i love reading discourse on ttrpg design or the state of the industry, because it’s basically people in a parlor having a nuanced discussion while I’m outside making gorilla noises and whacking things with a hammer

this week indie studio santa ragione announced that it's on the verge of closure after steam blocked the release of its upcoming provocative art game, horses. valve, despite all of its algorithms and purposefully vague policyspeak, is once again telling us exactly where it stands

To be clear Lizza’s story is that Nuzzi sat on important matters of national significance for personal benefit and he’s sat on these details until he could personally benefit. All of DC media needs to be thrown into the sea. Anyone who defends these people is a goddamn clown.

Because people are treating it like a juicy spectacle and not like a significant failure of journalism and a condemnation of the industry.

of the Devil episode 2 tomorrow!!!

tiny small reminder minecraft and wow are still on the bds boycott list and ea is owned by the pif now but i’m tired of fighting and i’m not attacking anyone i just want people to remember these things

Hey, congratulations to all of Olivia Nuzzi’s horny media critic defenders. Heckuva job!

Absolute Batman #14 Review:

This stupendous achievement will go up online with zero fanfare but I have to read 15 articles a week about how some chud thinks he reinvented hieroglyphics via conversation with ChatGPT

"...as households' perceived probability of attaining homeownership falls, they systematically shift their behavior: they consume more relative to their wealth, reduce work effort, and take on riskier investments." This new paper seems very pertinent papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Today’s xkcd made me cry. In a good way. xkcd.com/3172/

I remember Stephen Colbert referring to the experience of watching live-action Speed Racer as being like being put into a dryer drum with a bunch of ignited fireworks, and this is like that for people who play video games imo

Thinking a lot about how when Schreier's exposé on R* working conditions came out, several mid-level devs I used to respect came out with very defensive "well *I've* never worked 90 hour weeks" as though it negated the fact that many contract and QA devs demonstrably were.

Snitching to corporate and getting 30 people fired is not mandatory — rats have to make that choice for themselves.

oh fun they got a new composer for the new of the devil EP, i wonder where her other projects ar---- what do you mean they got the composer of Celeste

This is why I think spending time on slick production for a video podcast is a giant waste. The main benefit to a video podcast is it lives on YouTube and a decent number of people like to ingest things that way. They push play and tab away from it immediately. I could be nude, no one would know.

Got a job for you 621

licensors/distributors, there has never been a better time to put a 4K scan of Adolescence of Utena in theaters. I am an unbiased professional industry commentator and critic. you can trust me.

FYI: turning off "Smart features" also turns off spell check and the promotions and social tabs. And more. In effect, a lot of traditional tools in gmail are switched off if you don't let them upload your contracts, love notes, and sad messages to your friends into their plagiarism machine.

good to know!

playing any tales game and encountering the adult party member when im in my teens: oh my god... hes 35... hes so old when im in my twenties: 35 is really not that old. when im in my thirties: no one has ever lived to be older than 33. he is so ancient and venerable

pspsps does anyone have a contact at Fangamer? If so, can you message me here or on discord (also @radioinactivity)

waymo ceo: we plan for fatal crashes and society will learn to accept them roblox ceo: kids must be preyed upon and victimized as a necessary consequence of scale WHATEVER HAPPENED TO HEADS ON PIKES

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO

it brings me great joy to see Microsoft pissing away the franchise they paid so much money to own

This interview is a snapshot into where tech companies are with online harassment right now. They know how to end it, but they decided not to spend the money. They’re prioritizing growth (and profit) above all else. And they’re blaming YOU for logging on to the platform they designed to be unsafe.

In PR, we call this “bridging,” part of exec speaker training. When media ask a question you don’t want to/can’t/are afraid to answer, you acknowledge the question and change direction to the topic you want to/are allowed to/are comfortable answering. This is also an example of terrible bridging

re: roblox dude's interview crashout. the thing he wants to say but can't is "at scale, kids are gonna get hurt. that is the price for scale." the thing nobody wants to say out loud is "maybe scaling to a level where harm isn't manageable is bad, and scale should be contained"

so there's this guy #talesoftheabyss

A reminder that I’ve archived every public-facing web page from the CDC website prior to the Trump Regime purging data back in late January: acasignups.net/cdc-website

These are likely system-destroying increases. I don’t think that’s being given enough column space.

THEY'RE NO LONGER USING PS2 DEV KITS?!?!?!??!?!!?!?!? www.thegamer.com/final-fantas...

INTO BATTLE #Deltarune

C-Suite using ChatGPT to ask how can they alienate their workers from their labour becoming admissible evidence in court is literally the top tier acceptable use case of this tech

Whomst among us hasn't felt a little vacuum about snackie all done

Expedition 33 will win GOTY, the devs will make a speech about how they love and were inspired by JRPGs and how people should give those games a chance and the next day the press will be like "Expedition 33 wins GOTY and proves the west has STOMPED JAPAN IN THEIR OWN GENRE"

hey remember when i made art that was cool #artradio
