Should’ve worn your Halloween getup, nurses would’ve liked that 🩻
Not normally going to A&E for blood test so hope health is OK.

Too many games and too high stakes not to play your first choice week in, week out. But that is what is facing the top clubs. Need 22 starters (plus subs) so you’re not playing two full games per week. But can the finances stretch that far?
At least we’ll see what Hincapie and Mosquera can do.

Clearly it’s too much football. I ask the same question when Tuchel is playing first choice players against Albania when qualification is sealed. If you put those extra minutes in the legs now, will you still have them fit by next summer?

It’s a long-game/loss leader. Make yourself (or find a way to make yourself) indispensable, then you start to charge the ‘proper’ rate.

Hopefully it implodes before they burn the last tree on the island trying to keep it going.

Only happens if the AI magacorps become our governments 😭
Best to just boycott any company that uses AI for a job a human could be doing. Turn down the chatbot and wait to talk to the customer services on the phone. Encourage others to do so same.
A bit tinfoil-hatted, but not sure I’m wrong.

Oh, that will undoubtedly be accounted for too. But even if the cost of AI services becomes 90% of the cost of employing humans, companies will still be saving, right? Except that money you paid the humans won’t be recirculated as it was before and company X no longer has a business model…

The monetary value of work doesn’t change, either. When we’ve all been made redundant by AI the cost of those AI services will sharply rise. May be cheaper now, but something tells me that won’t last.

Very impressive. I note the recommended GPU is an RTX 4070. Still, this is how I remember the original Left 4 Dead on Xbox when I picture it in my head through (the nostalgia filter)

So many of you in this thread have made it this far without a Dreamcast? I don’t understand 😂

If you want to feel extra old, phrase things from your childhood as having occurred ‘in the 1900s’ 😫

There’s more to nostalgia than the quality of the OG trilogy. Show little me the Lucas and Disney versions and I’d quite possibly favour the latter 😬 Heresy!

I have seen all the Disney SW films, with the evident exception of this last one - didn’t find any of them terribly offensive and quite enjoyed Rogue One. Realised they’d not recapture the joy the originals brought me as a child in the ‘80s. But that’s fine.

Why do I have the feeling AI will only be the cheaper option until the point that the people that used to be paid to do the jobs are all unemployed 🤔

If he can competently cover whatever absentee he is required to centre/left for the time being I’m happy enough. Warm bodies until we have the ‘luxury’ of a fit team

Also makes me think about the wider industry; eating itself with game development cost pushing for ‘bigger, better, flashier’. A new, modest, hardware target may have further positives (Nintendo model). Interesting to see how this plays out

The original incarnation flopped, but Valve will have learnt a lot from that and the relative success of Steam Deck. But price will be key to getting new Steam adopters in.

If Valve prices the GabeCube competitively (£400-450), interesting times. Based on Steam hardware surveys to represent an upgrade to a large part of user base, and times when W10 support ending, no more Xbox hardware… plus the biggest back cat of games at low prices, and in this economy.
