I was working in the lab late one night When my eyes beheld an eerie sight For my laptop did complain it had no room And suddenly, to avoid such doom (I cleared the cache) I cleared the monster cache (The monster cache) And then I emptied Trash (I cleared the cache) The goddamn cookie stash…

yeh tbh if AI is so great you should be proud of it, you should disclose it everywhere and put a bunch of stickers yourself that you used it for your project showing everyone how cool and cutting edge you are, no? like, it's the future right? you love it right??

This tells me Polymarket should have all of its money taken away and given to the peoples whose lives it ruined, as the company is dismantled piece by piece in front of the founders.

I was at an AEW dynamite show where they decided last minute to film an episode of collision afterwards, and cobbled it together with whoever they had because there was a storm coming in and Tony Khan thought it might be difficult for his talent to travel in.

inventor of the blu-ray and blu-ray player has discontinued their industry leading product, the blu-ray

This. It's why so many folks who work in tech openly shit on vibe coders. They're so proud of their ignorance, and are unwilling to even entertain the idea that their fancy, theft-driven autocorrect is putting out garbage code for an instant because "it works and it did it FAST".

My favorite BioWare memory isn't a game, it's interviewing the Doctors at GDC 2008. Rather than talk up their own work, they wanted to gush about Eternal Sonata—how someone turned their Chopin obsession into an RPG. Their excitement over using games for personal expression seems extra poignant today

Part of my literal job is to fly out to physical game studios to rescue and recover historical materials that might be endangered and put them in a permanent archive. @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social is a 501(c)3 publicly funded to do that, my DMs are open, and I'm free for the next couple weeks...

the longer you exist in the world and listen to people telling stories, the more easily you will be able to recognize when someone is leaving out vital information because it makes them sound bad, and the more jarring it becomes when other people somehow don't notice

It feels like the evil that was possessing Konami over the last decade has finally been expelled from it, only for it to infect everyone else.

It's not enough for weirdo mail carriers who like Quest 64 to say "I'm not playing games with GenAI in them" *Streamers need to stop playing them & mods made with AI *Review outlets need to stop giving them coverage and accepting codes and PUBLICLY SAY WHY *Modders need to stop using the AI tools

If you build a flying car and it’s not this, you’re doing it wrong…

The British Fantasy Society does not allow the use of generative AI in any of its spaces. For more on this, read the interview with outgoing chair Shona Kinsella from earlier this year. This position has not changed since last week's AGM. ⬇️ britishfantasysociety.org/its-a-cheat-...

It's exhausting. We have the heads of GenAI companies on record calling their shit "the greatest theft of human labor in history" and here's a major writer's union saying "some theft is okay, as a treat. 🫠" Make it make sense

They sure liked "pushing agendas" and going to courts and talking with senators when they thought they were losing money to Napster.

This Cartoon Network leak and the reactions surrounding it really prove the same thing that Disney Channel leak made clear years ago. People WANT to see the creative process behind works. People WANT concept art, series bibles, character outlines, etc. They don't want AI to churn stuff out.

So Danny Trejo was manipulated and tricked into being in Ben Shapiro's newest film. Holy shit.

One recurring concern over generative AI is its high energy consumption and environmental impact So I asked Unity's CEO if the company's Spark game dev program will show the carbon footprint of requests made to its AI agents He said: “We hadn’t considered that. That’s something worth considering”

Last day of work before an extended weekend off, already planning my Dr. Pepper consumption

Spend time with your fucking children, you fucking weirdos! (This is directed at Mr. AI Brain, not the OP)

no shortage of AI slop these days, but i think "the creators of dizzy are coming back to make a new game and it's AI slop" has me gobsmacked more than anything else. dizzy? fucking dizzy? you can't draw a fucking 8-bit egg on your own anymore? and you willingly admit this??

According to MIT News, Margaret Hamilton died at the age of 90. "A profoundly influential computer scientist best known for leading the software engineering team at MIT’s Instrumentation Lab during NASA’s Apollo program". This famous photo 🔽 inspired the For All Mankind character Margo Madison.

Kirby Adventure Redrawn! @retroredrawn.bsky.social

I like seeing the dev of the SNES core on the Pocket actually telling one of these dudes off. Holy shit.

PBS launched #OTD in 1970. A life-changing moment for many of us. #PBS

You should be asking why Rockstar gets to do this and doesn't run into any issues with payment processors, while the rest of anyone drawing or writing "explicit content" on any platform have so much trouble getting paid

Every single fucking day, my inbox looks like this in the morning:

Something AI is responsible for that doesn't get enough talk: How, when it scrapes a website to illegally steal everything on it, it uses up a ton of its bandwidth allotment, crashing it or racking up massive fees for site owners.
