Literally there are conversion therapy manuals that start with isolating your child from all potential sources of safeguarding and supportive information and cutting them off from unmonitored internet access so they can find the number for ChildLine while you're not watching is right up there.

Lmao

"ai can't write good stories, but it's useful for concept art" "ai slop can't replace real artists, but it's fine for programming" "ai can't write maintainable code, but it's good for translations" everyone assumes their own field cannot be replaced by ai, but fields they understand less can be

I realized the first image had a few mistakes so here is a new version.

I didn't know this, maybe you don't either: Google can nuke your drive, docs, email, etc, under the excuse of "distributing pornographic content" if they think your writings in Docs or your uploads in Drive are too sexy lol bad world. ToSes are outta control www.reddit.com/r/eroticauth...

One of RPG maker's largest communities will be losing their forum in the next 6 months, along with it hundreds of tutorials, help threads, and resources and they need help archiving! Help spread the word and if you are able see if you can't join in the help! old.reddit.com/r/DataHoarde...

Look I know it’s a bit of human instinct going on but anytime I see another viral clip of StarGiant, Diaz Station, or some other criminal with bad media opinions I just have to ask why anyone seems surprised that they’ll say something horrible?

I’m about to hit the 50 hour mark in my playthrough of SMT5 and I can confidently state it’s the best game I’ve played this year. Mind you, that list is rather short, but it’s true all the same.

Reporting on Elon Musk becoming a trillionaire should be done with the same general tone as a lethal virus escaping containment, not as an awesome achievement.

The tricky part is that these are all the same person using alt accounts that all follow each other for some reason.

Final Fantasy XVI, Kingdom Come: Deliverance, & Blades of Fire will be on the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog this month: https://www.rpgsite.net/news/20658-playstation-plus-june-monthly-catalog-games-free-ff16-kingdom-come-deliverance-blades-of-fire

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"

Sorry, maybe I shouldn't say this but ahahah. I am very angry. So I went to Xbox's Fan Fest event to attend a preview event. And it was the most flagrant display of wealth imaginable. Five stories filled with caterers and hundreds of smiling faces there to assure me of the brand's strength.

Posting this classic from the old place before the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct in April, and all future ones of course.

the xenoblade 1 upgrade could be literally nothing but voiced heart to hearts and it'd still be worth the $10

Monolith Soft doesn't have BlueSky so sharing what we know from the Twitter account - Tetsuya Takahashi returns as general director for Genesis - new lead artists is a collab work of Mai Yoneyama and PALOW - Yasunori Mitsuda once more is composing for the OST with Mariam Abounnasr and Aimi Kiyota

I am begging some of you to not rely on machine translation even for passing curiosity just because you think "well it may not be totally accurate but it probably at least gives you the basic gist, ya know". See: Twitter's LLM hallucinating the idea of Xenoblade 4 being composed by Yoko Shimomura

I would never tell my friends that even buying JP eshop credit is significantly cheaper than buying the US version

that nintendo direct:

AFTER ALL OF THESE YEARS‼️ Shulk’s iconic “Check out this massive plant” is voice acted!!! I’m so happy omg 😭 #Xenoblade

Nintendo dropping Zelda remake after my son came home from the war

First look at White Ganon in The Legend of Zelda movie

The ultimate Nomura gag is that the trailer for Kingdom Hearts 4 shown during the Nintendo Direct is different from the one published independently by Square Enix and appears to be a more polished build, so we really have no fucking clue how close KH4 is to release

I will never complain about anything ever again.

Every time Steam AI disclosures come up, I think of The Alters. A game where the studio was found to have used generative AI in a player facing way, then admitted it was intentional. There is still no disclosure on the Steam page. No consequences. They exist just to protect Valve from liability.

Kinda accidentally stayed offline for most of the day but yes, I have indeed seen the Persona and Spyro trailers. Me happy

headline is the biggest fucking lie

I really need to play those FF7 remakes soon…

said it before, but while it’s great the works are interrogated at a higher standard now, John Hughes movies & Buffy *were* remarkably novel for the respect & agency they gave women & the vulnerability shown in young men. & Anthony Head’s own behavior is a big reason Giles “holds up” well. RIP.

It brings me great joy that the "most recommended" walkthrough for Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga on GameFAQs is like this

Zelda games are better when they play more like elaborate puzzle games with occasional sword combat. Freeform exploration was always the most overstated and least interesting aspect of pre-OoT Zelda and the increased emphasis on those elements has diluted the series’ identity.

Less “The Divine Comedy” and more “The 120 Days of Sodom.”

This bill is legitimately the thing we've been waiting for. Forcing AI to reveal it's sources would cripple it, because it literally can't comply with the law, because all of it is stolen- they didn't record it Please sign to hasten the bubble popping

Saw this on FB. If you’ve ever enjoyed Aqua Teen, please help if you can. Someone who’s such an integral part of one of Adult Swim’s most beloved shows deserves much better than this.

Wolverine looks sick.

The money was always there for the good things.

It’s been too long since I played an SMT game, so let’s fix that. I’ve put off SMT5 for too long. Diving into the PS5 version next.

it's that time of year again

PSA: Bluesky's new auto-tagging moderation stuff is a disaster. Disable it. Go into Settings on the Bluesky site and enable adult content and set everything to Warn at most, which makes posts opt-in. Hide just vanishes posts. Then go into Advanced/Bluesky Mod Service and do the same on everything.

People have talked the argument "everyone uses it" into the ground because yeah. No, not "everyone" uses it. The thing is, though, the general public doesn't know the difference between LLM and genAI and proprietary tools that many companies developed and implemented into their workflow years ago.
