> Wart > Mouser This is surely what Keegan-Michael Key was referencing with the "deep cuts" quote

with the power of claude bluesky's coders have turbo-charged their productivity to new heights never thought possible which is why they've only shipped like two new features in the last year

Every few years, I inadvertently take a bite of a chocolate chip. Every time, it's the single most revolting thing I've ever tasted by a significant margin I love chocolate. I love milk chocolate. I love dark chocolate. I *cannot stand* chocolate chips. My taste buds are taking the piss

Checking out the settings for Stoat, and these might be the single funniest descriptors for UK/US English I've ever seen

It's so wild that we live in a world where the response to "teenagers don't like genocide" is politicians pushing "let's stop teenagers from using the internet" so hard that Discord has opted to shoot its own foot off www.theverge.com/tech/875309/...

The 2026 Global Game Jam #GGJ26 was last weekend, so let's take a look at their historical data for engine usage. 📈 @godotengine.org is having a good run! #Godot is now firmly established as the #2 engine in game jams (correlated by #GMTKJam data), rapidly closing the gap with #Unity.

...Is this the first time Nintendo *explicitly* acknowledged enbies? Like, we've had characters whose gender is unknown or unmentioned, and plenty of androgynous visual designs, but it was always on the player to extrapolate intent. So to suddenly NAMEDROP "nonbinary" as a gender option is unreal

It's only January and I've already found my GOTY

Butter on toast goes hard, damn

The altnps account is the 13th most followed account on Bluesky and has more followers than every single news outlet other than the NYT, NPR and Meidas Touch on here. They actively spread misinformation and exploit gullible old people for cash. Accounts this unethical do not deserve to exist.

Looking into the laptop market for the first time in years, and holy hell I didn't realize how shoehorned AI has been for them. Literally every single listing touts an "NPU" and CoPilot integration. I'm having Wii U flashbacks where you're forced to pay a premium for hardware nobody cares about

I understand why so many people outright reject Discord DMs from unknown users, but I could never bring myself to do the same. Not for any moral or philosophical reason, but because once in a blue moon I'll get something like this

Funny how my introduction with Godot was trying to get the GameCube Adapter working with it natively. This inadvertently caused me to zero-in on the nuances of its buildsystem, a key aspect of why I'm employed by the foundation today Thanks for the cheap-ass proprietary hardware Nintendo, I owe ya'

I was wondering why I haven't seen more people hyped over AsumSaus giving Slap City genuine coverage in their latest video, only to remember that the overwhelming majority of the platform fighter community refuses to leave Twitter ...That's quite thematically appropriate, now that I think about it

AsumSaus with actual Slap City representation that isn't just a passing comment, but an actual 10 minute breakdown on why the game's Slap™s? You fucking love to see it

Saw some people worried the Discord AI survey is a password grabber because it wasn't tied to an official post. While the latter is an indication it was probably meant to be internal, the former *was* legit. This can be verified with the same domain being utilized here: discord.com/safety/moder...

The full quote starts out with an interesting, if misinformed, distinction: "So first off – there is not going to be any GenAI art in Divinity." I can see a lot of pivoting like this in the future, where executives will want to use GenAI for everything except "traditional"/"fine" art

He has arrived

2026 Media Thread Never done one of these before, but I really wanna start chronicling my media for posterity, and it might even help with my creative writing block so lesgo

Oh so we're a pariah state now, that's cool, 2026 starting out strong

Really cool how BlueSky lets you curate your newsfeed to only the areas you explicitly show interest in and just kidding it's all sports and entertainment fuck you

Wow it’s almost like putting “embrace AI” in your headline is going to deter people from actually reading into the fact that they want the kind of AI that aids in production and doesn’t replace workers

Out of nearly 100 qrts, there was EXACTLY one that rightfully called out this article as clickbait and provided a contextual screenshot of what they actually meant This isn't Gen AI, nor is it a misinformed executive. It's the same team that weathered the CGI boom saying they're ready for round two

Well, that's annoying Metroid Prime 4 has support for using the right joycon as a mouse, and the Switch 2 outright says it supports detaching the Joy Con controllers, but this seems to not apply to handheld mode? Sure, this is a niche setup, but I'm shocked it doesn't function *period*

( Spoilers for Kirby Air Riders ) The amount of self-restraint it must've taken to not plaster this shit in the marketing of the game is saintly. This is EXACTLY as stupid and overpowered as it looks, and I love it

The level of polish for even the most niche elements of Air Riders has been a joy to dig into. For instance: you might already know each rider has a dedicated animation for ramming into a wall; however, there's *additional* animations for characters with altered physical states in the air!

Today's been a very good day

No more reposts or signal-boosts for people who screenshot text without a link. It’s 2025, and I am done even allowing for the possibility of good faith. You are denying readers context and depriving a writer and their outlet of any chance of profit, all for the sake of boosting your own clout. No.

Hey look, Israel broke the cease-fire, twice, in two different ways, within 24 hours - again.

Shoutouts to the bsky mod team for continually banning progressive voices without explanation, leading to ~24 hours where everyone calls them out for being dumbasses until they're inevitably reinstated. It's strange they've made that a routine, but it gives me someone new to follow every week or so

Absolutely heinous.

On one hand, the price-to-content discussion surrounding games lends itself to toxic derailment far too easily, and as such should be exercised with extreme caution On the other hand, it can't be overstated how INSANE a launch price of $20 is for a product of this quantity and quality. Buy Silksong

Team Cherry cackling maniacally as they made Blighttown, immediately followed by ANOTHER BLIGHTTOWN

Direct time, gamers

Silksong is so goddamn good. Only now getting to play it because I was too invested in Look Outside for being so goddamn good

I'll admit that I wasn't too crazy about Gavin Newsom at first, but the AI generated memes and homophobic jokes from his supporters really won me over

Do you know about the importance of the thumb-travel range for a controller analog stick? This new concept will change the way we play games with analog sticks. *I'm dead serious.* It also opens the way for thumbstick emulation for more accurate retro gaming. Wanna know more? Read my article.

Air Riders looks INCREDIBLE so far, to a point it's almost dream-like. That is: this is how child me, hyperfixated on the original, would've imagined the sequel looking

opening your new game announcement with this is so fucking funny and real

LinkedIn might be the most net-negative social media platform I've ever seen. I've never once seen a "found this banger on LinkedIn" type post; the best it ever gets is self-deprecation like this Does anyone ENJOY that platform? Has it ever served a function, or does everyone just pretend it does?

I'm old enough to remember a year or two ago when both "we're not killing journalists that's illegal!" and "We're not bombing *hospitals* for god's sake" were major talking points. Violations of these things now no longer seem to even register. Christ.

Just got my first spotting as "the Godot guy" instead of "the NASB guy", which I guess was an inevitability

Porn and art with sexual themes deserve to exist on their own merit, not because censoring them has knock-on effects for non-sexual content. Please stop expressing outrage by implying that censorship would be okay if it *just* affected sex workers and artists engaging with sexual themes.

Finished Donkey Kong Bananza A profoundly cathartic gameplay loop from beginning to end. The Odyssey team crafted a true elevation of a formula they've already knocked out of the park. I can't believe how much genuine effort and passion went into the story beats of their FIRST-PARTY 3D PLATFORMER

One of the best parts about Bananza that I'm not seeing much discussion of: every single button/trigger performs a *unique* action It's not like Odyssey where half the inputs share a function, arbitrarily locking certain techniques behind motion controls; now every move is tied to a physical input

Bananza bosses feel like their own Dorkly parody, where the joke of a giant gorilla tearing into you in less than 10 seconds is literally the gameplay loop

Average Mario Odyssey Boss: "Time your hits when the enemy shows their weak spot!" Average DK Bananza Boss:
