The dumbest thing is that the current admin complains about covid and blames all sorts of people for ruining the economy but not once have they done a damn thing about post-covid price gouging and artificial inflation from it. They can quite literally *do something about it* but they don't lol

Our team at @summitsphere.com does not, cannot, and will not use generative AI in our games. The choice to abide by this rule is driven by a few informed factors.
Me: *struggles to maintain my savings in this economy while making entertainment for people despite not being spend-crazy* EA: "Lol let's just fire successful creatives and pay the suit in his fancy office" Genuinely hate EA, and there is no excuse for a company that size to not pay their staff
Alternative headline: Andrew Willson lays off everyone who worked on successful Battlefield 6 to steal all the wealth they created.
You can hate Marvel for whatever reason you want, but I will absolutely die on the hill of “Loki and Wonder Man are some of the best fictional stories put to digital film in the last ten years,” because it’s absolutely true as a statement. If you’re too good for that, I’m too good for you.
People complaining about Ryan Gosling losing credibility because he is signing up for a Marvel production forget that a classically trained British actor signed up for a film with cartoon characters and you know what? That one turned out pretty good.
I feel like I need to have a giant banner that says "I think the Castlevania cartoon sucks and is the worst thing to happen to the series, and I'm not interested in Belmont's Curse at all", because I definitely get to hear about those things a lot 😅

I sent a couple family members the shirt I designed for TASQ, and my dad said the art is very "me", which is cool I suppose?
I can't believe in the year 2026 we saw a kid riding a Wild Wacky Action Bike in real life
Are there any easy to follow and comprehensive docs for getting into Godot for people who've used Game Maker pretty exclusively for many years? Asking for a friend. I'm my friend.
It's a sequel but it's actually a remake that they keep calling a sequel but they decided to change the genre to something similar to a black and white television series from the 30s and a guy spends a lot of alone time in a cabin with a bunch of furniture and a shed and uh a deer head on the wall
Lifelong sailor drives boat to Maine, then retires.
God I’m excited for whenever I can eat my daily salads again. TURNS OUT the company that supplies the lettuce I’ve used almost exclusively is potentially one of the poo-poo rocket causers so I likely dodged a bullet.
The news: "Studies show that eating lettuce makes you poop yourself to death, but nobody knows what farms' lettuce makes you poop yourself to death." Taco Bell, the last bastion of hope on God's green flat Earth: *pulls lettuce to be safe* Idiots: "TACO BELL IS THE CULPRIT!"
I know this isn’t profound knowledge or anything but the worst thing about getting old is that things just do not recover like they used to. I used to get a dull backache that would go away in a day and now it takes weeks.
Bluesky's video embed is broken so if you fullscreen it just takes you to the top of your feed and stops the video so you lose whatever video you were watching because y'know... vibes...
George Lucas has consistently been the worst part of Star Wars. Without Carrie Fisher and Marcia Lucas the original trilogy would have been terrible, and it's PAINFUL how the magic disappeared for everything since. That being said, no wonder he wants AI to help him make movies lol he sucks at it.
George Lucas says AI will make it 'much easier to make movies' • Says rejecting it is like rejecting cars in favor of horses • AI has risks, but he believes the tech will provide its own solutions "There’s nothing you can do about it ... That’s progress, it’s the future" (via A Rabbit's Foot)
