Idk how many times people are gonna have to say "stop using ai it is literally killing us" before people listen.

No not even as a joke. don't go near this shit.
In Morrow County, healthy adults were coming down with unexplained medical conditions, including diseases that usually afflicted the elderly.

In a survey of 30 homes, at least 25 miscarriages and a half dozen people living with one kidney were reported.

And Brian Fargo and FourZeroTwo, yeah
But though it promised games for free
And mobile ports on your TV

If you don't get that the "yucky porn games" are the gateway to censor further media that YOU personally think is acceptable, you need to get your head out of your ass. They're trying to divide people into smaller groups so their collective power is also smaller. Kill the cop in your head.
Already seeing folks say, "Well, HORSES isn't YUCKY PORN like other games are, so..." which is super frustrating.

Now is NOT the time to be throwing the hentai games you happen not to like under the bus. Your rage should be directly at payment processors.

I’ve had one traditionally published book. No advance. First batch of royalties lasted abt 4 months. I live on a disability pension that covers my rent and a little for utilities. Food is scarce. I get a grant now and then, and when I don’t, it’s very rough.

Meta stole the book to train its LLM.
I know we know this, but authors need to get better at talking about how they actually make their money. Stop pretending it's from the books.

The list of sentences in Chainsaw Man that are "things you could mistake as quotes from Homer Simpson" grows ever larger.
Chainsaw Man is simultaneously worthy of serious discussion for its heartfelt look at society and cycles of abuse and dehumanization, and it's also like, a fantastic nonstop barrage of shitposts

Having words that most people won't know is practically necessary when you have multiple hundreds of equipment and don't want them to all sound the same

but also making up words or assigning an odd one to a seemingly unfitting slot really makes people wonder about an object, which can be good
there is almost no feedback I will reflexively ignore as a game developer but “you shouldn’t name something X because people don’t know that word” is one of them. oh no! You might learn a new word! God forbid you take away a piece of knowledge from a game that’s not a brand of gun or some shit lol

Finding different ways to name 100 different head slot magic items is a staple of fantasy rpg design.
I still remember the joy I felt when I asked you if I could name a hat a "chapeau" and you were all "sure"

It felt like such a triumph at the time

IGN is paying attention to censorship again. Use their momentum, call visa and mastercard, tell them you read the article, ask them why they're censoring legal stuff

reminder that you don't need to know specifics of what's at play. It's often better to sound like a normie

It's funny to see people playing Kirby Air Riders getting a sudden Big Candy and Magnet near the end of a City Trial wondering about their luck, because the game never explicitly says "you're doing bad, here's something to catch up"

Working in games means your answer to the question "If you could do anything you wanted in life, what would it be?" isn't a different career, but the same career in a kinder version of the same industry.
