This brings me immense joy. Also this means now I can also check out a bunch of their more recent stuff on stream without breaking BDS boycott of Microsoft.

Double Fine now officially owns all of its games made under Xbox and their publishing rights. https://kotaku.com/psychonauts-dev-now-owns-all-its-games-publishing-rights-2000726713

Reminder that EA games should be on your boycott list. They are now privately owned by the Saudi Arabian government, which has jailed and executed LGBT citizens, journalists, and women’s rights activists, and has funded the genocides in Yemen and Palestine. DO NOT SUPPORT EA GAMES!

I cannot express this any better.... the frustration is real

"We would rather eat rocks and drink gasoline than be split up" - Compulsion Games has officially completed its buyout from Xbox and now owns all its IP. Players who buy games like South of Midnight are now supporting the studio directly, its CEO says. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/we-woul...

Affiliates, be aware that these campaigns often have *very bad* rates. The max payout, usually less than $1/ccv anyway, is often unattainable because of fine print on the “completed views” rate. We talk about this in the partner discord a lot, but some streamers might not know how bad offers are.

Zach Bussey 🍁@zachbussey.tos.gg · yesterday

Twitch is opening the Sponsorship Dashboard to all Affiliates and adding an integration with Wehype for third-party campaigns (seemingly replacing StreamElements).

Look idk who needs to hear this cause I've seen alot of artists over the years dig this exact hole, but you need to finish your commissions. A percentage of your clients are going to be repeat commissioners. Another percentage of your clients heard about you from word of mouth. 🧵

You're offered $250,000,000 but to claim it you must enter the last video game you've played and stay there for a full year. How are y'all faring in this deal?

RIP Hayden Panettiere 🌸🖤 #kingdomhearts #fanart

I cannot stress enough: the AI bubble has already popped it is just being kept on life support by corporations trying to squeeze even a dollar more out of their shit investment, and tech bros doing the same before abandoning their shit company startups. keep hating on AI, you're winning

Hey folks, About that AI opt-out feature Twitch was talking about? It's not just the streamers that have to turn that off. EVERYONE has to turn it off, because anything on your account, including the clips you make, will be fed to that infernal, ignominious devil machine if you don't. /1

it's bread. #silenthill3 #sh3

Stole this from the comments because this shit shouldn't be behind a paywall.

So uh, this sure doesn't even mention the opt-out they just added does it? And the opt-out text says it doesn't affect what's mentioned in the privacy notice. This really makes it look like opting out effectively does nothing.

Zach Bussey 🍁@zachbussey.tos.gg · last wk.

Twitch updated its Privacy Notice. They added information on how it uses personal information to test and improve technology, including machine learning and AI. See the full document here: legal.twitch.com/legal/privac...

Hey everybody. I’ve seen the statement by Matt Karch, the CEO of Saber Entertainment, and all of the truly horrendous things he said about me. I think it should be obvious to anyone who reads that statement that he’s lashing out because he did not want people to know there was AI use in the game.

🚨PSA For Twitch Streamers Moving to YouTube! YT has (unfortunately) automatically enrolled creators in AI features for over a year and you must turn off MULTIPLE settings in YT Studio to avoid it! ➡️Under Advanced Channel Settings, make sure to turn off AI Training, AI Dubbing, + AI Enhancements!

I had so much fun taking cute personality quizzes today with y'all! I want to do this again in the future for sure! We raided into my cute meimei @ichinosekuri.bsky.social for some PEAK! This is my favorite result we got today 🐈 I will see you guys tomorrow @ 6:30PM CST for Vermintide 2! #vsky

The Twitch Streamer is exploring the idea of ignoring the Boss Battle feature Randomly, if the boss shows up in chat, the streamer will advocate for viewers to take a break or tell chat to ignore it until it goes away. When it leaves, you will get a thank you for not funding any stupidass ideas

Zach Bussey 🍁@zachbussey.tos.gg · last wk.

Twitch is exploring the launch of a Boss Battle feature. Randomly, a Boss will show up in chat, and viewers need to fight it with Subs, Gifted Subs, and Bits for it to go away. If you beat it, you may get a temporary emote and/or a chat badge.

PLEASE I played this game for 18 hours STRAIGHT on stream bc I love it so much. The art, the music, the story, the characters, the morals, the world, everything is so beautiful I CANNOT recommend it enough!!
