sorry you had to see tim sweeney's face on your timeline just now. here's a post to move it down a bit for you

new launcher doesn't even add features Unreal devs have been asking for years. You can't install plugins to versions of the engine not downloaded from the launcher (built from source), and there's no way to manually discover projects to then add Fab assets to them

"We vibe coded a new Epic Games Launcher" because "programming is hard", announce company we're somehow supposed to see as a serious Steam competitor https://bit.ly/4hMHbi5

if vibe coding is so great they should add these features in 2 seconds, surely (i have sent them feedback inside the launcher so if there is literally anyone monitoring it they will know about it)

The Headline people should use. Tim Sweeney confirms that moving to all AI slows down game development

for context, the peak unemployment rate during the great depression was 24.9%. autistic people and even more so young autistic people are going through our own great depression every day yet nobody, not least of all employers, seems to give a shit.

the youth unemployment rate is 10.8% according to the ABS. if the difference in unemployment rate among Gen Z autistic people is the same as all autistic people then the unemployment rate among young autistic people is 63.41%.

absolutely stoked that i gave up my entire social life during all my school years to learn how to build software only for the job market to tell me to go fuck myself

idk what crazy stunt netanyahu is gonna pull at the UNGA but if it's anything like last year we're gonna be in for a good laugh

i just love the concept of this one guy doing crazy shit all year long and then coming to the communal gathering to justify all the shit he's done and failing spectacularly if you care to apply even a little critical thinking

i love how the un keeps the time limit warning lights visible to viewers so you can judge speakers that go over time (there's 2)

what's up with religious astronauts? how can you be a public figure in a scientific field when you unironically think a floating dude is gonna come from the sky one day and that he made everything

ai companies want the benefits of appearing to be open source (community donations, more leniency) without being open source can't have your cake and eat it too

the producer of the EDP445 documentary linking his profile on the social media app that allowed EDP to connect with his victims as the first thing in the description was an interesting choice

tired of being unemployed so i'm gonna start a new animal crossing save in the hopes of being feeling like i have colleagues (villagers) who care about me and we all work towards releasing a product (public works project). endless imaginary debt is just a bonus

best job seeking advice i ever heard for software developers: "IT jobs are hard to get. should've done an arts degree instead."

re: person standing outside Rockstar North eating a leek i dunno which is sadder: these creatures or the troglodytes doing push-ups outside andrew tate’s prison 2026’s alien v. predator

apparently there are people who already have jobs but are applying for new jobs regardless for more money? can you fuck off i am trying to enter the workforce during a recession here

crazy how for trains 37 years and $800 million will get you a proposal that fails but a million flock cameras and acres of data centres can go up in a year lol

love the clip of RFK Jr. shaking uncontrollably. his heroin destroyed brain is fighting for control over his limbs with the worm in said brain. i'm rooting for the worm and when i say worm i mean the actual worm not RFK Jr.

feat. Trump not giving enough of a shit about the country he governs to keep his eyes open and some obviously unqualified staffer with a lacking attention span only there for her looks (strangely small head (???))

i love that these right-wing weirdos continue to try and commit genocide on autistic folk and fail miserably every time. haha, aren't we a tough nut to crack
