One of my favorite local ice cream shops uses Comic Sans (white on navy blue) on all their signage and this is one of the main reasons I frequent it. If they were to switch to some AI slop I wouldn't step my feet in there again.

Small businesses torching years and years of propaganda and goodwill lavished on them, so they can save the $50 it would cost to have a human design a decent-looking poster.

The nice thing about the Switch 2 is you can find a plethora of games at your local library (if you have one, that is). That's essentially how my wife played 20+ games with her Switch 1.

Right. And "written" isn't the best way to describe these, rather they are "published" after so-and-so.

I’m currently on iOS 16 with iPhone 12 mini. I don’t even see an option to update to anything but iOS26, so I’m staying put.

My worst fear is buying a 13mini that is already updated to IOS26, then I think I would be screwed.

Yeah, I was like your friend, fumbling through the game and texting him to receive some hints on how to proceed further, as I lost patience with the repetitive nature of the game. Still fun though.

>I keep wondering if there's a way to have that baked into the game.

Demon Souls' system of leaving little messages behind for other players is sort of similar.

The community of AI "musicians" should absolutely have a place to share their "music". Just identify it as such so everyone else can avoid it. :)

>You can't take one tragic mistake or bad-apple cop and draw conclusions

When have Trump's administration ever suggested it was either? So far they have said:

-it was an act of self-defense by Ross

-Ms. Good ran over Ross

-Ross has immunity even if he committed murder

-Ms. Good was very disrespectful to law enforcement

Perhaps they are less forthcoming about taking it. I wasn't aware my father was on it until I saw his medicine cabinet.
