Imagine how bad it'll get with generative AI only getting better. Think about someone like Linus Tech Tips getting hacked and an AI video getting uploaded of him telling his users to go sign up for a chance to win some $5000 PC "we're giving 500 away!" and that site which won't even have to look like anything other than "someMadeUpBrand.com/giveaway/linus". It's crazy to even think about how many people would fall for that shit. If the AI is good enough I might fall for it and I'm pretty damn good at catching it (for now).

    Maybe not super slow paced like Squad but super slow paced compared to today's COD.

    Back when you'd hold positions and provide cover fire while someone would slowly push up or flank etc. It was a much different game before MW released.

    I used to play this at gaming cafes in the early/mid 2000s with my buddies before we all had proper gaming computers alongside Battlefield 1942. Definitely not confusing it for Operation Flashpoint haha.

    When this game came out I hated it because I loved the original Call of Duty games that were super slow paced and more realistic. But eventually it became my main game playing till 4am on Xbox with friends. I miss the simplicity of COD MW.

    Fire hazard being messing something up by tinkering with the PSU. It's not worth it over something that can be replaced for so little money. And I think it's just more about swap out the most likely failing component (the PSU) and see if the problem goes away. If it doesn't then you know it wasn't the PSU.

    ChatGPT has been spot on for my DDLs. I was working on a personal project and was feeling really lazy about setting up a postgres schema. I said I wanted a postgres DDL and just described the application in detail and it responded with pretty much what I would have done (maybe better) with perfect relationships between tables and solid naming conventions with very little work for me to do on it. I love it for more boilerplate stuff or sorta like you said just getting me going. Super complicated code usually doesn't work perfectly but I always use it for my DDLs now and similar now.

    The real problem is when people don't realize something is wrong and then get frustrated by the bugs. Though I guess that's a great learning opportunity on its own.

    This coexist sticker/Subaru stereotype is so annoying. Not all of us have that sticker. Some of us have them as plastic emblems replacing the car's name. Sheesh.
