yeah man, no way this will go wrong

Rounding out the 2026 season, I attended Death of a Salesman at the Stratford Festival. I don't think Arthur Miller could have predicted how successful his play about the flawed American Dream would be. I'm sure he hoped it would feel less timely 75 years later. manastone.ca/2026/10/10/d...

Hey, we're gaming.

Roko's Basilisk, aka Pascal's Wager for dimwits.

The cult of LLMs is deeply ridiculous. LLMs are not, and never will be, sentient. You’ve created a statistical machine that uses statistics to create output that looks like the training data. No matter how wishful your thinking, this is clearly not how human thought or sentience works.

Hey Ezra you're an idiot and a coward, turn those comments on buddy.

Adjusted for population size, the death toll on Oct 7 was (!) about 15x larger then 9/11 so I find this act by Mamdani highly offensive

Lol lmao

The developer behind Teach My Little Sister How to Drive, a driving generative AI-powered instruction sim, has been spending $1000 a day to keep the demo running, and now, they've had to take out a bank loan to keep up. https://bit.ly/4rWqe8g

“Return to the Past” and the Rejection of Adulthood - Manastone

From fast food, to video games, to culture, some people just want to flee their own adulthood. To reject life and seek childhood won't help.

This is a bit mean but I do think a frustrating amount of gaming chatter is dominated by people who don't particularly care for games anymore but are too reluctant to admit that they might be drifting away from them, which means tons of "games were better before my parents got divorced" takes.

I like seeing the dev of the SNES core on the Pocket actually telling one of these dudes off. Holy shit.

There is currently a glut of Starcraft: Brood War content focusing on Pluto AI, a bot that has reached the top of the ladder and is beating pros. It's basically a bot that plays at 6000 APM and can see invisible units. It's Deep Blue for Starcraft fans. I'm already sick to death of it.

A Midsummer Night's Dream was a surprisingly good production, possibly one of the best shows the Stratford Festival put on this season. manastone.ca/2026/10/03/a...

Tonight is Match 4 of the ASL Season 22 Round of 8. It's Leta vs Soulkey. Will we see "Wraith Flaming-Skull" bring out his famous wraiths, or will we see his more-developed Terran play? Soulkey is a monster, and very likely to take the whole season!

Time to get spooky.

Checking out Match 3 of ASL Season 22 Top 8. Soma vs JD. It's Zerg vs Zerg so this could be short.

i can feel the spookiness in the air

I'm no coward.

finally, a good threads post

Is there any harm in using AI to work on — or entirely create — projects for the Sega Saturn and elsewhere in the retro gaming scene? Yes, PandaMonium says in this opinion column, equating such work to digital asbestos: www.segasaturnshiro.com/2026/09/24/c... #sega #saturn #segasaturn #retrogaming

Nothing quite like discovering a new and interesting project and then finding out they are using AI coding. Oh well, in the bin.

Good.

This is epic #FAIL! 🤣 "One 23-year-old complained that his attempts at getting laid would get derailed as soon as he told a potential hookup that he worked at Palantir, the AI surveillance and defense company. Dates quickly questioned his morals; one called him the devil."

Conservatism wants you to reject your own adulthood. From yellow burger packaging to video games, it isn't better to be a child. manastone.ca/2026/09/26/r...
