I’m not sure why but I’m able to disable them on mobile. The tricky part is guessing what the original track is. I’m on YT premium which might be why?

I think the ideal functionality would be having (ORIGINAL) next to the audio track that isn’t dubbed and have that set to the default setting.

I think if they can get the dubbing correct and actually working as intended, that would be incredible for opening up cultures for everyone. I think crossing language barriers is really cool.

It really feels like the tone has drastically shifted with how they operate. I miss Reggie and Iwata

Sorry I don’t have a way to help. I noticed this changed recently as well and was really frustrated by it.

Believe it or not, a decade ago, EA support was actually good. I know it sounds insane but I had the BEST customer service call with someone from the Midwest US. I was trying to get into the time trials in the game Mirrors Edge. For some reason, I was getting a weird connection error.

I spoke to this customer service rep who walked me through some bizarre steps, which seemed effectively like clearing the cache of my xbox. All the while, we just shot the shit and discussed games. It was just a casual call, she was genuinely helpful and SO efficient.

At the end of it I didn’t wana hang up the phone LOL. It was the best customer service call I’ve ever had and it kills me knowing that they axed these people at some point. It was a call that I think is rare to experience nowadays with service reps being overworked and monitored to hell and back.

The owner of the company I work for was celebrating this last night. Gross

I was going to say “but someone could post a picture with the date and their username” and then realized that can be spoofed. And then I thought what about some kind of video? Wait that could probably be spoofed too.

Maybe you could have it so only real people could get in via word of mouth? But eventually I’m sure someone with bad intentions could enter

I’ve been streaming recently, and one thing that stands out to me is when you first boot up a game and it doesn’t have a start menu with settings.

I noticed it before, but now I really notice it. If something is wrong with the settings, sometimes that intro is unplayable or a less than optimal experience. So you have to try and skip, fix the issue, and then restart the game and try again. This seems to be more of a PC issue than a console issue, but even on consoles sometimes you need to adjust things like brightness or add subtitles

Oooh, grounded felt like they didn’t play test for solo players. The end game suddenly got very grindy, and I decided not to finish because of it. Loved the game otherwise. I’m hoping they will try to balance it more for the second game

Playing the metal gear collection and this immediately stood out. The cutscenes are long

So I had never tried duckduckgo until just now and it seems they recently added ai summaries, too, lol. Dang it. I’ll try start page in a sec

Edit: start page seems good. They do have blurbs but they’re from Wikipedia and don’t seem to be ai related

I needed to upgrade my pc. If I knew i had reliable security updates going forward, I would keep using Windows 10. Remember when Windows 10 was supposed to be the last windows? Hah

This was also my complaint. I felt like it was missing the cooperative aspect of an MMO that I wanted. I think FFXI is closer to what I want, but it’s understandably older and less accessible for a lot of people. I’m still debating when/if i wana take the plunge and just play that for a while.

I’ve spent about 60 hours replaying the intro quests in XIV trying to get into it lol

I was wondering about this. AI info on every search seems ridiculous

That was the ONE trailer from this Xbox announcement that I was actually looking forward to. It looked in a fairly playable state, too. I feel like a very broken record, but this is yet another reason why it feels like Microsoft is pulling out of gaming.

It’s funny because companies are using AI for job listing’s and are simultaneously getting swamped by hundreds or thousands of applications due to AI as well. AI is completely messing up the job application process. Not like the process was any better prior to AI but now it’s an even bigger mess

If I had to take a wild guess, it’s higher-ups sacking employees to get a quick payday.

Microsoft keeps buying up dev teams, promising games, and then prevents games from releasing. I have been questioning their desire to make future consoles, to be honest. It seems like they’re trying to focus on gamepass and maneuvering out of the console market. Especially with their new handheld being made by a different company.

The biggest issue that I read was that these phones weren’t getting security updates fast enough.

If they could figure that portion out and sell them to more countries, I would love to have a phone like this.

I feel like Microsoft has been extremely dodgy when it comes to the future of the Xbox. I bet they’ll just hire more people to fill the gap. It always seems to be “look we’re trimming the fat!” And then “look we’re expanding”. Anything to boost the stock

They need to be in uniform then. If they don’t want ICE to be assaulted, then they need to have their faces shown, be in uniform, and conduct themselves in an orderly fashion.

If somebody rolls up in unmarked cars with facemasks on, I would assume they’re abducting someone.

I’m soon going to be forced to use an internal ai tool at my job. I’m not looking forward to it. These LLM’s can be helpful in some use cases but it feels like they’re some kind of buzzword magic element to make people think there’s extra value

It’s like when everything was “artisanal” for a while, and stores were attempting to charge more money because they put the word in the title of an item. It feels like I’m taking crazy pills watching everyone attempt to grift.
