Trick or Treat....!

Ai, cure cancer or shhhh.

I'm sorry, were Apple and co really expecting the Duo to NOT have the same issues every other folding phone screen has had?

It looks like Xbox is gearing up to finally start bringing achievments to original Xbox games ⤵️

multicoin blocks in super mario bros. were a bug that got turned into a feature (source:https://shmuplations.com/miyamoto2000/)

The wildest one of these I got was a three PDF "press release" rollout from someone who said his ChatGPT sometimes got something wrong and that OpenAI didn't respond to his support ticket and fashioned himself as a kind of big tech whistleblower

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...

Wait a minute. How could Sharma do this??

Literally everyone, every day: "Netflix is a cancer, everything they touch is trash, all they release is shit" Fanboys today: "WOW another major Xbox management failure, they can't even get their movies right, how can they pass on an incredible deal LOL"

Fucking hell.

This is absolutely fantastic. (Also Firefox has been my main browser forever, which is nice) youtu.be/E2AoYIKwJqM?...

Fucking AI slop board games

The important thing that 100% of people are ignoring, for obvious reasons, is... "UPDATE: Xbox responds, and source familiar with the situation alleges Chiang was terminated for "policy violations"."

😂 Americans are ridiculous www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

Obama mocking Trump, "He’s got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened up a Cheesecake Factory" My view: Trump sees grandeur as a statement of power. Obama made the whole thing sound ridiculous in one line.

Nailed it.

Haha, no. Xbox changing my wallpaper to advertise COD? Absolutely not. Switched that "feature" off immediately.

Ugh Fallout Shelter: The Experiment is just some bullshit overproduced fake reality game show, right? Fuck all the way off.

A year later and probably 20,000 updates and Rocket League still hasn't resolved the "You are now online! Connect with friends!" bullshit notification that pops up every 10 seconds in split screen.

i thought about this old tweet tonight and how nothing has ever aged better

So now that script kiddie vibe coders are using AI to hack stuff easier and faster than ever, they're going to use it to prove that Donald J Trump is a pedophile, right?

HD-DVD has the chance to do the funniest thing

This is getting really bad, just trying to figure out which game came first is like finding a, well, you know.

It will finally answer the question we all have: What happens outside of a football arena?

Limited edition controller for a game that hasn't had a release in 4 years and has nothing on the Horizon? (pun massively intended 😉)

Valve have always had some form of prototype in the works forever. This means nothing for any impending announce or release.

"Trump has accused Democrats of threatening the country’s economy with socialism. Yet his administration has managed to wreck the country’s finances worse than any government in US history, without the excuse of an economic crisis or a successful major war." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

with sloppy (but convincing enough) AI vibeclones on the rise, developers now face a future in which a steady stream of pre-release videos, demos, and playtests—the only reliable way to promote and build community—could be their game’s undoing

I can't say I'm surprised about Bioware, not only because of their output over the last decade but also their new owners. Still sucks.

because it is relevant to my work, I have tried very hard to educate myself on how AI works, be fair and measured in how I evaluate it, and regularly test new tools to confirm or debunk my priors and tbh AI haters are just nailing it with less work like 99% of the time. keep at it folks

The internet is so horny for Microsoft selling Xbox. It isn't happening, put your penis away.

"A joyous spectre-cal that welcomes newbies and takes surprising turns yet still offers a hug to fans." Beloved BBC sitcom Ghosts heads to the big screen with The Possession Of Button House — in UK cinemas Friday. Read the Empire review: www.empireonline.com/movies...

Lego Piece of the Week: Lego Cup of #IrnBru

One widely loathed, ketamine-addicted, white-supremacist billionaire can single-handedly keep a failing political party afloat, through the brute force of money. Excellent system we've set up here.

It’s taking a long time for people to wake up to the fact that these platforms are not public forums but privately owned companies with terrible agendas and total control. If you lay down with these dogs…

Why not the White House?

Managing games and storage space is still clunky and unreliable on Series X... Highlighted a bunch of games, hit uninstall, confirmed... Endless spinner. Switch to my queue, nothing happening. Lovely.
