This might suprise you but a situation can have two adjectives at once! There can be an "economically realistic" AND sad day! But when something is making sense economically it's viable for Sweeney, no hard feelings whatsoever.

Everytime you think you've finally understood the level of ignorance the crowd on X is on they go a step further. They are on a plattform of a dude that actively works on taking away human rights and deeply care about a "tortured" algorithm? www.404media.co/someone-tort...

Maybe stop destroying the planet and torturing like all human beings? Maybe stop supporting fashists that put people in torture camps. Maybe stop torturing animals for food?

They have more emphaty for a text completion robot than for the minimum wage worker that pours their coffee every morning. What the fuck? That's a classic case of: If I'd pitched a game where this would be a story element, It would be rejected immediately for being exaggerated.

I'll totally do this in the future! And everybody will be like: "Woooow yellow cake filling, congrats to your... ...game! I was hoping for this genre!" After which I'd reveal that yellow means rhythm-dating-sim and everybody would nod knowingly!

Miss me with baby gender reveal parties, let's have indie game genre reveal parties instead.

there's a pretty simple connection here 1. humans become good at what they practice doing 2. outsourcing to an AI or even other people, means you have stopped doing the thing 3. if you stop doing the thing, you will stop improving, and, long term, get worse at it (cont.)

i really think genai causes actual brain damage. probably faster than most ways you can on purpose give yourself brain damage. and if you hear this statement as literally as i mean it i think it sounds sorta conspiracy nut, but undeniably less conspiracy nut than the apparent sum of its parts

We won #2 for music and #3 for narrative! The genre was something we haven't worked with before so I'm super happy that we made something that people liked! 🩷 #indiedev #gamedev #gamejam

Me and Nema participated in the ARD Pulse Game Jam @itch.io and made an interactive short story about overcoming loss in honour of those who left too early I really hope you like it as much as we liked making it! xeetsh.itch.io/for-good #indiedev #gemedev #noai

I'm scared of everything and haven't seen a horror movie in 10 years but somehow it happened and I went to see #Backrooms It was super scary but so good, especially the story and the set! I probably won't be able to sleep or visit furniture stores in a long time but I also kinda enjoyed it...

I saw Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Live in Concert in Frankfurt yesterday and it was insane! They poured so much heart into the production! Composer Jan Valta conducted the orchestra himself and even played the violin himself for one song! #gamimg #gamedev #orchestra #kcdii #kcd2

Today we mourn the passing of my build server (It handled testing, building and deployment for #GarbageCrew and a lot of other projects). Who would have thought that you shouldn't use a 12 year old SSD for a fairly critical system. #RIP #Watzmann #gamedev #indiedev

@xeetsh.bsky.social

It took me a month but the old build system is now replaced by a nice cluster✨ (ok, a cluster of two tiny PCs but they are cute and super energy efficient) (black unit with the two tiny PCs is the new server/VM host) #gamedev #ci #devops #sysadmin

I own a zipper with the pattern BVG is using in Berlin trains and buses and I love it so much❤️

Tube Mapper- Luke Agbaimoni@tubemapper.bsky.social

I'm a big fan of the moquette patterns that you can find on London Transport, especially underground trains. I enjoy discovering clothing, accessories & even detailed tattoos using these iconic designs. My favourite moquette pattern is probably the Victoria line. What is yours?

Yeah, you could say it like that or you could say "Hardly anyone is favourable towards Gen AI"

Older gamers are generally more favorable to AI-generated content in games than younger gamers, but the majority across all age groups remain negative.

I spent hours walking around reading articles. This is a really cool project that works and feels so close to a real museum! Definitely give it a try!

Great choice of #PayPal forcing me to add Security Questions to my MFA activated account all of a sudden. I bet that makes my account more secure 🙄 Whatever, may I introduce to you my first stuffed animal GSu7RX+ahPhS7QR. It helped me through a lot of tough times back on DJeAdvDgmRpj=myQw3Y street
