This is also how I felt. It looks like a cool GTA game, but so far aside from better animations (except for that backflip into the water lol), and some better graphics, I’m not sure how much is actually new. Apparently the world is twice as large as the last game though so it’ll be at least interesting to explore.

Gaming@beehaw.org•are price hikes of computers/consoles really due to ai?
5·23 days agoIts true, but we’ve seen some of the demand is artificial.
Different chip manufacturers are allegedly withholding stock of various parts and saying they dont have enough. Samsung and a bunch of other companies got caught in the early 2000’s as part of a DRAM cartel and had to pay fines. There are rumors that this is happening again but im not sure if anything substantial has come to light yet

1·1 month agoI wonder if it’ll have the same death wobble that their other trucks had lol.
Side note I’m biased as hell because all these american truck brands keep making their trucks bigger when they dont need to be. It makes the road a more dangerous place than it already is

Technology@beehaw.org•Suspecting AI cheating, Ivy League prof ordered an in-person final; scores fell 50%
29·2 months agoThis is why I’m nervous about going back to school too. I’ve seen people find out their professors are just using AI and it feels so…gross. You pay a lot for school! What’s the point if it’s all just phoned in? And then to top it off you aren’t guaranteed a good job afterwards even if you do well.
I wish there was a better solution to all of this because I would like to change my life trajectory as I’ve grown tired in my current position

Technology@beehaw.org•How to know if that job will crush your soul
21·3 months agoDoes your actual compensation take care of what you need for all of your current goals and needs — from day one?
I’ve never had this. Where does one find a job like that today lol. I want to say the majority of people actively do not have this unless they are in a situation where they have been able to live more frugally. Inflation and greedflation have made any pay increases I’ve received in the past decade basically non existent.
That being said I’m basically supporting a family of 4 on a salary of 1.5 people.

I started my job just a few years prior to this AI boom. With a shitty company and now AI on top, I’m really trying to think of other jobs I would be okay at/with doing.

Gaming@beehaw.org•PlayStation has seemingly added a 30-day DRM check to all newly purchased digital PS4 and PS5 games
3·4 months agoAhh good point. That’s frustrating and something I always forget. The numerous updates and adjustments required for games is annoying. There’s certainly something to be said about the days when games were thoroughly play tested and then released in a mostly solid state
