ChickenAndRice@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•The Baldur's Gate 3 cast got a new set of pre-painted minis and—oh, oh no, oh no no noEnglish7·5 days agoJudero lookin’ asses
(Judero is actually an amazing game and a work of art. Go play it, if you like the idea of a game made fully in clay + spare pieces laying around the creator’s house)
ChickenAndRice@sh.itjust.worksto Work Reform@lemmy.world•Software engineer lost his $150K-a-year job to AI—he’s been rejected for 800 jobs and forced to DoorDash and live in a trailer to make ends meet134·6 days agoFrom the software engineer in the article:
“I think there’s this problem where people are stuck in the old world business mindset of, well, if I can do the same work that 10 developers were doing with one developer, let’s just cut the developer team instead of saying, oh, well, we’ve got a 10 developer team, let’s do 1,000x the work that we were doing before,” K says.
Buddy, there is no “old world business mindset”, this is capitalism as usual. Even IF (big IF), an employer can get 1000x the output, you guys will NOT get 1000x the compensation. This is exploitation
Let’s put this to rest: when productivity boosts are touted as a benefit from using AI, it doesn’t mean shit if you work for someone else (i.e. you don’t really own your work)
ChickenAndRice@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•Ori Studio Head Says Review Bombing Might Force Studio Closure, Then Takes It All BackEnglish131·9 days agoOh damn. I was going to get the Ori games but will spend my money elsewhere. Thanks for the heads up.
Pretty much all of Reddit right now
ChickenAndRice@sh.itjust.worksto World News@lemmy.world•Pope Leo ‘Looked the Other Way’ When Victims Raised Sex Abuse Claims Against Priests, Survivor WarnsEnglish91·12 days agoI’m guessing you’ve seen the Reddit threads about him? The commenters display the exact behavior you describe lol.
Somewhat related: It’s funny, I came to Lemmy because of the Reddit API fiasco, but stayed because I prefer the culture here. Sometimes I’ll visit Reddit (during major news stories, or for niche topics) and man, does it feel so off lol
ChickenAndRice@sh.itjust.worksto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Programmers then and now10·14 days agoSome say they are still trapped there, to this day…
ChickenAndRice@sh.itjust.worksto Patient Gamers@sh.itjust.works•Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?4·14 days agoLinda Cubed Again, for the Playstation 1. It’s a Japanese RPG released in 1997, with an English fan translation released last year (after 10 years of work!)
I was surprised by some of the systems implemented in the game: a working bank system, some locations change over time, dynamic weather with effects on the environment (i.e. rainfall can flood lower levels of caves), and more.
There’s a youtube video that goes over the story, but overall I’d say it’s a pretty solid pokemon-like that deserves more attention. I should mention that the game is pretty dark and features a lot of taboos. The github link describes them in a content warning section, in case you want to try it for yourself
ChickenAndRice@sh.itjust.worksto Polygon@sh.itjust.works•The GTA 6 trailer makes Rockstar’s changed politics very clear3·15 days agoDon’t read the comments in the linked article. Biggest mistake of my life
Does anyone have a list of acceptable post-coitus activities? I wouldn’t know, as I’m just a delicious meal you see.
ChickenAndRice@sh.itjust.worksto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Has The Reddit acknowledged the existence of Lemmy?English14·16 days agoI remember suggesting Lemmy to mods of a popular subreddit, during the API Shutdown 2 years ago
They told me they had no idea how to even use it and would rather just use Discord. I check a couple months ago and they still exist on Reddit…
ChickenAndRice@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•What are some good examples of "Where the fuck do you go" kind of games?English3·17 days agoA couple times in Linda Cubed Again. The game’s next objectives are told to you by characters, or through the in-game voicemail system.
However, there is no “current quest” screen so if you take a break from the game, you can easily forget where you left off.
Also, it doesn’t help that the game was only released in Japan (and fan translated only recently) so there’s not a lot of walkthroughs you can follow.

ChickenAndRice@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Spotify 30 minutes of uninterrupted... Just kiddingEnglish3·18 days agoIt’s a GUI tool that gives you the ability to tag songs in bulk. It uses the MusicBrainz database to provide relevant metadata, and also provides user plugins (like the Last.fm plugin I mentioned)
I get my songs in batches (through Bandcamp and youtube-dlp) every couple of months, so GUI is fine for me.
However, I’m seeing a CLI alternative called https://beets.io/ ? Apparently it is a CLI tool that also queries the MusicBrainz database (or Beatport, or Discogs), and apparently integrates well with Lidarr. I never tried it, however.
ChickenAndRice@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Spotify 30 minutes of uninterrupted... Just kiddingEnglish2·18 days agoNot entirely automatic, but I found that Navidrome (at least when you use a third party client like Feishen or Symfonium) has smart playlists. I use that to write some simple queries like:
By genre:
- Ambient
- Downtempo
By listening habits:
- All Favorites
- Rediscover Old Favorites
- Last 100 Songs Played
- Never Listened To
- Top 100 Songs
and so on.
Obviously, the genre smart playlists assume your music has Genres tags. I use Picard (with the Last.fm genre plugin) for that.
Ripping a tag from a pillow that says “Under Penalty of Law: Not to be Removed By Anyone but the Consumer”

ChickenAndRice@sh.itjust.worksto Games@sh.itjust.works•What have been the games whose writing really got into you?English13·18 days agoAt first I was like “haha look at the funny hobo cop, no pants”.
By hour 70 I decided to finally read Chomsky, 11/10 can recommend.
Not me I’m cool 😎
I want to be remembered as the succulent meal that sometimes makes good points and funny jokes 🍗🍚
