I'm thinking I'm gonna have to start writing my own suite of stream tools. Doesn't look like I can have Twitch, YouTube and Altstream all in one convenient little chat window/overlay

Oh, cool, followed a Resident Evil speed/challenge runner because he did cool shit And he's streaming himself vibecoding a mod. In the bin with you.

ABBOTT: Japanese developers today have unique names, like FromSoftware COSTELLO: From what ABBOTT: FromSoftware COSTELLO: I thought you said it was from Japan ABBOTT: It is COSTELLO: But what's the name of the developer ABBOTT: FromSoftware COSTELLO: The Software's From Japan, though ABBOTT: Yes

Kinda hate how all the AI slop uses the Yakuza font now. At least it makes it easy to identify which YouTube channels to not watch.

You: "Surely this is some kind of over the top, slanderous joke post" Nope, this is Real, you can easily find it being quoted on the beyondunreal forums in a post from the 26th of may of 2000, for example. The man has always been an irredeemable, inhuman monster.

So, I see a lot of people out there reaching for chromatic aberration when they need a quick and dirty CRT/NTSC/Composite vibe on their games/videos, and I wanted to offer some advice: The color bleed you're looking for isn't CA (left), it's chroma blur (right). 1/6

an outdated system in a salmon farm using PHP was found to have been breached, allowing the attackers to perform remote cod execution

I'm trying to not be all doom and gloom about this shit, but it's not easy to be positive about the cancerous growth on the games industry that is AAA.

I already know I'm not getting the next Xbox because I'm sure by the time it comes out, it'll be beyond affordable, there'll be barely any studios making things interesting, and that BDS boycott will still be relevant. I won't be getting a PS6 because the PS5 doesn't even have any games on it

PC gaming is only getting more expensive; games cost more, hardware costs an absurd amount and my PC is already struggling with the newest titles. Indie titles are great, but who's funding them? Nintendo is anti-consumer as shit, but at least they still make games at this point

"i sold a number of games that someone would use it as a cryptographic key" used to mean something.

Joe Wintergreen@joewintergreen.com

on this point in particular: egs sales are so bad it's common for devs to share and compare out of disbelief, and often what you find is quite popular games are selling only in the double or triple digits of copies last i checked, my game had sold (drum roll please) five

eBay users! Don't ignore today's email, even though it looks like a boring standard update to the User Privacy Notice. They want to use your data to train AI models. If you click the link over the words "the right to object", it takes you to a page with a toggle button letting you opt out.

Pleas keep sharing this if you can. We’re desperate and really struggling and I don’t know what to do. We have to go through an appeals process for my PIP and Sophie’s tribunal should be soon. It’s so much when I can barely even walk most days.

Yesterday marked 3 months behind on rent. We have been trying our best, and support so far has helped us not slide further behind but our landlord is getting upset with us. We need £2,900 to break even on it. Please, any help is appreciated. We’re trying. ko-fi.com/foxtrotluna/...

I do not fucking understand how the hell you go from pushing the limits of technology in the 90s with Unreal, defining games development with Unreal Engine, to shoving your head entirely up your own ass and attacking a fixture like Kenney over AI slop. Fuck Tim Sweeney and all these rancid bnaires

I cannot overstate what Unreal means to me. I grew up playing Unreal Tournament. The castle fly-through in the opening for OG Unreal lives rent-free in my head. Finding Unreal Editor in the files and opening it for the first time was a literal life-defining choice. Fucking sickening.

I'm writing a mod in C# and it's reporting a warning on line 3 of a file but the warning is blank for some reason so the "problems" overview just looks like this
