My very good friend Tanya was affected by today’s closure of Monolith. If you’re looking for a writer/narrative designer then check them out!

Anyone need a Technical Narrative Designer with experience on the Nemesis System?

LEGO has officially unveiled a massive 3,145-piece T-Rex model that measures over a metre long! Absolutely jawsome! Dinosaur fans are going to want to clear some space for this Tyrant Lizard King skeleton! jaysbrickblog.com/news/lego-76...

Newsletter: There is no AI Revolution. Consumer adoption of generative AI outside of ChatGPT is barely 100 million people, every single company in generative AI is deeply unprofitable, Microsoft is pulling capex, and OpenAI spent $9bn in 2024 to lose $5bn. www.wheresyoured.at/wheres-the-m...

This is incredible. Please watch this 🔥

It is only a matter of time before our home-grown fascists follow this strategy and change anyone describing what they are (and what they do) with defamation. This is why the administration is determined to repeal Times v Sullivan.

I don't get it, man. You make one of the most successful LIVE service titles of the generation, despite the world telling you LIVE service is dead - and still get laid off? What are we even doing at this point

national parks are getting so efficient they can't be used I assume it's the same pattern as everything else: -take away its funding -ruin it / render it unusable -use that as an excuse to sell it to unqualified friends who run it badly at a high price or barter chip in exchange for demanded favors

I got in trouble for calling the world's richest asshole Elon Musk "the world's richest asshole" on Kotaku. I am very pleased to hand my baton to @somemorenews.bsky.social, with their pure and perfect "world's richest Nazi".

2025 will go down as the year when all the subtext became text

B-Wing Cockpit progress - Got most of the main panel installed, started work on the forward dash/platform. Going to add in more details there soon. I'm pretty happy with how it's looking!

SO COOL that Vox Media had two rounds of layoffs in the past three months and keeps cutting our budgets and yet somehow there's $20 million for one person

Bad take. Don't pre-order digital games #gamesky #gamedev

Good to hear - Selaco and its developer are unaffiliated with the anti-woke game awards. Which means that the event was so hard up for sponsors that they ran free ads for games they'd LIKE to sponsor it, just to create the impression that someone would do something so pathetic.

I think it’s really important we identify the companies that are doing the right thing and reward them with our business.

Judging by user reviews, the average Steam user believes that an Early Access game should be fully complete and stable, while complete and stable games should be constantly updating and adding new experimental features. I think something has gone wrong here.

this confirms something i have long suspected, which is that certain people are told that their professional and academic failures are because of “affirmative action” or “DEI” as a way to avoid difficult conversations about their mediocrity www.wsj.com/lifestyle/ca...

I said in my initial post about Adams’ Turkey scandal that he would go full MAGA and start begging for a pardon and of course I was right because it’s easy to see that Adams is a punk bitch with no principles other than helping himself.

I think antitrust is not enough to deal with the tech industry. We need - and I know this era isn't one where we get it - a digital EPA, with quality standards for apps/digital services with personal liability for executives and real, meaningful mechanisms to force companies to stop hurting people.

"You just described a Ponzi scheme." "No. It's an AI business." "Investors are paid with the investment money of new investors to keep the whole thing afloat and the 'product' depends on a flow of stolen goods under copyright that you have no right to redistribute... like, um, this is textbook." 🤨

tech companies have been anti-consumer for years now but never have i seen them commit to the complete rot of AI integrated technology despite the pushback and annoyance of the general public,

everything about this new Meta AI bot is so dystopian but for me the AI-generated images of nonexistent donated coats is up there

I’ve never donated to Wikipedia before but I set up a small monthly donation as a fuck you to the world’s richest psychopath.
