The EU Commission wants gaming virtually dead. Extremely abhorrent. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQRc...

Anyone in the EU can do two main things: Give Feedback (be respectful.): ec.europa.eu/info/law/bet... and Contact your MEP: www.europarl.europa.eu/meps/en/home I'd focus on asking for not wanting extra restrictions on game preservation, as this act would make preserving existing games harder.

The Poison Squad is such a must read/watch. bsky.app/profile/thea...
Yeah, there's a reason why we have the FDA, and why it takes experts to run it properly. www.pbs.org/wgbh/america...

We would love to develop for mobile but the mobile market is untenable for indies. Go complain to Apple and Google about it.
With constant price hikes and next-gen gaming hardware likely to break the bank during a cost-of-living crisis, @edmondtran.bsky.social proposes developers keep lowering the bar. Meaning? It's time to really embrace low-spec benchmarks so we can keep playing new games on devices we already own.
I now stream at Youtube! Currently I am streaming the old version of Monster Wars on Legacy iOS. www.youtube.com/live/A2a6xZn...

This is possibly the most significant attack on trans rights in this country yet, and I can count the number of posts on my timeline about this on my hands. If you're trying to dismiss this thinking "It'll die in the senate," DON'T! Sound the alarms now!
Bluesky tonight is neatly divided between trans people and family members appropriately angry and freaking out and everyone else who has barely noticed.

Today, DWI publishes a powerful essay by @mgasia.bsky.social, who works impersonating an AI sex companion: data-workers.org/michael/ This piece offers a rare glimpse into the psychological and economic realities behind one of the fastest-growing sectors: AI-assisted intimacy.

For those of you who haven’t been following this fight, Ana has been leading the charge against censorship by corporations, specifically payment processors. Recently it seems someone figured this out and has managed to black list them from almost any way of earning a living as an artist.

The wait is finally over. I have began uploading how I beat Pack 3 of Bloons iOS. These levels were no joke and multiple levels genuinely held me up for hours. I don't know if I'll do Pack 1 and Pack 2 as they are technically documented by Ninja Kiwi themselves. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqxj...

I've had a lot of people optimistically come up to me being like, "Yeah! We're gonna be OK!" but I don't see them taking any action like, spreading the word or making calls or sending letters and like I'm sorry but no, we will not be OK unless you put in with us. We still need you to be loud.
I just want to get my store and finances stable enough that I can start focusing on fun things again, like trying to fund horny videos or releasing super sexy comic, but I know this path is going to be long and tough and wow so many people who aren't in my position are so fucked you guys.

The reason it only took 1,000 calls to start the wave of censorship & it's taken 10,000 to even get them to acknowledge it is that Collective Shout didn't bully them into doing anything, it gave them an excuse to do something they already wanted to do So we must fight 20x as hard as they did

I actually had to explain to someone recently that the AI that tells enemies in video games how to react to player inputs is NOT genAI and has existed for literal decades. they genuinely had no idea there was a difference. this shit has poisoned the well so bad.
I hate AI, but I think we should think more critically about blanket-condemning anything that could be ai. Big genAI, which steals copyrighted works, poisons our collective knowledge, and consumes unconscionable amounts of energy is BAD. On-device ai that lets me search my photos for dogs is FINE.
