I love linux

I am the rock that the waves of industry must break down before they can reach the shores. I must be so stubborn that my presence forces them to remove me or change their ways for the better. It fucking sucks. I don't think I win this one, but I'll try.

Hi everyone, today me and 22 others at Double Fine were hit by layoffs today. All the people who lost their jobs today care so much about the games they make and the people they work with. If anyone is looking for a tools SE with 7 years of experience and who brings baked goods on Mondays lmk.

please stop suggesting I solve my problem by changing my behavior. I do not want to do that

Got my zoomer cousin to ask his ChatGPT to summarize it's knowledge of him. He didn't like it. Gonna try to get a self-hosted LLM that is good enough. The bar is blue-collar work search engine that can also edit cat pictures to make them fat.

I think it's a good reason to not want AI in gamedev because you want to see the bugs and think about how they got there. Like if AI made the Dwarffort drunk cat bug I wouldn't care. But since it was a consequence of Tarn being clever in spikey ways, I love it.

Dude all OpenAI needed to do to not accidentally hack was to hire a guy to watch the robot and unplug it if it hacks. Absolute carelessness. Wondering what the line is going to be, because we might not get a safety-wake-up-call as marked as Chernobyl with this tech.

I've been telling ppl for years (as a crazy person) that 'updates' are for the express purpose of fixing an issue that you know you have. This 'constant, continuous, mandatory' update system serves only to deny users access, and add spyware to machines. Always has. Fight me, vibe coders

I think I'm gonna have to politely tell my boss to get rid of an AI slop comment in his PR. Bracing to be instantly vaporized, but I have principals. It was nice knowing you all.
