Generation defining move here as a studio that was rebranded to only produce ONE IP gets gutted and the IP handed to a different company. Execs fumbling the ball EVERYWHERE. The line has met a ceiling that can't be broken through. Solidarity to those that have to suffer and pay for incompetence.

Xbox is cutting more employees today as it strips Halo Studios and other first-party developers. The next Halo game will be developed by Activision. www.rogue.site/news/xbox-la...

I'm sure this foreign intervention in local democracies is going to be considered "just fine" and that we will all be told that there is no concern that an Israeli app is being used by a politician to reward voters to spread pre-written narratives supporting specific political candidates.

New investigation: an Israeli app that allows political campaigns to feed supporters AI-generated arguments to use on social media has arrived in Canada. It's being used in the highest profile mayoral campaign in Canada, @rorywh.bsky.social reveals.

Don't suppose any Destiny content creator friends of mine (or friends of friends) has a big ol' folder of PNG assets they could share my way? Mainly looking for stat icons, subclass effects (buffs & debuffs), etc. Might flex my editing muscles and upload a couple build videos.

Cis allies, I'm really going to need you to step up and talk with your fellow cis people about why discussing Harry Potter in a shared space where anyone can hear you is demoralizing at best, and possibly triggering. I'm sitting this one out. I'm too tired.

If I may speak to my fellow Guardians for a second that are returning to log into Destiny today. I have a small ask of you: Do. Not. Rush. This is the last day of the rest of our Guardian's lives. We don't need everything **now**. Let it take a few months, enjoy the journey. Savour it.💠

Finally we get sometihng but... I'll be honest this has hit me HARD. It's going to take me a while to process and I may never let go. Of my friends. Of the memories. Of my Guardian who I made to help me. Some nice additions but. Yeah, bittersweet.

Destiny 2: Monument of Triumph artwork showing Guardians and civilians gathered on a red carpet in the Tower around a large monument beneath the Traveler, with banners and confetti framing the scene.

i'm so sick of this idea that people think faster = better. faster means immediate but inferior. it's not convenience to have something made quickly if it is really crappy, and even if it wasn't crappy, it's not as good as it can ever be if it was given the time.

"you need to learn how to use gAI or you'll get left behind!" counterpoint! the absolute fastest way to render yourself unemployable is to build your skillset around a tool that does your thinking for you, that everyone has access to, and that one company can change or take away at any time

Everyone rightfully points out how generative "AI" images are theft but I'm literally saying every response that google's machine summarizes at the top of search results is also theft. Those words and knowledge came from someone and is now unattributed, obfuscated, and spat out as the company's own.

Reminder that your platforms/audiences are your stage. when you see a clear grift or rage bait, showing them off to MORE people just helps the grift. Attention is what they want. When you give them your stage, it's free advertising. Your stage and time are precious. Don't give them to a grifter.
