Haven looks like a kickstarter scam. There isn't a single bit of it that seems real tbh, even with all these YouTubers talking about it. I'll know it's real, when I can actually see and use it.

The thing that annoys me about Valve's lack of stance regarding AI: is that we lost steam greenlight due to a similar situation where Steam was constantly being flooded with low-quality games that was negatively affecting other indie games; and now they don't want to address the problem at all.

70 percent of the internet was vulnerable yesterday to very bad security flaws inside a coding language. Turns out, *one volunteer* is mostly responsible for maintaining that code & helping push updates. Yesterday Ondřej Surý saved the internet. So I called him up www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

I keep seeing people say that AI will make everyone move to the cloud because many companies don't want their proprietary software easily modded or recompiled, but they seem to mysteriously forget that AI is also being an even bigger catastrophe for any and all online software, so no.

If AI analysis tools can take down half the internet for an entire day or two over an RCE (php2shell), imagine all the problems that would occur if we all suddenly went all-in on cloud solutions. It's not economical or logical by any means, especially with our current trends in tech.

These are empty PR words by Garry, because literally a day before this facepunch kept working on more AI features and made it easier for vibecoders to use S&box officially. Do not trust Garry - I want to make a worse version of Unity - Newman.

Garry Newman (of Garry's Mod and s&box) put out a blogpost recently where he admits to the mistakes he made in s&box and promises to walk them back but this statement in particular hits home. There are quite a few AAA games in particular that NEED to hear this sbox.game/news/rethink...

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854

peeling the skin off my POC gf for liking a post on bluesky that's related to a lovecraft horror fanfic due to the original author having a problematic history with their cat

New Ace Attorney title announced - Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies VR - Announcement Trailer (Coming 2027 for Meta VR Glasses, Meta Quest 3/3S, Quest Pro, and Quest2) www.youtube.com/watch?v=-674...

Online Looter shooters thinking that they're free from being compared to Destiny for a few months, only for Bungie to put the plug back in for discourse revolving around which game is better (it's warframe)

The modern mind's answer to any current or future problems is to tell others not to upset the baby wood-chipper + who own it, instead of asking why did we allow anyone to throw babies into the wood-chipper, and why are we not pushing back against people who profit off babies being thrown into it.

bsky isnt ready for this but, if you need a reason to not use words like "clanker" that isn't "well its kinda not a great thing to do" (it isn't) imagine this: future model that has you in its training data, knows you posted that word online with joy, and denies your insurance claim as a result
