  • Makes sense. I wouldn’t think the average person taking on the exceptional training of Olympians would be good for you, but of those with the natural health and talent to try, Olympians are the ones who got that far without injuring themselves, and will therefore likely continue with some safe training with proper technique, and maintaining good health into old age. I’d imagine that benefit outweighs the damage extreme sports and training does to your body.

    I’d assume that measuring generally fit people who exercise regularly and eat well, without pursuing the extremism of world class athleticism, would live even longer on average.





  • They did overhaul the controller mapping in this update, along with just about everything else, so it would be worth checking out. I really can’t emphasize enough how massive this update is, it’s like the emulator leaping from 2010 to 2024, they’ve been exceptionally active over the past 4 years.

    Aren’t there emulators for newer platforms out there now?

    And of course. I assume you’re referring to RPCS3 for PS3. PS4 is also in the early stages of being emulated, with simple games being playable.


  • I don’t necessarily disagree that we may figure out AGI, and even that LLM research may help us get there, but frankly, I don’t think an LLM will actually be any part of an AGI system.

    Because fundamentally it doesn’t understand the words it’s writing. The more I play with and learn about it, the more it feels like a glorified autocomplete/autocorrect. I suspect issues like hallucination and “Waluigis” or “jailbreaks” are fundamental issues for a language model trying to complete a story, compared to an actual intelligence with a purpose.


  • Honestly, would still be nice to have, for how much Xbox controllers are the de facto controller on PC as well.

    Lots of games there between steam input, emulators, etc, where it just feels odd to not have that gyro in what’s otherwise a very premium controller (I’m using the Elite controller). It’s my favourite controller hands down, and yet I consider using my Switch Pro Controller just for gyro in some titles.

    And yeah, better to lay that groundwork now for the next generation than miss out on it entirely.
