing the +3.10% growth is wild, even considering the usual Chinese New Year shake up, as that's +2% net since Jan. Sure, the numbers might get adjusted, but as they stand right now? Absolutely wild. I was freaking out seeing how the tracker would need to add another percent and some change to show the new number. We finally broke the 10% barrier for English as well. March has set records beyond my wildest expectations, and it feels so great.

Tech has advanced enough to no longer justify making dedicated game boxes with locked down software that become e-waste. From a price perspective the games will cost more, not to mention the lack of access to the many marketplaces that include plenty of free ones, fan creations, or ones without DRM.

Quoting: scaine12. Impact on website scraping from multiple companies building genAI models. Wikipedia in particular has had to actively block enormous ranges to prevent the scraping from leading them into financial run. Again, can't be bothered to find the link, but there's a Wikimedia blog talking about it.Wikipedia recently signed API access deals for AI training, so I guess getting paid for the training data is preferable to it just getting scraped.

Quoting: spoon-curveIt would be lovely if someone took the opportunity to launch an alternative to Nexus Mods.
Quoting: TheSHEEEPSome mods are only available from there.Requiring an account to simply download the mods manually is a big nope from me. Any justifications are silly, it is antithetical to the idea of modding being made easily available, and other mod sites don't have the same restrictions.

Gen AI isn't used in our products (meaning currently). We're only making an AI studio, which would then lead to gen AI being used in our products :(
