Alright guys there's even less excuse now! You're genuinely just an AI supporter if you continue to play on Epic Games/Fortnite! None of that "im supporting the real art" there IS no real art! You are wrong in this situation! You are supporting AI! Fucking commit! Stop dick sucking a shitty company!

NEW: Epic Games has delayed its upcoming (not yet announced) Star Wars + Marvel shooter as it pivots to complete AI game development. "No more hand-written code," a director told staff. All art "generated with full AI workflows." Full scoop: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

You should be asking why Rockstar gets to do this and doesn't run into any issues with payment processors, while the rest of anyone drawing or writing "explicit content" on any platform have so much trouble getting paid

IGN@ign.com

GTA 6 has received a rating of PEGI 18, revealing mentions of "decapitation," the ability for players to snort cocaine at any time, "scenes of sexual fetishes," and much more.

God I need to find a way to play sax more often without getting self-conscious about disturbing other people in my building. The stamina in my embouchure is completely gone lol

I will add pressure to this by saying that any company that claims to not hold onto your personal data after verifying you? They're lying. Ive been nitro free since the first time they tried this, voice how you feel with your wallet people. Make them really feel that squeeze.

It's been a long time since I charted something just because I got inspired after hearing it, but this song popped up in a discussion and I had to throw it together. And then I had to play it on 125 because I love terrible ideas

Even if we're extremely generous and assume that the intention of this was "people who wanted to opt in wouldn't take the effort to go turn this setting on", the appropriate response is "bro just make a popup notification asking people if they want to opt in"

Calvin and Hobbes strip that says it quite well;

even if LLM actually made gamedev more efficient, which I see no reason to believe it has or will, that won't reduce crunch, because the business people will just push harder until you're crunching again. When a tool increases worker productivity, that doesn't translate into better work hours.

Your periodic reminder that people are *more* abusive online when they're using their "real names" than when they're using a persistent pseudonym and this effect has been replicated in literally every study that has ever been done

I remain of the view that regulation of social media is better than a ban for young people. But I also pretty much agree with all these proposals.

They’re packaging it like this so it looks like a shallow trend, but Gen Z has gone through two financial crises, a pandemic, rising fascism, active shooter drills since they were toddlers, and are now being told by the oligarchy they’re to be replaced by robots. Socialism is the logical conclusion.

Three years ago, I did my first ultimate (UCoB) solely to get the dragon wings for my adventurer plate. That alone was a big commitment, but it eventually hooked me into clearing all the ultimates lmao

#wolqotd Players: what was your biggest commitment in terms of ingame activity only for a single piece of glam or qpose? In my case I think that will be resistance relic to get Law's Order Rapier for my RDM.

Turns out Ko-fi is blatantly allowing bots with galleries full of GAI, specifically says not to report them unless there's specific illicit depictions (the same guidelines actual art has to follow basically.) Anyone care to put a word in with me? ko-fi.com/survey

All those Discord alternatives that y'all are trying to push (Stoat, Matrix, Fluxer, Root, etc.) will have to comply with this as well if we don't stop this. CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES EVERY DAY & TELL THEM TO VOTE NO ON KOSA, SCREEN Act, & ANY OTHER INTERNET CENSORSHIP BILLS!

hi guys I know I haven't been very active lately, and I don't talk about where I'm from often, but the government made some really scary announcements today so I thought I'd share to let everyone know what's happening. here are some posts from twt for context
