1st #promosky despite joining in 2023 I am CFB or Luke/Lucas, 38, he/him Software dev & twitch streamer 💣Fandoms: Pokémon, Zelda, Metroid, RPGs, Retro, Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Horror, Marvel 💣Music: Rock, Hip Hop, Industrial, Grunge, EDM, Vinyl 💣Follow for: Vulgarity, Bad Vibes, Social Justice

Yeah, Epic, get Unreal Tournament 26 in development so we can put the Ariana Grande skins in it, and Sonic can hit the griddy after flag caps. Tom Holland saying "monster kill" announcer pack 1200 Fragbucks on the shop. UT x FF7 just announced

unreal tournament died for this

Patched all my installs of PHP and Node. New remote code execution vulnerabilities afoot, so do the same ASAP if you use em. This is likely going to be a problem for the foreseeable future with the huge amount of the sites and servers on the internet still running ancient versions.

New Castlevania dropped last night, and I've already racked up six hours. Quick thoughts: Visually excellent, there is so little music and it gets old quick, shit is balls hard, and lastly not a complaint but it is VERY apparent you are playing more of a Hollow Knight in Dead Cells engine (same dev)

I guess to elaborate on that last part since I hit the char limit - if you're looking for more of a Symphony of the Dawn of Portrait of the Moon or Whatever in terms of gameplay, you might be out of luck. This has some Soulsy elements. I wish it didn't, but I am still certainly enjoying my time.

Also this just made me remember how much Dead Cells rules and I haven't touched it in like 7 years or whatever when it was unfinished and now I just want to reinstall, and there was a whole ass Castlevania DLC for it before this was a thing!

I understand that I am not for everyone, and realistically that is one of my strengths, but it sure would be nice as an autistic to understand *why* sometimes - especially when it's someone you consider a friend who just up and dips with zero explanation, like fuck you too, I guess

Turn off your fucking midroll ads!! (you have been tricked by twitch into believing that disabling prerolls will significantly affect growth and I am going insane sitting through the pauses in conversation and gameplay which people paid to subscribe to avoid in the first place what the actual fuck)

Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal is the best gen because there is an internal clock that plunges all pixels into darkness every night, but it is also simultaneously the worst gen for making literally every random 2-mon street corner chucklefuck beg for my phone number

Not so friendly reminder that Crazy Taxi World Tour is openly using generative AI for assets. If a streamer is participating in the network beta, then they support this garbage, full stop/slop

Got sick of Instagram reels never embedding properly in Discord and watching the url fixes (kkinstagram, etc) constantly fail, so I programmed my bot to ask if the sender of a recognized url wants the embed to be fixed, then calls yt-dlp to temporarily save the videos and edits it into the reply 😌🖕

Just in case you haven't heard it from anyone else yet: Fuck ModRetro. Don't buy their shit. Fuck Palmer Lucky, fuck military contractors, fuck GameStop for carrying this bullshit, and fuck the lemmings who buy the Game Boys made from *attack drone metal.* Eat the biggest of turds, all of you.

This shit is why you can't separate continuing to financially support the Harry Potter IP (whether by buying the games, merch, watching the new TV show when its out) from the consequences of what JK Rowling does with that money She's become so stiflingly powerful that even private docs arent safe

It's too bad there really aren't any twitch alternatives. Kick is a cesspool, YouTube has been playing the same gen AI game for a while now, and every other startup seems to crash and burn in their first year.

There really needs to be an open protocol like AT Proto (bsky) and ActivityPub (Mastodon/threads) but for broadcasting. That's probably the ticket. OBS can already handle transcoding on the streamer's end now too

"If it was opt-in, nobody would opt in" Yeah man that's the fucking point we're trying to make dumb fuck

TQ 🌿@witchytq.bsky.social

they know we don't want it. they do not care.

The way people glaze on Goldeneye 64 30 years later is so strange to me. Everything about it has aged like raccoon milk compared to a contemporary like Quake that did it first. I usually don't like to play the nostalgia card, but split screen really does have people convinced it was quintessential.

Maybe a hot take, but programming is an art and therefore was ruined by AI the same way that creative writing, visual mediums, music, and gaming were.

I honestly don't know how I'm supposed to see a viable professional future as someone with a degree in Software Engineering when I morally object to generative AI on grounds of creative theft and environmental harm. I also didn't formally train in the skill for years just to babysit Claude.
