Guillermo Del Toro dropping another one liner that’s exactly how I feel about AI slop, the “punishment” is built in

I mentioned it in the announcement post but LSD:R is older now than LSD:DE was when the project first started in 2011. I was 14 when I started and I'm 29 now 👴

LSD: Revamped version 1.0 is now available on itch - the game is done! There is also an important announcement about the future of the project. Link below ⬇️

Adding to this: Amazing that they're using a matrix allegory, in which the *red pill* is giving yourself up to the Ai

the use of "wait" here is legit so slimy. tf you mean wait. devs don't wait, they make the fuckin thing. ooooohhh but if you're a dipshit billionaire exec like tim sweeney is now, i guess you do just WAIT for it, huh?

I'm not actually in Next Fest but funny thing about demos is that you can play them any time you want. Which is now. Play I Won't Let You Level Up In My Goblin Town now.

I think my favorite example of gamification in the past 5 years is just IT departments putting fake phishing links in your inbox. I think its a really engaging way to get people to recognize and report phishing

Oh they click the email? Its a safe environment, but we still get to send them a mildly embarrassing email that will dissuade them from doing that again You report it for phishing? You get sent a "Congratulations!" email, and feel really smart, and are encouraged to report future ones

It's crazy to think an MLM based on baskets of all things was big enough to have this But sure enough, around their offices was looked like two entire bus lots to shuttle people to this place?

Last I'll post about this, but Elon Musk disagrees with me. This means I am onto something, and I feel more valid in my opinion than ever.

The ai posters my apartment building kept putting up were getting torn down so often that they gave up and started using clipart instead

Replying to @itch.io

Plus at the bottom of the post a little more info about our upcoming itch donk project.

I know this is delving a little bit into "what-about-ism", but I hate seeing how much boomers complain about taxes, then turn around and talk so much about cars While I haven't don't the math, I'm pretty sure I am forced to spend way more money on my car than taxes

And maybe that's just because my income is low, but like, man Just doing everything vaguely correctly - maintenance, tire rotations, new tires every so often, new battery every so often, oil changes, gas... ...shit sucks man

what do you MEAN the developers of Cookie's Bustle contacted every person who registered their copy by mail 25 years ago and invited them to a secret Cookie's Bustle party with live music and merch???

Modern phones absolutely depress me Girlfriend is looking for a new phone, she did a bunch of research and landed on the Pixel 9 The EQ on the speaker seems to just be like, atrocious, and the fingerprint scanner is in the middle of the screen and makes the screen go to full brightness???

The EQ on the audio is fixable in software but like, that brightness on the fingerprint scanner is unforgiveable, and it's shit I knew they did back on the Pixel 6 and it's a main reason I did not go with that piece of crap

Testing out a new game engine, "Chisel", which aims to be very similar to source in terms of the editor experience. It's really early at the moment, but I love it so far!

had to make a video for this one because it's pretty wild visually. love that you can zoom in and out so far with these vector graphics, neat stuff! (music is unrelated because i couldn't get the in-game music working right and it was pain inducing lol)
