Sure. AI companies have ALWAYS been training their models on Wikipedia content, which under the free and open access model is available to anyone — including AI companies. Agreements like these require AI companies to limit and offset the strain they place on Wikimedia infrastructure.

Every example of ai being useful begins with "okay imagine you're in a situation, and you are very dumb"

For those wondering what Mamdani's quote, "For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty," was in reference to...

As the year draws to a close, we wanted to wish you a happy and restful holiday season, and thank you for supporting Hades II and our team!🙏🌖 This festive moment in the Crossroads brought to you by our environment artist Joanne Tran.

This is my cyclical reminder that there's really only one consistently reliable source of info in the public record that isn't owned by right wing billionaires, who really want to put an end to it. Please give at least the $2.75 minimum they request if you can. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

it's all bad but it's disgusting to imply that using genAI for concept art is comparable to placeholder text

My fellow Europeans, I'm once again asking you to write or call your EU representatives and tell them this is unacceptable. They're essentially selling our sensitive data to companies, effectively destroying our privacy and risking our digital well-being. Check the site! fightchatcontrol.eu

Capitalism is incredible. Sorry, former teacher, your retirement fund is gone because 5 guys who've collectively never worked a full hour told the banks to put all the money in the country into virtual girlfriend futures

In the Shadow of Atlas is another single-deck game by John Clowdus, and it finds him in familiar territory: the lane-battler. This is a smart and self-contained game that recalls some of Clowdus's earliest experiments. My review: spacebiff.com/2025/11/05/i...

Os he ocultado información, he recortado un pequeño trozo del mensaje original. Y es que esta campaña para concienciarte de como estás malgastando agua, luz y cogiendo el coche para todo se ha generado enteramente por IA

Atentos a esto porque creo que nada define mejor La Era del Bochorno en la que vivimos. Acciona lanza una campaña para concienciar sobre el derroche de recursos. El culpable eres tú. Tú ducha ha durado diez minutos y te has dejado la luz encendida. ya sabes cómo va, tú eres el culpable.

"why are games so expensive" "why are mass layoffs happening" "why are games getting cancelled" "why did that popular studio close" it's capitalism. capitalism is why all of this is happening. the rampant prioritizing of profit over the all else, from price and quality to dev health and well being.

Queremos más sueldo, no trabajar más horas, pedazo de fascista.

Disney adults canceling subscriptions, vacations, etc really are making the Harry Potter adults that threw a fit over a $60 video game look like huge bitches

The Aurora Plastics Corporation, later Aurora Products, was known for their slot cars and licensed model kits. But the publication of a board game would change everything. youtu.be/TH3QT05C25w

The official trailer for Nia DaCosta’s ‘28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE’ has been released. In theaters January 16, 2026.

@docdraws.itch.io hi! I've recently got a copy of Akigara and had a couple of questions about it, what's the best place to ask them? I sent you a message through Reddit a few days ago but I don't know how much you check it.

Comenta la gente que esto es por desinformación de medios y sí, pero también es porque esta cacho de mierda se lo quiere creer. Le apetece, le gusta. De ahí que no haya que pasarles ya ni una a esta gentuza.

I wrote about 28 Years Later

Reviewers including No Pun Included and Shut Up & Sit Down are boycotting Codenames publisher CGE for releasing a new Harry Potter-themed game while ignoring JK Rowling’s anti-trans rhetoric: boardgamewire.com/index.php/20...

Our lids were sealed; but like the Duchess, we promised we'd come clean! Coming this fall;; BELINDA'S BIG BONUS - a BELINDA BLINKED game - is the first board game based on the books by @flintstonerocky.bsky.social enjoyed by "Belinkers" around the globe. 🧵for details 🧵

I guess CGE can block me too Making a Harry Potter game in 2025 without acknowledging the harm of transphobia at a bare minimum is a political statement Intent doesn’t matter

So, @codenamesgame.bsky.social asked for civility. The most civil & kind thing I can say is that you must be incredibly thin-skinned and cruel to respond to the anger and pain of the marginalized by plugging up your ears.

So Codenames (and thus CGE) has blocked me, a Trans developer and designer, because I had the nerves to send them the two replies you find below. Judge for yourself if these are worth a ban. This is their way of dealing with empathy and care in this ongoing conversation.

'As this is an ongoing discussion' Bitch please, you turned off comments on the Instagram and Facebook post you cowards. Just say "We're trying to protect our cash cow" and be done with it. Embarrassing. Also, remember the creators who cover this or give it any oxygen at all.

And the reality is - they don't have to care. This won't matter in the end (to them). So what if they lost some customers because people are upset on bluesky? It will blow over and codenames will keep selling. Has Terraforming Mars been hurt by the openly transphobic/xenophobic owners? No!

the fact that so many people *still* use Tabletop Simulator after they (checks notes) tried to ban LGBTQ+ chat as "sexual" and "not family friendly", transparently lied about the trans person who brought attention to it, then promised changes they absolutely didn't follow through on is damning

Omg they’re removing all the quotes ahahhhahah post is still up tho lmao

It's a deliberate decision, in a hobby that's founded on the idea that people should come together in a shared space, to craft a board game that says to the most vulnerable among us, "No, you don't belong here."

Wow a Harry Potter theme in 2025 sure is a choice

In a move shocking no one, a studio CEO who flirts with fascist slogans and mocks other people's games is dogshit at running a studio successfully.

I found @shelfstablecast.bsky.social thanks to @tombrewster.bsky.social 's colab and been enjoying it a lot. They love Mottainai, watch NL, and now on their last episode mention Car Seat Headrest. They do be the coolest.

This #Spiderman2099 painting I finished last year will be a part of the Gallery Nucleus Marvel exhibition, opening tomorrow

I was asked about an option to just donate a bit without having to pay any fees so all the money gets straight to Lucky, so I have additionally set up a gofundme campaign. Thank you everyone who already shared this post! 🙏🖤 gofund.me/8753182d

I use placeholders in my writing all the time. But in my case, it's a giant bold "PLZZZZZHOLDER," which is glaringly obvious that it needs to be replaced, without using the world-collapsing plagiarism machine in the interim.

The bloat, the sheer size of it. The new graphic design. The AI art. I rarely speak up about other creators but what a senseless waste of an amazing legacy.

I will continue with mine because I love seeing people's choices. It was hard to narrow down and probably tomorrow some of them would change but all in all I'm pretty happy with the list. topsters.org to make yours.

there's a best movies of the 21st century meme so here's mine (without clicking the fascist new york times) topsters.org to make yours

By random chance I decided to put an order to Second Chance Games 2 days before the @shutupshow.bsky.social video dropped. I count myself lucky. Also I am really really excited for Eyelet, I think I was lucky to get the last copy. Great stuff from @hollandspiele.bsky.social and @amabel.bsky.social.

she's great, and just a straightforward unflinching response that our commentators are going to be so fucking normal about tomorrow

It’s always nice when someone is talentless but you get to go “they’re talentless, but that’s not the only reason they suck”

Boycotting Target is both expensive and inconvenient for us, but shit like this just drives home why it's still important to do it.

1) You can’t make a bigot money and still call yourself and ally. 2) The fact that WB is cranking out these “this actor is cool! Separate the art from the artist” weekly PR pieces means that Rowling funding the assault on trans rights is hurting their bottom line.
