Something we don't discuss enough in game dev is how the ballooning costs and associated goalposts of AA and AAA game dev are inflicted on studios; budgets frequently get set by profit goals. No option to say "we want less funding and more realistic goals" or "let's negotiate a reserve for overrun."

The best way to support women / sex workers is by providing a bit of softness. A breath, a moment, recalibration, ease. ππβ€οΈ
Oh hey, Pete Docter can go to hell! Just call us faggots at this point, thatβs less offensive than saying our presence is going to send kids to therapy because their parents donβt know how to handle parenthood.
Thatβs exactly why I do it

More Cushing for the pushing
more than anything, i am just exhausted with the constant attempts to rewrite reality
gambling odds are "projections"
speculative crypto tokens are "currencies"
LLM text generators are "AI"
video games are "the metaverse"
just a neverending assault on our ability to accurately describe reality

I have such a complicated relationship with Spanish.
But Iβve gotten the chance to slip back into speaking it a few times in the last couple weeks and each time it gets easier and I feel less shame when I hear my accent color my English.
A dialogue box from Voyageur: Across the Unknown. Janeway asks "Mr. Neelix, do you have any D R U G S ?" Drugs is clearly photoshopped in green comic sans, far too big, and not aligned with anything.

Wow, this is one of the worst ideas Iβve seen all day and that is really saying something given the times in which we are living.
in my experience it is pretty nice
Lot of people being real defeatist about LLM news today and acting like you lost when you can just put that energy to mocking companies and organisations that use any kind of genAI and shame the fuck out of them. They hate that and itβs easy to do. Try inventing more words for them to ban!!

Love it when our nationβs defense contractors all spend their Friday nights subtweeting each other about killing everyone in the world
a tweet from 2017 I twatted: "sometimes men who commit sexual assault are talented screenwriters and their work comes with baggage. Other times, they're max landis"
I said it before and I'll say it again
it's hard to overstate the scale at which the investment in gAI is a catastrophic mistake
not just because they're pouring hundreds of billions into a tech on the vague hope that eventually they can jack up prices on it (the Uber model)
but how many other industries they're ruining to build this
I hate it here
