i've recently heard that some ai bros want to make an smw central alternative because we don't allow gen ai content on the site. here's my direct response to those people. "who owns rom hacking?" and other questions ai poisons us with shoujo.gay/who-owns-rom...

I just came to the realization that Flowery Deltarune could very well be some people's first exposure to ikemen characters, and that we can probably expect people to compare anime characters to Flowery... I don't know how to feel about that...

Early copies of Super Mario Sunshine had several bugs, including a fatal memory leak that would not only cause the Chucksters to throw Mario into our dimension, but it would, more importantly, IRREPARABLY BREAK the GameCube. This was patched in subsequent copies.

We're laughing at this guy for saying something dumb while in the throes of AI addiction, but now I'm wondering if we shouldn't treat it like a drug or alcohol problem. These people need help.

exhausting to have discussions about the game industry online because devs will be talking about labor issues and players feel the need to chime in and make it about their personal tastes in games

This is an amazing precedent to set and an excellent angle to attack genAI from

Purchase with Purpose@purchase-w-purpose.bsky.social

Millions of copyrighted songs were fed to AI music generators - now there's proof Suno and rivals are being sued for $150k per song. A sum that would bankrupt these companies and set an important precedent.

Experimental post: The Time 5-Year-Old Supper Mario Broth Thought Luigi Was a Cryptid I share a story from my personal life about the first time I encountered Luigi at the age of 5. Due to a combination of factors, I was unprepared for him and ended up believing he was a cryptid.

The two truths: 1) There is nothing wrong with porn, let people safely make it, let people safely enjoy it. 2) If you let people define porn as bad, authoritarians will ALWAYS expand the definition until their hands are around your neck.

In the spirit of April Fools' Day but without sacrificing the Supper Mario Broth veracity policy, here is a fact that seems so outlandish as to be a joke, but is actually true: in 1993, a Sega ad campaign briefly planned to use profanity to slander Mario.

fun reminder: the reason why they make these fucking pointless "live action" remakes is because since it's "live action", the animation is considered "vfx" and not character animation, so they can pay these non-unionized satellite studios fuck-all and make a cool few million for essentially nothing

First look at Tamatoa in the live-action ‘MOANA’ remake.

🚨 It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work. This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public. Please spread the word. 🧵 1/4

I think there's a serious issue with people believing that negative reception to a game is somehow "more honest" than positive reception, and that if someone hates something, they are to be trusted. It leaves little room for honest, dissenting opinion.

My first advice to junior contributors is to STOP using vibe coding for PRs. OSS is always about people more than about code. We don't need more code generated by LLM, we need more people who care.
