Biggest miss of the Minecraft movie was it not having an official soundtrack composed of the most famous Minecraft parody songs re-covered by their OG artists. The actual Coldplay covering CaptainSparklez’s Fallen Kingdom could have fixed this country…

just realized that people who have never heard of jojo's bizarre adventure before are going to call part 7 woke and evil because the villain is the US President. we could be entering a reality in which they talk about jojos on fox news

A top economics reporter goes off script on national TV: “I am going to say this at risk of my job, but what President Trump is doing is insane.”

Tried to organize some thoughts on the current generative AI push in video game development. What bugs me is how much executives seem to think that the human touch has no bearing on why people like games, and that players will just play ANYTHING. www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/why-w...
Why would I ever want to play a video game created by AI?
Generative AI is creeping into video game development, but there will never be a true substitute for human decision making.

Purely coincidental, Reuters won a Pulitzer Prize for this investigation into Elon Musk: www.reuters.com/investigates...

It's cool that JD Vance converted to Catholicism and then the Pope had to write a letter explaining that his conscience is busted
Rich Raho@richraho.bsky.social · last yr.Pope: "The rightly formed conscience cannot fail to make a critical judgment and express its disagreement with any measure that tacitly or explicitly identifies the illegal status of some migrants with criminality."

I'm the lookout for more freelance work starting soon, so please keep me in mind for anything! I do it all - and quite well, or so my clients say. (Reposts appreciated) - Guides, reviews, news, features - Press releases - Consulting - Mock reviews - Basically anything you need that's not illegal
I mean yes, there is such a concept in Christianity. It appears quite notably in the letters of Paul, for instance, where it’s a concept he *relentlessly* argues against, and in the Gospel where it’s a concept Jesus very much repeatedly scorns. So it is technically in there!
Let’s call this what it is - a concentration camp. If you’re quiet on this stuff, you’re complicit.
Nikki McCann Ramírez@nikkimcr.bsky.social · 2y agoTrump announces an executive order authorizing a 30,000 capacity migrant detention center in Guantanamo. "Some of them are so bad we don't even trust the countries to hold them because we don't want them coming back, so we're going to send them out to Guatanamo Bay."
journalism is taught as a craft of deference. we must always “defer” to other sources because journalists are trained to have the “perspective from nowhere.” there’s no safeguard when the institutions are questionable, and the deference continues. i don’t blame anyone for not trusting us.
MarkG@markggarcia.bsky.social · 2y agoAt this point, the media is in on the troll right? I mean at the very least it pays to keep the “controversy” going.
I’m just going to say that AOC is the acting leader of the Democratic Party until someone proves otherwise. At least insofar as she is responding to the moment with leadership.
Never in my career have I seen such a giant gulf between What Companies Think Is the Most Important Thing in the World and What Normal People Have Absolutely Any Interest in Whatsoever

Gen ai is poisoning our power grid, stealing intellectual property, using precious water, and ruining the internet with unreliable information and garbage imagery. Don't use it, and don't normalize it, even for laughs.
