So I just woke up and my mom is offering to take me Christmas shopping (which means I don't have to drive WHOO!) So I'm not doing a stream. Happy holidays and all that jazz, though they fuck with my stream schedule lol

Oh cool, a feature no one asked for that helps no one and just collects personal data.

Why are these apps so obsessed with adding crap no one wants??
v1.112 is live!

We’re launching Find Friends, a contact import feature that helps you find people you know on Bluesky.

Try it! In the mobile app, go to Settings → Find friends from contacts.

Read how we took a more secure approach to this than other platforms: bsky.social/about/blog/1...

#BaldursGate3 was my first ever #Larian game. Guess it's the last one too.
NEW: I spoke to Larian boss Swen Vincke about their ambitions for their new RPG Divinity, cutting down development time, pressures from Baldur's Gate 3, why BG3 wouldn't have happened without Tencent, how Larian uses generative AI, and much more www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Internet People: No they won't, you're overreacting.

Just reminding everyone that we watched anime before Crunchyroll and Amazon Video existed.

Yeah, that stuff didn't go away and its arguably a better value vs the AI bullshit they're trying now
