Pretty cool. Much easier than the evil part 2 of yesterday, but in particular the second part today you can really go ham optimizing the check.

One of the few reviews that properly docks score for the AI-(ab)use.

Thanks Eurogamer, can't believe so many let this fly under the radar.
For Arc Raiders to ride the wave of human sociability all the way to the bank, while also being so contemptuous of the thing that makes us social animals in its own workflow demonstrates a lack of artistic integrity that I find impossible to ignore.

"Verified Artist" - WTF, Spotify?! This is AI slop! This "artist" has multiple hundreds of songs, all with the same generic AI generated covers, all with nonsensical titles and "lyrics".

And there's not even a reporting option for it!

Well this is a photo that describes the fascist takeover of the US incredibly well.
Police just detained two protesters.

One dressed as the Statue of the Liberty.

Der einzige Teil dem ich so nicht zustimme ist das mit der Schallplatte: Wenn sich (korrekt) die ~perfekte Qualität der CD nicht zu retten lohnt, dann die eh schlechte und imperfekte Wiedergabe der Schallplatten eh nicht.

Jetbrains, if you understand your generated code is often bad (it is, and frequently so!) then how about you at least *pay* actual programmers for their work, instead of wanting it for free?!

Plus you'll be training on AI-generated code! What'd be the point?

Ich hab da auch einfach keinen Nerv mehr, zu argumentieren. Wer heutzutage im Sommer 2025 noch mit "Ja aber ist der Klimawandel wirklich so schlimm und menschengemacht kommt?!" der wird einfach sozial geblockt und isoliert. Pech gehabt. #klimawandel www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qc-s...

Trying Ludocene some more now that it's publicly available, I honestly don't see what the hype is about.

It's not bad, but also no better than just browsing Steam or so? If I could at least see *who else* recommends this, that'd be nice.

Amazing breakdown of the problem, thanks @charalanahzard.bsky.social !
Here’s my feature on Collective Shout, and their attempts to take down Steam and itch.io. I found a conversation where they spoke about exactly how they did it, and detailed their plans going forward, which sounds… very unrelenting.

This is extra sick then. These folks get huge swathes of games banned, none of which break any law in *most* countries, and can hide behind quick phrases that we (me included) all too often don't want to double-check.

But we ought to, especially with such groups!
So @countesslita.com played No Mercy, the game at the heart of Collective Shout’s complaint to payment processors and the main reason why we’re in the middle of the actual largest censorship wave in video game history and…

It’s a stepmom porn visual novel. That’s it.
