If you want to block Cuomo, pease DO NOT leave spaces on your D mayoral primary ballot blank. Fill in ALL FIVE slots with folks who are NOT CUOMO. Mamdani, Lander, Adrienne Adams, Myrie, and Ramos is the @nywfp.bsky.social slate. #RankTheSlate, in whatever order you like! But #NoCuomo!

Put this on billboards

Remember when NFTs were inevitable? The plagiarism bot has more and louder rubes, but it’s just as much a grift, and we don’t have to agree to it.

Ripples learned something new, the dive jump. What do you say? 💦 I wanted to add this for quite some time. Finally 😁! It's another small addition to the myriad of things I added in the last two years. #gamedev #indiegame #wishlistwednesday #cozygame #diver #solodev

Just throwing out there: It's a GOOD thing when NPCs stop talking (or start repeating themselves) after they've finished delivering everything of gameplay or storytelling value You want the player to know that it's time to move on

Simple argument here: if this was happening you'd be able to point to a company that was actually doing it. You'd be able to point to the jobs and the ways in which they'd replaced them with AI and the ceo would talk about it openly. Is that really too much to ask? Yes. The answer is yes

The only viable use cases of AI - even at today's massively subsidized price points - are to scale up scams, grifts, cheating, plagiarism, and carelessness. Which makes sense - 80% of everything is shit, which includes training data. AI is trained on slop, so it makes (lower resolution) slop.

Hey there, friends! I'm looking for some nice freelance work. Let me know if you need some art done for your projects or know someone who does. I work with standard market rates. Let's collab!

it's dangerous to go alone, take this

It is deeply hilarious that the Hudson's Bay Company was founded in 1670 and chugged along for three and a half centuries and Private Equity finished it off in like five years.

Price discrimination should be made illegal.

Zoinks!

Heads up for folks whose preorders didn’t get nuked!

I have to translate this. "Game idea: second person shooter Your girlfriend shoots stuff while you carry the little backpack with ammo and heal items."

It should be a crime higher than treason for an app to mute your music or podcast if it’s not doing anything of equal importance.

happy pride

Time for my yearly obligatory Marceline drawings~

That was LOUD

Problem - youtube is a Virtual Game Card that you need to trade around between consoles

Imagine outsourcing all your thinking to a guy who still only has two Pokémon badges after 80 hours of gameplay.

the em dash has grown in popularity over the last 20 years or so and is thus over represented in the data sets they trained the fraud machine on and now we are supposed to tell people to stop using them because they were finding them useful, it's idiocy all the way down

Dashes are very normal parts of written English and are "AI tells" mostly because they were left off default keyboard configurations and thus are annoying to type in casual writing relative to how often they're used in professional writing.

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!!! #stobotnik

I’m so, so tired of the enshittification of everything. Very few devices need to be smart. Very few designers and developers work for companies that are capable of making them so. Please give up.

pretty sure that barge is only there so that a boss fight can happen later

Someone else said something very similar to this the other day, but. It really burns me that our (millennials') generation was legally terrorized for like, downloading Radiohead discographies But we're supposed to be ok with billionaires stealing human intellectual output in its entirety bc AI

They made the robot do Blackface

Look ma, I'm an environment artist
