You kept in five minutes of bumbling around searching for an answer and then cut the answer out of your walkthrough. jesus fucking christ.

lmao tried to find a walkthrough for the shit horror game i'm playing. The only guy who posted a youtube video titled "FULL GAME WALKTHROUGH" got stuck in the same place i was and then hard cut to after the code to the lockbox i need to access was found and entered.

10/10 "walkthrough," clownass.

it's super annoying. I started up a camping horror game, we were having fun, then we got to some "park map" signboard and every map label was just mishmashed garbage letters. it wasn't even "idk is this AI? not sure." just straight up "yeah, they lied about not using AI art."

overslept today! running late, sorry; stream underway in the next few minutes! just wrapped up on food. getting set up for stream itself

see you for jank in just a couple

Gildersneeze @gildersneeze.bsky.social · 6h

having to dodge games that have AI disclosures has easily QUADRUPLED the amount of work i have to do for streams of fresh hot jank games, and even then we've played at least three games this season that clearly had AI art assets with no disclosure

it's infuriating to say the least. fuck AI

Missed a couple streams lately because of some bullcrap, so it's starting early today. See you in 30-ish! I'll be keeping an eye on a (hopeful) delivery today, but let's get on some spooky jank in a few minutes!

i think my record when scrolling shorts while unable to sleep is now eight in a row, all extremely common "lifehack" shit or dumb fucking trivia that a vast majority of people absolutely know

Gildersneeze @gildersneeze.bsky.social · 1d

can someone invent a way to slap people through the internet so i can give one to every motherfucker who starts a short form video with "did YOU know"

if there's any trend i'm beyond sick of it's that. i wanna find the assclown who made that trend popular and throttle them

"Secret Recipe Soda" is a family name; you don't need to include such formalities

Gildersneeze @gildersneeze.bsky.social · 1d

pfft, imagine choosing any of those names. skill issue.

just call me

Can of "DR. SMOOTH Secret Recipe Soda" from President's Choice, circa 1994

side note: i was not interested in what the AI search had to say; i just wanted a wiki link or some shit but jesus christ it had to blast out its absolute incorrect bullshit right there so i'm putting its dumb shit on blast

fuck ai, fuck ai bros

lmao my second favorite thing about how useless AI is is how its enthusiasts do stupid shit like "automatically follow people who even mention AI in a bluesky post," even if that post is saying that AI fucking sucks shit and is mostly entirely worthless.

2

Gildersneeze @gildersneeze.bsky.social · 1d

my favorite thing about AI being everywhere is how absolutely fucking useless it is. Just doing a google search to figure out where the Vision Ability is in BL4 and it says there is no vision ability. IT'S RIGHT THERE IN THE FUCKING GAME.

google search for "vision ability borderlands 4" with an AI overview responding that "There is no specific "vision ability" in Borderlands 4 named as such"

Screencapture from Borderlands 4 that says "Timid Kyle's Neglected Opening (abandoned auger mine). [locked] Complete activity to access vending machines.

Locate the abandoned Auger mines with the Vision ability"

yes, literally in-game there is an ability called Vision. Fuck AI

Lmao somehow the GPU that was out for delivery yesterday in chapel Hill, failed, and was supposed to be reattempted today, was just accepted at a usps facility in Raleigh an hour ago for sending to final destination. What the fuck is going on

Gildersneeze @gildersneeze.bsky.social · 2d

Fucking USPS better get their shit together and deliver this video card today. I swear to christ if they lie about some mythical driveway obstruction again I'm going to raise hell.

i wouldn't be pissed about it if it wasn't such a bullshit lie about the place being inaccessible. I've been here all day and literally nothing is blocking a driveway or a door. Just say "hey we're running behind; it'll get there tomorrow."

Gildersneeze @gildersneeze.bsky.social · 3d

how exciting i guess i get to miss streaming tomorrow, too. i love that for me at a time when working is literally the most important fucking thing i could be doing right now.

Gildersneeze @gildersneeze.bsky.social · 3d

LMAO apparently amazon passed it off to USPS for the final delivery on a federal holiday and USPS claimed they tried to deliver it but "the driveway or doorway was blocked" which is fuckin' news to all of us that use this driveway (three houses with completely un-blocked doors)

Gildersneeze @gildersneeze.bsky.social · 3d

man, the new video card for the stream rig is taking forever to arrive today. i should have just streamed instead of assuming it'd arrive in good time

I'm now live with my somewhat ill-advised FMV marathon. I'm starting with Johnny Rock and playing all the DVDs pictured below from left to right. Should take like 8 hours or so, which means I'll be here all day.

The games I'm going to play today on steam. Left to right: Who Shot Johnny Rock?, Crime Patrol, Dragon's Lair III, Time Traveler, Drug Wars, Dragon's Lair, Dragon's Lair II, Space Ace, Space Pirates, Thayer's Quest, Shadoan, Mad Dog McCree, Mad Dog II, and The Last Bounty Hunter.

yeah, it's been twitch policy for years now. hell, i think i remember this being a thing when i still lived in PA, and that was a bit over ten years ago.

Gildersneeze @gildersneeze.bsky.social · 3d

Why would i get mad that i'm not being counted? i'm not actively watching a stream; i'm checking in on occasion.

Should I get mad that i'm not counted as in attendance at a NY Giants game when i'm sitting on my ass in NC watching a youtube vid about birds while the Giants play at home?

crazy work.
