Started a PS3 deep dive and in one of the videos there's an EB Games window ad

When the first 60gb batch sold out EB Games upped the price to 999 or if you sold them your PS2 and 20 games you could buy for regular price

Makes you realize just how long EB/Gamestop have been pieces of shyt and people just dealt with it. They come calling me last year this time to redeem $5 store credit that's been sitting there for at least 10 years. I'd pay a lot more to never go in one again before I come for that 5 :dead:

I'm going to have to find some other places to order my games from because I'm done dealing w/Best Buy online.

I cancel my pre-order for Double Dragon Revive and used a $10 certificate towards it. Normally the certificate would be reissued. I asked because I thought about buying something else and was told they don't do it.

They don't even honor their price match program either so why should I spend my $$$...

They didn't listen to the same warnings about social media/smartphone addictions, surely they'll pay attention now right?

Over 800 public figures, including "AI godfathers" and Steve Wozniak, sign open letter to ban superintelligent AI​



A hot potato: Tech companies are in a race to create superintelligent AI, regardless of what the consequences of creating something much smarter than humans might be. It's led to hundreds of public figures from the world of tech, politics, media, education, religion, and even royalty signing an open letter calling for a ban on the development of superintelligence until certain conditions are met.

Among the 800+ signatories are two of the "Godfathers of AI," Geoffrey Hinton and Yoshua Bengio. Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak and Virgin Group founder Richard Branson are on the list, too.

Former chief strategist to Donald Trump, Steve Bannon, former Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Mike Mullen, Glenn Beck, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and musicians Will.I.am and Grimes also signed the letter. Even Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, feel strongly about the subject.

The letter calls for a prohibition on the development of superintelligent AI until there is both broad scientific consensus that it will be done safely and controllably and there is strong public support.

Ps5 gotta do better with demos.

I mean I guess that’s what the game trials are for, but still.
