Shouldn't vandalising the moon get you put into super, mega, universe prison?

Worst mild disappointment? Discovering a great new blog whose last post was 11 years ago.

Tim Sweeney's Infinite AI dialogue in games will not work. Because deep down players don't actually want to play-act thru a dialogue. There is a natural embarrassment to acting or having to say or write things you don't believe. And that actually breaks immersion.

We brought Poinpy back and it's totally free, as in real free, not 'mobile game free'. Please go and squash some fruit immediately.

Dear god, this is the next regression. Clearly the AI companies are desperate to monetise their nonsense and their tactics will only get more insidious... ads.openai.com

What kind of soulless asshole cheats at... Birdwatching?!!?

Yesterday, WIRED learned that Madison Square Garden was suing us for our accurate reporting. We stand by our work. That’s why we’re removing the paywall from two of the MSG stories they don’t want you to read, making them free for everyone.

I oppose all non-vegan food production, but farming octopuses somehow feels cruel beyond comprehension. I believe we should not eat anything that has consciousness, so eating beings that are highly intelligent (by our own standards) seems even more wrong.

Come on, George, surely YOU can come up with a better analogy for the art and craft of filmmaking than transporting stuff.

Am I the only person who, pretty frequently, copies something to my clipboard, then forgets what I've actually copied 5 seconds later? Have to keep finding 'safe' places to paste stuff because I have no idea what it's going to be...

My go-to on this topic has always been Terry Pratchett:

If there's one thing we know, it's that you folks LOVE a physical EDITION! 🎮 There's never been a better time to support our tangible, physical releases supported by our ever stalwart partners @DoesItPlay.org What would you like us to bring to life next? 🔗⤵️

Extremely sad to think I'll never release another physical game for PlayStation. Releasing the physical versions of Animal Well was a huge motivator all throughout development. It really kills my desire to develop for the platform. I'm hoping they reverse this decision : (

Everybody in the "climate space" (which means everyone on earth...) needs to understand these mind-blowing figures. Google's "total electricity consumption jumped from 31 terawatt hours (TWh) in 2024 to 43 TWh in 2025." In ONE year. The AI corporate arms race is eating the world.

Ketan Joshi@ketanjoshi.co · last mo.

NEW BLOG FOR YOU Google's energy consumption numbers in their new climate report are mind-blowing. 2 years ago they flipped from linear to exponential growth, and their climate impact is blowing out, too. A WILD testament to the obscene bloat and waste of GenAI: ketanjoshi.co/2026/07/01/g...

My biggest pet peeve is that there's a ton of scam websites that are "Free QR Code Generator"s then the QR code stops working after a few days and then redirects you to ask you to PAY to re-activate it. I made a page on website for making ACTUALLY FREE QR Codes. Enjoy. konig.games/QRCodes/ #QRCodes

I'm biased, but this has to be one of the best ways to pitch a bunch of "go in blind" games that I've ever seen (from the "Hidden Depths" Steam bundle page) store.steampowered.com/bundle/70688...
