Obviously, this is amazing BUT the thing I love most, is that it's directly poking fun at the desire/fetish to overanimate overlapping action & smears. Asking someone of James Baxter's calibre to *intentionally* do this (as well as mess up the spacing on a bounce) is funny in the nerdiest way.

Happy holidays! Pigeons make milk, and I hope this fact fills you with joy and concern during this festive time of year

love that software developers are advertising AI functionality in every single app now and it's up to you to try to figure out if they mean "this has spellcheck" or "everything you create in this app will sync in real-time to sam altman's personal laptop" or something in between

The fact that no one realized this would be a giant hit is both hilarious and frustrating to me. If anyone had paid attention to fanfiction in the last 20 years, you could have seen this coming. But fanfiction has girl cooties, so I guess not

If you stopped wearing masks, you can start again anytime! At *least* while you’re traveling! Don’t ruin your holidays with covid or flu.

i had to drop what i was doing to make this

Overboard! ($7.49) - good god, there's been a MURDER! ...no mystery to it, though. why? cuz YOU'RE the one who did it! do whatever it takes to evade suspicion till this cruise ship docks and you get away with the perfect crime! huge replay value, tons of fun! store.steampowered.com/app/1546920/...

Zombie Dinos from Planet Zeltoid ($2.79) - perhaps one of the pinnacles of the era of "multimedia edutainment CD-ROM games that talked somebody into dropping a chunky budget". features cam clarke VA! "so is it good? fun?" why would that matter. irrelevant. store.steampowered.com/app/1749720/...

Starship Titanic ($0.89) - in 1998, Douglas Adams (Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy) returned to games to make a sci-fi comedy adventure with one of the most robust text parsers you've ever seen. toy with it, type whatever comes to mind, see what happens. store.steampowered.com/app/467290/S...

cyberpunk dystopia is here, there's colored LEDs all over and I eat too much cup noodle they keep putting bigger pictures of the dictator's face on things but at least on the Nets we still talk freely sometimes your robot girlfriend is secretly a real person nothing's been right since the plague

If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans. youtu.be/cUrJVdF2me0?...

In general, AI adoption levels are a measurement of to what extent a particular reward system (a corporation, a market, academia as a whole system) has ceased to distinguish between doing a thing and pretending to do a thing

A blessing right in my area. Thank you, Rick!

Only day you can resky this

Jake Paul literally just reenacted the plot of this song

I still think this is the set up for an incredible RPG

This reminds me of the story my parents had of when they were young and they wanted to breed finches, so my mom went to get a pair and came back with two pretty ones saying “they had these little ugly ones, I don’t know why anyone would want those” and my dad was like “those… were the females…”

I tried a MS Paint Randomizer with friends today, it was a lot of fun! Goal of the Rando is getting an image as close to an image as possible, each % releases a check, with the final goal being 80%. Rando devs are wild and I love them for it.

you already know what's up (steam sale rec thread is what's up) as always, i focus primarily on older, obscure, and just plain weird games, as big name titles don't need the help. so, onwards!

This studio awards-season email is really matching the current mood in a way I’m not sure they intended.

My proposal is to add an infix tetration operator `***` to JavaScript. For example, `3 *** 3` would evaluate to `7625597484987`; this would be one of about five possible meaningful results the operator was capable of producing (maybe ten if we allow BigInts)
