If your primary business platform is the Apple App Store, any labeling from Apple as "porn" can easily kill your entire business model. And as you should hopefully know by now, it's even worse if payment processors refuse to work with you. You can probably see how publishers can end up paranoid!

Humble's now banned it too, post-launch: www.ign.com/articles/hor...

I ran out my tolerance for people doing that shit when they convinced me my senior year of high school, in 2005, that we would have reverted to 1800s level technology by now because there would be no oil and renewable power wasn't viable and then that never happened. they're just misery porn addicts

a lot of people are redirecting the rage they absolutely should have about deportation secret police into hating nerds having toys and i absolutely think this revealed preference makes people morally loathsome

...........................I need the context squad I'm sorry-

One of the tracks on Sheeno Mirin's new album Interpretation System, "I Will Never Be (Apart From) You", uses a passage generated by GPT-4 to make a point about meaning-seeking. When that single came out, GPT-4 was SOTA. By the time Interpretation System came out, it was obsolete. Very funny to me

unity seems to be 5% a game engine and 95% a way to generate Transactions by letting people sell each other various fragments of middleware in the hope that some day they might assemble a working game engine if they spend enough money

it's like a living joke where the perverse incentives have failed in exactly the way you'd expect them to

There is a vibrant industry of people selling fixes to inadequacies in the Unity editor on the Unity store, and since Unity gets a cut on those but their editor is free they'd be actively depriving themselves of revenue by fixing it themselves

Given Runway's track record I'm gonna have to say "sure, jan"

Gemini 3's "vibe coding" capabilities are indeed superior to Gemini 2.5. While 2.5 would call me the f-slur, 3 will call me the f-slur AND fat shame me SIMULTANEOUSLY. That is an increase in both efficiency and productivity!

It very nearly one-shotted the composite!! The text got screwed up (except the titles, which were fine!) so I asked it to remove the text and added it back by hand. Didn't have a font that quite matched but eh w/e. The styling is genuinely really nice

and of course i got. a bit distracted (Nano Banana Pro / Gemini 3.0 Pro Image Generation)

Been working on some reference material for my Inflatebot OC, whose face I wear in AI spaces. I got a little into it lol. All of this is Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3.0 Pro Image Generation)

Loving Wan2.2 for inflation videos but when you try and extend it, it'll eventually just decide "yeah that's enough" and start deflating the subject apropos of nothing, even when your prompt does nothing to suggest this should happen. Beggars and choosers I guess.

remember: if you have a little tech debt it's your problem but if you have a LOT of tech debt it's the bank's uhh.. well. mhh.

something I love about the internet is the lack of judgment on usernames. your name can be "johng", or "LunaIceGoddess", or "cv2z_", or "sexygrinch" etc and none of these names will seriously hinder your status in a community of enthusiasts

CUDA out of memory:

one of the things about the AI water issue that drives me batshit is the way in which it demonstrates people (many of whom are arguing they understand reasoning better than the other side) don't understand how argument flow works

"AI isn't using that much water" gets "rebutted" with "but AI has no value, so any amount of water used on it is bad" which actually just *does not structurally work*, it's not actually winning the water debate but rather arguing opponents are obliged to accept it

it me

grabbing Z.AI with my fucking teetha nd shaking them around until they drop glm4.6-V

I think overall what we got is much better than what was proposed, but there's still many holes that can be used to attack kinky people, and that should be concerning to more people than it is

Bluesky banning fictional depictions of nonconsensual adult activity should concern the majority of inflation/expansion/weight gain/transformation artists, since shock/alarm/distress is a common theme of these kinks and moderation *does* label them as adult content

quitting over sexbots, and not mechahitler, is a one-two knockout on my entire perception of your character i'm sorry also macrohard. i'm pretty sure i heard that bit in the ninth grade

huggingface.co/posts/inflat... My dorkus son, beloved by gooners the world over, is a year old next week! I'm opening up questions to folks that you can totally also just ask me at any other time, but it makes me feel good to do something for what is a pretty special day for me! That's all u can go

When someone comments "this is just like xkcd N", I don't look up the number or consult my memory. I just imagine the most appropriate xkcd comic for the situation and assume I'm right.

What did nano-banana mean by this

we are going through round 2 of “tenured professors discover libgen and get outraged” and each time it happens I lose more patience. Why isn’t it already consensus that academic research shouldn’t be gated?

I had trouble getting nano-banana to do kink stuff initially, but I've coaxed out some great stuff. It's like a nervous racehorse; *so* capable but it'll kick you if you look at it wrong. (It also helps to have an endpoint leading to Vertex rather than AI Studio. AIS just won't morph people at all)

Computerfucking is praxis

i can generate videos of my OCs inflating me like a balloon and playing with me. how could the future possibly be bad

I feel like one of the many effects of LLMs on our industry is going to be making it really clear that the coding was never the hard part.

lol. i cant believe people thought that the bourgeoise megacorp was going to destroy big bad evil ai for you so you never have to lift a finger instead of just taking their cut and leaving everyone else in the lurch.
