Yeah in terms of game news btw for the EA shit you should all basically expect nothing to ever come out of EA ever again. If ME4 does limp across the finish line expect it to be slopped out and made by a skeleton crew scared of getting fired at random.
David Dalglish@ddalglish.com · 10h agoDon't forget, when prepping for the sale, they insisted they could make up the gaps via AI replacing programmers. So, you know, an absolutely flawless plan.
Genuinely do not get why ANYONE other than researchers and niche industry uses are TOUCHING ai Programming? Find the code you need on stack overflow then save it in a .txt Movies/art? Why would I want something that NOBODY had passion in and just wanted a machine to make for them

JK Rowling centre says Amnesty apology does not solve ‘reputational damage’ — The Independent
Beira’s Place was among organisations labelled ‘anti-rights’ in a briefing document.

How exactly is Amnesty supposed to stand up against human rights abuses committed by actual governments with armies, if one crusty TERF asshole can rattle a lawsuit at them and make them back down? Fucking embarrassing levels of cowardice. Losers and hypocrites.

Richard Spencer dropped right out of the public consciousness shortly after some dude socked him in the face while he was trying to ragebait. You show ragebaiters they are unwelcome and destroy their credibility. You don’t ignore them.
The WNBA is now throwing away many years of goodwill in order to cater to misogynists who don’t even watch the WNBA.

There are only three possible futures: a) everyone in the Trump admin goes to jail, rule of law partially restored; b) Dems retaliate in full, and maybe that's a deterrent; c) neither (a) nor (b), so lawless authoritarianism wins again, and when Republicans regain power they ramp it up even more.
Murshed Zaheed@murshedz.bsky.social · last wk.“Trump has rejected disaster aid for Democratic-run states at the highest rate in the 47-year history of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.” Right now people in blue states are basically paying federal taxes as if they’re colonized territories of red states. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...
we should charge the C-suite with fraud and theft if they take a tax credit meant to keep people employed and then cut staff anyway.

Just a head’s up to everyone who hasn’t reassessed their relationship with Shopify yet: its CEO is actively pushing far-right politics in Canada, now with Elon Musk’s explicit support!

The chintzy-looking M64 clone console of the N64 by a company named ModRetro has been released, I think, I don't pay attention that closely to shit. But as the great @frankcifaldi.bsky.social posted before, it is our civic duty to push back against this company and shun ANYONE who doesn't.
Israel is giving Trump's former campaign manager millions of dollars to fill the internet with pro-Israel articles written by AI, not so that anyone will actually read them, but so that *LLMs will train on them* & regurgitate their perspective. This is the future of the information environment.

Nobody wants predictive data models to stop working for the people in medicine. Or translating ancient Pompeii texts. Or the other ways we were already using it. We want it to stop replacing workers, killing the environment, and stealing from artists. Hope that clarifies.
Very cool that Shopify’s CEO thinks the poor should have far less of a vote than the rich. Still worth that ad read money, folks?
