First CES panel. Intuit CMO Thomas Ranese is proud of his company's integration with OpenAI, which involves giving AI read/write access to tax data. Since prompt injection attacks are unavoidable, I asked him who will be liable when customer data is exposed: Intuit, OpenAI, etc? He had no idea.

I want to do a thread on "Small Press Red Flags" brought to you by years in the trenches combined with some issues I’m seeing pop up again in writer circles. Note: an isolated incident might not be a red flag, but cumulative flags are always worth examination. First off: Let’s talk about money.

Thanks to your donation dollars we can do important data recovery work, like uncovering the print art used for Generations Lost on the Sega Genesis, revealing two abs that were thought to be lost due to cropping

🚨 Today, I formally introduced articles of impeachment against Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. RFK Jr. has turned his back on science and the safety of the American people. Michiganders cannot take another day of his chaos.

Five years ago, Donald Trump tried to overthrow the government. He was dangerous then, and he’s dangerous now.

I really don't like the Borderlands games so this GDQ block is doing nothing for me.

The extent to which Games Done Quick has helped to steer the larger speedrunning community - one of the most hardcore video game enthusiast subcultures there is - into becoming something so welcoming, inclusive and supportive astonishes me

If your resolution this year is to support more independent bookstores, hi!👋🏽 We’re Bookshop.org, an ethical alternative to Amazon for buying books online where every purchase supports indie bookstores all over the U.S. 😌📚 (And our CEO has never gone to space, just saying)

Solgryn using generative AI in Wings of Vi 2 somehow doesn't even surprise me. Another day, another reason to be INCREDIBLY disappointed.

I do not believe in the death penalty for humans. I do support the death penalty for corporations. When they murder people, let's dissolve them. Break them up, destroy their technology, nationalize their assets. arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

If you need a reason not to enlist, there's many.

Even if the worst person online takes a GLP-1, I put it to you that ridiculing their body or hating on them for using a med the WHO has classified as “essential” is missing the point

Promoting an indie game in 2025-6 is VASTLY different to how it was in 2014. It feels like Pipistrello filled the Zelda-troid-ish niche that Mina left vacant, and that still hasn't hit 1000 user reviews yet. The Shovel Knight spinoffs haven't sold great either, IIRC, despite the knight's ubiquity.

There's still time to achieve greatness and become the Champion of Ohio during the Steam Winter Sale. #indiegame #gamedev

BRO it SUCKS outside and you’re too good for sunflower seeds + dried fruit????!?!?

Gamers are usually a pretty cursed and evil group but within an hour of AGDQ 2026 starting they've raised almost $20k for the Prevent Cancer Foundation. I think that's pretty neat.

When asking ChatGPT a question; here's the most common websites for it to quote as the source, also giving some clue of where the training data came from:

Oh, and the 2026 Nerd Olympics just started too. Games Done Quick, running all week for cancer prevention charity and good times. Check out the full schedule here: gamesdonequick.com/schedule/62

Hi new followers! If you don't already know I have a new game coming out on January 22nd! It's a narrative adventure set in the year 2003 where you are a young writer trying to make sense of the world: store.steampowered.com/app/2088810/...

Everyone is allowed 1 (one) dirt. Raise your hands if you want one ✋. #AGDQ2026

Feels weird to release it the same month as Yakuza Kiwami 3 and DQ7 Reimagined. Gonna be a rough month.

This post would be given an F in any sane college writing class. Which isn't the point - it's that by by sanewashing Trump's actions you are actively fascist, too - but it's the extra insulting touch that our representatives are barely even literate. Though, perhaps that is accurate representation?

the American opioid crisis is almost entirely the work of Purdue Pharmaceuticals and the Sackler family of murderous profiteers, but because Americans can't imagine anything being their fault, we've invaded Venezuela over it

Nothing is wilder than watching US pundits on many sides of the aisle argue about whether Trump got the right permissions to invade another nation, instead of, you know, whether any part of the US government should be allowed to once again invade a nation based on US preferences.

I see a lot of indie game promotion on this site that doesn't include a Steam link to the game. Put a link in the post. Requiring people to inspect the post, not find a link, and click to the profile in hopes of a link is a barrier of entry you can't afford.

It's fascinating to see the changes in one company's logo over the years.

the US destabilizes Latin American countries, kills innocent people, motivates those innocent people to immigrate here for a better life, then punishes those people for daring to dream of a life in which they are treated like human beings. and my mother is one of the lucky ones. it’s all connected.

Left messages with Quigley and Duckworth Such a great government we have, that our representatives have the weekend off while the president commits international war crimes openly

Lest anyone for a single moment thinks this latest coup is a somehow a dramatic breach of long-term US foreign policy.

Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries haven’t said anything about Venezuela

Do I know anyone who is fluent in French (from France, not Quebecois) that can help me reach a telecomm company about internet someone got under my email but their name? They apparently haven't paid the bill and are being bothered, a lot.

I'm playing Fire Emblem Engage and Nintendo's tutorialization is the fucking worst. If I'm choosing hard/classic, throw the tutorial shit in a menu and let me play the game unimpeded. Oh yeah? Ranged users can attack me from afar? I'm 40 fucking years old, I've played a video game before!

I'm going to try to do productive things today. The best way to do that will be to get off of here and do what I can. Final thought: The people and systems that made this possible will not save us. A system is what it does. It is working as intended. We will have to save ourselves and each other.
