Name a bad video game. One that doesn't always get talked about on YouTube and that. One that tends to slip through the cracks.

Serious answer only.

Its wild that "The American president is a fascist paedophile sex offender with dementia who soils himself in public" is an accurate sentence. And its like a sizable portion of the population is OK with that?

I wish the world was not so mean and stupid

We don’t use generative AI at Strange Scaffold and I can confirm that a *lot* of other studios are not—whether indie or AAA.

Get outta here with this normalization bullshit.

I'm on a VPN right now as I post this.

Not because I wish to view porn or get up to illicit activities, but because I require it to connect to my organisation's network.

Will they be able to tell the difference with this tech? Doubtful
The British government admits it is now monitoring VPNs use by UK residents. Regulator Ofcom has contracted with an AI-powered surveillance service to detect the number of citizens using VPNs to evade the Online Safety Act.

The UK tech minister has said a VPN ban is on the table.
Exclusive: Ofcom is monitoring VPNs following Online Safety Act. Here's how
Ignoring VPNs risks creating ineffective laws, but tracking them threatens people's privacy

Just watched this excellent video talking to the workers at the protest outside Rockstar and examining the details of the firing and the alledged union busting.

It would appear Rockstar beleive even if they have to pay fines it'd be worth it to be rid of the union.

We should not buy GTA 6 next Nov
I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct.

That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting.

sort of incredible to read a review that doesn't just made a vague nod at AI being bad, but actively reckons with the ways in which falling obsessively to AI usage actively obliterates the artistic intent and integrity of the work you've made.

Huh, I was pleased to see BBC Director General Tim Davie and CEO of News Deborah Turness resigned last night. Both were Tory appointed so I was like "oh could this be the beginning of the end of the right wing rot within the BBC"

Then I saw the accusations that have done them in

The successor to GZDoom is out now, after GZDoom's lead developer decided to start 'vibe coding' with AI.

For those worried, this should perform EXACTLY the same as GZDoom. Probably better, and with improving compatibility as there's more people actively working on it and listening to the community
The pre-release for UZDoom's debut is here! If you'd like to help us test UZDoom in preparation for 4.14.3 grab the build here: github.com/UZDoom/UZDoo... (expand the Assets tab)

(Windows and Linux available; Mac coming later)

Read the details here: zdoom.org/wiki/UZDoom_...

Isn't it convenient that by firing 34 union members, that takes the union under the threshold where Rockstar have to legally recognise them?
