GenAI and “prediction markets” ruin everything, part 253: “What just happened to TheNumbers.com should worry us all”
The Stochastic Game
Ramblings of General Geekery
“EA boss awarded $38.6M for layoffs and genAI bullshit”: If I was still an EA employee, I think I would start heckling the town hall meetings until Andrew Wilson stopped showing his face in public, or I was dragged out by the security staff.
I just realized that the excellent mini-series “The Lost Room” and the promising but abandoned “Parallels” TV movie/pilot were both done by the same guy, and now I really need someone to throw money at Christopher Leone to make more cool weird shit.
Yay! I have joined the ELITE club of people who say cool stuff like “where did I leave my darn reading glasses?” or “can you get my reading glasses from the table?” or “my knee hurts!” or “what?! speak up!!”
Excited about this new chapter of my life.
Out-of-context Dragonbane session quotes from tonight: “you can’t have a rebound chicken, you need to mourn first”, and “let’s use chicken as AOE attacks!”
Tonight’s Dragonbane dice-rolling went well! Also, my players plan to fight the Dead Eyes Cave’s monster by chugging chicken at it, only looking at the chicken and casting Thunderbolt on each one, so that the bolt bounces onto the monster 😂 Of course I’m not going to allow that 🤣
Yes of course, it’s obviously a “similar ETA” to take little detours at each intersection, as opposed to driving straight… did Google enable GenAI in Maps?
“I love <XYZ> as a TTRPG system because it’s easy to hack!”
Bruh, almost all systems are easy to hack, except the super-specific modern indie games you probably don’t play.
When I don’t make rhubarb pies, I make peach melbas. It’s very commonly found on dessert menu in French restaurants, but pretty much nowhere to be seen in North America so I have to take this matter into my own hands!
The morning god peeled off the night’s plastic wrap a bit too fast and now the sky’s all messed up.
