When you singlehandedly tank your company's reputation so hard that your biggest client, who never says an unkind word against anyone, has to get out there and reassure people you aren't coming back

Really sucks to see the Yakuza franchise, a series I would have happily called my favorite for several years, just fumble all the good will it's accumulated and make me - and plenty of others it seems - want nothing to do with it.
I have fond memories but I doubt I'll be returning to Kamurocho.

San Diego Comic-Con will no longer allow AI 'art' to be displayed at their event
"Material created by AI either partially or wholly, is not allowed in the art show"
This follows backlash from artists after SDCC initially indicated AI-generated work would be permitted

The YouTube search is entirely, completely fucking broken. If you search normally, you get nothing but algorithmic slop and unrelated recommendations, including a lot of the same results over and over. Newest, while also barely functional, was one of the few ways to find less viewed videos.

Dell seems to be the first to realise we don't actually care about AI PCs

The extent to which Games Done Quick has helped to steer the larger speedrunning community - one of the most hardcore video game enthusiast subcultures there is - into becoming something so welcoming, inclusive and supportive astonishes me

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

-It was over a decade ago and I don't remember anything
-No comment on what version I'm playing

yeah my IMO is: it's bad to use it, it's bad they left it in, it's good they removed it, it's good they disavow it, and it's entirely justified to have rescinded awards for it. i will continue to talk about clair obscur fondly.

"we did use it when it was new but we didn't like it and never will again" is a great and satisfying answer
