Tfw you still have some edge cases to fix in your procedural locomotion system #gamedev

I truly can’t handle reading this news about OpenAI’s disregard for public safety on the same day as I saw Sam Altman equate the energy use of AI models with the energy use of humans, reducing humanity to a resource calculation to be managed so he can pursue his AGI god. I’m just so disgusted.

This one hits hard.

I always thought the whole "they want you dead" thing was just hyperbole. But I guess this makes the entire raw milk, no vax, more asbestos stuff make a lot more sense.

Absolutely wild. WSJ reporting that some OpenAI staffers thought the Tumbler Ridge shooter's use of ChatGPT raised the potential of real world violence but leadership decided not to alert RCMP. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

One of my favourite posts I've seen in a while so I felt compelled to share. Why DO they love doing this so much???? lmao (I hope they never stop)

This is maddening. Imagine finding out that you paid for a service that then just automated damage to your reputation without your permission or knowledge. Also I wonder if the support was AI or if it is outsourced to a company that is completely disconnected from anyone who can solve the problem.

once again, we need to get off US tech and platforms as quickly as possible — and governments need to seriously fund the development of alternatives

2026 basically

People talk about this stuff in terms of how much it'll suck for gaming and I hate to inform you how many MRI machines, X-Rays, all sorts of other vital machinery are just a Windows IoT Edition PC in a beige plastic box with a big magnet/accelerator/whatever attached.

The amount of times I sit in a call with a dreamer and their dream game is basically "everything from my favorite six games smashed together into perfect harmony and there was endless flawless content and it has graphics everyone likes" and I have to explain that making feet go on stairs is hard

Read the actual speech itself. Look at how the US thinks of itself.

turns out the discord situation is worse! the company that will be doing the age verifications with IDs is Persona, a peter thiel aligned company we're going to try to wind down the Kill The Computer discord and try to get a subreddit for the podcasts community up and running

We have received numerous credible reports of torture, killing, and inhumane treatment of detained individuals at the Camp East Montana migrant detention facility, located within Fort Bliss. #txlege

“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?” There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.

In the wake of a massive confirmation that the tech industry’s run by deranged pedophiles, not a single tech platform should have the balls to start demanding ID and enacting invasive policies. Yet they continue. They’re the ones being outed as dangerous and we’re the ones being regulated.

CUBA! I mean Cuba!

The United States is purposefully blockading Cuba from accessing fuel that powers everything from grocery stores to hospitals. People will die. Children will die. What's being done to the people of Cuba is monstrous. The people in power were ok with it in Gaza and now they're doing it to Cuba.

Apparently the zombocom domain expired yesterday and was presumably bought out by some other jackass who launched this vibe-coded IMPOSTOR

MiHoYo has confirmed that four former employees of its Genshin Impact development team have been sentenced to prison due to bribery and corruption. Following internal investigations, they were found guilty of abusing their positions for illicit gains. Sentences ranged from six months to over a year.

Over the past two weeks I've begun to realize that rich people only started funding chatbots once they could no longer email Jeffrey Epstein

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

Canada did a consultation on a new national AI strategy, formed an expert task force to write 32 reports, then used AI to analyze the responses & reports. The result is a summary that strings together 100s of vague action items & flattens nuance and policy trade-offs into false consensus

Looks like we have a 7th placebo controlled trial on microdosing psychedelics showing microdosing did not outperform placebo, this time for depression. #psychedelicscience www.linkedin.com/posts/justin...

thought this was a shitpost and oh jesus

A new statement from Epstein survivors: "Once again, survivors are having their names and identifying information exposed, while the men who abused us remain hidden and protected. That is outrageous."

“Post without fear of cancellation” And it’s just this shit

If your game has voice acting, then working with the voice actors is half of your writing process. It's not complete until you've heard it interpreted and reimagined by a voice actor. And they always reimagine it in ways that elevate the writing, in ways you never would have imagined yourself.

Overall: 28% laid off in the last 2 years US: 33% Design/narrative: 20% in the last 12mo (most impacted discipline) 48% said they haven't found a new job, and the survey admits these numbers are likely an undercount. Fun fact: the survey would boot you out if you'd been out of work >2 years.

Just realized I have a longer version of this video. At the start, you can clearly see the feds piling out of the cars to attack Pretti and then spray pepper balls, antagonizing the crowd.

I downloaded the Upscrolled app. Just saw that the official accounts of the founder & even the app itself follow Greyzone "journalists" infamous for war crimes denialism everywhere that isn't Gaza. Hard pass. Another app that tells me African lives don't matter. That's just Meta with a 🇵🇸 flag.

“The idea of a sclerotic Europe facing a supposed American El Dorado, which serves as the foundation for the deregulatory offensive that currently prevails in Brussels, rests on three myths.” Great piece pulling apart the myths designed to make us believe the US is so much better than Western peers

“We attempted deescalation techniques (having six armored officers beat the man senseless, taking away his gun, and pepper spraying him). Unfortunately he was still resisting (alive), so we were forced to escalate (shoot him five times in the back).” “What was his crime?” “Assaulting us”

food is a kind of "superfood"

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.
