@yozetty.bsky.social is it not '8 bit *presents*' (as in 'Christmas presents', rather than 'presenting')?

Don't think there's a franchise whose appeal I've been bewildered by more than 'Five Nights at Freddy's'.
Looks like absolute wank, and the creator is a fascist. It's insane how it's somehow this cultural juggernaut.

Always stops me cold when I see people on the internet (usually Reddit) using the r-slur.
People really still love using that word, it seems.

My impression of a Kojima fanboy talking about Death Stranding 2:
"There's this GUY, and he's got a CAT grafted to the side of his FACE that helps him PREDICT THE WEATHER. And he drives around in a CAR that's shaped like a TEAPOT. He's called CATFACE-TEAPOT-WEATHERMAN".

"digital asbestos" is fantastic framing.
I'm going to be honest here, I think AI is going to do so much damage to the usable internet that even after it's inevitably crashes out, it's going to take years to disentangle from every space it's polluted, like digital asbestos it's gonna be time consuming effort and likely expensive venture.
I think AI is going to eventually tank in the longterm, but...
the only real way to combat this is single-interest communities. Forums, user comms, etc, with a barrier to entry. They become trustable knowledgebases. It's really the only way forward is to return to what worked best the first time

Every new hit Netflix series is some high concept, mystery-box style thing designed to make viewers feel more intelligent than they actually are, and never manages to sustain intrigue beyond the first season.

When I start a new game, every second that passes without me being able to change the Y axis to 'inverted' is a second closer to me quitting the game entirely.
Having to wait for a cutscene or hunt through menu sections makes it that much worse that 'inverted' isn't the default (which it should be)
