Yesterday's news about Jacob Geller broke my heart, so much that I couldn't stop dwelling on it all day. In an effort to make sense of this horrific news and my admittedly complicated feelings about it, here is my article on the Jacob Geller situation: epiloguegaming.com/what-do-we-d...

What Do We Do With Jacob Geller? - Epilogue Gaming

Earlier this week, a friend noticed Jacob Geller’s book, How A Game Lives, sitting amongst my living room shelves. Under almost any other circumstances, this would have been an exciting invitation for...

Okay a tiny thread because people are going to freak out: This exploit in particular takes advantage of a special command that renders images (via attribute escape). If you have an overlay that processes images (most don't) then yes, this is your problem. Overlay must explicitly create img DOM.

A picture of the exploit, using a command that explicitly includes an image file extension, but also would escape out of the src attribute of an image such than an onerror attribute can be added to the img tag. This onerror attribute can run explicit javascript immediately.

Default behavior for most chat widgets is if you have an image it will not attempt to modify image links into actual HTML image tags. Your overlay/overlay service must explicitly be doing this for you.

Ive slowly come to realize that the sheer *bad*ness of ai slop(*) has eroded my convictions(**) on its ethical issues. Like, when I see something ai gen. and it's not just the most ugly thing I've ever seen I start thinking "well, at least this isn't AS bad" and I feel like that's worse in a way

Last year, miHoYo copied my puzzle game Ouros in Zenless Zone Zero. Because they are a recognized, billion-dollar studio and my game isn't well known, some people are now assuming that their version is the original, and mine is the clone. I hope this video clears that up.

On a similar note of "posting really good videos" this one popped in my recommendations randomly and really got into a lot of thoughts I've had swirling in my head. Really put into words a lot of stuff and tied them together in ways I really appreciate (even though I'm far from a pvp game player)

New viveo essay's out! Competitions are about skill tests, but nobody really seems to want to reckon with how fundamental social skills are to that - except me, who's about to be really really brave. Why Social Skills Actually Matter In Competitions: youtu.be/KzrAlENP33g #ViveoEssay

from the creator of my favorite video of last year comes a sequel to my favorite video of last year, which is probably going to be my favorite video of this year. both of his videos on AI have so heavily influenced and put shape to my vague poorly defined ideas in ways I didn't know i needed tbh

Out now: AI and the Murder of Truth. And Air Bud. On AI, education, fascism, paying the Dane-geld, and why there ain’t no rule says a dog can’t play basketball. The follow up to last year’s “You are a better writer than AI.” If you liked that video, this is worth your time. youtu.be/sETvPBVKBAY
