the idea that lots of gamedevs are secretly using ai is booster bullshit
what on earth would I use genAI tools for? Coming up with ideas? Writing? It’s shit at those
making 3D models? Coding stuff? It’s shit at that too
oh but it’s faster maybe? Did I mention it’s shit at things?
seems important

This is a borderline unforgivable amount of draw distance pop-in for a Katamari game. If I don’t SEE objects in the distance, I’m not going to go over there!

Target has employees? Then why does nothing happen when I press the button to unlock the shelf with the hand sanitizers?
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.
