    Do they call them bicycles though? I’m guessing Amazon has chosen to call the DC one a “bicycle” (despite 4 wheels) because of some regulation they’re avoiding with it or (more likely) some kickback they get for using bikes.

    I don’t have a problem with the vehicle itself. Seems pretty neat. But it is not a bicycle.






  • It definitely was.

    Besides just the bugs back in the day, the nature of them was so drastically different between systems. I played at launch on PC, and even then I put ~100 hours into it. The bugs on the PC version were more gameplay/story based and less about performance. I think it was easily the most playable version at launch. Some of them were just funny and I remember giggling when a car would fly into the air or an NPC would t-pose. But I was able to progress and the game didn’t run like dogshit.

    Console versions depended heavily on which console. The PS4 (non-Pro) version probably just should never have existed. Downright unplayable mess.

    But the turnaround really even rivals No Man’s Sky’s turnaround. It helps that the story in Cyberpunk was always pretty solid. I still wish there were more variation between character paths in the early game. That’s really my only remaining gripe.





  • Totally agree.

    The biggest problem with AI isn’t the theft of everyone’s labor. It isn’t even the energy usage.

    It’s the fact that no one, ever, considered the fact that humanity has no plan at all for how to deal with the impact of AI. We are watching it take over literally everything, and losing ourselves in the process. No one even considered the absolute negative impact on humanity purely from the standpoint of mental health and wellbeing.









  • The whole “movement” should have been treated as a risk to public safety from the start. Only the antivaxxers ever thought it was just a “personal choice”, because they’re the ones too stupid to understand the issue in the first place.

    Don’t want to vaccinate your kids? Keep them the hell out of public then, and yourself included. Oh, you think that sounds oppressive? How about putting other people at unnecessary risk because your dumb ass thinks they know more than decades of medical science?

    There is serious danger in the Dunning-Kruger effect which is strongly exacerbated by the existence of the internet. This is one example where it can and has literally lead to the loss of innocent life. It was never worth it to allow some insecure helicopter parents with chips on their shoulders to pretend their parental instincts meant more than the lives of others. We hand down consequences for folks who endanger public health in other areas all the time.
