    Procedural generation of environments existed long before the current LLMs - see No Man's Sky. (Also Starfield, as that was developed before the latest AI craze)

    Anime

    The new Wataru anime looks very Minecraft: The original for comparison(which had character design by Toriyama of DB fame): Also waiting for this: I've read most of the manga it actually is pretty fun - it was definitely made by someone who understands toku cliches and how to use them

    Thunderbolts*

    I'm guessing this is based on some modern version of Thunderbolts? Because it seems to have very little in common with the original version of them from what I can tell - the originals were public from the start under their new identities(), while this looks to be doing the exact opposite of...

    Not sure if this qualifies but that's a heck of a jump... not to mention their subscription options looks like a Microsoft Windows version list: And gotta love how even when paying for the no ads option the fine print says there may still be ads(setting aside the whole "we're paying and still...

    The "What made you happy today" thread!

    Mercy was not dispensed at work today, only Straxus. Also the khajit dancer statue I'd been waiting for months for to finish a gaming hall I was making in ESO finally was available today, so I was able to swap that in and finally open it up(and got a fancier glowing fountain for it as a bonus)

    US officials briefed on it have basically confirmed the explosive additions by Israel, who were tipped off that this was a Hezbollah order - and as to the timing, they've apparently been lobbing low accuracy rockets for weeks into northern Israel, some as recently as Sunday and Monday. Sounds...

    Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

    Nothing to do with batteries - batteries, even overheating, don't blow like that and IIRC it was just a pair of AAs. Leading suggestion is that they were intercepted mid-shipment and had an explosive planted inside them. Sometimes, the old plays work the best, and the Mossad don't play around.
