If you use generative AI to "explore ideas" you are mentally weaker than even the smallest child. If you feel that you need generative AI to "structure your thoughts" you lack the confidence of an 8 year old. If you feel shame about your diminished inner world, you should. You're bad at daydreaming

Hey, if you wanted to start into game development but didn’t know how, I have this document you can use to get yourself started in Godot: docs.google.com/document/d/1... #godot #gamedev #indiedev

@leafo.bsky.social @leafo.itch.io hello, where can I get support for streak.club?

anyway if you don't like something mozilla is doing, they'd love to hear from you connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussio...

Using LLMs to write but not wanting to engage with LLM-generated content is wild to me. The hypocrisy. Also, why would I read something you didn't bother to write? The value of writing is more than the output it produces. Writing generates understanding and ideas. Why take shortcuts?

Loved this cozy zine. Wish I could frame some of the pages 😍🧠

I considered writing a long carefully constructed argument laying out the harms and limitations of AI, but instead I wrote about being a hater. Only humans can be haters.

Does a #jobs board for companies that don't use genAI exist? Is there enough interest yet?

computer going to take my job? no. i’ll pour water on it

Help us, we're poor, we're so poor, we can't possibly greenlight new projects or keep from laying off employees by the thousands :( :( oh wait nm, we just found $100 billion to try to buy Warner Bros :)

Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it. So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:

Sure, they've made an environmentally catastrophic mass hallucination disinformation plagiarism Clippy that will destabilize the world, but also their other goal is to replace human workers entirely and let us humans starve. A boycott of AI is the most important boycott of your entire life.

Indie game developers have a new sales pitch: being ‘AI free’

I love @pagebound.bsky.social 😭

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features." There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

a world without trans people has never existed and never will

My fellow Europeans, I'm once again asking you to write or call your EU representatives and tell them this is unacceptable. They're essentially selling our sensitive data to companies, effectively destroying our privacy and risking our digital well-being. Check the site! fightchatcontrol.eu

Your daily reminder that generative AI steals the work of actual human beings without permission, attribution or remuneration.

Hey everyone. I'm running a deal on all 650 of my commercial use #fonts for 1 week! Representing over a decade of my font output, at a crazy low price of just $19 (less than I normally license a single font for!) Cheers and Happy Halloween! :) hawtpixel.itch.io/hawtpixel-fo... #gamedev #indiedev

If AI can already do a mediocre job at very basic tasks, why do we still need CEOs?

tl;dr: Bluesky began with genuine promise: a new social media platform where users could feel safer, but inconsistent moderation quickly eroded trust. When systemically marginalized users pushed back, Bluesky’s leadership minimized concerns and began to target them for bans.

Great tutorial!

Playing Zombotron catapulted me into Flash game dev 😭

idk man if I had just lost my kid to a school shooting and the news cycle was dominated by people loudly mourning the loss of a guy whose life’s work was radicalizing people, largely children, into thinking that’s a cool and normal thing to do while contributing nothing else, I’d probably go insane

@itch.io is it possible to contribute to the website's codebase at all? Would love to help with some publicly-requested features or even implementing new payment processor options. Cheers!

Love that I spent 15 years developing my software engineering skills so that I can review code and documentation produced by genAI.

New tiny game release: a cozy minesweeper game based on @v3x3d.bsky.social's fantastic asset pack. Built with #godot and playable on the web. cozycrypt.itch.io/minesweeper

Next #godot snippet is here! A utility when using the TileData modulate property (changing color of one tile) and being able to quickly swap colors in editor. I'm planning more additions and put it in a git rep later. Tileset used is mrmotarius.itch.io/moregoblins by @mrmotarius.bsky.social

Published an article explaining multiple ways to wait for #godot tweens to finish before running more code. All the code examples use various C# features like async/await, lambda functions, and callbacks. Hope it helps other people! #csharp #gamedev cozycrypt.dev/blog/godot-c...
