Most people aren't yet spending a toxic amount of time with LLMs. When I talk to people who've spent even a moderate amount of time at it, they're clearly affected, no longer themselves. Like any epidemic, it starts with a few people with some unusual exposure. And we know how well people protected themselves from the last epidemic.
He wasn't a fuckwit, he wasn't undisciplined, he wasn't badly parented. This is what happens when a normal Human is exposed to too much chatbot. This can and will happen to you, your "mental defenses" are not sufficient.
If we don't destroy it first, it will destroy us.

How much "video game"? My first was a guess the number game with knights jousting, you got left/right/up/down hints for the point on his shield. This was on TRS-80 Model I, summer 1979.
Actually moving "sprites" (character graphics blocks) around the screen, Jetfire was my space shooter not QUITE like Defender because I had no ground, late 1980?
No copies of either survive, they would've been on cassettes lost/wiped long ago, a few copies of Jetfire were made for others.
I run most solos as journaling. They don't have to be deep, just narrate the events, and then assign chances. Most of the time I run the normal system for actions, and roll d6 to choose outcomes I don't control: 1: Disaster, 2-3: Failure, 4-5: Success, 6: Triumph. That's usually enough.
Mythic is, as Tiberius says, a lot.
I've also used Ironsworn, which is a little smaller and more character-beat-driven, which is good for some games, and Changeling esp might fit that.
Or the original thing that got me into soloing, De Profundis, which has no mechanics, just letters to yourself or others, detailing the horrific world you see behind the world.
A degree in CS is valueless for actual working jobs. You need to write software and show that you know what you're doing. And if you can do that, you may not even need a job from anyone else. The time when companies would just overstaff and have paid interns is long over.
Most people don't want the WoD 5E crew back. But if nobody from the original writers are present, and the new "White Wolf" is just brand with no new writers mentioned, then this is purely a marketing douchebag move.
Save your hopes and expectations for something that isn't obviously poisoned well.
LAInus.
It means I just crumbled into dust.

That's because there's only been 2.5 Star Wars movies, and then a bunch of stuff worse than the fanfic.

I've done a lot more since, of course.

Went to school before the late '90s: Write everything in paper notebooks & exam books.
Went to school between late '90s-2020s: Tap it all into a computer. Learn nothing.
Went to school late 2020s on: Write in paper notebooks, in between scavenging the ruins for food.
And what happens when you run that on Feb 29, 2024?
His books are also fun, The Stench of Honolulu was good, the opposite of a hard-boiled PI.

Get an 8-bit computer emulator, and learn 6502 or Z-80 assembly.
Usborne machine-code-for-beginners or any book by Rodnay Zaks.
It gets deeper from there, and modern CPUs are kind of awful to hand-hack assembly on, but you'll at least learn how the computer really works!
I first read the bottom right as "The Nanny", and I was wondering how Fran Drescher's plastic surgery got that bad.
Why does the right-wing kid not just come over to the left-wing?
I was doing some ST retrocomputing last night, and GEM was just great, so much cleaner and simpler than modern GUIs.

Product formerly known as one thing but then renamed, is now known as the old thing! Brands, IP, MARKETING!
No mention of the writers, which is the only part that actually matters, we should kill and compost all marketing douchebags and CEOs.
I only use nerdtree, and bind some scripts to F-keys. Haven't updated in a couple years, just works.
