A reminder, because it is almost that time of year: More children are killed by cars on Halloween than any other day of the year, by far. www.vox.com/future-perfe... If you're a parent, I hope you'll do what you can to keep kids safe. If you're driving on Saturday, PLEASE exercise extra caution.

What institution should we get obama to lightly heckle next? Personally I think it would be funny to watch republicans trip over themselves for the honor of JC Pennys

If llms are supposed to elevate someone's skillset and streamline things like game dev, thus making them easier; then whyyyyyy do they keep making garbage? It's been a couple years now, where's the ai breakout title?

Inspired by the mundane trials and tribulations we've crafted for ourselves, the catholic church has announced that purgatory is now just your work's break room where you watch thousands of years of mobile game ads while your coworker coughs in the corner

Previously I have posted about a Nintendo of Europe downloadable premium animated wallpaper that featured a bizarre Toad eating the wallpaper. The files have finally been datamined, allowing the Wallpaper-Eating Toad to be observed in never-before-seen maximum quality.

Okay yeah, this is a good one

every sport has a fun term for a weird little oddball occurrence. basketball has the wedgie, where the ball gets stuck between the rim and backboard. football has the doink, where a kick bounces off a goal post. baseball has baseball games

Oregon's Measure 50 sets the maximum that the taxable value of a property can increase annually at 3%. SB 608 passed in 2019 sets the maximum that rent can increase at 10% (with new buildings exempt). This means that in essence, Oregon renters subsidize Oregon homeowners' property taxes.

This “core team” rhetoric is getting really weird. Games that take hundreds of people to make take hundreds of people to make. Just say it! We’re reinventing “QA is in another building and aren’t real devs” from first principles

Star Wars: Galactic Racer was made by a core team of 75 people. "What we wanted to do was keep that core small, smaller than perhaps you might have done in the past, and scale capacity and capability with what we call distributed development." https://bit.ly/4hT02qg

I'm so fucking confused by this approach. "Check out the power vibe-coding has afforded us!" "No, it actually has less features now, but remember when we didn't even have a shopping cart?"

Rock Paper Shotgun@rockpapershotgun.bsky.social

"We vibe coded a new Epic Games Launcher" because "programming is hard", announce company we're somehow supposed to see as a serious Steam competitor https://bit.ly/4hMHbi5

The author's brazen fetish, presented with such hedonistic flair and and open pride it makes you feel a little embarassed for needing to hide your own passions behind self-effacing jokes in order to preserve a sense of safe, pseudo-ironic detachment

i see why steam tries very very hard to hide the curator system from everyone because it gives a direct, horrifying look at the demographics actively using steam's community features

I think if people were to witness how often my wife falls asleep on the couch in lieu of going to bed, they'd probably be under the assumption I have her in the doghouse

the latest NL-ism i've found working its way into my vocabulary is thinking "fuck it bro. Send it" when sending work emails i'm sick of thinking about
