    California bill (AB 412) would effectively ban open-source generative AI

    I didn't, wasn't on my mind. What is glaring is their sense of entitlement about adding to the general misery of the world, without repercussion. If the shoe fits, wear it, I guess. Expecting people to work for free is wrong, they don't. Art is a noble endeavor to be defended, it is the soul of...

    California bill (AB 412) would effectively ban open-source generative AI

    All workers are garbage, right, that's your opinion? We should grovel before the tech lords.

    California bill (AB 412) would effectively ban open-source generative AI

    Lincoln wrote in the justification for the Emancipation Declaration that people had the right to eat of the fruit of their own labor. Stealing their IP takes this away from them. The companies that scraped people's IP, art, writing, knew they were stealing, and justified it that there was no...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Indeed it is a chore, which is why I noped out, though I had used indesign before too. Affinity is way easier than scribus, and is often on sale, no sub either.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I have messed around with scribus, and have a friend who uses LaTeX. I use affinity now because it is less expensive, though in the past I have had adobe. I have used word, and officelibre too. If you are going to publish with dtrpg their two supported ones are adobe and affinity, for which they...

    Worlds of Design: What Should Be in an RPG Book?

    Yes, I noticed that also. If one wants to a 'how to design' look at the successful books and try to emulate that layout.

    What Are Your Non-Gaming Hobbies/Interests?

    Younger: music, racing (drag, road course), off roading, horses, guns, camping, hiking, and writing fiction, non-fiction. Now more about occasional camping: up north in the Michigan Upper Peninsula, or out west on Bureau of Land Management land; hiking, a little off roading (just overheated the...

    Worlds of Design: What Should Be in an RPG Book?

    Be true to yourself and you will never fall. Ultimately make the game that you want to play, that is the most authentic. However, honestly, how many games are just marketing? I see so many come and go. For years I had posted my growing game as "Sidereal Traveller" as fan content, and then after...

    What Does the RPG Hobby Need Now?

    Beer, brick oven pizza, and not having to clean up. Noise was blah, though the other features outweighed that.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    My ex was a barista at the Larchmont Peets in LA, they are much more industrial grade coffee though. Coffee that'll show up on a drug screen.

    Mass Layoffs At Polygon, Major Gaming News Outlet

    I like here more, because with some reviews, people review a game without even reading it? I mean, what? How does that work?

    What Does the RPG Hobby Need Now?

    R/rpg is also a black hole of info; things get posted and drowned out. I encourage people to contact me directly, just the other day I ran someone through chargen over the phone.
