Again, I cannot emphasize enough: do not go to the US even if you're privileged enough to have never been scared or worried of a border crossing in you're life. Do not go ESPECIALLY for something as optional & outrageously expensive as GDC. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Loving the speed of iOS 26. Everything else, not so much 🤢

Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?

Kinda agree.

Good morning Bluesky !

One of my GBA tunes is featured on this as a secret track (so I’m led to believe). See if you can find it! #Rare40

Another thing is this @rare.co.uk 40th Anniversary Box Set Vinyl from @iam8bit.com, featuring many of our best tracks from across the years with its frankly ravishing sleeve art that we've lost more time than we care to admit poring over. Pre-orders open soon: bit.ly/rare-40th

The evening show is some comedy - some poetry - and some serious stuff too

Very much time to stop using WeTransfer, with their updated terms that clearly state they have the right to use anything you transfer across their service, to train AI, create derivative works, basically steal and use anything you post through them. This is now laid out in section 6.3, posted below:

Guess I'm out in the wild, again. wiloverton.com for all your silly cartoon needs.

Does anyone like The 1975?

Now is as good of a time as any to steal things on the high seas. Also, Sea of Thieves is on sale.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs (hard mode, no SW, ST, or LOTR

The games business is about games. If you’re in the games business, and somehow (as often happens) your company somehow is now focused on something else (AI, XR, “IP,” acquisitions, etc.) you’re in for a period of struggle. Everyone will wonder what’s wrong. But you know. It’s about games. Gameplay.

In 2003, anti-war activists broke into RAF Fairford to stop US bombers heading to Iraq. Keir Starmer defended their actions and said it was justified to prevent war crimes. Now his government is banning Palestine Action for doing the same. The Prime Minister is a hypocrite.

I worked in Burger King at Stafford services on the M6. Loads of minor celebs used to come in but I remember The Krankies coming in, looking at the menu then walking out again. I guess we didn’t serve anything that was ‘fandabidozi’.

If your business model doesn’t work without breaking the law, then you’re not in business. You’re in organized crime.

Thousands show solidarity at #TransRightsAreHumanRights Demo in Parliament Square.

I will never understand how a group of bigoted women go all out to destroy the rights of a tiny, marginalised group of predominantly harmless women instead of using their centuries of built up rage to actively destroy the patriarchy and the actual men who do us real harm.

get your feet wet in spatial audio with these free plugins from dear reality. www.sennheiser.com/en-us/immers... I guess these plugins are no longer being maintained since acquired by sennheiser but maybe they will work for you long enough until they don’t! #gameaudio #sounddesign #mixing

Simply put, art is intrinsically made by humans.

A good chunk of the Gen AI argument is based on the same flawed discussion that there's been around skills for far too long. A fundamental lack of understanding of what an idea is. Visual art is not just 'a picture'. Having an idea about a single moment in a story isn't writing. Thread...

No offense to Jim and Jeff

I highly recommend hearing the entire speech. It is brutal in its frankness, but offers hope that Europe can come out the other side stronger and more united.

French Senator Claude Malhuret: "Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag soundtrack is the Journey soundtrack sped up.

Delete Google.

An excellent reworking of one of my Grunty’s Revenge tunes. 😊

www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYgT... I worked on theses around 2017 and I'll be honest I feel the mixes are quite rough since I have no idea how to recorded like stems in my DAW so I used audacity. Anyway I wanted to share this to @jimthehumanoid.bsky.social for a while haha.

There is no hate like Christian love.

In 1978 NASA selected a new class of astronauts, the most diverse in the agency’s history. This is their story. #16Sunsets podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/1...
