The Mystery Science Theater 3000 cast would have a field day with AI dubs like this — and they're robots.

This is what techbros think the future of entertainment is? This is the worst garbage I've ever heard.
Welp, a second AI dub on Amazon has apparently been found, and it's a show that already had a perfectly normal (albeit non-union) dub: No Game No Life.

Oookay, I wasn’t ready for what it actually sounds like when you turn on the audio. … have a listen. Just try and keep a straight face.

It was Downey who coined the phrase in the LEVERAGE writers room “future episodes do not win out over present episodes”. Trust me, you’ll have more ideas. You’ll die full of them.
WRITING TIP, something simple but it catches many of us out: if you have a great/fun idea for your story, *use it now*.

Don’t save your ideas for some nebulous other story you might write tomorrow. I promise you’ll have more.

Break your story’s status quo. Go a step further. Use the big idea.

Is the Trump admin using ICE to settle family disputes?

This is fucked up.

I've prioritized idiosyncratic floating-cursor aiming in Nightshift over generic rotation-based aiming to allow fixed-cameras and other "curated" arcade-style experiences, differentiating from generic shooters and feeling more "shmuppy".

So, went through character creation with a friend of mine in Skydawn's Phantasy Star TTRPG. The second he saw "Musk Cat" as a playable species he made a talking magical cat with the personality of Roman Pearce from The Fast and the Furious.

This is going to be a loony game when I find more players.

Friendly reminder that dishwashers made after 1995 or so are so water and energy efficient that even if you ran them twice fully loaded it would still use less water than handwashing the same load.

So many "green" things feel like sacrifices. Dishwashers are not one of them.

Zohran Mamdani doesn’t make me, an American Jew, feel unsafe.

Having the Coast Guard, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, decide that a swastika isn’t really a symbol of hate? That makes me, an American Jew, feel pretty damn unsafe.

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."

There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

They lied about it. All of it. A thug cop shot an unarmed woman five times without justification, boasted about it to his colleagues, and then this administration tried cover it all up by arresting her and charging her with felonies.
Absolutely incredible; after shooting Marimar Martinez 5 times and arresting her on claims that she rammed them and pulled a gun, prosecutors have now moved to dismiss ALL criminal charges against her and her codefendant.
New: the govt has moved to dismiss its assault case against Marimar Martinez and Anthony Ian Santos Ruiz, two people accused of "box[ing] in" a Border Patrol vehicle in Chicago on Oct. 4.

One agent shot Martinez, with evidence presented to the court that he later bragged about in text messages.

For every gay person you don't put in your story, I will make three. This will make their relationship dynamics annoyingly complicated, like, "needs a Miro board" complicated, so please think about LGBTQ+ representation.

Updated the 'Falgue family's Nimble stats. Believe it or not I wrote lore for these irritating creatures, too. I'll figure out a way to share that later, but I'm feeling a little more pleased now.
