Man just fully admitting he doesn't understand how his tech works and trying to sell that as profound.

Everybody be quiet and look at this baby toucan.

Posting an anime we love?

Genuinely, this concern about AI is one of the reasons why I think having friction in video games is good and why it's increasingly important to have games that simply exist instead of catering to our expectations. Reposting this message from Kojima about "pre-digested" art:

let the body keep the score let the body keep the score let the body keep the score let the body keep the SCORRRRREEEE

“The Al is not just telling you what you want to hear. It is training you, one conversation at a time, to need less friction, expect more agreement, and become slightly less capable of handling a situation where someone pushes back on you”

for the love of god and all that is holy don fucking hertzfeldt just uploaded HD Rejected The Internet has come full circle. youtu.be/UU_m_NYXCek?...

this is why I find climate dooming so frustrating there is no point - none - at which throwing up your hands and going “well we’re fucked” is the correct response every tenth of a degree matters and can make a big difference and is worth fighting for

Today I finished an arc in one piece that was as long as the longest anime I've watched. Now I'm onto the side arc between major arcs, which is as long as most entire seasons of other shows. There are 3 such side arcs before the next major arc. Wtf is this damn show, man?! How did this get made?!

Only 1 and 4 are in the same Unreal Century timeline as 6, and are necessary to not get lost without any context. The rest are AUs that are skippable if you just want to get to 6 asap

when you have a question instead of asking chatgpt ask all these fucking sickos here and you'll get real answers

I know, I know, I have some kind of severe ascii fluid sim addiction but I'm trying to build the once-and-for-all version and god damn this shit lookin good.

people can do whatever they want of course, but instead of posting incredibly tepid and uninspired responses to the most regurgitated discourse, you could like repost good art, or post about your dreams, or post some cool ascii art, or like song lyrics you like or like literally anything else

Hey fellow gamedevs, Roguelike Celebration will be holding a Steam event in October, lining up with the conference. If you have a roguelike game (and we are NOT picky about definitions!), go ahead and submit it for inclusion! Link is at www.roguelike.club/event2026.html

As usual this is the energy to carry always and forever:

Was he even loud, or was he just some nobody and y'all kept quote dunking until his message went viral?

Please share this one.

Truly all my narrative design expertise is just me working my way back to wind crystal

A NEW TWIST in Africa's soaring solar story: It's now manufacturing its own panels. The factories use imported Chinese cells, which are 40% of the value of panels, keeping much of the value domestically. 9 GW of cells+wafers in Mar/Apr alone🧵

Truly love that the LA Amber alert system no longer gives you any information. Just a link to X.com with an expectation that you'll have an account with which to view this extremely critical public safety info about someone's missing child.

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life. And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should

bless the maker and his water… bless the coming and going of him.. may his passage cleanse the world, and keep the world for his people

People hate AI. In fact the trend is that more people hate AI over time and it's not slow. The numbers are clear: if you think AI is the future then *you're* the one in the echo chamber www.thealgorithmicbridge.com/p/how-americ...

I'd just like to take this time to really remind everyone that these are the people in charge of all society....

This is getting some interesting replies, and I would like to expand upon this When somebody rejoins with "America was always racist," or "Germany was always antisemitic," or, more generally, "We aren't better than this," what has happened is a complete failure to play a language game

Improv is such a bizarre fast track to self improvement when you work in narrative. What do you mean I have to build an entire world using my own unique voice/perspective and I have to do it once a minute every minute for a 20-minute set?!

solving adhd by realizing everything is interesting and everything is challenging because im an idiot

Tag yourself, I'm Kung Fu!

i often think about this review

what if hell is real, eternal damnation too, but the devil looks like this

Wow I just got the most mind-blowingly cool YouTube suggestion: youtube.com/shorts/oHQVR...

A related piece of advice that I stand by is "fiction isn't real," ie: there's no such thing as a 100% internally consistent fictional universe, nor should there be. If you want to make something that feels real, you make it *feel* real. The world isn't in your notes, it's in the mind of the reader.

Yep. Even just a $375/mo UBI that mostly just replaces the standard deduction would dramatically reduce poverty.

Well that sounds roughly 10,000x more interesting than anything Disney has greenlit in years...

Remember how 100 years ago or so someone showed a moving picture of a train on a flat screen on the side of a big room and people trampled each other in panic trying to escape?

Takeout/delivery and cooking your own food are both wrong. Instead you should be extracting atmospheric dust, nutrients, and moisture using specialized microscopic hairs called trichomes.

Ok so I skipped One Piece after trying it cause the first like 100 episodes are bad, but now that the live action covers those I tried again starting with Alabasta and I think I'm just in this for the long haul now. RIP me.

I think the whole "everything is bad all of the time" is really starting to drag me down, we should make everything good instead, just one man's opinion though

Yes! Bullying works! Keep it up!

The funny thing is that Ravi is only in charge because we boo'd the last guy so hard he retired early. He was also milking the school for profit.

In addition to railing against AI, I also get to rail in favor of learning search query skills

I would love to see a behind-the-scenes of what is happening with tech leadership where obviously-dumbass moves like this can sound in any way reasonable. I just want to see what's moving behind the curtains to set this stuff up cause it just keeps happening and it fails every time.
