Honestly, I view ROS as the “Fuck it” movie. All the direction of where the story should go was pretty much dead after TLJ.

I want to see my man Nom Anor messing things up for both the Rebels and Empire. Maybe make the Peace Brigade while he’s at it.

Star by Star, Traitor, and Destiny’s Way are pretty good. I want some Alpha Red.

Unpopular Opinion: The Yuuzhan Vong Invasion would’ve been better than the Sequel Trilogy.

Seeing that business with Ithor on the big screen would’ve been great.

The halting problem makes that somewhat impossible to make. Detectors have a notable weakness with detecting themselves.

You’re assuming that the detector can be trusted. The detector could be someone who is being paid to mislead you on purpose.

If AI presence really matters to you, you need to trust your own two eyes for this sort of thing. Offloading that work to someone else is a considerable risk.

And to be honest, detecting AI is pretty fast once you’re able to spot it. I can spot the typical variants of AI art in just a few seconds.

You need to train your ability to spot AI.

AI art has a very distinctive style. Weird shadows, impossible architecture, and having a blatantly incorrect number of fingers are dead giveaways.

AI text tends to talk at you rather than with you. It has difficulty remembering context, so it tends to forget what you said 10 lines ago.

On the other hand, it is impossible to be banned from all of Lemmy. Power tripping admins do not exist here.

Get off chromium and maybe I’ll consider you.

My problem with LLMs is that they’re expert pattern matchers and little else.

Ask them the integral from 1-5 of ln(x) and they’re sure to screw it up.

They’ll give you something that sounds like the right answer, but their explanations are nonsense.

For Reddit, the LibRedirect settings I use are:

Frontend: Redlib

Instance: https://redlib.catsarch.com/

LibRedirect is great if you’re using Reddit read-only. I’d say it’s even cleaner than old.reddit.

And it steals hours from your life.

If I need to go there, I use the LibRedirect extension. Read-only reddit is good enough for my needs.

Good lord I hope Nightdive stays intact long enough to make a Dark Forces 2 Remaster. Jerec needs to show the new kids how an Inquisitor does things.

System Shock seems to be working on clawing its way back from the dead.

On the other hand, you don’t need to worry about power in Shapez 2. The constant power crunch in Satisfactory is what made me drop it.

Sounds like you want a factory/automation game.

I propose Satisfactory, Foundry, Desynced, or Shapez 2.

None of them involve anime, through I think the robots in Foundry and Desynced look cute. All of them involve building things, and automating the building of things.

Visual novels fit this rather closely. They’re a mixture of book and game, so any fluff you encounter tends to be skippable.

Other than that, I propose The Pegasus Expedition. I found it to be fairly fast-paced.

You don’t have many opportunities to grind in Reverse Collapse. The game is hard, though it mainly depends on your ability to strategize than raw numbers. For example, there’s one boss early on who’s completely unbeatable unless you can exploit her AI into running on some plants.

A good portion of Reddit’s demographic likes to visit SubredditSimulator. Those guys aren’t exactly good conversationalists, though.

Someone born within the years 1992-1995. You can spot 'em easy.
