Hat der ORF Steiermark auf Insta gepostet. Bericht über den heißesten Tag im Jahr 1989. Es hatte *trommelwirbel* 31 Grad. Heute fast schon ein kühler Sommertag, wo die Leute überlegen, ob man überhaupt baden gehen kann. Zeigt wie verschoben die Wahrnehmung schon ist.

The good thing though is there are people still on X who won’t leave and their staying empowers musk and extends his reach. Oh I meant bad thing. Yeah that’s a bad thing. Sorry I was confused as the entire game industry stays there and attracts new users while normalizing this hate speech.

Elon Musk, owner of X, has called the editor of the Economist "a traitor to the West, plain and simple" after her recent interview with him. He now argues that "anyone who opposes remigration is a traitor" Musk has been socialising violence since Aug25: "fight or die, that's what it comes down to"

@dachsjaeger.bsky.social Hoffe dir gehts schon bisschen besser! Vermiss deine Energie im DF Content. Habs speziell jetzt gemerkt wie ich mir den FF7 Rebirth shader mod angeschaut hab und mich über Coverage von dir darüber gefreut hätte. Nix gegen Oli, er is eh super :) Alles Gute weiterhin Alex! <3

Die Wiener Linien stellt auf den Haltestellen jetzt Bänke mit asozialen Trennern auf. Super zum Obdachlosen-Verscheuchen. Auch super wenn man sich mim Rucksack am Rand quer draufsetzn will und dann nimma draufpasst. Insgesamt halt a Orschloch-Aktion. Simma in USA dass ma so an Schaß brauchn?

Now THIS is a politician.

In light of consoles moving away from physical games, a PC gamer shares how they made physical cartridges that can load and play their Steam games.

This is a (are) much much better argument(s) than the original list.

I appreciate DHH's thoughts, but I disagree on where Europe's problems are, and from where I'm sitting it's not immigration. Thus I wrote a response to his post. dark.ronacher.eu/2026/7/17/li...

A case for focusing on Europe’s actual problems.

We have canceled our sponsored stream with SNK. We have heard the concerns from our community regarding this partnership, specifically the company’s majority ownership by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, and the human rights concerns tied to the Saudi government.

I get firing people because your execs make one blunder after another and got you by the balls so you cant get rid of them. You can be an asshole without being cruel. Fuck everything about this.

I and a good number of very talented game devs were laid off by Obsidian as part of the Microsoft sacrificial rituals this morning. If you or anyone you know is looking for a Senior Writer/ND with more than two decades' experience in titles like Dragon Age and Mass Effect, please let me know!

I was one of the dozens of devs laid off at Obsidian today. Incredibly priveleged to have landed my dream job right after school. Obsidian was an amazing place to work. The cancer Xbox. And Ive always been an Xbox hater! Fun fact: I dont even own my own game on their shitty console.

Shame on MS to play with people's livelyhoods like that.

Just watched a video by the FT about social issues. They don't even try to hide their right wing bias anymore. Fascinating.

I spent the last few months talking to over 30 game developers about generative AI. It began as a sort of interview survey but became a pretty comprehensive collection of arguments against the technology altogether. www.gamesradar.com/games/why-so...

Why so many game developers don't want to use generative AI

With credits ranging from Dispatch and Marvel Rivals to Uncharted and Dragon Age, over 30 devs share their thoughts on gen AI

@jasonschreier.bsky.social there HAS to be some legality around this. I am not saying it is investor fraud, but it sure smells like it.

Game File: Microsoft already planned to shut down or split with Ninja Theory when Senua was announced. "The thinking was that the promise of a newly announced game would help draw investor interest in the studio" www.gamefile.news/p/xbox-studi...

I’m open minded on real names. We should definitely ban “cartoon avatar coupled with cutesy or “funny” name and behaves like an absolute tool” though.

@plocaploca.bsky.social Die haben dich falsch gschriebn! Vielleicht mal ein Fax schicken, damit sie den Fehler nicht mehr machen in Zukunft :)

I kind of like the reply though.

empty streets, grainy clouds, snowfall against the twin towers. Early 3D games have preserved New York City in a surreal way — polygons coalesce into a fuzzy nostalgia for a place that no longer exists. It’s cold out there. youtu.be/VZgxZb7rAmg
