I guess it's "woke" now to expect guests to be respectful?

Maybe we should be clearer. Jobs aren’t at risk from AI. They’re at risk from amoral shitbag short term spec capitalists using AI against a weakly unionised workforce and broken government.

An absolutely incredible add-on for anyone making shaders with Godot! Click different lines in your shader code and instantly preview the output at that point in the code.

I haven't played in a long time, so I never saw the pop-up notification in the loading screen.

What a horrible way to handle a breach notification.

Star Citizen studio suffered a data breach in January, and some players aren't happy with the very quiet disclosure that only happened this week Cloud Imperium says no financial data or passwords were taken in the leak, but some players say the studio should have done a better job of notifying them anyway.

So I only poke my head in Star Citizen now and then when others mention it, but I only just heard about a data breach they recently had, check your info and virtual starships

My partner and I have an understanding that it's expected that we wake each other up for *that* news.

Honestly, I don't see how the importers *could* repay consumers; the tariffs passed through a kajillion intermediaries in the sales chain. I think we'd have to have special legislation to recoup the refunded tariffs from the importers and then have the gov't send out checks. Which won't happen.

This is also every mobile dev since the beginning of time.

Why does my cat try to kill himself in such stupid and mystifying ways?

I just found him walking around with a large rubber bend in his mouth. I cannot remember the last time I used or even saw a rubber band.

Where did you even find that, dude?

Unity Asset Store will remove all assets from publishers based in China, Hong Kong, and Macau after March 31, 2026.

I'd really like to understand the bigger story behind this because it has broader implications for growing global divides.

Same. My first impulse was to try to find out which came first, tbh.

I want to believe this with every fiber of my being, but it remains to be seen.

I honestly want to believe that they're not on board with all of the horrific shit that's happened in the last decade or more, but the evidence would strongly suggest otherwise.

Ever since I was a kid, if food was too hot to hold in my hand it went straight into my mouth.

Which has on more than one occasion shocked my family, as they stare wide eyed and incredulous at the literally sizzling noise coming from my open mouth.
