Bet it feels good as hell to be optimized if you're an app
Made it to the lab Tyrant as Chris knife only and if I was doing this without saves I would never know how to smile again how can he slap me so many times I never stood a chance
Learning about pause cancelling in Resident Evil 1 and nodding my head every time I do it so people know I think it's awesome

I want to stop bitching about AI but I keep seeing the argument made for AI translations that humans had X many years to do it and just to cut through everything else I kind of thought we were all mostly on the same page that LLMs are bad in general and we shouldn't be using them? Whatever!
It's 2026 and I can still lose an entire day to Resident Evil on PS1
TikTok has incredible moderation team. Our InfoWars video about Multiple Horse Theory — the idea that there are many horses in the world and not just one — has been fully deemed misinformation and lost the formal appeals process. Confirmed by Larry Ellison: There is only one horse on Earth.

I've thought for a long time that programmers on game translation projects don't get nearly enough credit and all these Claude translations coming out with untranslated strings and things just not working really show how hard it is to do these things right without the whole game collapsing
I will never translate a game if I don't have a strong attachment to it for one reason or another
If you are interested in making RetroAchivements sets for any game I have worked on the translation for please reach out so I can name at least one of the achievements
Maybe I should make some saccharine nostalgia bait physical media video
I'll let you decide who I'm thinking of, but I think part of being a good translator is being curious about the world, how it works, and how different people relate to it. And if you're only interested in prescribing "reality" instead of probing it, it puts your ability to empathize in stark relief.
