Vacuum has helped with air quality, but my little Dante has been struggling to breathe still, so we're at the vet now. Still looking for anything anyone can give to help. Got approved for a loan but already spent a lot on vet stuff this weekend

Can confirm. I’ve only worked at one studio where we had AI rammed down our throats and it came directly and solely from the CEO. Everyone else hated it and recognized it as the dreck it was. It’s almost like we should stop letting the worst people run things or something.
"All major game studios are using generative AI" the fact this is a lie aside, the ones that are using it aren't doing so willingly. It's meddling managers and CEOs with no understanding or attachment to game development forcing it on devs who end up not using anything it outputs anyway.

It is a staple mantra in the games industry, "Our pay for [X] is comparable to the industry's average wages," to which I would reply, "when you're raking in record profits, it's pretty lame to justify substandard pay with, 'that's what everyone else does.'"
Even on projects that don’t feature AI, it’s often difficult to justify how little voice actors get paid for work on projects that sell in the millions

So it’s fascinating to see folks say “they were compensated fairly” repeatedly on this occasion where we don’t even have the voice actors credited.
The argument I'm hearing about it is "the voice actors got paid for it so it's all good"

We don't know how much they got paid, or if they get royalties every time those lines get used.

It's a slippery slope being brushed off because "game good"

if Arc Raiders had plagiarized art, would it matter?

Beyond the ethical and quality concerns, why would you want to cut voice actors out of your process? They’re the hot people with media training and a camera presence. You need a Laura Bailey or Neil Newbon out there to do panels or it’s just a bunch of sweaty devs in t shirts and blazers

I had to check to see if this was real. It’s only the start of a tweet, but it’s real.

And the rest of the tweet isn’t better because they’re lying about there being any threat.

This is about the viral video you’ve probably seen with the drive-by pepper spray.

Other speakers also demand Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and CPD Superintendent Larry Snelling take a firmer stand against CPD cooperation with immigration agents.

Chicago Police District Councilor Dion McGill says community members have seen actions from CPD officers that seem to violate the IL TRUST Act, which limits cooperation between state & federal police on immigration enforcement.

"Words like collusion and collaboration are used constantly," he says.

Little Village community organizer Chela Garcia starts the demo by calling out Chicago police for, she says, shielding federal agents as they attempted to detain a minor this weekend.

"Every time police collaborate with ICE, they are not serving us. They are serving a racist agenda," she says.

Make no mistake that many of the Dem girlies who are desperately begging to be accepted by the powers-that-be and run on Zionism and compromise-on-the-Trans-Question would easily be Republicans if only they had been born cis!

Calling bipartisanship, under the most fascist regime this country has ever faced, "bisexuality" is so revolting and crass that it disqualifies you not just from office but from the entire queer community.

Sarah McBride is the platonic ideal of the politician as completely hollowed out husk, no solid ideals except for an orientation toward power at any given moment. Embarrassing but extremely predictable “first representation” moment
