You mean ...the ban based on cherry picked science from a popular US science book, that the government rushed through, buoyed by campaigns in the Murdoch Press and by morning radio hosts, that enables mass surveillance for all Australians to access the ban? Can't think why Roblox got away with it!

Because it’s an excuse to start to bring in Digital IDs and verification - it was never about protecting the children.

Fucking horrifying (and great) article. Prof Marcus Carter is doing great work.

1/2 In a D&D one shot with my friends maybe a year ago, we raided Arkhan the Cruel's tower in Avernus and my Dragonborn Bard called... Hornbag McHornface... abandoned the party at near death to seduce Arkhan in bed (successfully mind you, BIG charisma).

It's my first day in the office in 4 weeks. A classic day of train issues, route to office issues, sweating my ole off... But it was all better to bump into and get a hug from @rhunwords.com 🥰

how it feels to miss all the narrative design discourse this weekend

One month out from the under-16s ban and almost all of the users caught up in the Discord data breach caused by age assurance appeals were based in Australia, OAIC has finally confirmed. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

I'm adding really clear comments to the narrative so that the developer can understand what to do instead of making sure it reads well 😤

What's this about bad game writing? *opens up yarn spinner and cracks knuckles*

Good morning. I’m back in the (Controller) Club

AJ putting new meaning towards “putting my skin on the line for this Kickstarter” 🤣 Will we get there? #Castleton Kickstarter (we’re 67% Funded and in the final 45 hours…)

I legitimately didn't know they were competing with Steam and it's crazy to me that they burnt so much money on what sounds like something with very little (or wildly misguided) market research.

At a fundamental level, we have to accept much of silicon valley has gone insane.

Given Supanova’s past, this seems on brand

"The driver of the truck told local law enforcement that the monkeys were dangerous and posed a threat to humans." At this point I think we deserve what we get.

Sometimes, I wonder if I’m getting old/behind on embracing new technology. Then I remember, no (at least not in this case): It’s just that AI sucks. It’ll never be the money-maker execs want it to be, and in the process, it’s decimating industries (and the people within them) along with the planet

openai are disgusting freaks

Marg Rafferty isn't on BlueSky but her investigation into how much extra you pay to get your food delivered by Ubereats/Doordash/Milkrun etc is so good. The woman is a genius. www.choice.com.au/shopping/eve...

Ayyyy! We did a pitching thing and got to speak to the amazing Leah about it (thank you! 🫰🏼). We had a great day at Play Now and the conversations there broke down barriers that allowed even more natural yarns to occur throughout the following week.

More people need to see that Crash Bandicoot watched Notting Hill in Sydney for the launch of Crash Team Racing in 1999. Go to the PlayStation AU Instagram account it’s beautiful.
