AI will be around no doubt, my guess it will be Chinese AI

That would be very unfortunate for America.

That would be like deciding to just stay an low income agricultural civilization rather than join the Industrial Revolution.

You'll regret it when your competitors come back with tanks and all you have is a pitch-fork.

I am not sure what the difference in auto-ack but indeed on a couple of maps there is a difference.  I am not complaining since it is the same for all players.

Alex has a $20 a month AI it wanted us to upgrade to..

Said no thanks..

AI will be around no doubt, my guess it will be Chinese AI like 90% of everything else most have in their household now..

Thanks, Dale.   


We just need volunteers who understand AI programming to create the AI missions for Terrain uploading.  This stuff is over my head.

Some can't justify the costs...

Maybe the real scare is the bubble it's created in the market..

Well I already said there is a huge bubble in AI companies.

What they can or cannot spend on capex is not my problem.  No one says anyone is guaranteed to survive the tectonic shift.

The strong will, the weak with be chopped up and their resources distributed to those that can hack it.

Such is the order of things.

Just like the internet boom and bust.  Hint, we're still using the internet.

Hardware and Software / Re: Recent RAM prices . . . incredible

« Last post by Shuffler on Yesterday at 02:07:49 PM »

I just checked through some ram I have up here at the shop. I had let a couple of the guys get some awhile back. Looks like all that is left I very old 512mb and some 1gb along with a few 2gb sticks of Crucial DDR3 1600. Old stuff indeed.

I have more at home I can check through. Much of this at the shop is only good for someone who likes to strip gold.

It's uncommon to take damage when deacking a town.

Yeah I personally cannot remember any time over the years where I consistently was severely damaged from town ack. It's 8? auto guns so should take about 3 passes in any 2x cannon bird and maybe 100 rounds of ammo or so.
