hard to believe that our public institutions are suddenly behaving in a manner that many many people have been warning is the logical endpoint of a capitalist government for a hundred years

Gaza’s war ended after 480 days, but the real battle began afterward, centered on the struggle for survival and securing the bare minimum of life’s necessities amid soaring prices, a collapsed healthcare system, and the absence of income sources. gofund.me/86908382

HOLY COW! Stars Reach hit its funding target in less than one hour, and is currently the #2 product globally on Kickstarter. I cannot express how grateful we are here. We will start unlocking stretch goals and more Early Birds (they went FAST)! www.kickstarter.com/projects/sta...

This is great for PS Plus subscribers and a mess for the bad-faith shitstorm around this game, including the fact that I'd be pretty bummed if I paid full price and it effectively became free less than six months later to try and plug holes in EA's quarterly earnings sheet.

When I was a kid I thought Chucky from Child's Play was named Sharkey and I think that would give the franchise a different feel.

me being in animation & ryan being in games means the looming specter of layoffs is just forever omnipresent in our household. i think we’ve had like. maybe 4 months out of 3+ years of marriage where we were both working at the same time

i know people are laughing at this but it's really not funny to me. they're basically doing The Eternal Jew level propaganda against trans women at this point.

Not sure about you guys but starting to think I don’t love living through the complete deindustrialization of the entertainment sector.

I get really irked when I see people post “indies will save us” or “the laid off devs should go indie” THERE IS NO MONEY publishers are cancelling contracts, angel investors/venture capital don’t want small returns. I think they mean hobbyists with a day job working doubletime & that is a rough ask

The critical thing to understand is that it is absolutely commercial viable and profitable to fund mid-sized studios making reasonably budgeted games that grow in profit year over year. The issue is that Money People see that as a failure because their bar of success is $500m/yr and runs itself

Institutional knowledge wiped out. And no one's going to want to pay them what they're worth, at least not in bulk. This generation of layoffs will cause permanent pivots away from gamedev.

I know what you're thinking: "But the magic of my enemies is weak, and their gods are hollow idols!" But what if I told you... that your enemies are thinking the same thing... about YOUR magic, and YOUR gods? And here's what's gonna make the difference: your enemies aren't in this seminar right now.

That’s why I hate it when powerful people reply to Musk by first throat clearing with respect, admiration etc before getting to the issue. If you ever did respect him, that’s sad. But at this point any deference at all is dangerous. Do not kiss the Nazi’s ass. Give him nothing but shit. Break him.

As usual Ed is completely right and we should be sounding the alarm now. If there's a major financial collapse because big money got wise to the grift that AI endless growth is propped up on lies the results will be devastating. Unlike the subprime mortgage crisis those responsible should be jailed
