@chr Red Link is red luigi. We don't talk about what they did to purple luigi in Tri Force Heroes.

psa: llm bullshit, zoom auto-enable opt-out
PSA: Zoom is automatically opting in its Pro users into its AI bullshit. Their deadline for opt-out is 8/28/2024*.
Supposedly, this is to remove an extra setting, moving this to being enabled per meeting, and does not result in model training. But if you're like me and don't like even the option of it being enabled, this is worth keeping off at the account level.
They hid the setting in a pop-up notification at the top of their settings page:
https://zoom.us/profile/setting?tab=aicompanion
Infuriatingly, this setting disappears when clicked and didn't initially appear when I navigated to settings on their website, so I'm not able to demonstrate it here. It's so fucking suspicious that I checked if it was a phishing email, but as best as I can tell, it seems to be legitimate. (I'm pulling a few punches here, since a possible explanation is this was the easiest way to implement this feature on their end.)
Anyway: if you're using Zoom, (1) verify their email if you got it, as phishing scams can easily reuse how they did this and (2) go do the thing.

* The top date is 8/29/2024, but they then state 8/28 further down the document. I would recommend trusting the earlier deadline so they don't get the benefit of user confusion there.
this is not quite the game of thrones followup that I was expecting
@CoyoteTraveller Of the set, I found Etrian Odyssey 4 to be my personal favorite. You may also want to add Persona Q and Zenki Zero to this list, though I have less personal exp with them.
the decline of Twitter
@gardevoir Yeah. I do know a lot of folks came off of Twitter and just... stopped posting. Myself included to some degree (at least to public timelines)
Still there, still working on their own projects, but much more active down private channels now.
Which I suppose makes sense: we trusted corps with the public square and they blew it up for clicks and ad revenue. That distrust isn't easily forgotten, even if smaller platforms lack the same incentive.
