hate to say it but AI is definitely coming for that most honorable and profoundly human of artistic endeavors: making Epic Rap Battle videos involving your favorite fictional characters and figures from history

Hey remember the cool cabinet sketches @jfriedhoff.bsky.social did for Rocket Dog? Well she finished them up. Side art + marquee + console! I am in love with them!! You can see more of her design process & all the cool stuff she makes over at www.tumblr.com/jane-dump #rocketdog #indiegames #arcade

there’s a tagger in ridgewood queens who paints “XBOX” in curly script with a smiley face as the “O” and that’s now the only positive association i have with the brand

Child: This is my first time meeting a mayor. Mamdani: Wow, have you ever met a prime minister? Child: No Norway PM Jonas Gahr Støre: *walks over*

I'm really sad about the death of one of my favorite wikipedia editors so here's a thread of some of the greatest articles he wrote

someone please run the numbers on staff retained from halo 5 -> infinite and infinite -> CE remake y’know, for science. surely microsoft ripping up any semblance of long term planning for the franchise and handing it to another team will work *this* time

catch me rushing pinwheel with nothing to lose 😈

No patch today, but here's an update on activities available for the rest of the Season: ➡️Double XP Boost. ➡️Sponsored Survival is back, and for the first time we'll be headed to Outpost!

Halo going from a genre redefining title that helped cement a console platform to just another Activision property is such a perfectly Microsoft enshittification of a thing they didn’t even make

In retrospect, Obsidian getting Pentiment out there into the world before Microsoft exploded really feels like they pulled off the weirdest heist in gaming history.

Scoop: Meta's Muse AI can make phone calls. Internally, Meta has told employees that many of these calls will be made by human beings in a call center: www.404media.co/meta-tests-m...

Meta Tests Muse AI Agent Calls That Are Actually Made By Humans in a Call Center

"This has potential for so much negative PR. It could portray us as ‘their AI is not good enough so they still need humans’ kind of coverage for this launch."

This is a sign of mental illness. This is an unwell man.

putting together some resources for data poisoning! any recs of tools you have seen / used? like nightshade or glaze

There is no such thing as art without a human on one end of the line and a human on the other end. In communication with each other.

they've got to bring this funky logo back

You do not hate Gavin Newsom enough. You just simply don't. If you have any hate for this Patrick Bateman boss boot licker in your heart, triple it. That's a start. Media consolidation at this scale is venom straight into the veins of the public. Insane how fast they caved before the midterms.

BREAKING: Paramount has reached a settlement with California and other states suing to block its acquisition of Warner Bros, per Bloomberg. The settlement comes after California AG Rob Bonta caved and stopped trying to block the merger. The final four holdout states have now conceded as well.

among other things, this is disqualifying for his inevitable potus run. if you won’t stand up to the billionaires and you can’t tell when they’re lying (which is always), you’re no better than what we have now.

The State AGs were on pace to kill the Paramount/Warner Bros by litigation and delay until Gavin Newsom stepped in and turned the tide. Now the Trump loyalist Ellisons will control CNN and HBO. Don't ever, ever forget that Newsom stabbed us in the back www.wsj.com/business/med...

Show: The Simpsons Language: Japanese

We live in a golden age of statements from video game companies that sound like estranged family explaining that they know they fucked up, they’ve worked on themselves, and they’re gonna do better now. And it’s only been a month since they told everyone to go fuck themselves and did a burnout.

truth in advertising: if you use this revolutionary new feature of ours the results WILL look like ugly garbage

arstechnica.com/gadgets/2026... a lot of people think the popularity of apple just boils down to good marketing but this being the leading AI-related pitch for thousand dollar laptops that run phone apps is a pristine example of how incredibly bad all the other tech companies are at the marketing

genuinely can't look at this and not think "hm the guy who got three people killed looks happy"

the museum sounds great i hope they also build one for women

Enjoyed seeing The History of Concrete on its opening weekend, somewhat embarrassed to say my favorite part might have been when a concrete planter shaped like a very corpulent pig that I walk by almost every day appeared on screen

@stefanheck.bsky.social really hope Army Streamers is staying as an expensive sound alert

POV you just won your Dana White's Power Slap contest against Jake Hager

It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you deem one group too small to have equal rights you are enabling fascism, not fighting it. The people saying Dems are GREAT on trans rights are not paying attention and/or saying stuff like this.
