This, by the way, is precisely why you shouldn't uncritically celebrate, buy, and invest time and money into games that unapologetically use genAI. www.eurogamer.net/nexon-embark...

One of my favourite things I've ever written is a hands-on preview of I Am Jesus Christ back in 2022. The final game launched today, and imagine my disappointment to discover it contains AI voice "acting". Oh well, one less thing to try pitching.

Okay, here we are. It's not a review, more a eulogy for Max and Chloe's story. I hope you find time to read, and get something out of it. medium.com/@jimcrikey/l...

Irony alert: they used AI during development.

Oscar's a little more down on this than I am (the reason for which will become apparent in the blog post I'll write which three people will read), but I agree with almost everything he says here. It's a great explanation of what ended up going wrong.

What's that? You thought Labour had run out of ways to be ghoulish, hateful, and fascistic? Think again.

Librarians are the unsung heroes of our communities. Libraries are homes of compassion and magic, and keepers of the world’s knowledge. Visit a library and see what wonders they have to offer that were unknown to you.

Just finished Life is Strange: Reunion, and feeling rather smug that I correctly identified both [REDACTED] and [REDACTED]. And nobody died! Well, one person I didn't really care about, that doesn't count. You better believe I'll be writing something about this. I hope you find time to read it.

right winger getting cancelled vs. trans person getting cancelled

It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you. If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can. Everyone give this a share after.

Good reminder to block Bluesky's AI account if you haven't already. Thanks!

🚨Abood is in danger⛔️ My brother is a disabled boy with special needs & autism. His leg is broken & he needs surgery to have a metal plate inserted. Abood cries & can't sleep because of the pain, & he has a high fever. We urgently need €250. Any donation will be a lifeline😭 chuffed.org/project/158030

This is what you do with fame.

Lemme boost this for you, hopefully someone who can make that happen for you will see it 🤞🏽

An aim for this year was to put my second book from 2024 back in the spotlight. Below is how I'll be doing it:

I've had my eye on this for a while, and couldn't resist!

Does it work properly? No. Are the people making it acting in good faith? No. Have they ensured it can't be used maliciously? No. Does it make people's lives better? No. Will it make people's lives better? No. Is it profitable? No. Is it popular? No. Is it harmless? No. The argument for AI.

Tim Sweeney is worth $5B.

Sam's just milkshake ducked herself.

Why do developers always have motion blur switched on by default? Only the most depraved monsters like it.

Longtime college friend of mine, Mike Prinke, was among those laid off at Epic Games: he has been fighting terminal brain cancer, and now he, his wife, and kid, have no income or health insurance. Sharing here in hopes it can reach the right people on their behalf. #epicgames

I called one of my custom weapons Stug Prime for a joke, and... and... they're actually doing it.

Neat touch in Life is Strange: Reunion that my son picked up on: when Max and Chloe meet for the first time, if you chose that Chloe died, the song that plays is from her death sequence. If you chose that she lived, it's the song that played when they danced together in Chloe's bedroom.

I hate this time of year, when companies take turns gleefully telling you how much more you'll be paying for luxuries like clean water, shelter, and food. I know communism never works out in practice but could we give it a go for a little while anyway?

Ezra Klein: I'm Ezra Klein, and today I'm joined by one of the foremost intellectual theorists of Trumpism. He is an associate editor at the Rancho Cucamonga Review of Ideas and a fellow at the Schlafly Institute of Punitive Economics. [a baked potato in a top hat]: Thanks for having me, Ezra.

The price of everything is going up, writing work is very thin on the ground, but I'm still not desperate enough to accept the offer of writing for Valnet that I've received.

I will quite honestly say that this game contains one of the best sequences confronting death and grief that I have ever seen.

Videogames have always been an expensive hobby, but it's no exaggeration to say that we're on the verge of modern games and the hardware they run on being attainable only by the middle classes in the majority of countries.

That's great; now if they could patch in a few of the QOL improvements *into Returnal itself*, I might actually finish the game. www.eurogamer.net/saros-made-e...

Instead of continuing to debate the morality of engaging with books written by a particularly evil TERF…check out this starter pack and financially support these trans artists! 🏳️‍⚧️ go.bsky.app/5NHKfmC

You need to remember the damage of bans like this isn't just the overt bigotry of the act itself, but a sustained effort to create a tapestry of lies/laws/myths all working together to paint the image that a trans person excelling or even just existing healthily in society is somehow unnatural.

It's very cool having a son who's as into Life is Strange as I am, but that also means that I can't play Reunion in front of him giving him spoilers, severely limiting when I can play it. It's sitting on my hard drive mocking me. :(

Permanent upgrades! Teleportation nodes after boss fights! Unlike Returnal, Saros acknowledges the fact that human lives consist of more than playing videogames.

after much deliberation and giving AI the benefit of the doubt, Wikipedia editors have had enough of AI slop. New policy bans LLM generated content, periodt www.404media.co/wikipedia-ba...

I honestly can't think of a more reactive and community-focused developer than Digital Extremes.

Tomodachi Life has no filter in it btw

I made a papercraft just for this

Seven runs of the new Warframe mode got me 3 of the 4 blueprints for Follie, and enough currency to buy the last one. That's pretty lucky, especially as I'm not in a hurry to go back (I think I'll buy the new rifle with some of the platinum hoard I'm sleeping on).

Just got back from watching an open mic and, although all the acts were musicians, I'm decided: I'm definitely going back next month to perform myself, giving standup a go. Please pray to the god of your choice that the five minutes I pull together is at least half decent.

We're giving away not one, but TWO Nintendo Switch 2 consoles! Make sure you enter the giveaway before Friday, April 3 at 11 a.m. ET. Learn more: https://wrfr.me/4bGYrko

Aliens: The Video Games is now available to pre-order directly from the publisher at the introductory special offer price of £20.99. Tell all your pals. www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/Aliens-The-V...

[guy who invented the toaster] I sure wish three quarters of this slice of bread was crispy.

Channel hopping, I put on The Birdcage partway through. I've had to turn it off so I can go to bed, and it's the hardest thing I've done all week tbh.

I've stumbled onto the fact that if you have an LG TV (and if so, you're cool like me), you can stream all three seasons of Ash Vs Evil Dead for free. It's the Italian encoded version for some reason, and there's an ad break every 10 minutes, but hey - it's free (and enormous fun).
