I spoke with people role-playing ICE raids in video games to help educate people on their rights and what to do in real-life situations. Tonight, they're holding an event in Fortnite www.wired.com/story/activi...

Finally out of early access, News Tower puts you in control of a Depression-era newspaper and makes you immediately question your ethics. It's surprisingly accurate, writes former actual newspaper employee @midimyers.com. www.avclub.com/news-tower-g...

Saw a review that criticized One Last Stop for being focused on a racialized Manic Pixie Dream Girl and yikes what a complete misunderstanding of both the novel and the trope.

Once again, I have to point out how obviously inorganic the entire anti-trans backlash is. A handful of billionaires are astroturfing the whole thing with enormous amounts of cash.
They're actively paying people to complain now...

In my defense, being covered in bits of foliage and smelling like cat pee and (campfire/American Spirits) smoke was one of the main millennial hipster looks back then.
2009-2012 is making a retro comeback and I feel fucking ancient. Wizened. A crone with brambles weaved through her ratty hair who smells like chickens and woodsmoke and a little bit of cat piss.

This same lady made a video panning the entrance of the Blue Zone before the selfie in front of the building. In the video she showed the police presence outside but I don't think it was commentary, just being like "I'm entering"

If you have a pass inside the Blue Zone, at least speak up like this

Please continue making calls to Visa and Mastercard, because they are working alongside conservative legislators to crack down on free speech and expression!

A dual pronged offense requires a dual pronged defense!
#SaveSpeech

starting Nov 1st we're entering the holiday season, which is a big stress point for big businesses like Mastercard and Visa. These Paypros havent stopped cracking down on Adult Content, so we need to jump back into calling them in full force again!

Love taking my dog out for a night pee and walking out to five fucking APD cruisers lined up in the parking lot. It's all local PD and they didn't freak about my being close so I don't think this is ICE, but wtf

Good literary translation requires understanding (language, culture, genre--on both sides of the translation) and an ability to write well. "AI" can't do that. There are no shortcuts. Treat your work and foreign language readers with the respect they deserve. You won't fool anyone with this.

There is straight up no genAI for games industry QA. it does not exist. Anyone claiming otherwise is lying to you. The best it can do is use GPT to populate scripted test plans or do engineering-level unit tests on code simulations. That doesn't cut it for games.
Square Enix wants 70% of its QA work to be handled by generative AI by the end of 2027, in partnership with the University of Tokyo's Matsuo-Iwasawa Laboratory. https://bit.ly/4qKdyQR

I long for the shop simulator game that puts US bills and coins in the correct order. It's *always* backwards and I spent far too much of my life standing at registers to not find it an unfortunate buzzkill.

Jesus, love to live in the only county in Texas that voted against Prop 15. I guess the Texan need to murder trans children was worth writing a constitutional amendment that will fucking obliterate family court custody hearings in perpetuity.
