@gog.com - do you even understand who your customers are? We buy DRM-free games because we want to support artists, not to see their jobs taken away by companies using stolen asset slop.

I'm pretty confident in my ability to spot most AI music on YouTube, but I don't want to risk giving some talentless hack even a single view. Good to know I can stick with OCR and not have to worry.

If you're on iOS I highly recommend NetNewsWire. For bonus points you can pair it with self-hosted FreshRSS and really maximize those feeds.

BG3 can get back to us after it's provided a decade of free DLC like the No Man's Sky team has done.

The US sure knows how to create a holiday, exploit the hell out of it, then proceed to run it into the ground.

I should have bought more of these in 2024 when they were only $24.99

"AI isn’t just another tech trend.."

Let me stop you right there. Yes, it is, and no amount of forcing this at every opportunity changes the fact that GenAI is built off unethical practices, fueled by environmentally destructive actions, and delivers piss-poor results.
