How Does Snow Affect Your Gaming?

I, for one, live in NYC, and I grow tired of this white precipitation falling from the sky known as snow. Yes it is all pretty when it first hits the ground, and you may even get to stay home from school or work, but someone has to shovel this crap! The snow has done nothing but hinder my gaming!

Here is what the snow did for me:

1. I can not leave my house to pick up any new releases but get to look out my window at pretty snow. - Im sure you could managed a few extra days without it.
2. I have to spend a couple of hours shoveling snow, reducing my overall gaming time. - How many hours do you play a day? 20 out of 24?
3. Recovering from shoveling has left me in a state of exhaustion that leaves me with no desire to play anything except a rousing game of take a nap. - You dont have to play games ALLLLLL the time you know.
4. Luckily my internet has held firm, but I have heard stories from friends that their internet has slowed or stopped working all together. - Play single player games while you wait for your internet to speed up.
5. The snow has increased my overall World of Warcraft time, leaving me with an alt character that has grown nicely, but other games neglected. - And the problem with that is.....

I sound harsh, I know, but seriously. It's snow. Go out with your friends and have a snowball fight or something. EXCERSISE!

"Recovering from shoveling has left me in a state of exhaustion that leaves me with no desire to play anything except a rousing game of take a nap."

If this is true, you really need to exercise more.

ok so let me ask you... have you ever seen 2 feet of snow? Have you ever shoveled 2 feet of snow?

a pro athlete would be pooped after 2 hours of lifting a 20 pound shovel filled with snow 2000 times

Video Game Stocks Plunge on Fears Google's Genie 3 Will Replace Game Engines

When Google unveiled Genie 3, an AI that generates explorable 3D worlds from simple text prompts, investors responded by dumping video game stocks en masse—wiping out billions in market value in mere hours. But in their rush to flee, Wall Street confused "playable environments" with actual video games, ignoring the technology's hard limits while threatening the human creativity that makes games worth playing. As the industry faces a future of automated mediocrity driven by shareholder demands, the panic reveals a deeper truth: investors aren't betting on better games, just cheaper ones.

same level of fear that gen ai will replace art ... it is a tool that will help to prototipize open world games, but to completelly substitute game engines ... we are still a long way from it

Duplicate story. Or does Christopher just remove xbox stories that are similar?

Commentby22d ago

Humans have been developing things to simplify jobs since the beginning.
AI is going to remove the human factor from the job, but it can never replace all jobs that need a human factor.
I wish I could see the end of the story. What is the end, end goal, final piece, etc.
Is it a world run by machines, do humans live in a free world, does a dictator finally have an robot army, do humans finally free of working forever, does ChatGPT create an army to defeat Gemini., so many possibilities …
