Quick update! All the voice recordings for the game have now been finished and are in game! The ones that have been re-recorded still need to have their volume levels adjusted, and that is being worked on now.

Testing is going well, and I'll have more information on the next testing phase within the next couple of months, so stay tuned if you're interested in that!

Here's a quick look at a re-recorded voice line from Kenshin!

@lanodan @emarktaylor I would expect Canada to use speed in imperial just so it doesn't confuse drivers coming from the states and vice versa, but apparently not.

@lanodan @emarktaylor I think some countries like Australia still use imperial for cooking for whatever reason.

I've been rejected more in job interviews than I've been rejected asking someone for a date.

I need to get this straight because there are some idiots who unironically believe this shit:

The science-fiction genre was not created by Marxists or socialists. Sure, communists infiltrated sci-fi publishers back in the 1930s and rejected anything that went against their views, but this was to get fans to think that a communist or socialist revolution was the only way to get the sci-fi future they wanted. However, the genre dates back to the 1600s (nearly 200 years before Karl Marx was even born) with stories like The Other World, New Atlantis, and The Blazing World. Even after the commie infiltration of sci-fi publishing houses, science fiction stories that were clearly not Marxist or socialist were still written and published such as Atlas Shrugged.

I only bring this up because I see some idiot RWers who judge the whole genre based on the themes of Star Trek and think that sci-fi is nothing more than promoting Fully Automated Gay Space Communism when that was never the intended purpose.

@Pawlicker Blender's built-in video editor seems like the go to choice for video editing on Linux right now. My brother uses it for video editing and he's a Windows user.

They are pushing so many psyops at once with the aim to make you forget that (s)elections are all theater. Don't fall for it!

UBI experiment failed:

As all the real-world attempts at UBI have failed. As the COVID furlough payments failed. As welfare produces dependency.

This time they ran it as a controlled clinical trial over two years. Turns out it worked similarly to a lottery win: people reverted to their pre-existing quality of life within a year.

Most of the increased monthly income was spent on leisure. After some initial stress reduction and spending on healthcare, physical and mental health outcomes returned to equilibrium within a year.

>i've heard people suggest that physical versions can go back to including cool stuff with them again and it could justify a bit of a higher price.

I think indies already do that, but the average indie game is like $10 and a lot of them don't care if you pirate anyway. Honestly, it sounds like a good incentive to get people to actually buy your game without using DRM or even enforcing your copyright because you can't pirate something physical (unless you try to replicate it with a 3D printer).

In her latest interview, Whitney Webb breaks down why AI is a slippery slope, and why if AI is given enough data & falls into the wrong hands, it can be used as a tool of unprecedented manipulation.

Central Bank Digital Currency: Paper Money isn’t the Solution

Physical paper money solves some of the privacy and security issues inherent in central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). But a lot of people seem to have forgotten that government-issued paper fiat is the parent of a CBDC, and it won’t solve the more fundamental problem – whether physical or digital, fiat currency isn’t real money.

This is what controlled chaos looks like. This year’s election-year referendum on which corporate puppet should occupy the White House has quickly become a lesson in how the Deep State engineers a crisis to keep itself in power.

“ChatGPT’s ability to produce functional code for “easy” coding problems dropped from 89 percent to 52 percent after 2021. And its ability to generate functional code for “hard” problems dropped from 40 percent to 0.66 percent after this time as well.”
“A reasonable hypothesis for why ChatGPT can do better with algorithm problems before 2021 is that these problems are frequently seen in the training dataset,” Tang says.”
