I'll never admit it on LinkedIn, but in truth, after 2 and a half years unemployed, and 2 months living with my mother, I actually am desperate for work.

Strangest gaming time of my life was the early 2000s.
The GBA was the latest handheld, Neo-Geo was still getting new arcade games, but both platforms were already easy to emulate on PC. No copy protection to speak of.
Between emulation and demo discs, I was eating fat in gaming as a child.

The other day, I was wondering why Crunchyroll was teasing season 6 of Hitori no Shita when seasons 2 through 5 were missing. I was also wondering why Kingdom only had 5 episodes available.
Now, all the stuff that was missing is present. Okay then!

My exception to this rule, other than posts that would be fine here, was reporters, but man are they going out of their way to get me to see that damn video. Maybe I'll actually not get any news from social media anymore, after all
I'm gonna start muting accounts that put shitty posts from other social media platforms on here. I'm away from those places for a reason, damn it

Last time I read about how nations are probably already doing turnkey things with current tech, was a book on turnkey mass surveillance released about 6 months before the Snowden leaks. Food for thought

I have to say, especially when it comes to images of folks I have little experience with, the "how can you tell it's AI?" answers have ultimately boiled down to "does what I'm seeing make any real sense?"
This video, viewed millions of times on TikTok, Facebook and X, claims to show Venezuelans taking to the street to thank the US for detaining Maduro.
But the video is a combination of four AI-generated clips and was first posted on TikTok by a user who frequently shares AI videos. It's not real.

The Trump admin cut many soft power initiatives last year, moving away from USAID, USAGM etc.
The new soft power push is via unregulated and unmoderated generative AI, social media, podcasts & digital platforms owned by US oligarchs.
It's driven by algorithms and engagement based incentives.

A recent Ninja Gaiden 2 (vanilla) review got me wanting to try that series out again, so I installed Ninja Gaiden 3 Razor's Edge. Been playing on Easy mode.
This whole time I'm thinking how it's a sweet spot of difficulty, I almost die but lock in and finish each fight, each boss, first try.

As someone broke enough to have done quite a lot of Doordashing and Ubering, this post does not read like fiction to me at all. It's very much a spend $20 to earn $23.50 sort of gig. They just try to keep you from realizing it.

In New Super Mario Bros. Wii, if you ever trigger the appearance of a super block on any level, even if you don't use it, it marks your title screen permanently
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago
so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

It's embarrassing, but I realized this week that my video card settings were all wrong. "Power management mode" was set to Normal instead of Prefer maximum performance.
I have literally *doubled* my frame rate in every game I play and I am equal parts gobsmacked and pissed about it

Allan Lichtman's analysis when Harris became the nominee was that the incumbent party has never ran a non-incumbent candidate and won the presidency, and he was sweating at that time, even though technically not enough Keys had turned towards an incumbent party loss.

BREAKING: The Democratic National Committee will NOT release its long-awaited autopsy on Trump's 2024 win. The report is completed but Dem leaders decided it could distract from their winning streak, so it will remain secret. Not good.
