Alex Kraus@alexfkraus.bsky.social · yesterdayOkanP's game veteran supergroup Musou Infinity (also feat Nintendo character designer Takara Imamura and Square Enix's Kenji Ito) is making their debut performance in Tokyo next week at the GG festival at Big Sight. I just got a ticket. Anybody want to join me?
Because I am TERRIBLE at timing, I'm selling my boxed #Transformers Predaking mere DAYS after everyone is all knackered from #TFN! Boxed, complete (haven't even applied stickers!). Selling Due To Broke. Also, enjoy the description. I am once again Back On My Bullshit www.ebay.co.uk/itm/11734011...
Disappointing to see Anthropic collaborating with The Resource Alliance, charities are knee deep in AI thanks to the push from industry bodies & resource agencies and i'm not seeing much push back against it.
Love that the Develop folks thought this was a good pic to add to the gallery, I look really disappointed with whatever Hannah is saying 😂
No seriously, where's my Fox merch?

The 80/50 problem: #Japan faces a looming crisis of hikikomori in their 40s and 50s relying on parents in their 70s and 80s, whose savings are being drained to keep their adult chicks in the nest. What happens when they die? unseen-japan.com/japan-hikiko...
Japan’s Hikikomori “80/50” Crisis is Putting a Strain on Elderly Parents - Unseen Japan
Japan coined the word "hikikomori" for teen shut-ins, but no one stays young forever. Today, many hikikomori are in their 40s and 50s.

I really wanted to love Rhythm Heaven Groove but it's a little disappointing, the tracks are a bit meh and it feels too easy.
I just realised after having the Series X since launch that I never had the vibration/force feedback on. How did I not notice this until now?
PSA: If you go see the new Spider-Man in theaters, you can go home during the credits. The post credits scene is so short and vague that you won’t get anything out of it unless you are a very very thorough Marvel fan. And even then, it doesn’t really reveal anything.
Scoop: The AI music generator Suno was hacked. Hacker shared source code that shows how the tool was made and part of the music and podcasts that were scraped to create it. Decades worth of music, lyrics, and podcasts from YouTube, Deezer, Genius & more www.404media.co/hack-reveals...

I’m gutted and thrilled to announce that I’m selling my beloved, ultra rare Cosmic Smash NAOMI arcade cabinet. Gutted because it’s what inspired RapidEyeMovers’ debut game C-Smash VRS and thrilled because someone else will get to enjoy its iconic beauty. I need more space. 🙏 ebay.io/m/g6JXxl

Imagine if the BBC headline had read: “Planes flew into the World Trade Center, Americans say” Because this is the equivalent: Israeli settlers set fire to mosques, cars and farm land in West Bank, Palestinians say www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Fuck the BBC. Seriously.
Israeli settlers set fire to mosques, cars and farm land in West Bank, Palestinians say
The latest attacks come two days after a clash between settlers and Palestinians near the village of Tell, which left four Palestinians and two Israelis dead.

Played quite 2 games this #scanlinesunday Karnov's Revenge by DataEast which definitely isn't similar to Street Fighter 2 in any way 😅
I'm a big fan of Peepo Choo by Felipe Smith so it took me a few years but I was able to track down his early work MBQ. It doesn't have the heart or the introspective angle that Peepo Choo had (at least not yet being 1 volume in) but it's still fun.
Spent way too long trying to figure out how to download the Marvel Tokon Open Beta on Steam. Turns out this random “Download Demo” button is how you do it? Ok…
