In May’s local elections, Labour’s implied vote share was 24.3% & Reform’s was more than 50%. Last night Labour’s Andy Burnham received about 55% of the vote, a full 20 percentage points more than Reform’s Robert Kenyon. So Burnham returned what looked like a safe Reform seat back to a Labour seat

Reform have now lost six by-elections in a row in England, Scotland and Wales. Their national poll rating is 26% – below Labour in 1983 – and Farage’s approval rating is -37. They’re very far from the voice of the people and need to stop being treated as such.

I’m focused on researching (mostly) niche and/or not publicly known cancelled games right now. I know hardly anyone will watch them because they’re not connected to known franchises but I just want to make Game History Secrets videos on whatever I find interesting.

Epic releases Fortnite video that's trying to launder the company's use of AI in the art pipeline, but artists I spoke to simply aren't having it: aftermath.site/epic-fortnite-...

My main worry is that we’re banning social media for kids but not AI. So you can’t speak to real people online anymore, kids, but you sure can talk to your fake artificial friend who weirdly loves to talk about taking your own life!

Nigel Farage is publishing pictures of himself wearing an England football shirt. But he wants to deport more than half the squad.

Something Makerfield polling doesn’t capture is the parties’ ad strategy in the final few days. For example, Reform has a homepage takeover of a local news site today, presumably part of a wider end-of-campaign push, driving readers to a YouTube video of its candidate that already has 60k views.

I interviewed a wide group of people in the UFO/UAP community — believers, experiencers, a congressman, whistleblower advocates, an artist who says her work was stolen by a hoaxer. I found a community anxious, insulted and eager for more answers. www.washingtonpost.com/style/2026/0...

Many in the UFO community are upset with Trump, insulted that the White House's Aliens website was bait to talk about ICE arrests. They call it dehumanizing and a clown show. “I think it’s gross on so many level," a ufologist documentary filmmaker tells me. www.washingtonpost.com/style/2026/0...

Nigel Farage. A proper football fan who hasn't moved an inch in almost two years.

The AI slop deluge during Next Fest is dispiriting just by itself, but they aren’t even using it to make the games better. They are all janky, half-baked messes. They are being super lazy even *with* this powerful technology. It’s like there are no standards anymore.

Kemi Badenoch has been told to sack the party’s deputy chairman over “sickening” comments he made about the firebombing of the PM’s family home on the anniversary of Jo Cox MP’s murder.

#C64 #Delphian progress: modified my own 3D model editor to output files for the C64, so now I have a spaceship in game.🙂Lots of changes to the 3D engine to support polygon types: points, lines, triangles, quads, and pentagons. Solid polygons might be playable on a 1Mhz C64...🤔

#C64 #Delphian progress: here's a little WIP video clip showing a bit of walking around, the WIP galaxy chart, and of course a bit of flying through space with my new circle draw and some space debris.🙂All this is on a stock 1Mhz C64. More to come...

We see talk about Gen AI use in art, but I don't see it enough for writing. If you're not a writer, hire a ghost writer. Hire an editor to proofread your work. Just as much as you would hire an artist when designing visual media. Selling AI-written books and passing them off as your own? Ick.

This is the hill I will die on: If you prompted it into existence, you didn’t create a damn thing. You’re not an artist, you’re not an author, you’re not a director. You’re standing on the shoulders of skilled individuals and trying to proclaim yourself the same. You aren’t. Do it yourself.

The thing about AI is it’s… just not that good. Like, it’s *fine* at stuff, but never more so than your second-most trustworthy colleague. It’s also a bullshitter. A really plausible fake-it-till-you-make-it bullshitter. It’s like the digital equivalent of a posh 20-year-old boy.

Isn't it great to read some truly good news for once? 😃 Solid, irrefutable proof that vaccines work, and that science is worth pursuing. Congratulations and thanks to all those behind this! 👏👏👏👏👏 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A White House staffer’s secret memo—as the last person who saw paperwork before it reached the president’s desk—warned chief of staff Susie Wiles of Stephen Miller’s dangerous plan to get rid of habeas corpus and invoke the Insurrection Act. trib.al/p7AhW1W

A lot of historical errors are the fault of assumptions, misunderstandings, and games of telephone. To give you an example of how this sort of things happens, let's take a look at the persistent myth that Batman '66 happened because a TV producer saw a showing of Batman '43 at the Playboy mansion.

definitely some... "mixed signals" going on when epic is really pushing AI for UE6, while the devs on gears e-day (which uses UE5 and was even on the stage for today's state of unreal) said within the past week "we *swear* we didn't use AI in making this game"

I spent the last few months talking to over 30 game developers about generative AI. It began as a sort of interview survey but became a pretty comprehensive collection of arguments against the technology altogether. www.gamesradar.com/games/why-so...

Nigel Farage is breaking British company law. Missed a deadline to file a confirmation statement with Companies House. Failed to verify his identity, required by law. Failure to comply is a criminal offence. Low attendance in parliament but busy with 2nd jobs, collecting money from foreign donors.

Some lovely news today: Games That Weren't enters its fourth print run from 5pm BST today. Thank you to all the developers and contributors who shared their memories and materials, and to everyone helping keep these lost pieces of gaming history alive.

I had a big old chat with Jenova Chen in honour of Thatgamecompany’s 20th birthday. This bit about Valve really tickled me. If only they’d been happy to let the guns go, Thatgamecompany could have been indelibly associated with Steam instead of PlayStation
