I forget this sometimes, but it's true. Need to be better about remembering it

I’m gripping you all with a cartoonishly large hand. Listen very closely. In media, a character does not need to openly say what they are feeling or what they are, because the director is telling you through the medium of story telling. Lighting, shot composition, music choice, etc, IS your answer

Cried my eyes out at the digital circus finale again What a special show, dude

We're at the stage of the AI grift where major companies like Epic are openly using it... but aren't calling it "generative AI" because they know the majority hates it. They use euphemisms like "emerging technologies" now; be on the lookout for those, and call them out for what it actually is.

Looking for something new to play today? Maybe something with a chill, dreamlike quality?? A demo for Hypnagogia 壊れた夢 Broken Dreams is available to download for free on Steam right now. It's got rat fellas, snowboarding rabbits, cool music, and more. ▼ Steam link below ▼ #screenshotsaturday

Cannot exaggerate how important death is to the beauty of life.

Given all of the recent genAI discussion, I wish to repost this.

Even death cannot save us from the horrors of life anymore.

I cant kill myself yet I need to outlive my enemies

This is what every game developer sounds like right now.

With Sega (my former beloved) now jumping on the AI slop train, I'm seeing people say well everyone usea AI now at least for code! No, they don't. And here are 3 starter packs of game devs who don't use ANY AI The slop is not inevitable go.bsky.app/6DRdowf go.bsky.app/AS5R4p7 go.bsky.app/7K7JDCJ

Giving up. Gonna start using "kill urself" more like the good old 2000's days of online discourse. In other words nothing has changed much.

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

Repost to scare Bluesky developers

It’s really frightening.

Slain Trans UW Student Identified as Juniper Blessing: “The Most Amazing Human Being”

The first 26 years of our lives are a lie and we’re all going to die. Keep smiling.

boycotts work. anyone stating otherwise is spreading state & corp sanctioned propoganda

After waiting years for a new Star Fox, I got impatient and started making my own game. Years later, there's another Star Fox 64 remake and I'm still working on my game

Shadowing dropping the fact that the next Star Fox game is yet ANOTHER remake of the N64 game on a random wednesday is wild. My condolences.

When is it ever going to be enough

“Revisionist history” and it’s just adults able to articulate why they liked a video game as a quieted, dumb child

Despite creating a billion-dollar franchise - with a new $200M budget Hollywood blockbuster launching in a month - the creator of He-Man's family were unable to afford his dementia and care facility costs, and had to setup a GoFundMe. Mattel gave $5,000.

Two of the literal best puzzle experiences in existence right here

You don’t have to like it when people you follow online fail. The problem is, social media offers a very incomplete picture. Not everyone sees the ways we hold ourselves and others accountable offline, and how we’ve changed through the years. Be uncomfortable - but remember that’s still a person.

Depressing: The middle school teacher you thought was a narcissistic asshole was actually right about something all along.

Warehouses on fire, Molotov thrown at Sam Altman’s house, a data center supporting politician’s home shot at — attacks on the ruling class have begun. Every attacker will now be deemed a terrorist, that’s inevitable. But what the ruling class doesn’t want you to know is they made this inevitable.

I got banned from twitter in 2023 for this drawing. They called it "violent speech". It had over 40K likes and too many comments for me to read before my ban, but I still see it floating around here and there. Save a copy, and use it freely. No attribution needed. Love u #transdayofvisibility #tdov

Nuclear codes should be a self-sacrifice deal. If you're willing to sacrifice thousands of lives, then you need to be willing to give up your own, too.

This is Brandy. She practices self-care by dissociating in the bathtub. 13/10 honestly no notes (TT: monkeyshinekennel)

You cant say youre Christian then proudly brag about bringing about a nuclear holocaust and suffering to millions of people.

"Nobody wants to work anymore" says the humble business manager as he AI-generates images of himself instead of paying an artist. I wonder where the problem is? Hmmm

Being introverted (and maybe autistic) and explaining your thought process is like reading aloud a 500-page encyclopedia which you yourself wrote, but never read aloud before. Also you have to do it in a different language. Also you can't make mistakes while reading it or everyone will hate you

Fan of the idea of game devs releasing a game and then being done with it. Esp true for indies; if you do not want to be shackled to a project indefinitely, you should be given the grace to say "This was fun, I'm gonna do something else" and then leaving your game to vibe on the store or whatever.

I think the Half Life 2 VR mod has rekindled my love for VR as a platform

Sarcastic and Ironic So often its the latter that im automatically sus nowadays lol

As a species we can't solve world hunger or convict pedophiles or prevent wars but thank god I can purchase a more expensive version of a thing I already own so the machine learning can make every protagonist a porn star. Couldn't jack off alone in my underwear without it

like i will just start outputting raw sharp pixels 480p if i need to in order to dodge this shit i'm so serious.

the moment DLSS stops being about pixel counts and becomes about injecting lighting and other artistic details that were not intended to begin with is the moment i'm out dude. felt like it was only a matter of time given NVIDIA but it feels truly dire as someone who has otherwise enjoyed DLSS.

Hypothetical experiment where you trap 100 people in a single white-walled room for several generations with nothing but the bare essentials to survive and a picture of a man on the wall to see if they'd eventually worship the man as a deity except the man in the picture is Jerma.

The government is asking for public comments on whether banks should be able to deny you from buying legal goods at their own whim (i.e. how they're cracking down on art) Tell them you don't want to be told how to spend your money www.federalreserve.gov/apps/proposa...

The game that helped me come to terms with my mortality is half off for another day

New pfp Dont know if I’ll ever use the OC again. A new outfit is needed if I do. She has always been an expression of myself and I’d like to represent her (and me) as something more mature. Originally I imagined her as being 21 and I’m even older, so I want to move away from “anime schoolgirl”.
