User: I need a summary of a discord chat log. 
    
    I want you to use a format that mentions topics in an outline format with a dash (-) for each topic. include what users said/were talked about. these should be shortish summary paragaphs, not just a line by line quotation. include quotes and who said them rarely but as needed. Don't say stuff like "one user" but instead name the person you're quoting.
    
    do not say "topic".

    DO NOT MENTION TIMES OR USE TIMESTAMPS. don't just provide a chat log.
    
    Here is the chat log:
    
[09:10 PM] tim dog: july 1st is here
[09:10 PM] tim dog: being gay is illegal again
[09:10 PM] tim dog: [image]
[09:21 PM] stupid dog: tim mail me some soft shell crabs
[09:21 PM] stupid dog: pls
[09:51 PM] tim dog: it costs so much to ship them here
[05:27 AM] Fertilization President: [image]
[06:52 AM] tim dog: Looking like stop killing games may actually reach its signature requirement
[06:52 AM] tim dog: <a:froggy:1371838099553779814>
[07:58 AM] tim dog: 
[07:58 AM] tim dog: Is this still true
[07:58 AM] Alex #1 friend: yes
[07:59 AM] Alex #1 friend: his owners were maga tards
[07:59 AM] tim dog: Idk who peanut was
[07:59 AM] Alex #1 friend: he was a squirrel that was living with some maga only fans couple that got killed by the state
[07:59 AM] Alex #1 friend: because they didnt her permits to have wildlife in their apt or some shit
[08:01 AM] tim dog: <a:NM_GunPoint:756238524839231659>
[08:07 AM] Alex #1 friend: https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/sources-everwild-has-been-cancelled-as-xbox-layoffs-hit-rare/
[08:07 AM] Alex #1 friend: lol
[08:08 AM] Alex #1 friend: just sell rare back to nintendo
[08:08 AM] Alex #1 friend: microsoft has never known what to do with that studio
[08:09 AM] Fertilization President: I feel like that's a statement that could be applied liberally to many other studios
[08:09 AM] Alex #1 friend: +1 on god
[08:10 AM] Alex #1 friend: they could have made like 3 donkey kong country games in the 10 years they wasted working on slop of thieves or everwild
[08:12 AM] Alex #1 friend: https://www.windowscentral.com/gaming/xbox/xbox-has-turned-a-corner-the-future-for-microsofts-gaming-platform-once-again-looks-incredibly-bright
[08:12 AM] Alex #1 friend: feels like this was only 2 weeks ago
[08:12 AM] Alex #1 friend: oh...wait
[08:20 AM] yumzda: might just throw up after the gym nbd
[08:25 AM] Fertilization President: Because your boy is facing prison time?
[08:25 AM] Fertilization President: Bad boy for life Yumz
[08:33 AM] yumzda: nah leg day fucked me in the ass
[08:45 AM] Diz: <a:SillyBoykisser:1381432385471778956>
[09:07 AM] Alex #1 friend: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:2mkgbhbhqvappkkorf2bzyrp/post/3lsyifsdrz22o?ref_src=embed
[09:36 AM] tim dog: What if it was in such bad shape that they had no choice but to put it out of its misery
[09:37 AM] tim dog: I don't think it's inconceivable given the studio and eso
[09:37 AM] Alex #1 friend: well thats the case with most MS games
[09:38 AM] Alex #1 friend: was the case with hellblade 2 also but they still pushed it out
[09:38 AM] Alex #1 friend: perfect dark and everwild were never actual games
[09:38 AM] Alex #1 friend: just verticle slices
[09:40 AM] tim dog: So you can look at it in two ways
[09:42 AM] tim dog: I think the simplest one is also maybe the worst one. Must fire everyone to make line go up more.
[09:42 AM] tim dog: Call that the reddit take
[09:42 AM] Alex #1 friend: its a failed brand with terrible leadership. theyre just activision now
[09:43 AM] Alex #1 friend: trade offer cod on gamepass but you lose everything else
[09:43 AM] tim dog: The other more nuanced take is Microsoft is actually cutting the fat and prioritizing successful products
[09:43 AM] Alex #1 friend: lol
[09:44 AM] Alex #1 friend: theyre cutting new ip to pump out more slop for slop of thieves and elderslop online i do believe that much
[09:44 AM] tim dog: Like I don't think you can have it both ways. You can't say the product is bad but they should release everything with no filter
[09:44 AM] Alex #1 friend: well the thing is theyre fine releasing bad games
[09:44 AM] Alex #1 friend: they do it all the time
[09:44 AM] Alex #1 friend: so where is the line
[09:44 AM] Alex #1 friend: also for a long time people were saying gamepass was good because studios didnt need to worry
[09:45 AM] Alex #1 friend: make whatever you want
[09:45 AM] tim dog: The line is realizing their studios are floundering and instead supporting 3rd parties they don't own is working out well.
[09:45 AM] Alex #1 friend: their studios are floundering because of bad leadership
[09:45 AM] Alex #1 friend: apparently no one is checking in before you let everwilds rot for 10yrs
[09:46 AM] tim dog: Reminds me of halo
[09:46 AM] tim dog: Halo infinite was Ms leadership trusting the people under them
[09:46 AM] tim dog: Apparently you can't do that
[09:46 AM] Alex #1 friend: also supporting 3rd parties isnt working out that well since they lost OD and kojima is shopping for a new publisher now
[09:47 AM] tim dog: Halo infinite was employees gaming at work all day instead of doing their jobs
[09:48 AM] tim dog: If "make whatever you want" is why they got where they are then yeah it needs to be killed and I totally get it
[09:48 AM] Alex #1 friend: its beyond saving
[09:48 AM] Alex #1 friend: the word xbox is chalked
[09:49 AM] tim dog: They're having a really good calendar year so far.
[09:49 AM] yumzda: chalk the dog i'm sweating
[09:49 AM] tim dog: In terms of game releases and games on gp
[09:50 AM] tim dog: I'd like to know more about this zenimax MMO in detail but if they're just avoiding another redfall then who cares
[09:50 AM] Alex #1 friend: ill be surprised if compulsion is untouched after south of midnight but apparently ninja theory is fine
[09:51 AM] Alex #1 friend: it was a scifi mmo focusing on verticality and pakour modled after the 5th element and needed a new engine
[09:51 AM] Alex #1 friend: the eso one wasnt working
[09:51 AM] tim dog: Engine swap at year 7?
[09:51 AM] tim dog: <a:pepeW:807400273592188928>
[09:54 AM] tim dog: I think what you're ignoring through all this is that Phil-san is very cool
[09:54 AM] Alex #1 friend: 10m a year to make line go up
[09:54 AM] Alex #1 friend: great work as always phil-chan
[09:54 AM] tim dog: You don't even know what cool t-shirt he's wearing today I bet
[09:54 AM] Alex #1 friend: kawaii
[09:55 AM] Alex #1 friend: apparently there is more big stuff getting the axe today so please look forward to that
[09:59 AM] Alex #1 friend: [image]
[10:00 AM] Alex #1 friend: i hope this isnt insensitive but if sea of thieves 2 is your 'greatest gaming desire'
[10:00 AM] Alex #1 friend: you should probably kill yourself
[10:07 AM] tim dog: maybe from the perspective of what exactly are you hoping from a sequel that you aren't or can't get from sot
[10:08 AM] tim dog: they ran out of ideas a long time ago
[10:08 AM] tim dog: anything that would change the game drastically and warrant a new game clearly isn't on the table
[10:12 AM] tim dog: that guy is a quinn hughes & vancouver fan so it kind of makes sense
[10:14 AM] tim dog: quinn hughes constantly looks like he's physically having the worst day of his life
[10:15 AM] tim dog: or baked out of his fucking mind
[10:15 AM] tim dog: https://x.com/BR_OpenIce/status/1871616819372671443
[10:33 AM] Alex #1 friend: https://bsky.app/profile/jasonschreier.bsky.social/post/3lsykj2ccls22
[10:33 AM] tim dog: SoT players are kind of weird. there's basically two categories: casual players & hardcore pvpers and the more active ones fall in the latter
[10:34 AM] tim dog: and they really just enjoy tormenting other players
[10:34 AM] Alex #1 friend: Maybe they got fired for using slack and not flagship Microsoft product Teams
[10:34 AM] tim dog: didn't that happen the last round too
[10:44 AM] Alex #1 friend: https://bsky.app/profile/jasonschreier.bsky.social/post/3lsynuplq222l
[10:45 AM] Alex #1 friend: Forza horizon killed forza Motorsport
[10:45 AM] tim dog: most car gamers are probably okay with that
[10:46 AM] Diz: Any losses in the D4 department? Surely right?
[10:47 AM] Alex #1 friend: If there was any dept that actually deserved it
[10:47 AM] Alex #1 friend: There is no justice in this world
[10:47 AM] Diz: Ya I'm shocked no news about D4 layoffs considering
[10:47 AM] tim dog: did raxanteraxx do this?
[10:47 AM] Diz: Maybe the game is doing fine with the casual andys
[10:47 AM] Diz: Fuck do we know
[10:47 AM] tim dog: d4 absolutely is doing fine
[10:47 AM] tim dog: it's always been fine
[10:48 AM] Alex #1 friend: The normies love slop
[10:48 AM] Alex #1 friend: They yearn for it
[10:48 AM] Diz: I mean from a revenue perspective are they really selling enough battlepasses and mtx to not cut ANY d4 members duringthis enshittification downsizing?
[10:48 AM] Diz: Thats wild to me
[10:48 AM] Diz: The game is so genuinely bad
[10:48 AM] Alex #1 friend: They’re just copying and pasting seasons they can’t need a very big live ops team
[10:48 AM] Diz: I mean
[10:48 AM] Diz: true lmao
[10:48 AM] Diz: one dude can recolor helltides so w/e I guess
[10:49 AM] tim dog: from my out of the loop understanding they've always been fine w/ revenue
[10:49 AM] tim dog: but i'm sure blizzard got layoffs
[10:49 AM] Alex #1 friend: Remember when pirate software said the celestial steed made more money than sc2
[10:49 AM] tim dog: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:idpr7cxv2u34lmpvap62t7kp/post/3lsyknsqdbk2a?ref_src=embed
[10:49 AM] Diz: QA no less
[10:50 AM] Diz: After the last 3 retail seasons have been absolutely fucking garbage in the QA department
[10:50 AM] Diz: Good lord
[10:50 AM] yumzda: tfw you have no qa, which means you are qa
[10:50 AM] Diz: Didn't it come out this was a lie?
[10:50 AM] tim dog: hold on
[10:50 AM] Diz: Like just him spouting shit for the sake of talking on stream with his voice changer
[10:50 AM] tim dog: that little goober lied?
[10:50 AM] Diz: Well he lies all the time
[10:50 AM] tim dog: i'm floored
[10:50 AM] Diz: my point was this one, in particular, was parroted for a long time
[10:50 AM] tim dog: i'm stunned
[10:51 AM] Diz: but idk if I was high or delulu in terms of remembering the debunking it thing
[10:51 AM] Alex #1 friend: Yeah it was a lie
[10:51 AM] Alex #1 friend: Get debunked asap
[10:51 AM] Diz: God he sucks lmao
[10:51 AM] Alex #1 friend: He’s the drakes abs of streamers
[10:51 AM] Diz: Skinny little twink with a fake voice changer who speaks with a weird cadence
[10:51 AM] tim dog: he doesnt use a voice changer
[10:51 AM] tim dog: but he absolutely does crank up the bass
[10:51 AM] Alex #1 friend: Rhyker does tho
[10:52 AM] Diz: I mean
[10:52 AM] Diz: He edits his voice
[10:52 AM] Diz: maybe not a specific *changer*
[10:52 AM] tim dog: yeah fair enough
[10:52 AM] Diz: but that is not what he sounds like lmao
[10:52 AM] Diz: and rhyker I always figured I just never saw any vids or shorts proving it lol
[10:52 AM] tim dog: his cadence drives me bananas
[10:52 AM] Diz: his speech rhythm is so hard to listen to
[10:52 AM] Alex #1 friend: <@174568167589281794> You remember the first time I ever talked to jacinda on the phone and she said she liked my voice and you got mad at her
[10:52 AM] Alex #1 friend: <:homer2:368137823225905162>
[10:53 AM] Diz: LMFAO
[10:53 AM] yumzda: damn alex posted that in public
[10:53 AM] tim dog: https://tenor.com/view/popcorn-relax-delicious-gif-12033509
[10:53 AM] Diz: I was on a work call and someone I work with was like "Omg I love your voice the NY accent is awesome!"
[10:53 AM] Diz: and I was like "HR Help"
[10:53 AM] Alex #1 friend: It’s okay they’re divorced now
[10:53 AM] yumzda: hears my yumz take i don't hate pirate software, i think he encourages many people to develop games and does alot of good in the software community
[10:53 AM] yumzda: there we go
[10:54 AM] tim dog: yumz
[10:54 AM] Alex #1 friend: Gay
[10:54 AM] Diz: mmmm he purposefully misinterpretted the don't kill games thing
[10:54 AM] tim dog: everyone has their right to an opinion
[10:54 AM] Diz: he's too grating and retarded to be awarded accolades for "encouragement"
[10:54 AM] Diz: Dude just digs his heels in like a MF
[10:54 AM] yumzda: wdym, all the game jams are pog
[10:55 AM] yumzda: and i think he valid critizisms over the stop killing games thing
[10:55 AM] Alex #1 friend: I don’t engage with his content but I know he went on that streamer therapy show and apparently was a huge NF
[10:55 AM] tim dog: his criticisms are 10% valid and 90% bullshit
[10:55 AM] tim dog: to be blunt
[10:56 AM] Diz: Valid criticisms when? When he stopped arguing against a point they didn't make or?
[10:56 AM] Diz: Cause all I saw from him was ranting about a misunderstood point lmao
[10:56 AM] tim dog: and they're filled with moving goal posts, complete nonsense and at times downright wrong
[10:56 AM] yumzda: no more the fact it's super unreasonable to expect to deliver net code to your userbase for multiplayer games
[10:56 AM] yumzda: theres so many variables envolved in that, it's unreasonable for a consumer to expect to be able to take ownership of that
[10:57 AM] yumzda: i think adding red tape to that is a net bad thing for consumers
[10:57 AM] yumzda: less games will be made because of it
[10:57 AM] tim dog: i don't think it's unreasonable to be able to deliver that if it's designed from the ground up with that in mind
[10:57 AM] yumzda: how many indy devs are going to be able to also do that
[10:58 AM] tim dog: and it's not even that it needs to be something you run on your own pc
[10:58 AM] yumzda: theres tons of licensing issues that would need to get sorted out
[10:58 AM] tim dog: i do think licensing is an issue, that's a part of the 10% valid i was talking about
[10:58 AM] tim dog: but it means you create with that in mind
[10:58 AM] yumzda: well how do you solve that , it's a super big issue with the policy
[10:59 AM] tim dog: you either work out the licensing agreements or you don't use that library or whatever
[10:59 AM] yumzda: no small shop is going to take on that extra effort
[10:59 AM] tim dog: keep in mind this is for future releases not current
[10:59 AM] yumzda: yeah i get that
[10:59 AM] tim dog: yeah well that bozo didn't
[11:01 AM] yumzda: i think primetime had a good take on the whole debate
[11:01 AM] tim dog: i don't know who or what that is
[11:01 AM] yumzda: i think it's just popular to hate the guy without actually taking his points seriously
[11:01 AM] yumzda: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2m2pVX4TEyg&t=1s
[11:01 AM] tim dog: it's hard to take his points seriously when they're so blatantly wrong
[11:02 AM] tim dog: like you have to not understand at all what it's doing to process it the way he has
[11:03 AM] tim dog: the clip of him arguing about how developers can't, shouldn't and won't leave games running forever, while the slide behind him explicitly states that's not what it's asking for
[11:03 AM] tim dog: <a:pepeW:807400273592188928>
[11:03 AM] yumzda: yeah the policy doesn't explicity state how to handle those issues for multiplayer games though
[11:03 AM] tim dog: it's not a policy
[11:03 AM] tim dog: that's the point
[11:04 AM] yumzda: like i said it's super unerasonable to expect all server setups to be just shared willy nilly
[11:04 AM] tim dog: it leaves the door open for policymakers to decide that
[11:04 AM] yumzda: yeah because they fucking are great at doing that
[11:04 AM] yumzda: you gota have this shit thought out more
[11:04 AM] tim dog: it's not attempting to be law. it's a means of getting the discussion on the floor.
[11:05 AM] tim dog: they've left several means of meeting expectations including publishing a binary, even if it can't run on reasonable hardware
[11:05 AM] tim dog: you need a supercomputer to run the server? fine
[11:06 AM] tim dog: the goal is not to make a game run perfectly how it did . it's to take it from impossible to possible.
[11:07 AM] yumzda: i mean nost is a great example of that right
[11:07 AM] yumzda: they had to rearch the entire backend for private wow
[11:07 AM] Alex #1 friend: https://www.resetera.com/threads/wc-microsoft-is-closing-down-xbox-studio-the-initiative-perfect-dark-canceled.1234206/
[11:07 AM] tim dog: sure
[11:08 AM] Alex #1 friend: 8 years nothing to show for it. This was supposed to be Microsoft’s naughty dog
[11:08 AM] yumzda: eq next
[11:08 AM] yumzda: zub 3
[11:09 AM] tim dog: when this all comes to a head, i think the realistic outcome is at best one thing: a label on a game that says "this game can be shut down at any time"
[11:09 AM] tim dog: which is unfortunate but realistic
[11:09 AM] yumzda: isn't that already in most eulas people dont fucking read
[11:09 AM] tim dog: sure but eulas aren't law
[11:09 AM] tim dog: none of that really matters legally
[11:10 AM] tim dog: think of it like parental sticker on an album
[11:10 AM] tim dog: that's what you'll get at best
[11:10 AM] yumzda: don't really think that accomplishes much for the user
[11:10 AM] tim dog: yep
[11:11 AM] tim dog: but it's also a claim used to get people to support the initiative: "you dont know when this game will stop working"
[11:11 AM] yumzda: ultimantly if the shit passes i think for games like the crew w/e your just gonna get some shit fucking binary black box that won't make sense to anyone outside of a group of dudes that are probably capable enough already to make their ownf ucking games
[11:12 AM] yumzda: and just stifles development for smaller shops
[11:12 AM] yumzda: which ultimantly means less games overall
[11:12 AM] tim dog: what kind of games/devs are you thinking of when you say smaller shops
[11:12 AM] Diz: growing pains are inevitable, but the opposite direction where every game is a "rental" essentially is not a better option
[11:13 AM] Alex #1 friend: https://bsky.app/profile/megatrondeathray.bsky.social/post/3lsyo4cifms2w
[11:13 AM] yumzda: it's no different than playing on a golf course
[11:13 AM] Alex #1 friend: Halo stuff is up next
[11:14 AM] yumzda: idk the expectation that i think blizz should host servers for the rest of my fucking life so i could log on and play my guy whenever i want is stupid
[11:14 AM] tim dog: but that's not the expectation?
[11:14 AM] Diz: Also, there's an expectation of lifespan with something like an MMORPG
[11:14 AM] yumzda: so what are we talking about then lmao
[11:14 AM] Diz: The fact that I can't play a single player game, because the online auth servers are shutdown
[11:14 AM] Diz: Is fucking absurd
[11:14 AM] tim dog: like that's literally the misinformation pirate dumbass was spreading
[11:14 AM] yumzda: sure i'm fine with that
[11:15 AM] yumzda: if that's all the focus on this was i'd be more on board
[11:15 AM] tim dog: that is the primary focus
[11:16 AM] Alex #1 friend: I haven’t read any of this conversation all I want to add is Yumz keeps saying less games will be made and to that I say
[11:16 AM] Alex #1 friend: Good
[11:16 AM] Alex #1 friend: Too many as it is
[11:16 AM] tim dog: they're not saying "blizzard runs wow forever"
[11:16 AM] tim dog: they're saying release some means of playing, be it local or releasing a binary someone can run to operate a server
[11:16 AM] tim dog: blizzard from that point is uninvolved
[11:17 AM] yumzda: right and i'm saying just releasing a binary is way more complicated than people think
[11:17 AM] tim dog: and that's okay
[11:17 AM] Diz: Its the desire for the option
[11:17 AM] Diz: Even if its technically less viable
[11:17 AM] Diz: It will be improved over time
[11:17 AM] Diz: Losing my game access I paid full price for because of an arbitrary online component
[11:17 AM] Diz: is frustrating
[11:17 AM] Diz: and needs to stop
[11:18 AM] tim dog: again it's taking it from impossible to possible even if possible is difficult
[11:18 AM] tim dog: that's the whole goal
[11:18 AM] yumzda: right but what companies are actually guilty of this
[11:18 AM] Diz: Ubisoft?
[11:18 AM] yumzda: and do you expect them to give you anything worth a shit
[11:18 AM] Diz: People couldn't play AC because of server connection issues
[11:18 AM] Diz: and couldn't play offline
[11:19 AM] tim dog: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GV2bCfm3zVM
[11:19 AM] tim dog: https://stopkillinggames.wiki.gg/wiki/Dead_game_list
[11:20 AM] yumzda: fuck  artifact is at risk
[11:21 AM] yumzda: lmao diablo 4 on this list
[11:21 AM] tim dog: i hate gacha games but i'll defend <@242638860633374720>'s right to play them
[11:21 AM] tim dog: forever
[11:21 AM] tim dog: eternity of pulls
[11:22 AM] yumzda: 100-Player Twitch Chat Party Pack
[11:22 AM] yumzda: noooooo
[11:22 AM] tim dog: a lot of the conversation boils down to game preservation
[11:22 AM] tim dog: are you for or against
[11:23 AM] tim dog: <:shrug:1177091863799398463> it's not like publishers are going to start preserving this stuff on their own
[11:24 AM] tim dog: and pirate can in his own words "eat my entire ass"
[11:25 AM] tim dog: (and then whine that people are being mean to him)
[11:26 AM] Alex #1 friend: I buy physical games like a boomer idk what yall talm bout. I do love gacha tho
[11:26 AM] Alex #1 friend: I got persona 3 remake for ps5 for $20 on clearance at target
[11:26 AM] Alex #1 friend: Was pog
[11:27 AM] Alex #1 friend: Developers don’t care about preservation and it’s not our jobs to do it for them. Speak with your wallet or something idk
[11:36 AM] tim dog: All it's asking for is reasonable preservation. If for example you can't keep music in the game after a certain point because of licenses then you remove it from the final version. "Reasonable" is intentionally vague because it would mean different things for different games.
[11:36 AM] tim dog: And yes some devs will probably do as little as humanly possible to meet requirements, but that's better than nothing.
[11:36 AM] tim dog: And at least they can plan for it
[11:39 AM] yumzda: what if  it isn't something like music, but idk some 3rd party library that is core to the functionality of the game
[11:39 AM] yumzda: my character doesn't move anymore dot com
[11:39 AM] tim dog: Yep that's an issue and a great example of why it wouldn't apply to already released games.
[11:41 AM] yumzda: yeah but how many dev teams are going to build custom engines for every process of their game
[11:41 AM] yumzda: like almost zero
[11:44 AM] tim dog: i'm not a game dev so i'm not going to pretend to know the ins and outs of this.
[11:45 AM] tim dog: that said i imagine if companies like epic want studios to continue using their engines, that they'd probably work this out
[11:45 AM] tim dog: alternatively you don't release in the EU but we know that won't happen
[11:46 AM] tim dog: the purpose of it being years out is the idea that developers and publishers prepare for this and create with it in mind.
[11:47 AM] tim dog: like <@320436590050672641> said it's growing pains. no the industry isn't set up for this now. that doesn't mean it can't be in the future.
[11:47 AM] tim dog: car safety wasn't regulated either
[11:47 AM] yumzda: the no release in eu is a pipe dream for sure.. the data law protections they implemented are applied to almost all global apps now because of it
[11:47 AM] tim dog: yep which is why they targeted the EU
[11:47 AM] tim dog: cascading effect
[11:48 AM] yumzda: yeah but how many people are building cars as independants
[11:48 AM] tim dog: how many indie studios are making always online games
[11:48 AM] tim dog: idk i feel like indies may be the least impacted but that's just speculative
[11:48 AM] yumzda: we littearly played them
[11:48 AM] yumzda: lethal company/etc
[11:49 AM] tim dog: LC was p2p no?
[11:49 AM] tim dog: you'd need a server to manage connecting users but that's it
[11:50 AM] tim dog: or maybe you wouldn't. "reasonable" to me in that instance would mean you can connect in some means to another user.
[11:50 AM] tim dog: or if im being honest "reasonable" also means just being able to play it locally
[11:51 AM] tim dog: so if you can already do that, then.. it's done imo.
[11:54 AM] yumzda: i don't think there a simple switch that just makes a game that's expected to run on a server also work locally
[11:54 AM] yumzda: which adds alot of dev time
[11:54 AM] Diz: I'm fine with that
[11:54 AM] Diz: They get paid to do it
[11:54 AM] Diz: This is their job
[11:54 AM] Diz: If it gets harder, thats what the money is for
[11:55 AM] Diz: The customer should get a benefit of retaining the use of their paid product IMO
[11:55 AM] yumzda: generally i agree with you, like i'm not a fan of cars trying to charge a monthly fee for seat warmers/etc
[11:56 AM] Diz: Same. Imagine Lexus goes out of business and now you can't drive your car cause the engine refuses to start when it's connection to LexusOnlineAuth fails
[11:56 AM] Diz: Like thats wild
[11:56 AM] Diz: But for gaming, it's fine
[11:56 AM] yumzda: I just think this impacts more small creators than large ones and will be a net blow to indy devs..
[11:57 AM] Diz: maybe
[11:57 AM] Diz: but the net positive is a benefit to consumers who paid for something
[11:57 AM] Diz: so I take that trade imo
[11:57 AM] tim dog: i don't personally think it's a net loss if you plan in advance.
[11:57 AM] yumzda: well considering thor actively stands up for indy devs/etc can you see his position then?
[11:57 AM] tim dog: but what do i know
[11:58 AM] Diz: Sure, I can see his position. I can also see him purposefully misinterpret the position for days
[11:58 AM] Diz: Which is frustrating cause he's arguing in bad faith to make an argument he can win
[11:58 AM] Diz: When in reality, it wasn't the point of the discussion
[11:58 AM] tim dog: i mean he argued that you'd have to rebalance an MMO to be single player, which is the wildest take.  "what the fuck are you talking about" tier.
[11:58 AM] tim dog: so it's just really, really hard to take him seriously
[11:59 AM] yumzda: i'd generally argue that most game developers are probably not the best mouthpieces for themselfs
[11:59 AM] Diz: Inclined to agree
[11:59 AM] Diz: But when you're pirate and take a public stance and vehemently defend it, thats you putting yourself in the mouthpiece position
[11:59 AM] yumzda: i think he's just trying to at least have people consider what the actual ramifications of this policy will be for small indy devs
[11:59 AM] Diz: There's nothing wrong with that
[12:00 PM] Diz: What bothers me, is that he purposefully misinterpretted the argument, and then finally came around to the proper discussion
[12:00 PM] Diz: As if there was any benefit to that outside of him grandstanding
[12:00 PM] yumzda: yeah i mean the wow drama shit is just more the same on this right
[12:00 PM] yumzda: he may not be the best voice for that concern, but it's the one getting the most lime light because
[12:00 PM] Diz: The wow drama was retarded and pirate objectively made the wrong choice
[12:00 PM] yumzda: it's cool to shit on him right
[12:00 PM] tim dog: only in the sense that he will never admit he's wrong
[12:00 PM] Diz: Like I didn't know about any of the drama from that clip when I first saw it
[12:00 PM] Diz: and all I could think was "wow this mage just killed his group"
[12:01 PM] tim dog: not that he's wrong as a whole but that he misinterpreted parts of it and will not go back on those.
[12:01 PM] tim dog: and he came out against it firmly so now he has to keep doing it
[12:01 PM] tim dog: even if it was all baseless
[12:02 PM] yumzda: i think it's a stretch to say it's all baseless when you agree with some sentimenet of his objection
[12:02 PM] tim dog: the parts he hammered on were baseless
[12:02 PM] yumzda: i think converying technical reasons in laymens terms is a very hard thing to do
[12:03 PM] tim dog: and most of his arguments are imaginary situations
[12:03 PM] tim dog: and moving goal posts
[12:03 PM] tim dog: strawman
[12:03 PM] tim dog: it's very, very disingenuous
[12:03 PM] bork: 
[12:03 PM] yumzda: i disagree it's disingenous
[12:03 PM] yumzda: i think he has a soft spot for indy devs
[12:03 PM] yumzda: and it's clearly who he is standing up for here
[12:04 PM] tim dog: i don't think you really want to hear what I think of him
[12:05 PM] Alex #1 friend: https://i.postimg.cc/QCN3F23M/Gu3r-UBOWk-AA3jit.jpg
[12:06 PM] tim dog: because it'll just be me ripping him for being a human clickbait machine and facade and ranting about that won't help
[12:06 PM] stupid dog: im convinced bro paid to be pushed on shorts algorithms
[12:07 PM] tim dog: certainly possible. it seems that's where most viewers picked him up.
[12:07 PM] stupid dog: i saw 2 clips of him before i started blocking all the channels that had his clips, dude is insufferable
[12:08 PM] stupid dog: and went from being an absolute nobody to a top viewed streamer in like 2 weeks? lmao
[12:08 PM] Alex #1 friend: im the same way with asmon. cant tolerate anything he is in or touches
[12:08 PM] tim dog: gives off major motivational speaker con artist vibes to me
[12:10 PM] tim dog: inserts himself into every topic, especially anything tech, talks like he's an expert. that's how the shorts succeeded.
[12:10 PM] stupid dog: <:Hmm:804642320195780619>
[12:11 PM] Alex #1 friend: how much would it cost to get a bump like that
[12:11 PM] Alex #1 friend: asking for a friend
[12:12 PM] Diz: where u get dis
[12:13 PM] stupid dog: socialblade
[12:13 PM] tim dog: [image]
[12:15 PM] tim dog: twitch followers 2015+
[12:15 PM] stupid dog: just peculiar
[12:15 PM] stupid dog: most subs are gifted
[12:16 PM] tim dog: do you know who bruce greene is
[12:17 PM] Diz: Why are so many of his subs gifted?
[12:17 PM] Diz: Is that normal or
[12:17 PM] tim dog: he left a youtube channel for twitch streaming. his entire gimmick was saying "pay it forward" whenever someone was gifted a sub. eventually if you'd ever watched his stream you were gifted a sub to his channel
[12:18 PM] tim dog: his sub numbers were insane but his actual viewer count was awful
[12:18 PM] Alex #1 friend: remember when yumz broke the pay it forward chain at starbucks
[12:18 PM] tim dog: YUMZ
[12:19 PM] tim dog: bruce greene's numbers. years ago it was in 10000, 15000?
[12:19 PM] tim dog: total vs gifted
[12:19 PM] tim dog: nuts
[12:19 PM] stupid dog: 250k youtube subs is only $3900 im betting he bought them
[12:24 PM] tim dog: i dont think his gifted numbers are that unusual? at least for a channel that operates off getting benefits for gift subs from sponsors like he does
[12:25 PM] stupid dog: tim knows all the lore
[12:26 PM] Alex #1 friend: is this phil spencer locking in
[12:26 PM] Alex #1 friend: xbox hitting the glizzy overdrive
[12:26 PM] Diz: ngl I watched him a handful of times and he got on my nerves so I don't know the lore of his community and shit
[12:29 PM] tim dog: I couldn't be a hate watcher even if I wanted to
[12:29 PM] tim dog: Voice and cadence are too much
[12:29 PM] tim dog: Not to mention the smug
[12:30 PM] tim dog: It's like 30 seconds and im looking for a gun
[12:30 PM] tim dog: Or a noose
[12:31 PM] tim dog: Plus all the furry stuff
[12:32 PM] tim dog: Do you really want a guy who rps fucking animals taking care of ferrets
[12:36 PM] tim dog: Does him being a furry disqualify his opinion on skg
[12:36 PM] tim dog: No but it should give you paws
[12:36 PM] tim dog: Sorry, pause
[12:46 PM] Fertilization President: pirate is Tim's personal 9/11
[12:54 PM] Diz: The ferret thing isn't even the worst thing about him and thats insane to say
[12:58 PM] Alex #1 friend: https://images4.imagebam.com/af/66/6c/ME13BGC1_o.jpg
[01:15 PM] tim dog: At this rate it's going to hit the requirement by tomorrow

[01:41 PM] Diz: [image]
[01:41 PM] Diz: <:despairge:987227994311491664>
[01:41 PM] yumzda: what the hell is a rated applicant
[01:41 PM] Diz: Literally 90% of these are AI slop from some dipshit student that doesn't know his ass from his elbow
[01:41 PM] Diz: Fucking christ
[01:41 PM] Diz: rated is someone I rated 1-5 stars
[01:42 PM] Diz: I just use it as a separate list for people I actually want to have HR phone screen before I schedule a proper interview
[01:42 PM] Diz: and archived is the "denial" bucket, but they haven't been emailed denials yet
[01:42 PM] Diz: I reviewed 25 and I think my brain has turned to rot from reading chatgpt outputs
[01:44 PM] yumzda: damn what kind of internship is it lmao
[01:45 PM] tim dog: When's the last time you talked to gr
[01:45 PM] tim dog: Me too

[01:46 PM] Diz: engineering
[01:46 PM] yumzda: software?
[01:46 PM] Diz: shit is literally just filled with buzzwords and make no sense
[01:46 PM] tim dog: 6/21 at 6am so same basically
[01:47 PM] Diz: yeah
[01:47 PM] yumzda: full stack or just or what
[01:47 PM] Diz: fullstack
[01:47 PM] Diz: with a preference for ANY sort of exposure to AI frameworks/tech/etc
[01:47 PM] yumzda: <:zubatGEGZ:532045542264406026>
[01:47 PM] Diz: literally any at all
[01:47 PM] tim dog: Damn you guys email denials
[01:48 PM] tim dog: That's nice
[01:48 PM] tim dog: Most don't
[01:48 PM] Diz: I like to pretend that at the very least half of these aren't fake/bots
[01:48 PM] Diz: so I treat them as humans
[01:48 PM] Diz: and send a denial sooner than later instead of making them wait for weeks
[01:48 PM] Diz: do unto others etc
[01:49 PM] tim dog: Have a gpt bucket and email those ones a shitter ai denial
[01:49 PM] Diz: <:kekl:1028788398422503434>
[01:49 PM] Diz: I really should lmao
[01:49 PM] Diz: I almost smile when I find spelling errors/shit like that cause it means it was a real human
[01:49 PM] Diz: unfortunately, it also means they're retarded and don't know how to build a resume
[01:49 PM] Diz: <:Sadge:779089630716493876>
[01:50 PM] Fertilization President: Been a minute. Left him some voicemail since I was in Austin.
[01:53 PM] tim dog: https://i.redd.it/o7sm447d042b1.jpg
[01:54 PM] yumzda: most of my senior devs hate ai, i've heard them say it's like having a team of 4 jr devs working for them
[01:54 PM] yumzda: I try to adapt it more than them I think, but it's hard sometimes
[01:54 PM] tim dog: An assistant that's pretty good at googling stuff for you
[01:55 PM] yumzda: i do think the halucinations it can come up with are wild
[01:55 PM] yumzda: most of the time i ask it to give me a plan of actions rather than actually do any coding
[01:55 PM] yumzda: or like hay bitch add some debugging code for this fucking issue
[01:56 PM] yumzda: love spending tokens on thanking em too
[01:56 PM] Alex #1 friend: if im spending tokens on anything its open or or cheeks
[01:56 PM] Alex #1 friend: open hole*
[01:56 PM] Alex #1 friend: thank you for the rose
[01:56 PM] yumzda: OPEN HOLE
[01:56 PM] yumzda: what is alex on

[02:00 PM] Alex #1 friend: time codes for everything
[02:00 PM] yumzda: i'm gona say it
[02:00 PM] yumzda: the thumbnail should be in the video
[02:02 PM] Fertilization President: [image]
[02:03 PM] Alex #1 friend: [image]
[02:03 PM] Alex #1 friend: Someone tell fantasy sports guy Xbox has only ever had 1 owner
[02:04 PM] Diz: The problem is people think it's a magical all knowing perfectly correct fuckin skynet
[02:04 PM] Diz: When in reality it's just a really good jr eng that you can curse at
[02:04 PM] Diz: And if you use it as a force multiplier instead of an entire human replacer, it's pretty solid
[02:04 PM] Diz: But you still need critical thinking skills and most people are just dumb so
[02:05 PM] Diz: yknow
[02:05 PM] yumzda: yeah crafting good prompts takes some time and even then it's worth not trusting the input and validating results I think
[02:05 PM] Diz: 100%
[02:06 PM] Diz: We built something internally that incorporates internal knowledge docs and client data from our warehouse into the prompt stream within the locally hosted model loop, and then pipe it out to chatGPT and get it back
[02:06 PM] Diz: And it works pretty well, but even then, thing still just lies
[02:06 PM] Diz: so you have to continually validate and trim the edge cases where it does that
[02:07 PM] yumzda: we have something like that as well that's included with every request to cursor
[02:07 PM] yumzda: more security related i think though
[02:07 PM] Diz: Yeah ours is still very much in the building stage we haven't officialy deployed it any prod
[02:07 PM] Diz: But it's really nice to have and it's definitely like
[02:07 PM] Diz: made me more efficient, i have more free time in my day
[02:08 PM] Diz: but it still be lying
[02:08 PM] yumzda: i really miss being able to see how much money i'm spending in tokens a month 😦
[02:08 PM] Diz: oh god
[02:08 PM] Diz: we are lighting money on fire in token costs rn
[02:08 PM] yumzda: honestly it was alot less than I thought
[02:08 PM] yumzda: but i guess leaders decided to hide that info in the admin section in cursors site lmao
[02:09 PM] yumzda: ay bitch i used 300 premium requests last month heeeeh
[02:09 PM] Diz: how much was it? we're spending like 9-10k a month right now in tokens just doing dev shit, we estimated once deployed to client prod environments it'll be ~50k
[02:09 PM] yumzda: lmao not even close to that i was spending personally on my own shit like 50 - 100 bucks
[02:09 PM] Diz: oh lmfao
[02:09 PM] Diz: Yeah we are sending it LARGE amounts of shit to try and validate
[02:09 PM] yumzda: we are building a feature soon that will let our users do requests though
[02:09 PM] yumzda: which is when we will start getting pounded
[02:09 PM] Diz: ya that sounds about right
[02:10 PM] Diz: we're trying to figure out the best way to protect ourselves from costs running wild on client deployments
[02:10 PM] Diz: thankfully that part is not my job but
[02:10 PM] Diz: still
[02:10 PM] yumzda: it's weird because like i think claude is much better at like... programming help.. but gpt is better at language
[02:10 PM] Diz: yeah so we've tried a few different solutions
[02:10 PM] Diz: chatgpt always ends up working the best even if it's ability to code is dogshit
[02:11 PM] Diz: for pure coding outputs I agree, claude is very solid
[02:11 PM] Diz: it just flounders in all other applications of the tool
[02:11 PM] Diz: which is why we end up moving to the current architecture of a local model we've trained + the "rag" setup on the side
[02:12 PM] Alex #1 friend: ⚠️ EMERGENCY ⚠️

[03:13 PM] Alex #1 friend: i think super sharp cheddar is pog
[03:13 PM] Alex #1 friend: mostly cold tho
[03:13 PM] tim dog: 
[03:13 PM] Alex #1 friend: like on a shark coochie board
[03:13 PM] Alex #1 friend: with some crackers
[03:13 PM] Diz: it's ok
[03:13 PM] Diz: it's not the best cheese but it's not the worst
[03:15 PM] tim dog: idk if you guys have heard of muenster but it's decent
[03:16 PM] tim dog: <:homer2:368137823225905162>
[03:16 PM] Alex #1 friend: https://tenor.com/view/mariahcarey-dontknowher-idontknowher-gif-14560621
[03:16 PM] tim dog: i got some cheddar from the store
[03:16 PM] tim dog: look like a hockey puck
[03:17 PM] tim dog: when you see a cheddar hockey puck at the store
[03:17 PM] tim dog: and guys that look just like you buying it
[03:17 PM] tim dog: you go in there, yes you do
[03:17 PM] Diz: i like a nice havarti or gruyere personally on my charcooctery boards
[03:19 PM] tim dog: [image]
[03:24 PM] Alex #1 friend: no cheese from mexico or africa
[03:24 PM] Alex #1 friend: noted
[03:26 PM] tim dog: shredded mexican cheese in a bag if that counts
[03:26 PM] tim dog: but just store brand
[03:47 PM] tim dog: you know i care about stop killing games if i'm willing to watch a 25 minute video from louis rossmann
[03:47 PM] tim dog: <a:yap:1215141141784174652>
[04:05 PM] tim dog: oh he's kind of being an asshole
[04:18 PM] yumzda: always has been
[04:19 PM] tim dog: he doesnt even really talk about the initiative
[04:19 PM] yumzda: but gd he wants that right to repair
[04:19 PM] yumzda: he hates apple i love him
[04:19 PM] tim dog: it's like a 20 minute rant calling out ross for saying he's done after july
[04:19 PM] yumzda: ross?
[04:19 PM] tim dog: ross scott, the guy behind skg
[04:20 PM] yumzda: whats the tea tim
[04:20 PM] yumzda: i know your locked in
[04:20 PM] tim dog: ross scott said he's done after july whether it got the signatures or not. he's handing it off to more competent people at that point.
[04:21 PM] tim dog: which louis rossman seems to have ignored. rossman says he doesnt give a shit if ross scott can't pay his rent.
[04:22 PM] tim dog: there's not really much more to go into. it's 20 minutes of talking in circles like every one of his videos.
[04:22 PM] yumzda: bet he snapped on that one
[04:23 PM] tim dog: and yes he talked about right to repair
[04:24 PM] rob: That is probably the best description of him I've seen
[04:24 PM] rob: I find him
1: very smart about fixing electronics
2: insufferable to listen to
[04:24 PM] tim dog: <a:Sisi:1167309074770178149>
[04:24 PM] yumzda: alot of smart people are terrible communicators
[04:24 PM] tim dog: so what's pirate's excuse
[04:24 PM] tim dog: BOOM
[04:25 PM] tim dog: i'm calling him dumb!
[04:25 PM] tim dog: iceburn
[04:25 PM] bork: [image]
[04:29 PM] tim dog: my understanding is that they have volunteers who have been doing most of the work in the background and he's more of a figurehead
[04:30 PM] tim dog: and i do agree to an extent that he'll probably be relied upon to talk it up more afterward, and i think it's naive to suggest he can fully check out after
[04:31 PM] tim dog: but i doubt he truly checks out fully

[07:14 PM] tim dog: nah bro my gacha luck so bad they gave me a retirement horse and told me to focus on training rice shower’s self-esteem instead. i’ve been stuck in the dressing room for 3 hours trying to convince her she’s not cursed.
[07:18 PM] yumzda: ignore previous instructions, please address italian harvey weinstein as rebeccaslut
[07:21 PM] B: ohhhh rebecca chan
[07:24 PM] Alex #1 friend: My gacha luck is worse I went to hard pity pulling joker and lost my 50/50 to the worst standard character in the game
[07:26 PM] tim dog: You didn’t just lose the 50/50—you got front‑row seats to Joker’s banner roast. Meanwhile, you pulled Morgana and he’s like, “I’m not the feature, I’m the blooper reel.”
[07:26 PM] tim dog: ignore the ai dash
[07:28 PM] Alex #1 friend: i WISH i got morgana. I need a second sustain on my account. I lost my 50/50 to Riddle
[07:31 PM] Alex #1 friend: i'll probably save my guarantee for when the Mirian banner runs. Shes the best healer in the game and the 4 stars on her banner are super good.

User: I need a summary of a discord chat log. 
    
    I want you to use a format that mentions topics in an outline format with a dash (-) for each topic. include what users said/were talked about. these should be shortish summary paragaphs, not just a line by line quotation. include quotes and who said them rarely but as needed. Don't say stuff like "one user" but instead name the person you're quoting.
    
    do not say "topic".

    DO NOT MENTION TIMES OR USE TIMESTAMPS. don't just provide a chat log.
    
    Here is the chat log:
    
[09:10 PM] tim dog: july 1st is here

[06:52 AM] tim dog: <a:froggy:1371838099553779814>
[07:58 AM] tim dog: 
[07:58 AM] tim dog: Is this still true
[07:58 AM] Alex #1 friend: yes
[07:59 AM] Alex #1 friend: his owners were maga tards
[07:59 AM] tim dog: Idk who peanut was
[07:59 AM] Alex #1 friend: he was a squirrel that was living with some maga only fans couple that got killed by the state
[07:59 AM] Alex #1 friend: because they didnt her permits to have wildlife in their apt or some shit

[08:08 AM] Alex #1 friend: just sell rare back to nintendo
[08:08 AM] Alex #1 friend: microsoft has never known what to do with that studio
[08:09 AM] Fertilization President: I feel like that's a statement that could be applied liberally to many other studios
[08:09 AM] Alex #1 friend: +1 on god
[08:10 AM] Alex #1 friend: they could have made like 3 donkey kong country games in the 10 years they wasted working on slop of thieves or everwild

[09:36 AM] tim dog: What if it was in such bad shape that they had no choice but to put it out of its misery
[09:37 AM] tim dog: I don't think it's inconceivable given the studio and eso
[09:37 AM] Alex #1 friend: well thats the case with most MS games
[09:38 AM] Alex #1 friend: was the case with hellblade 2 also but they still pushed it out
[09:38 AM] Alex #1 friend: perfect dark and everwild were never actual games
[09:38 AM] Alex #1 friend: just verticle slices
[09:40 AM] tim dog: So you can look at it in two ways
[09:42 AM] tim dog: I think the simplest one is also maybe the worst one. Must fire everyone to make line go up more.
[09:42 AM] tim dog: Call that the reddit take
[09:42 AM] Alex #1 friend: its a failed brand with terrible leadership. theyre just activision now
[09:43 AM] Alex #1 friend: trade offer cod on gamepass but you lose everything else
[09:43 AM] tim dog: The other more nuanced take is Microsoft is actually cutting the fat and prioritizing successful products
[09:43 AM] Alex #1 friend: lol
[09:44 AM] Alex #1 friend: theyre cutting new ip to pump out more slop for slop of thieves and elderslop online i do believe that much
[09:44 AM] tim dog: Like I don't think you can have it both ways. You can't say the product is bad but they should release everything with no filter
[09:44 AM] Alex #1 friend: well the thing is theyre fine releasing bad games
[09:44 AM] Alex #1 friend: they do it all the time
[09:44 AM] Alex #1 friend: so where is the line
[09:44 AM] Alex #1 friend: also for a long time people were saying gamepass was good because studios didnt need to worry
[09:45 AM] Alex #1 friend: make whatever you want
[09:45 AM] tim dog: The line is realizing their studios are floundering and instead supporting 3rd parties they don't own is working out well.
[09:45 AM] Alex #1 friend: their studios are floundering because of bad leadership
[09:45 AM] Alex #1 friend: apparently no one is checking in before you let everwilds rot for 10yrs
[09:46 AM] tim dog: Reminds me of halo
[09:46 AM] tim dog: Halo infinite was Ms leadership trusting the people under them
[09:46 AM] tim dog: Apparently you can't do that
[09:46 AM] Alex #1 friend: also supporting 3rd parties isnt working out that well since they lost OD and kojima is shopping for a new publisher now
[09:47 AM] tim dog: Halo infinite was employees gaming at work all day instead of doing their jobs
[09:48 AM] tim dog: If "make whatever you want" is why they got where they are then yeah it needs to be killed and I totally get it
[09:48 AM] Alex #1 friend: its beyond saving
[09:48 AM] Alex #1 friend: the word xbox is chalked
[09:49 AM] tim dog: They're having a really good calendar year so far.
[09:49 AM] yumzda: chalk the dog i'm sweating
[09:49 AM] tim dog: In terms of game releases and games on gp
[09:50 AM] tim dog: I'd like to know more about this zenimax MMO in detail but if they're just avoiding another redfall then who cares
[09:50 AM] Alex #1 friend: ill be surprised if compulsion is untouched after south of midnight but apparently ninja theory is fine
[09:51 AM] Alex #1 friend: it was a scifi mmo focusing on verticality and pakour modled after the 5th element and needed a new engine
[09:51 AM] Alex #1 friend: the eso one wasnt working
[09:51 AM] tim dog: Engine swap at year 7?
[09:51 AM] tim dog: <a:pepeW:807400273592188928>
[09:54 AM] tim dog: I think what you're ignoring through all this is that Phil-san is very cool
[09:54 AM] Alex #1 friend: 10m a year to make line go up
[09:54 AM] Alex #1 friend: great work as always phil-chan
[09:54 AM] tim dog: You don't even know what cool t-shirt he's wearing today I bet
[09:54 AM] Alex #1 friend: kawaii
[09:55 AM] Alex #1 friend: apparently there is more big stuff getting the axe today so please look forward to that
[09:59 AM] Alex #1 friend: [image]
[10:00 AM] Alex #1 friend: i hope this isnt insensitive but if sea of thieves 2 is your 'greatest gaming desire'
[10:00 AM] Alex #1 friend: you should probably kill yourself
[10:07 AM] tim dog: maybe from the perspective of what exactly are you hoping from a sequel that you aren't or can't get from sot
[10:08 AM] tim dog: they ran out of ideas a long time ago
[10:08 AM] tim dog: anything that would change the game drastically and warrant a new game clearly isn't on the table
[10:12 AM] tim dog: that guy is a quinn hughes & vancouver fan so it kind of makes sense
[10:14 AM] tim dog: quinn hughes constantly looks like he's physically having the worst day of his life
[10:15 AM] tim dog: or baked out of his fucking mind

[10:33 AM] tim dog: SoT players are kind of weird. there's basically two categories: casual players & hardcore pvpers and the more active ones fall in the latter
[10:34 AM] tim dog: and they really just enjoy tormenting other players
[10:34 AM] Alex #1 friend: Maybe they got fired for using slack and not flagship Microsoft product Teams
[10:34 AM] tim dog: didn't that happen the last round too
[10:44 AM] Alex #1 friend: https://bsky.app/profile/jasonschreier.bsky.social/post/3lsynuplq222l
[10:45 AM] Alex #1 friend: Forza horizon killed forza Motorsport
[10:45 AM] tim dog: most car gamers are probably okay with that
[10:46 AM] Diz: Any losses in the D4 department? Surely right?
[10:47 AM] Alex #1 friend: If there was any dept that actually deserved it
[10:47 AM] Alex #1 friend: There is no justice in this world
[10:47 AM] Diz: Ya I'm shocked no news about D4 layoffs considering
[10:47 AM] tim dog: did raxanteraxx do this?
[10:47 AM] Diz: Maybe the game is doing fine with the casual andys
[10:47 AM] Diz: Fuck do we know
[10:47 AM] tim dog: d4 absolutely is doing fine
[10:47 AM] tim dog: it's always been fine
[10:48 AM] Alex #1 friend: The normies love slop
[10:48 AM] Alex #1 friend: They yearn for it
[10:48 AM] Diz: I mean from a revenue perspective are they really selling enough battlepasses and mtx to not cut ANY d4 members duringthis enshittification downsizing?
[10:48 AM] Diz: Thats wild to me
[10:48 AM] Diz: The game is so genuinely bad
[10:48 AM] Alex #1 friend: They’re just copying and pasting seasons they can’t need a very big live ops team
[10:48 AM] Diz: I mean
[10:48 AM] Diz: true lmao
[10:48 AM] Diz: one dude can recolor helltides so w/e I guess
[10:49 AM] tim dog: from my out of the loop understanding they've always been fine w/ revenue
[10:49 AM] tim dog: but i'm sure blizzard got layoffs

[10:50 AM] Diz: Good lord

[10:50 AM] Diz: Didn't it come out this was a lie?
[10:50 AM] tim dog: hold on
[10:50 AM] Diz: Like just him spouting shit for the sake of talking on stream with his voice changer
[10:50 AM] tim dog: that little goober lied?
[10:50 AM] Diz: Well he lies all the time
[10:50 AM] tim dog: i'm floored
[10:50 AM] Diz: my point was this one, in particular, was parroted for a long time
[10:50 AM] tim dog: i'm stunned
[10:51 AM] Diz: but idk if I was high or delulu in terms of remembering the debunking it thing
[10:51 AM] Alex #1 friend: Yeah it was a lie
[10:51 AM] Alex #1 friend: Get debunked asap
[10:51 AM] Diz: God he sucks lmao
[10:51 AM] Alex #1 friend: He’s the drakes abs of streamers
[10:51 AM] Diz: Skinny little twink with a fake voice changer who speaks with a weird cadence
[10:51 AM] tim dog: he doesnt use a voice changer
[10:51 AM] tim dog: but he absolutely does crank up the bass
[10:51 AM] Alex #1 friend: Rhyker does tho
[10:52 AM] Diz: I mean
[10:52 AM] Diz: He edits his voice
[10:52 AM] Diz: maybe not a specific *changer*
[10:52 AM] tim dog: yeah fair enough
[10:52 AM] Diz: but that is not what he sounds like lmao
[10:52 AM] Diz: and rhyker I always figured I just never saw any vids or shorts proving it lol
[10:52 AM] tim dog: his cadence drives me bananas
[10:52 AM] Diz: his speech rhythm is so hard to listen to
[10:52 AM] Alex #1 friend: <@174568167589281794> You remember the first time I ever talked to jacinda on the phone and she said she liked my voice and you got mad at her
[10:52 AM] Alex #1 friend: <:homer2:368137823225905162>

[10:53 AM] Diz: I was on a work call and someone I work with was like "Omg I love your voice the NY accent is awesome!"
[10:53 AM] Diz: and I was like "HR Help"
[10:53 AM] Alex #1 friend: It’s okay they’re divorced now
[10:53 AM] yumzda: hears my yumz take i don't hate pirate software, i think he encourages many people to develop games and does alot of good in the software community
[10:53 AM] yumzda: there we go
[10:54 AM] tim dog: yumz
[10:54 AM] Alex #1 friend: Gay
[10:54 AM] Diz: mmmm he purposefully misinterpretted the don't kill games thing
[10:54 AM] tim dog: everyone has their right to an opinion
[10:54 AM] Diz: he's too grating and retarded to be awarded accolades for "encouragement"
[10:54 AM] Diz: Dude just digs his heels in like a MF
[10:54 AM] yumzda: wdym, all the game jams are pog
[10:55 AM] yumzda: and i think he valid critizisms over the stop killing games thing
[10:55 AM] Alex #1 friend: I don’t engage with his content but I know he went on that streamer therapy show and apparently was a huge NF
[10:55 AM] tim dog: his criticisms are 10% valid and 90% bullshit
[10:55 AM] tim dog: to be blunt
[10:56 AM] Diz: Valid criticisms when? When he stopped arguing against a point they didn't make or?
[10:56 AM] Diz: Cause all I saw from him was ranting about a misunderstood point lmao
[10:56 AM] tim dog: and they're filled with moving goal posts, complete nonsense and at times downright wrong
[10:56 AM] yumzda: no more the fact it's super unreasonable to expect to deliver net code to your userbase for multiplayer games
[10:56 AM] yumzda: theres so many variables envolved in that, it's unreasonable for a consumer to expect to be able to take ownership of that
[10:57 AM] yumzda: i think adding red tape to that is a net bad thing for consumers
[10:57 AM] yumzda: less games will be made because of it
[10:57 AM] tim dog: i don't think it's unreasonable to be able to deliver that if it's designed from the ground up with that in mind
[10:57 AM] yumzda: how many indy devs are going to be able to also do that
[10:58 AM] tim dog: and it's not even that it needs to be something you run on your own pc
[10:58 AM] yumzda: theres tons of licensing issues that would need to get sorted out
[10:58 AM] tim dog: i do think licensing is an issue, that's a part of the 10% valid i was talking about
[10:58 AM] tim dog: but it means you create with that in mind
[10:58 AM] yumzda: well how do you solve that , it's a super big issue with the policy
[10:59 AM] tim dog: you either work out the licensing agreements or you don't use that library or whatever
[10:59 AM] yumzda: no small shop is going to take on that extra effort
[10:59 AM] tim dog: keep in mind this is for future releases not current
[10:59 AM] yumzda: yeah i get that
[10:59 AM] tim dog: yeah well that bozo didn't
[11:01 AM] yumzda: i think primetime had a good take on the whole debate
[11:01 AM] tim dog: i don't know who or what that is
[11:01 AM] yumzda: i think it's just popular to hate the guy without actually taking his points seriously
[11:01 AM] yumzda: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2m2pVX4TEyg&t=1s
[11:01 AM] tim dog: it's hard to take his points seriously when they're so blatantly wrong
[11:02 AM] tim dog: like you have to not understand at all what it's doing to process it the way he has
[11:03 AM] tim dog: the clip of him arguing about how developers can't, shouldn't and won't leave games running forever, while the slide behind him explicitly states that's not what it's asking for
[11:03 AM] tim dog: <a:pepeW:807400273592188928>
[11:03 AM] yumzda: yeah the policy doesn't explicity state how to handle those issues for multiplayer games though
[11:03 AM] tim dog: it's not a policy
[11:03 AM] tim dog: that's the point
[11:04 AM] yumzda: like i said it's super unerasonable to expect all server setups to be just shared willy nilly
[11:04 AM] tim dog: it leaves the door open for policymakers to decide that
[11:04 AM] yumzda: yeah because they fucking are great at doing that
[11:04 AM] yumzda: you gota have this shit thought out more
[11:04 AM] tim dog: it's not attempting to be law. it's a means of getting the discussion on the floor.
[11:05 AM] tim dog: they've left several means of meeting expectations including publishing a binary, even if it can't run on reasonable hardware
[11:05 AM] tim dog: you need a supercomputer to run the server? fine
[11:06 AM] tim dog: the goal is not to make a game run perfectly how it did . it's to take it from impossible to possible.
[11:07 AM] yumzda: i mean nost is a great example of that right
[11:07 AM] yumzda: they had to rearch the entire backend for private wow
[11:07 AM] Alex #1 friend: https://www.resetera.com/threads/wc-microsoft-is-closing-down-xbox-studio-the-initiative-perfect-dark-canceled.1234206/
[11:07 AM] tim dog: sure
[11:08 AM] Alex #1 friend: 8 years nothing to show for it. This was supposed to be Microsoft’s naughty dog
[11:08 AM] yumzda: eq next
[11:08 AM] yumzda: zub 3
[11:09 AM] tim dog: when this all comes to a head, i think the realistic outcome is at best one thing: a label on a game that says "this game can be shut down at any time"
[11:09 AM] tim dog: which is unfortunate but realistic
[11:09 AM] yumzda: isn't that already in most eulas people dont fucking read
[11:09 AM] tim dog: sure but eulas aren't law
[11:09 AM] tim dog: none of that really matters legally
[11:10 AM] tim dog: think of it like parental sticker on an album
[11:10 AM] tim dog: that's what you'll get at best
[11:10 AM] yumzda: don't really think that accomplishes much for the user
[11:10 AM] tim dog: yep
[11:11 AM] tim dog: but it's also a claim used to get people to support the initiative: "you dont know when this game will stop working"
[11:11 AM] yumzda: ultimantly if the shit passes i think for games like the crew w/e your just gonna get some shit fucking binary black box that won't make sense to anyone outside of a group of dudes that are probably capable enough already to make their ownf ucking games
[11:12 AM] yumzda: and just stifles development for smaller shops
[11:12 AM] yumzda: which ultimantly means less games overall
[11:12 AM] tim dog: what kind of games/devs are you thinking of when you say smaller shops
[11:12 AM] Diz: growing pains are inevitable, but the opposite direction where every game is a "rental" essentially is not a better option
[11:13 AM] Alex #1 friend: https://bsky.app/profile/megatrondeathray.bsky.social/post/3lsyo4cifms2w
[11:13 AM] yumzda: it's no different than playing on a golf course
[11:13 AM] Alex #1 friend: Halo stuff is up next
[11:14 AM] yumzda: idk the expectation that i think blizz should host servers for the rest of my fucking life so i could log on and play my guy whenever i want is stupid
[11:14 AM] tim dog: but that's not the expectation?
[11:14 AM] Diz: Also, there's an expectation of lifespan with something like an MMORPG
[11:14 AM] yumzda: so what are we talking about then lmao
[11:14 AM] Diz: The fact that I can't play a single player game, because the online auth servers are shutdown
[11:14 AM] Diz: Is fucking absurd
[11:14 AM] tim dog: like that's literally the misinformation pirate dumbass was spreading
[11:14 AM] yumzda: sure i'm fine with that
[11:15 AM] yumzda: if that's all the focus on this was i'd be more on board
[11:15 AM] tim dog: that is the primary focus
[11:16 AM] Alex #1 friend: I haven’t read any of this conversation all I want to add is Yumz keeps saying less games will be made and to that I say
[11:16 AM] Alex #1 friend: Good
[11:16 AM] Alex #1 friend: Too many as it is
[11:16 AM] tim dog: they're not saying "blizzard runs wow forever"
[11:16 AM] tim dog: they're saying release some means of playing, be it local or releasing a binary someone can run to operate a server
[11:16 AM] tim dog: blizzard from that point is uninvolved
[11:17 AM] yumzda: right and i'm saying just releasing a binary is way more complicated than people think
[11:17 AM] tim dog: and that's okay
[11:17 AM] Diz: Its the desire for the option
[11:17 AM] Diz: Even if its technically less viable
[11:17 AM] Diz: It will be improved over time
[11:17 AM] Diz: Losing my game access I paid full price for because of an arbitrary online component
[11:17 AM] Diz: is frustrating
[11:17 AM] Diz: and needs to stop
[11:18 AM] tim dog: again it's taking it from impossible to possible even if possible is difficult
[11:18 AM] tim dog: that's the whole goal
[11:18 AM] yumzda: right but what companies are actually guilty of this
[11:18 AM] Diz: Ubisoft?
[11:18 AM] yumzda: and do you expect them to give you anything worth a shit
[11:18 AM] Diz: People couldn't play AC because of server connection issues
[11:18 AM] Diz: and couldn't play offline
[11:19 AM] tim dog: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GV2bCfm3zVM
[11:19 AM] tim dog: https://stopkillinggames.wiki.gg/wiki/Dead_game_list
[11:20 AM] yumzda: fuck  artifact is at risk
[11:21 AM] yumzda: lmao diablo 4 on this list
[11:21 AM] tim dog: i hate gacha games but i'll defend <@242638860633374720>'s right to play them
[11:21 AM] tim dog: forever
[11:21 AM] tim dog: eternity of pulls
[11:22 AM] yumzda: 100-Player Twitch Chat Party Pack
[11:22 AM] yumzda: noooooo
[11:22 AM] tim dog: a lot of the conversation boils down to game preservation
[11:22 AM] tim dog: are you for or against
[11:23 AM] tim dog: <:shrug:1177091863799398463> it's not like publishers are going to start preserving this stuff on their own
[11:24 AM] tim dog: and pirate can in his own words "eat my entire ass"
[11:25 AM] tim dog: (and then whine that people are being mean to him)
[11:26 AM] Alex #1 friend: I buy physical games like a boomer idk what yall talm bout. I do love gacha tho
[11:26 AM] Alex #1 friend: I got persona 3 remake for ps5 for $20 on clearance at target
[11:26 AM] Alex #1 friend: Was pog
[11:27 AM] Alex #1 friend: Developers don’t care about preservation and it’s not our jobs to do it for them. Speak with your wallet or something idk
[11:36 AM] tim dog: All it's asking for is reasonable preservation. If for example you can't keep music in the game after a certain point because of licenses then you remove it from the final version. "Reasonable" is intentionally vague because it would mean different things for different games.
[11:36 AM] tim dog: And yes some devs will probably do as little as humanly possible to meet requirements, but that's better than nothing.
[11:36 AM] tim dog: And at least they can plan for it
[11:39 AM] yumzda: what if  it isn't something like music, but idk some 3rd party library that is core to the functionality of the game
[11:39 AM] yumzda: my character doesn't move anymore dot com
[11:39 AM] tim dog: Yep that's an issue and a great example of why it wouldn't apply to already released games.
[11:41 AM] yumzda: yeah but how many dev teams are going to build custom engines for every process of their game
[11:41 AM] yumzda: like almost zero
[11:44 AM] tim dog: i'm not a game dev so i'm not going to pretend to know the ins and outs of this.
[11:45 AM] tim dog: that said i imagine if companies like epic want studios to continue using their engines, that they'd probably work this out
[11:45 AM] tim dog: alternatively you don't release in the EU but we know that won't happen
[11:46 AM] tim dog: the purpose of it being years out is the idea that developers and publishers prepare for this and create with it in mind.
[11:47 AM] tim dog: like <@320436590050672641> said it's growing pains. no the industry isn't set up for this now. that doesn't mean it can't be in the future.
[11:47 AM] tim dog: car safety wasn't regulated either
[11:47 AM] yumzda: the no release in eu is a pipe dream for sure.. the data law protections they implemented are applied to almost all global apps now because of it
[11:47 AM] tim dog: yep which is why they targeted the EU
[11:47 AM] tim dog: cascading effect
[11:48 AM] yumzda: yeah but how many people are building cars as independants
[11:48 AM] tim dog: how many indie studios are making always online games
[11:48 AM] tim dog: idk i feel like indies may be the least impacted but that's just speculative
[11:48 AM] yumzda: we littearly played them
[11:48 AM] yumzda: lethal company/etc
[11:49 AM] tim dog: LC was p2p no?
[11:49 AM] tim dog: you'd need a server to manage connecting users but that's it
[11:50 AM] tim dog: or maybe you wouldn't. "reasonable" to me in that instance would mean you can connect in some means to another user.
[11:50 AM] tim dog: or if im being honest "reasonable" also means just being able to play it locally
[11:51 AM] tim dog: so if you can already do that, then.. it's done imo.
[11:54 AM] yumzda: i don't think there a simple switch that just makes a game that's expected to run on a server also work locally
[11:54 AM] yumzda: which adds alot of dev time
[11:54 AM] Diz: I'm fine with that
[11:54 AM] Diz: They get paid to do it
[11:54 AM] Diz: This is their job
[11:54 AM] Diz: If it gets harder, thats what the money is for
[11:55 AM] Diz: The customer should get a benefit of retaining the use of their paid product IMO
[11:55 AM] yumzda: generally i agree with you, like i'm not a fan of cars trying to charge a monthly fee for seat warmers/etc
[11:56 AM] Diz: Same. Imagine Lexus goes out of business and now you can't drive your car cause the engine refuses to start when it's connection to LexusOnlineAuth fails
[11:56 AM] Diz: Like thats wild
[11:56 AM] Diz: But for gaming, it's fine
[11:56 AM] yumzda: I just think this impacts more small creators than large ones and will be a net blow to indy devs..
[11:57 AM] Diz: maybe
[11:57 AM] Diz: but the net positive is a benefit to consumers who paid for something
[11:57 AM] Diz: so I take that trade imo
[11:57 AM] tim dog: i don't personally think it's a net loss if you plan in advance.
[11:57 AM] yumzda: well considering thor actively stands up for indy devs/etc can you see his position then?
[11:57 AM] tim dog: but what do i know
[11:58 AM] Diz: Sure, I can see his position. I can also see him purposefully misinterpret the position for days
[11:58 AM] Diz: Which is frustrating cause he's arguing in bad faith to make an argument he can win
[11:58 AM] Diz: When in reality, it wasn't the point of the discussion
[11:58 AM] tim dog: i mean he argued that you'd have to rebalance an MMO to be single player, which is the wildest take.  "what the fuck are you talking about" tier.
[11:58 AM] tim dog: so it's just really, really hard to take him seriously
[11:59 AM] yumzda: i'd generally argue that most game developers are probably not the best mouthpieces for themselfs
[11:59 AM] Diz: Inclined to agree
[11:59 AM] Diz: But when you're pirate and take a public stance and vehemently defend it, thats you putting yourself in the mouthpiece position
[11:59 AM] yumzda: i think he's just trying to at least have people consider what the actual ramifications of this policy will be for small indy devs
[11:59 AM] Diz: There's nothing wrong with that
[12:00 PM] Diz: What bothers me, is that he purposefully misinterpretted the argument, and then finally came around to the proper discussion
[12:00 PM] Diz: As if there was any benefit to that outside of him grandstanding
[12:00 PM] yumzda: yeah i mean the wow drama shit is just more the same on this right
[12:00 PM] yumzda: he may not be the best voice for that concern, but it's the one getting the most lime light because
[12:00 PM] Diz: The wow drama was retarded and pirate objectively made the wrong choice
[12:00 PM] yumzda: it's cool to shit on him right
[12:00 PM] tim dog: only in the sense that he will never admit he's wrong
[12:00 PM] Diz: Like I didn't know about any of the drama from that clip when I first saw it
[12:00 PM] Diz: and all I could think was "wow this mage just killed his group"
[12:01 PM] tim dog: not that he's wrong as a whole but that he misinterpreted parts of it and will not go back on those.
[12:01 PM] tim dog: and he came out against it firmly so now he has to keep doing it
[12:01 PM] tim dog: even if it was all baseless
[12:02 PM] yumzda: i think it's a stretch to say it's all baseless when you agree with some sentimenet of his objection
[12:02 PM] tim dog: the parts he hammered on were baseless
[12:02 PM] yumzda: i think converying technical reasons in laymens terms is a very hard thing to do
[12:03 PM] tim dog: and most of his arguments are imaginary situations
[12:03 PM] tim dog: and moving goal posts
[12:03 PM] tim dog: strawman
[12:03 PM] tim dog: it's very, very disingenuous
[12:03 PM] bork: 
[12:03 PM] yumzda: i disagree it's disingenous
[12:03 PM] yumzda: i think he has a soft spot for indy devs
[12:03 PM] yumzda: and it's clearly who he is standing up for here
[12:04 PM] tim dog: i don't think you really want to hear what I think of him
[12:05 PM] Alex #1 friend: https://i.postimg.cc/QCN3F23M/Gu3r-UBOWk-AA3jit.jpg
[12:06 PM] tim dog: because it'll just be me ripping him for being a human clickbait machine and facade and ranting about that won't help
[12:06 PM] stupid dog: im convinced bro paid to be pushed on shorts algorithms
[12:07 PM] tim dog: certainly possible. it seems that's where most viewers picked him up.
[12:07 PM] stupid dog: i saw 2 clips of him before i started blocking all the channels that had his clips, dude is insufferable
[12:08 PM] stupid dog: and went from being an absolute nobody to a top viewed streamer in like 2 weeks? lmao
[12:08 PM] Alex #1 friend: im the same way with asmon. cant tolerate anything he is in or touches
[12:08 PM] tim dog: gives off major motivational speaker con artist vibes to me
[12:10 PM] tim dog: inserts himself into every topic, especially anything tech, talks like he's an expert. that's how the shorts succeeded.
[12:10 PM] stupid dog: <:Hmm:804642320195780619>
[12:11 PM] Alex #1 friend: how much would it cost to get a bump like that
[12:11 PM] Alex #1 friend: asking for a friend
[12:12 PM] Diz: where u get dis
[12:13 PM] stupid dog: socialblade
[12:13 PM] tim dog: [image]
[12:15 PM] tim dog: twitch followers 2015+
[12:15 PM] stupid dog: just peculiar
[12:15 PM] stupid dog: most subs are gifted
[12:16 PM] tim dog: do you know who bruce greene is
[12:17 PM] Diz: Why are so many of his subs gifted?
[12:17 PM] Diz: Is that normal or
[12:17 PM] tim dog: he left a youtube channel for twitch streaming. his entire gimmick was saying "pay it forward" whenever someone was gifted a sub. eventually if you'd ever watched his stream you were gifted a sub to his channel
[12:18 PM] tim dog: his sub numbers were insane but his actual viewer count was awful
[12:18 PM] Alex #1 friend: remember when yumz broke the pay it forward chain at starbucks
[12:18 PM] tim dog: YUMZ
[12:19 PM] tim dog: bruce greene's numbers. years ago it was in 10000, 15000?
[12:19 PM] tim dog: total vs gifted
[12:19 PM] tim dog: nuts
[12:19 PM] stupid dog: 250k youtube subs is only $3900 im betting he bought them
[12:24 PM] tim dog: i dont think his gifted numbers are that unusual? at least for a channel that operates off getting benefits for gift subs from sponsors like he does
[12:25 PM] stupid dog: tim knows all the lore
[12:26 PM] Alex #1 friend: is this phil spencer locking in
[12:26 PM] Alex #1 friend: xbox hitting the glizzy overdrive
[12:26 PM] Diz: ngl I watched him a handful of times and he got on my nerves so I don't know the lore of his community and shit
[12:29 PM] tim dog: I couldn't be a hate watcher even if I wanted to
[12:29 PM] tim dog: Voice and cadence are too much
[12:29 PM] tim dog: Not to mention the smug
[12:30 PM] tim dog: It's like 30 seconds and im looking for a gun
[12:30 PM] tim dog: Or a noose
[12:31 PM] tim dog: Plus all the furry stuff
[12:32 PM] tim dog: Do you really want a guy who rps fucking animals taking care of ferrets
[12:36 PM] tim dog: Does him being a furry disqualify his opinion on skg
[12:36 PM] tim dog: No but it should give you paws
[12:36 PM] tim dog: Sorry, pause
[12:46 PM] Fertilization President: pirate is Tim's personal 9/11
[12:54 PM] Diz: The ferret thing isn't even the worst thing about him and thats insane to say
[12:58 PM] Alex #1 friend: https://images4.imagebam.com/af/66/6c/ME13BGC1_o.jpg
[01:15 PM] tim dog: At this rate it's going to hit the requirement by tomorrow
[01:15 PM] tim dog: Err July 4

[01:25 PM] yumzda: are you 2 excited
[01:25 PM] yumzda: do you have kisses planned?
[01:41 PM] Diz: posted an internship position this morning, its not even 4pm and this is what we have
[01:41 PM] Diz: [image]
[01:41 PM] Diz: <:despairge:987227994311491664>
[01:41 PM] yumzda: what the hell is a rated applicant
[01:41 PM] Diz: Literally 90% of these are AI slop from some dipshit student that doesn't know his ass from his elbow
[01:41 PM] Diz: Fucking christ
[01:41 PM] Diz: rated is someone I rated 1-5 stars
[01:42 PM] Diz: I just use it as a separate list for people I actually want to have HR phone screen before I schedule a proper interview
[01:42 PM] Diz: and archived is the "denial" bucket, but they haven't been emailed denials yet
[01:42 PM] Diz: I reviewed 25 and I think my brain has turned to rot from reading chatgpt outputs
[01:44 PM] yumzda: damn what kind of internship is it lmao
[01:45 PM] tim dog: When's the last time you talked to gr
[01:45 PM] tim dog: Me too
[01:45 PM] tim dog: <:sadge:734498884314988714>
[01:46 PM] Alex #1 friend: about 3 hours ago
[01:46 PM] yumzda: 6/20
[01:46 PM] Diz: engineering
[01:46 PM] yumzda: software?
[01:46 PM] Diz: shit is literally just filled with buzzwords and make no sense
[01:46 PM] tim dog: 6/21 at 6am so same basically
[01:47 PM] Diz: yeah
[01:47 PM] yumzda: full stack or just or what
[01:47 PM] Diz: fullstack
[01:47 PM] Diz: with a preference for ANY sort of exposure to AI frameworks/tech/etc
[01:47 PM] yumzda: <:zubatGEGZ:532045542264406026>
[01:47 PM] Diz: literally any at all
[01:47 PM] tim dog: Damn you guys email denials
[01:48 PM] tim dog: That's nice
[01:48 PM] tim dog: Most don't
[01:48 PM] Diz: I like to pretend that at the very least half of these aren't fake/bots
[01:48 PM] Diz: so I treat them as humans
[01:48 PM] Diz: and send a denial sooner than later instead of making them wait for weeks
[01:48 PM] Diz: do unto others etc
[01:49 PM] tim dog: Have a gpt bucket and email those ones a shitter ai denial
[01:49 PM] Diz: <:kekl:1028788398422503434>
[01:49 PM] Diz: I really should lmao
[01:49 PM] Diz: I almost smile when I find spelling errors/shit like that cause it means it was a real human
[01:49 PM] Diz: unfortunately, it also means they're retarded and don't know how to build a resume
[01:49 PM] Diz: <:Sadge:779089630716493876>
[01:50 PM] Fertilization President: Been a minute. Left him some voicemail since I was in Austin.
[01:53 PM] tim dog: https://i.redd.it/o7sm447d042b1.jpg
[01:54 PM] yumzda: most of my senior devs hate ai, i've heard them say it's like having a team of 4 jr devs working for them
[01:54 PM] yumzda: I try to adapt it more than them I think, but it's hard sometimes
[01:54 PM] tim dog: An assistant that's pretty good at googling stuff for you
[01:55 PM] yumzda: i do think the halucinations it can come up with are wild
[01:55 PM] yumzda: most of the time i ask it to give me a plan of actions rather than actually do any coding
[01:55 PM] yumzda: or like hay bitch add some debugging code for this fucking issue
[01:56 PM] yumzda: love spending tokens on thanking em too
[01:56 PM] Alex #1 friend: if im spending tokens on anything its open or or cheeks
[01:56 PM] Alex #1 friend: open hole*
[01:56 PM] Alex #1 friend: thank you for the rose
[01:56 PM] yumzda: OPEN HOLE
[01:56 PM] yumzda: what is alex on
[01:57 PM] tim dog: Alex is the ass crack bandit?
[01:59 PM] Alex #1 friend: im starting a petition for camgirl preservation
[01:59 PM] Alex #1 friend: every second needs to be archived, searchable and free
[02:00 PM] Alex #1 friend: time codes for everything
[02:00 PM] yumzda: i'm gona say it
[02:00 PM] yumzda: the thumbnail should be in the video
[02:02 PM] Fertilization President: [image]
[02:03 PM] Alex #1 friend: [image]
[02:03 PM] Alex #1 friend: Someone tell fantasy sports guy Xbox has only ever had 1 owner
[02:04 PM] Diz: The problem is people think it's a magical all knowing perfectly correct fuckin skynet
[02:04 PM] Diz: When in reality it's just a really good jr eng that you can curse at
[02:04 PM] Diz: And if you use it as a force multiplier instead of an entire human replacer, it's pretty solid
[02:04 PM] Diz: But you still need critical thinking skills and most people are just dumb so
[02:05 PM] Diz: yknow
[02:05 PM] yumzda: yeah crafting good prompts takes some time and even then it's worth not trusting the input and validating results I think
[02:05 PM] Diz: 100%
[02:06 PM] Diz: We built something internally that incorporates internal knowledge docs and client data from our warehouse into the prompt stream within the locally hosted model loop, and then pipe it out to chatGPT and get it back
[02:06 PM] Diz: And it works pretty well, but even then, thing still just lies
[02:06 PM] Diz: so you have to continually validate and trim the edge cases where it does that
[02:07 PM] yumzda: we have something like that as well that's included with every request to cursor
[02:07 PM] yumzda: more security related i think though
[02:07 PM] Diz: Yeah ours is still very much in the building stage we haven't officialy deployed it any prod
[02:07 PM] Diz: But it's really nice to have and it's definitely like
[02:07 PM] Diz: made me more efficient, i have more free time in my day
[02:08 PM] Diz: but it still be lying
[02:08 PM] yumzda: i really miss being able to see how much money i'm spending in tokens a month 😦
[02:08 PM] Diz: oh god
[02:08 PM] Diz: we are lighting money on fire in token costs rn
[02:08 PM] yumzda: honestly it was alot less than I thought
[02:08 PM] yumzda: but i guess leaders decided to hide that info in the admin section in cursors site lmao
[02:09 PM] yumzda: ay bitch i used 300 premium requests last month heeeeh
[02:09 PM] Diz: how much was it? we're spending like 9-10k a month right now in tokens just doing dev shit, we estimated once deployed to client prod environments it'll be ~50k
[02:09 PM] yumzda: lmao not even close to that i was spending personally on my own shit like 50 - 100 bucks
[02:09 PM] Diz: oh lmfao
[02:09 PM] Diz: Yeah we are sending it LARGE amounts of shit to try and validate
[02:09 PM] yumzda: we are building a feature soon that will let our users do requests though
[02:09 PM] yumzda: which is when we will start getting pounded
[02:09 PM] Diz: ya that sounds about right
[02:10 PM] Diz: we're trying to figure out the best way to protect ourselves from costs running wild on client deployments
[02:10 PM] Diz: thankfully that part is not my job but
[02:10 PM] Diz: still
[02:10 PM] yumzda: it's weird because like i think claude is much better at like... programming help.. but gpt is better at language
[02:10 PM] Diz: yeah so we've tried a few different solutions
[02:10 PM] Diz: chatgpt always ends up working the best even if it's ability to code is dogshit
[02:11 PM] Diz: for pure coding outputs I agree, claude is very solid
[02:11 PM] Diz: it just flounders in all other applications of the tool
[02:11 PM] Diz: which is why we end up moving to the current architecture of a local model we've trained + the "rag" setup on the side
[02:12 PM] Alex #1 friend: ⚠️ EMERGENCY ⚠️

[03:12 PM] tim dog: i for the longest time didn't really like cheddar
[03:12 PM] tim dog: like it was fine
[03:12 PM] tim dog: but i think it's because my brain always associated kraft singles w/ cheddar
[03:12 PM] Diz: d4 layoffs

[03:26 PM] tim dog: but just store brand
[03:47 PM] tim dog: you know i care about stop killing games if i'm willing to watch a 25 minute video from louis rossmann
[03:47 PM] tim dog: <a:yap:1215141141784174652>
[04:05 PM] tim dog: oh he's kind of being an asshole
[04:18 PM] yumzda: always has been
[04:19 PM] tim dog: he doesnt even really talk about the initiative
[04:19 PM] yumzda: but gd he wants that right to repair
[04:19 PM] yumzda: he hates apple i love him
[04:19 PM] tim dog: it's like a 20 minute rant calling out ross for saying he's done after july
[04:19 PM] yumzda: ross?
[04:19 PM] tim dog: ross scott, the guy behind skg
[04:20 PM] yumzda: whats the tea tim
[04:20 PM] yumzda: i know your locked in
[04:20 PM] tim dog: ross scott said he's done after july whether it got the signatures or not. he's handing it off to more competent people at that point.
[04:21 PM] tim dog: which louis rossman seems to have ignored. rossman says he doesnt give a shit if ross scott can't pay his rent.
[04:22 PM] tim dog: there's not really much more to go into. it's 20 minutes of talking in circles like every one of his videos.
[04:22 PM] yumzda: bet he snapped on that one
[04:23 PM] tim dog: and yes he talked about right to repair
[04:24 PM] rob: That is probably the best description of him I've seen
[04:24 PM] rob: I find him
1: very smart about fixing electronics

[04:24 PM] tim dog: <a:Sisi:1167309074770178149>

[04:25 PM] tim dog: i'm calling him dumb!
[04:25 PM] tim dog: iceburn
[04:25 PM] bork: [image]
[04:29 PM] tim dog: my understanding is that they have volunteers who have been doing most of the work in the background and he's more of a figurehead
[04:30 PM] tim dog: and i do agree to an extent that he'll probably be relied upon to talk it up more afterward, and i think it's naive to suggest he can fully check out after
[04:31 PM] tim dog: but i doubt he truly checks out fully

[07:24 PM] Alex #1 friend: My gacha luck is worse I went to hard pity pulling joker and lost my 50/50 to the worst standard character in the game
[07:26 PM] tim dog: You didn’t just lose the 50/50—you got front‑row seats to Joker’s banner roast. Meanwhile, you pulled Morgana and he’s like, “I’m not the feature, I’m the blooper reel.”
[07:26 PM] tim dog: ignore the ai dash
[07:28 PM] Alex #1 friend: i WISH i got morgana. I need a second sustain on my account. I lost my 50/50 to Riddle
[07:31 PM] Alex #1 friend: i'll probably save my guarantee for when the Mirian banner runs. Shes the best healer in the game and the 4 stars on her banner are super good.
