We found the record company shill.

I‘m all for sneaking into concerts and everything else since ticketmaster is trying to wring every penny out of customers.

All those leeches can die in a hole.

I was very glad to read the last sentence. I agree fully. Easiest would be a report button that saves the last 60 seconds of voice, analyzes it with ai and check if something illegal/harassing was said and autokicks the person who said it.

Would not require more top down systems.

Apart from what you‘re interpreting into my words, I said if someone is harassing you or speaking about lets say the things they did with their daughter yesterday, you can report them and have a computer look into it instead of a human.

Whatever privileges you have in your discord, you cant kick just anyone in every place. You either need privileges or a moderator to do it normally and my idea was to use AI to analyze the reported stuff.

haui_lemmy, 8 miesięcy temu

generally, yes. But computers can take care of stuff very well at this point. Kicking someone for using the N-Word does not need meaning. Just dont use it, even if it is for educational purposes (inside a game-chat for example).

and recordings of voice chat have privacy implications.

I dont think we live in the same reality. over 30% in the US use Voice assistants that constantly listen in to their conversatoins (was just the first number I could find, I’m not from the US). Having a bot in a game VC chat store 1 minute of text for 1 minute for reporting purposes is like 0.00001% of what is going wrong with security stuff. Billions of people are getting analyzed, manipulated and whatnot on a daily basis. A reporting tool is not even the same game, let alone in the same ballpark in terms of privacy implications.

I’m just gonna repeat myself since this is the most common answer I get in those topics:

The vast majority of people is being listened in on, analyzed and manipulated on a daily basis by far, far worse actors. Storing 1 minute of VC for 1 minute only accessible to this hypothetical bot *if someone reports them - facing wrongful report consequences themselves is not comparable to real privacy threats.

You‘re again interpreting something into my words that I didnt say. Maybe try not to play the victim in every comment. It’s abrasive.

It’s not happening to some degree. Its happening left right and center. Denying that a computer would help with vc moderation does not help at all.

Good day.

Good thought. Thanks for bringing it up.

The one that was so successful that it got its own game.

Who wants to bet the damage caused and profit gained by this action was a lot higher than this?

haui_lemmy, 9 miesięcy temu

Yes, absolutely. Still, fines for fortune 500 companies should always be damage+profit gained from the action times two.

Sound idea. Additionally, it’s now possible to stream games to the tv quite easily. So pc is really the better alternative to get away from psychological abuse through console and game manufacturers.

Also, Minecraft on console is no better than roblox imo. It is a microtransaction pile of sh*t. You could argue that minecraft java works but I get the strong feeling that it wont stay like this forever since bedrock makes more money and allows for stronger manipulation through nonexistent mod support and everything is monetized there.

haui_lemmy, 9 miesięcy temu

No but pc is now available on tv. The more people use it, the faster these monetization machines called this decades consoles can wither and die.

Factorio is a great idea if you’re ok with school going to sh*t. I called factorio the „time machine“ since it could zap 12 hrs in one second. Cant remember any other game that I played till dawn in the last 20 yrs.

Two things I see differently:

• the hardware of a pc is standardized as well and the performance of a console is not better afaik
• there is something called unattended upgrades for linux which takes that away as well. You also don’t ever need the newest version of linux

Exactly.

Ptw means you pay for advancement ingame. It has been against the eula to sell items that you cant get ingame through playing.

haui_lemmy, 11 miesięcy temu

Yes. For example „efficiency 6 pickaxe“ (you can create whatever stats you want as a server owner) is only available for paid tier members. Done, eula broken and mojang can shut you down immediately (and have done so in the past).

Good news: steamlink can stream your pc games to your tv and you can play with a ds4 or xbox controller. It’s the more environmentally friendly way anyway and it works well.

haui_lemmy, 11 miesięcy temu

I‘m very happy with the steam tv link app. It works great and you have a lot more games to choose from afaik.

Your ethics are on point.
