Watching the Bombathon (been busy) and yelling at Mike playing Escape Academy. Heh. Sorry @tolkoto.com

grubb lays is out pretty well here but i will say for my part: fuck palmer lucky fuck modretro fuck argonaut and fuck mouthpieces for fascism like retro dodo and any other bag-getter that promotes this shit

I so rarely go to a doctor, I've gotta be in a pretty bad way before I feel it's necessary. I went Friday, and was given some antibiotics. Now I'm going back today because I'm having a quite painful side effect from the antibiotics. This sucks, man.

This is a great review of a thing that shouldn't exist.

I have done this in the past and its really rewarding. I went with an off the shelf mini PC and ran OPNsense in Proxmox but you can basically do this with any old PC, and really lightweight hardware or a compatible router if you run OpenWRT. aftermath.site/opnsense-pro...

The long-serving strongman leader of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, has conceded defeat in an election that pitted him and his right-wing party against a diverse student-led opposition movement that spent two years protesting his government.

The Roottrees are Dead is really cool. I was up way too late playing it. Finished the main game, got the second part left to do. If you haven't played it, and enjoy Obra Dinn or Golden Idol, do yourself a favour. I also finished up TR-49. That was quite good too.

Didn’t think this was a hot take but I don’t think BioWare made a game even remotely bad enough to “justify” it being shut down “BioWare was struggling for years,” yeah, and even its worst games weren’t as bad as some garbage that’s let slide and it’s fucking weird to imply the team “deserved” this.

Not the top Steam review of Dressmaker making me cry this morning!

uhh dude they just doxxed you on the ghostbusters wiki ghostbusters.fandom.com/wiki/Dweeb_R...

Love to see it.

it's been a decade since I played a COD campaign and out of interest I decided to give MW4 a go and... I'm not sure what to say. US devs got away with a certain amount of myopic jingoism in the 2000's, but the evil "othering" in this game is out of this fucking world. I've been appalled for 2 hours.

CAT VALENTE ON A WRITING TEAM DOING A SPY THRILLER FOR MASS EFFECT. THIS IS WHAT THEY TOOK FROM US. WE DO NOT HATE THEM ENOUGH.

"This is such bad news, such a devastating historic event all I can say is that it's utter bullshit. Anyone who participated in this travesty should be ashamed."

I think I need to finally start paying the Mass Effect Legendary Edition. I bought it ages ago, but haven't started it.

Look what they took from us.

I am extremely proud to present my new art book! Available right now online and I will have them available in person at Lightbox Expo this weekend, table 637. More than double the size of my last art books its packed to the brim with extremely cool stuff. rjpalmerstore.com/collections/...

I think my favourite part of this nonsense is the audience looking tense while people name shit in pictures.

Ever fucking green

before you get mad at me please stop and think about how that would make me feel

what exactly DOES happen to materials from a major studio that’s closed? where do physical hard drives, documents, etc go? who maintains all this pointless secrecy? if you know or have stories, get in touch: nathan@aftermath.site, nathangrayson.666 (signal), aftermathdotsite@proton.me (proton mail)

The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

Can't imagine working at Xbox right now knowing that there are not one, not two, but three already planned layoff waves through the holidays and into the new year. This is terrible management.

It is the Year Of Our Lord Two Thousand Twenty-Six, and I just got a video game magazine delivered to my house: aftermath.site/continue-video...

I’m thrilled to announce Final Fantasy Resonance is terrific, and devastated to announce Vaan is one of the most useful visions in the game. Thanks to GI for letting me review it! ❤️❤️❤️

This shit is so cool. They took away being able to afford computers for this shit.

Is the Bluesky app even less stable than normal for everyone now? I see "error loading post" all the time.

working on a 1 bit detective game where you can write letters to anyone in an outback town to solve a mystery. #indiegame #gamedev

About 11 hours left to pick this up

WHEW JESUS BARS BARS BARS BARS BARS

Penguin Colony finished. Outstanding work once again from the Origame team (check out Umarangi Generation!). Stay for the credits. I won't spoil anything else beyond noting that this message alone is reason enough to give the game your time.

Why do we keep on doing this? Praising a 'small core team' for a game with 1100+ people in the credits is incredibly misleading. This PR narrative hurts, hides the massive shadow workforce of outsourced developers and testers, and sets impossible standards for actual indie teams.

The fact that we have to be afraid to market our games because of AI theft is a condemnation of every executive who has pushed for this cancer in our industry and art form. www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

I drove towards the local airfield and saw a big row of tents. Wondered what was going on. Get closer, and see all the tents said One Nation. Ugh. Guy by the road is waving at me. I flipped him off. Fuck off, racists.

Absolutely repugnant behavior.

I've switched tactics from calling "llms are sentient beings" nitwits stupid to agreeing with them and saying "yeah!! Furbies too!!!" and they get so much madder lmao

My three year old on the trampoline doing the Mike F meme. Just without the motherfucker bit.
