SteveStillPlaysGames My channel 'Steves gaming part 2' was deleted by someone who had access to my computer. So begrudgingly I've started a new channel, this will be home to my gaming videos of games from the late 1970's...

I have a new Youtube channel up and running now. SteveStillPlaysGames, link here for anyone interested. www.youtube.com/@SteveStillP...

This all began with a concerned mutual reaching out to me, stating that they saw a notification that pointed at me using the Meta AI app and asking if my stance on generative AI had changed.
That’s when I learnt that Meta has been quietly using random people’s accounts to promote their app. The catch is… these people never actually downloaded the app. Including myself.

I just wanted to make this post to warn people. If you see a notification like that - know that it’s a lie, I never downloaded any AI app and never will. I’m an artist who values hard work and human effort, and generative AI repulses me to an unimaginable degree.

If you follow me on Instagram and you receive a notification about me joining or downloading Meta AI well, IT'S A FUCKING LIE. Meta is blatantly lying to us in order to make us download that fucking sludge-generator. I would never touch GenAI with a 10 foot pole.

I managed to grab the promo. It's not bad but it's quite different to the arcade version. I still had lives left at this point BTW.

Bomb Jack Extra Sugar by AnthonyFlack New expanded port for Amstrad CPC computers

I'm not an Amstrad fan but I am a Bomb Jack fan (I even have a genuine Tehkan PCB). The Extra Sugar version is pretty damned close to the original and adds extra levels.

I'm fully expecting the market to be flooded by China. There's now a massive opening and they're known for quick innovation.
