Suraj has a point.

To be clear, I don't think "AI-free code" is achievable, because nobody has to disclose, and Godot can't control it's libraries. That's the one pragmatism-rooted stance I actually agree on with the team. It's more about mitigation and setting an example and not perpetuating a harmful thing.

dead on arrival, but at least the AI peddlers can still have data centers built, and gabe can still buy himself another fleet of yachts

THANK YOU i'm so tired of people, including those involved within the godot development team and foundation, misconstruing the issue and pretending the only problem is vibe coding or that we're asking for the impossible when we are not.

Far too common in this industry is the stance of "balance". There is much acknowledgment of AI's wrongs, but somehow it's always anti-AI folks being asked to compromise. I've come to expect it in general, but it's disappointing seeing it from Godot.

Ça me retourne le bide.

It also baffles my mind. If you cater to grown adults who by your own admission ought to be treated like misbehaving children/dogs, maybe that's not a group of people worth catering to.

disappointing response that focuses on claims of vibe-coding only since it's easier to debunk those, while ignoring the core issue that they're still allowing LLM-driven contributions, just under additional "scrutiny" (which is doing a lot of heavy lifting there, wink wink)

looks like update 1.2.0 of my icon pack for #godotengine @icons will contain a little over 100 additional icons! release planned sometime this week :)

sorry to all my neurodivergent and disabled followers, moots, and friends who are also anti-AI. it turns out that not being dependant on the shitty technology backed by evil trillionaires that's destroying our planet, economy, and cognitive abilities is actually ableist

"we don't let it do everything on our behalf, we scrutinize its output yadda yadda" okay, you're still using it, though. it's like when game studio CEOs claim genAI was "only used on placeholder material". i can only hope to be wrong but i fear the official statement will utilize that same logic.

btw when bringing this up in the past ive had people argue that actually this policy is better because disallowing it will cause people to just not disclose AI usage which i find dumb because a) these dorks are proud of delegating their thoughts to the slop machine, screening for that would be easy

i'm tired boss why does everything gotta turn to shit 🫩

now that i finished updating my website, i can get back on that @icons grind... v1.2.0 coming soon! 👀

It has been 13 months without any resolution or at least proper reply to my CodeOfConduct report for something related to a certain project and it's kind of heavily pissing me off that the involved people seem to have ignored or forgotten about it...

new blog post (yup! it's been a long while)! i've just launched a new version of my website, with a new design, emphasis on my projects, and more! read all about it here!!! ➡️ www.voxy.space/thoughts/wel... (oh, and replies to this post will show up as comments on the article, isn't that neat? :D )

"pourquoi est-ce que le journalisme JV indépendant galère autant ?"

devs using ai for their games is so funny because theyre not even strong in their convictions they're the most pathetic whimpering losers begging you not to be mad at them for using Theft Machine For Idiots 2000

the power of science is incredible

"So, if I use ChatGPT you think less of me?" Yep. Hope this helps.

let's fucking go, based

after seeing some blogs using bluesky to handle comments, i decided to give it a try on the new version of my site it's actually way easier than i thought? literally just yoinked some code from this: capscollective.com/blog/bluesky... and it works like a charm, that's so cool excited to launch it

the reason I have such a distaste of AI is precisely *because* it's useful that is, if you would like to save time and money, to make hollow creations deprived of humanity, and you're morally okay polluting the world with creatively uninspiring husks to hurt the artists whose work trained your toy

open source modding platform getting acquired by that one company who made a mod dedicated to shoving microtransaction slop into minecraft java edition what could possibly go wrong?

Mourn for the individuals losing their jobs, of course, but do not mourn for the fate of Xbox. They fell to their own hubris, a venture founded on nationalistic pride.

who could've possibly guessed that the deadly combo of 80s nostaslop + jared leto was gonna bomb

hahaha so i decided to look into other static site generators again, apparently eleventy got acquired by font awesome and is going to be renamed "build awesome", and instead of just rebranding the website, they instead fill 50% of the page with oversized crap grrrrreat. 🫠

the "git gud" mentality truly sucks and it's probably one of the reasons it took until last year for gimp to get basic, bog-standard features like non-destructive filters, support for color spaces, and *the ability to select and transform/move multiple layers at once*(?!)

A problem with some open source people is that many can’t parse the difference between being technically able to do something in software and good software that can replace commercial software and if you want to kill Windows you absolutely need the latter. And we absolutely need to kill Windows.

if you tell a Linux Guy that you think UI matters to most people they'll try to kill you

"We're shipping so much more code with AI!" "Good, stable code?" "Oh heavens no. No no no. not at all. We couldn't possibly"

i'm sobbing why did they give pomni digital circus the pixar mom build for this 😭😭😭

Today marks the 5th anniversary of the release of Game Builder Garage! 🥳🎉✨

I've been on a huge hyperfixation with PiCPAC lately, so i pulled myself together and made some artwork, enjoy #ROBOTBANDPICPAC #PICPAC

Gros soutiens aux copains de la @pepperpotteam.bsky.social qui l'ont mauvaise. Et surtout dans cette vidéo Pauline dit un truc pertinent : tout ce cirque depuis ces dernières années est lié à la casse du service public anglais et au dé-financement de la BBC.

so russell t. davies reset the season, had ncuti gatwa's doctor regenerate into billie piper ahead of a 2026 christmas special... ...only to leave after two (2) seasons, saying that actually he never wrote a script for said special and that "no one was approached to play the next doctor"? 🥴

Pro-Palestine marches will openly be called "hate marches" in the press, but these arsonist pogroms, illustrated by a burned-out bus, are simply "disorder"

THERE IS AN ACTIVE POGROM IN NORTHERN IRELAND. FASCISTS IN SKULL MASKS ARE GOING DOOR TO DOOR PULLING MIGRANTS OUT OF THEIR HOMES AND SETTING THEM ON FIRE.

are you fucking stupid me:

As someone who used to work on licensed comics (Rugrats, Cartoon Network etc) it absolutely blows my mind that stuff like this is going out on official products. We'd get dragged over the coals if a spot colour was one Pantone reference out. Now? Sure, Donald has seven fingers. Why not?

one of my games is in target. wacky!

watching the nintendo direct and FOOLISHLY expecting a NSO playtest program full reveal

no no you don’t understand, we only used AI for the part of the production pipeline where we didn’t want to pay employees, it’s different

I'm going to be joining the wonderful @voxy.space and @mustardoligarch.bsky.social to react LIVE to the upcoming Nintendo Direct! In anticipation, I've laid out my upmost hopes and dreams in the form of a digital bingo card... Stream link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=GyDD...

between this, the industry pumping out games with "placeholder" AI assets while laying off half their workforce, and consumer gaming hardware becoming unaffordable thanks to stupid ai assholes and their horde of polluting data centers... yeah i wonder if it's still worth learning gamedev tbh

did it some more :3 i will say, animating SVGs in CSS is a big pain in the ass, but seeing this makes me really happy so it's gotta be worth it

woaw,,, cool shirt, bunny happy pride month everybody 🥰
