"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

There are no words for how evil this is

good ass game alert

If you're wondering how this will go Square Enix handed off their mobile Octopath game to NetEase who immediately started using ChatGPT to translate everything resulting in text like this. When players complained they started asking fans to fix their translations in exchange for in-game currency

The FBI is trying to unmask the owner of infamous archiving site Archive.is, according to a subpoena the site posted. No other information given, the site quietly posted the document a few days ago. FBI telling domain registrar to hand over all sorts of ID'ing info www.404media.co/fbi-tries-to...

The Sega Saturn had everything. It even had a game for people who like old ladies a bit too much

This must go so hard if you're a fucking idiot

Bluesky's semi-hidden "Sexually suggestive (cartoon)" moderation mode is one of their most embarrassing design decisions. I bet there's SO many users who think they turned on visible nudity but accidentally have on a setting that treats Jessica Rabbit as UNACCEPTABLE where dick on main is ACCEPTABLE

good morning specifically to the FBI agent who introduced Mamdani’s dad to Marx

The real lesson is to put an actual hard number on income categories instead of shit like "the top 10%." People ALWAYS massively overestimate what percentile they're in, but a hard number for comparison lets them say oh yeah, fuck the rich, I ain't ever gonna see that number in my life.

Just saw a youtube video call Magic Pengel a "Pokemon clone" and immediately told youtube to never recommend that channel ever again

Kinu Nishimura and Tsukasa Kotobuki say that some clients no longer simply give verbal instructions or a rough sketch when ordering an illustration, but now provide an AI-generated image, which stifles artists' creativity by limiting their scope for interpretation. xcancel.com/nishi_katsu/...

Oh, Dick Cheney died? Well-- *sees Bluesky mod around corner* What's really important is championing the open protocol.

Beat em ups, character action games, musou, fighting games, shmups, all these (largely japanese-developer-led) genres that largely dont receive major published reviews from people who at least *know* their histories or are willing to engage with them in good faith

You never see someone with this type of attitude get assigned to review a Call of Duty game even though it would be entirely warranted; it’s always a Japanese game and usually some kind of beat em up that receives this kind of blanket dismissal lol

fujimoto absolutely did this on purpose right

Finished Dragon Quest I HD-2D and I am pretty positive that I will never touch that version ever again in my life. They fucked up that game. I hear that they really got DQ II right, on the other hand.

Time for me to make the Only valid complaint about Dragon Quest localization I don’t care about Loto->Erdrick, but it’s supposed to be King Lorik Princess Laura/Lora and the kingdom she founds after leaving Tantegel should be Lorasia Gwaelin and Midenhall were/are mistakes

I decided my work costume was “counselor at Camp Crystal Lake” and if they told me I had to take it off because it was violent or whatever then I’d be “counselor at Camp Crystal Lake before they got attacked”
