There was some reporting today about my foreign policy positions, which surprised everyone… including me.
To clarify, here’s where I stand:

Impeach him the second you get a majority, imo. Let this guy lay it all out.

Swen Vincke @LarAtLarian Holy fuck guys we’re not "pushing hard" for or replacing concept artists with AI. We have a team of 72 artists of which 23 are concept artists and we are hiring more. The art they create is original and I’m very proud of what they do. I was asked explicitly about concept art and our use of Gen AI. I answered that we use it to explore things. I didn’t say we use it to develop concept art. The artists do that. And they are indeed world class artists. We use AI tools to explore references, just like we use google and art books. At the very early ideation stages we use it as a rough outline for composition which we replace with original concept art. There is no comparison. I talked about how we use ML here if you would like to know more: https://gamespot.com/articles/baldurs-gate-3-dev-embraces-machine-learning-for-tasks-that-nobody-wants-to-do/1100-6531123/ We've hired creatives for their talent, not for their ability to do what a machine suggests, but they can experiment with these tools to make their lives easier.
The thing thats so insidious about using AI this way is that one of the main ways artists get hired are studios looking for art references and they find us and reach out.
This is removing a major avenue to get work if they can just generate nameless derivations of our ideas.
Like when people ask what separates Arc Raiders or Larian from E33, the honest answer is that people liked E33 more.
Generally speaking, I think the fight against AI might’ve been lost when E33 was able to get its use swept under the rug. At one point, when anti-AI advocates were stalwart, they found a case usage that was “acceptable” and that allowed a precedent.
This what it’s always been about for the colonizers. Trump is being very honest about US foreign policy here.
The US cannot accept other countries nationalizing their strategic assets and cutting US companies out, so they use sanctions, regime change, and even direct invasions as punishment.
Think it’s kinda justified in TLOU. If only because Abby spared Ellie first
you know who else blamed a minority group for every problem in their nation instead of addressing the issue?
Sudanese political analyst Kholood Khair explains the roots of the "nonsensical conflict" between Sudan's military and the paramilitary RSF, causing the world's largest humanitarian crisis. "We're seeing really a war against civilians."
that someone at a queer kink party came up to me and said he was fans of both me and paul tassi. it’s just a funny little in joke. so im just making a reference to that. thanks for listening.
just to clear things up, im not friends with anyone in the white house. i just follow kaelan dorr and he follows me back. he was involved in the old 2016 campaign back when i helped cover politics and he was part of that meme culture. i’ve never met the guy.
im joking with paul 1/2

im glad the government posting halo memes is revealing that half the people reporting on it are fine with it
NEW: I spoke to original Halo devs about that ICE Halo post
One: "abhorrent”
Another: "Using Halo imagery in a call to ‘destroy’ people because of their immigration status goes way too far, and ought to offend every Halo fan, regardless of political orientation”

It's fucking wild seeing people madder at Microsoft for not disavowing the Halo ICE thing than actually like you know...
Profiting off the facilitation of genocide.
Incredibly powerful words from Pastor David Black.
Mamdani did this without tacking to the center by accepting republican framing and throwing marginalized people under the bus or even apologizing for being socialist; something that party operatives who actually want to win might learn from.
"Why does games communication suck so much these days?"
Publications got shuttered. Writers with any experience to speak of are unemployed. Anyone left barely has time (or money) to do stuff. The rest of the air in the room is sucked up by grifters.
Can't wait for our government to stand up for the rights of a British citizen who has been kidnapped by overseas forces.
Oh, it's PS2 North America's launch anniversary
I'm sorry if you're sick of these, but they had to be drawn together... 🫂
happy 89th bday to the goat of voice acting nozawa masako
i know people kept talking about that one "it's the cute cozy job simulator where you're a TSA agent" game, but you gotta understand while that shit is heinous, it's from a company who does nothing but churn out "cute cozy simulator" games. they have like 10 coming out soon, this isn't even half
