Medieval Islamic medicine had an entire section of study that was dedicated to eye surgery, introducing the words “retina” and “cataract” into science. Then Christianity decided it needed to have a little crusade and set science back by millennia. Sounds familiar 🤔

In the last few weeks i've been bombarded with emails from people who have minor tech support problems. ChatGPT is telling them to email me, writing their emails, and compiling "evidence packets" after convincing them they have stumbled on a major story: www.404media.co/chatgpt-keep...

This is probably the best ad I've seen against using generative AI: Mayer, who was an engineer at Google and a chief executive of Yahoo, has rotted her brain so much she can no longer classify her daughter as "empathetic, creative and an animal lover". The slide of competence is incredible.

cool, cool

Okay cool start with how much the US Army paid Activision to spread war propaganda and make recruitment drives, before then selling to a company who’s actively assisted in genocide and you might have a film that’s worth making

The fact that Tim, even when he was much younger, rebellious, and eager, could already not feel sadness for a beacon of game design & development innovation and creativity going under when he could back smugness with "economically realistic" explains so much of why Epic is where it is right now.

This is a VERY backhanded compliment as their music is always banging - but “Say What” is so on point that I genuinely had a brief panic on stream about getting a copyright flag when Zoe cranked up the volume 😅

This shit just writes itself at this point. Just the name "Epic AI MegaJam" is a joke that best describes what is going on with these companies.

To honor one of the studios that defined PC gaming, we've republished more than 20 articles about BioWare today. The pcgamer.com homepage is dedicated to interviews, retrospectives, and making-ofs about some of the best RPGs of all time.

In 2016, we published potentially the largest single feature to ever appear in Game Informer magazine with a full oral history of the legendary studio, BioWare. We've made that feature available online following reports of the studio's impending closure. gameinformer.com/feature/2026...

[AD/gifted] Was gonna play this on stream but then got ill, so accidentally played the entire thing on my Steam Deck from my sickbed. Would HEARTILY recommend for fans of visual novels and RPGs, I played it as chaotic good but am very tempted to replay soon as a total dickhead.

Sorry if I’ve not gotten back to anyone on emails recently - this is slamming my inbox and most likely any other creator with a public email address. I don’t do Next Fest at this point anyway because it’s overwhelming but oof 😣 And a lot of them AREN’T disclosing in email that they’re AI 😡

If I had MrBeast-level money I’d be angel investing in studios, supplying new creators with setups and supporting grassroots causes with access to fundraising spaces. But don’t worry about that, instead it’s AI balls, shit fiction and business partners who go to Trump rallies.

Same deal with grassroots - we’d get you online and teach you how to stay online. We’d introduce you to sister charities and like-minded creators who value transparency and teamwork. We’d give you a platform to tell your stories and help find graphic artists to make toolkits.

Studios? It would be case by case depending on what they need and what the scope of the project is. Ideally, we’d help find investors to assist with supporting staff. Basically grants to offset the cost of living, which also would help cover healthcare or therapy for them and their families.

On the plus side, the more these jokers do the easier it is to explain why clients shouldn’t touch them with a bargepole. The amount of conversations I’ve had to have about KSI and the Sidemen being risky by association is wild.

I would genuinely be a menace - think 1,000 Dreams Fund but without needing to apply for a specific project. We’d find amazing creators who work from a low budget and we’d approach them to ask what kit they need. We’d help with internet fitting, healthcare or therapy if needed, total packages.

I disavow everyone. Let's work backwards from there. Brotherhoods I avow will be released at a later date. Sisterhoods I avow include the Dixie Chicks, Pointer Sisters, and some Spice Girls.

Or you could have the courage and invention to stop supporting a genocide 🤷‍♀️

Asha Sharma reportedly tells rattled Xbox employees: "We have to find new ways, and courage, to have invention on new IP" https://bit.ly/3WmYfCM

I can’t even BEGIN to get into this either because it’s sounding like more BS marketing speak to get ahead of more studio closures. Maybe if you stopped fucking users and dev teams around, and didn’t do good faith pieces about “helping with support tickets” you’d have more time to innovate lolz

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

Did everyone else miss that he was clearly sending Starlink to Ukraine for internet clout from famous accounts? How are we still surprised several years later?
