It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

truthfully i have no feelings towards bioware's games. i'm not going to pretend i do. i haven't played them enough to have an attachment what i do have an attachment to is the livelihoods these layoffs are destroying, and the undeniable queer presence in bioware games all gone. and for what

i think the games industry should have studios that exist

A game that was well on its way to my 2026 goty list turns out is using AI. There was no steam disclosure, and the explanation has big "we didn't use it for the things we care about" energy that we gotta stop doing, man Generative AI is truly a radioactive thing that poisons everything it touches

"dont worry, we didn't use LLMs for real art, like writing, or graphics, or sound, we only used it for dumb gross useless basic shit like programming" always the funnest thing to read as a programmer, as someone whose whole career is based on code, whose handwritten library changed the industry etc

sorry, code is fucking beautiful. its fucking magical i can type words in the thing and fucking TRIANGLES just appear ? oops i typed it wrong and the triangles did something i didn't EXPECT ?? now weird shit is happening ?? this is the best shit of all time. i was born to fight the computer

I like seeing the dev of the SNES core on the Pocket actually telling one of these dudes off. Holy shit.

give me wax heads vinyl or give me death

🔥🔥🔥BIG NEWS!!!🔥🔥🔥 Wax Heads is getting a limited edition physical release on Switch from @superraregames.bsky.social AAAAAND they're also doing a vinyl of the soundtrack - we're gonna have @ginaloughlin.bsky.social beautiful soundtrack pressed in wax! Arghhhh!!! 8th October!!!

I frequently see "AI" boosters implying that LLMs are simply an innate and superior part of coding now, inescapable, and that literally all programmers agree with them. And, well. That, too, is a form of propaganda

I wrote a little piece about the ongoing battle for the soul of software as a craft, where we've been, and where I hope we're going

kids this is why you don't wake up at 1am and check your phone

everything about the jacob geller allegations is deeply upsetting and traumatising, from the details themselves to their being publicised on twitter by third party texts seemingly without any consultation with the victim to the armchair detective posting that followed

reddit got a lot worse when they added the ability to hide your posts from your profile and you can no longer do a gooner check on someone with a bad comment

Aw you need AI to write code or fix bugs for you? You need AI to write for you? You need computer to come up with your ideas? 🥺 What a shame your skills and knowledge are so woefully lacking that the mediocre output of AI seems good to you.

streets are calling it the most generational monkeys paw curl of all time

imagine being an established art team at an award winning studio and one day they trot in a guy who cheerfully says he's gonna Implant AI Tools Into Your Existing Workflow and Build an AI Art Pipeline. no matter how professional they remain, with craft gone your art team is gonna mentally check out

Fine, I'll do it myself.

"bluesky is too much politics and not enough whimsy" brother just POST the whimsy and follow people who wax whimsical people have forgotten you can just do the thing
