Right, we've done most of the heavy progress. Now I've got some cleaning up to do. This may take a while... #Metroid #Livestream #Gaming youtube.com/live/EaTL8za...

every day I log on and see this girl here

This is just going to always be my go-to response to this kind of thing anthonymoser.github.io/writing/ai/h...

rittz (Psuedoregalia rittz) got hacked and now "rittz" is tagging everyone in his 5,800-user server to advertise a "game". Discussion permissions in the server are gone. Spread the word especially if you have a platform that has some overlap with the members in that server.

My website is up now! It's still very much a work-in-progress, but have my first proper post on here: my 12 Books of Christmas for 2025! Updating it every day until the 5th of January! daniellearmouth.com/posts/12-boo...

Back on the grind after spending a week being a bit burnt out by stuff. Presumably there can't be anything that could go wrong here, right? Right...? #Metroid #Livestream #Gaming youtube.com/live/tYFIfqC...

Putting 'In the Miso Soup' in the 'Asian Tourism' section of Waterstones is absolutely diabolical,holy shit!

What is it with CEOs being massive fans of guzzling the dumb bitch juice?

Tonight, I do......something. I don't know what I'll be doing, exactly, but I'll be doing something alright! Maybe someone should give me some step-by-step instructions for the next while. #Metroid #Livestream #Gaming youtube.com/live/ykqhZSz...

In this episode, we delve a little deeper into what may as well be a Bond villain's lair. Ever seen 'You Only Live Twice'? #Metroid #Livestream #Gaming youtube.com/live/xUE0u8W...

On this episode, I see what is at the bottom of the Ice Belt, now that everything is all melty and stuff. Would be funny if there was a boss fight or something......right? #Metroid #Livestream #Gaming youtube.com/live/VQzf0MW...

#NowSpinning: 'GNX' by Kendrick Lamar

Yeah, I'm not getting the bass line from this out of my head any time soon, am I. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSl4...

And so we have a gander around some funky volcano place. I'm sure we're not going to end up melting or anything. Do biker leathers protect against heat...? #Metroid #Livestream #Gaming youtube.com/live/fvkj-v_...

We're off to work! And it's in some sort of factory. Wonder if we'll get some special prize for it at the end. #Livestream #Gaming youtube.com/live/UHzaPQX...

If you're looking to learn a language, there are so many better resources available, plenty of which are free. If you're learning Japanese in particular, don't even bother touching Duolingo. It will not teach you anything and you'll be spinning your wheels.

Can you believe that it's been 18 years since the release of a proper brand new Metroid Prime game? Crazy how time flies, huh. Join me as I celebrate the release of Metroid Prime 4: Beyond! #Livestream #Gaming youtube.com/live/p67scZq...

Please tag me if you see any anime that appears to plainly be using AI transcriptions for closed captions. That's CLOSED CAPTIONS (SDH) for ENGLISH DUBS, not subtitles for Japanese audio. I wanna publicly keep track of some of these and start holding platforms accountable.

The state of my record collection after the day just past. I might struggle next year to be able to fit more stuff; I'm probably going to need some new shelving...

There's a certain irony to Sega realising "oh wait, people aren't buying our games because we keep putting out 'Definitive' editions some time after", mixed with them binning off the OG Yakuza 0 in favour of the Director's Cut which... ...yeah...

Sorry, Mr. Executive, but I don't believe in a 'middle ground' for generative AI as it relates to game development. Any use of it is a scourge on the medium, and I make no exception with that claim. There's no nuance to be had beyond it being exploitative, anti-labour, inhuman and downright ugly.

Good to know that a bunch of new games from big name publishers (Ubisoft, Nexon, Level-5, Activision) have used AI for things like artwork and voiceover. Truly wonderful, love it, incredible, amazing. This industry can eat the fattest cheesiest dick.

I'm purposefully avoiding Metroid Prime 4 previews for a pretty good reason. Previews run the risk of colouring an experience, which for a game series like Metroid, can make certain things seem worse than they ought to. Not to say that the dork isn't a problem, but how much of one, we don't know.

I guess this is how I write 北 now.

🤔

It's been a hot minute since I've been given some literal fuckery with the Anki stuff... I just want an example sentence featuring '不特定' which doesn't involve the concept of eating ass.

I went a bit mad again and bought some more books. This should be the last load of books I buy until a good chunk of the way into next year.

TLDR; The PSF has made the decision to put our community and our shared diversity, equity, and inclusion values ahead of seeking $1.5M in new revenue. Please read and share. pyfound.blogspot.com/2025/10/NSF-... 🧵

Oh dang, Signalis turned three today? Neat! I played through it again last week and it remains an incredible experience. Go play it if you haven't.

Banger price. Grab it.

'Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner' has an absolutely fantastic soundtrack that doesn't get the recognition or love that it truly merits. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Z0U...

The medical journal where RFK learned that circumcision causes autism.

so many of the small indignities of daily life come from us being denied the ability to tell a rich man in a tech company to fuck off. minesweeper has microtransactions. paid services have ads. the opt out says maybe later. the drive thru is a broken chatbot. your car is an ipad. fuck off! fuck off!

I've been using Anki across the last nine months and change now, and I have accrued a pocket dictionary's worth of words from books I have been reading. As a consequence, I have reached a funny number.

I guess someone unplugged the load-bearing Mac Mini earlier and got the M4 version in the Amazon sales as a replacement.

I've been doing this Anki thing for nine months now. This is actually going pretty well, I must say. I'm not running into nearly as many unknown words as I used to.

Been playing a lot of Shadow of the Colossus recently, and lately I started a PS4 remake playthrough. It's going well!

Nope. Start again, @bsky.app; we didn't ask for this.

We don’t want AI slop. Stop sending us AI slop. Stop wasting our time with AI slop. It doesn’t sound good. It’s antithetical to our core values. You didn’t even make it. Knock it off.
