Ice cold take: The Batman is very good and while Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne doesn’t stand out it might be the best live-action take on Batman on film

NEW on the Blog: Skill Challenges. You know 'em. Or maybe you think you know 'em. Let's take a look at what they were, and what people thought they were.

Three games came out this year with some improvements to the tech. Let's look at those, too!

Again, I truly *loved* this week’s episode of Heated Rivalry, but IT IS A WISH FULFILLMENT ROMANCE. The success of a gay hockey romance TV show, largely watched by people who are neither hockey players nor hockey fans, is not “proof that the world is ready and all we would do is love you”

Quantic Foundry does legit trustworthy analysis of gamer behaviour, and these survey results are shockingly negative toward genAI, to the point where I’m more hopeful that data driven mobile and AAA backpedals on their uses.

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things.

Here’s a blurb on what I mean:
Some thoughts: When using GenAi as a mood board you don't get sources. This means you deprive yourself from knowledge. You generated a location? You deprived yourself of knowing more about the interesting parts of the world and why things came to be. Generate an armor or costume? You deprived yourself on real world techniques, function, form and history. You generated art inspirations? You deprive yourself of learning about artists from history or lock out living ones from potentially being hired. Ethical issues of using GenAi models aside, one ends up making visuals mood boards devoid of reality and history. With it one deprives themselves from learning about our world and who is living in it, inadvertently making your work weaker, because of how detached it is from our shared human reality and history.

Lindsay’s placeholder text is truly a joy to read, I am blessed by it every day
neomeruru.bsky.social Lindsay @neomeruru.bsky.social · 20d
What real placeholder text looks like:
Spreadsheet. Four cells reading TK TECHNOBABBLE INFODUMP and one response: You speak with great passion! About what, though, I do not know! Screenshot of game code: = ROUND_3 One more round. Add flavor here if it is obvious that the gift will be accepted. * MANIPULATION: It's a guard's salary, Michael. What could it be? The guard is not happy that you've disrespected her lady and her generous compensation. -> RESULT Screenshot of game code. It's just plain text labeling options and results like Choice 1.1, response to Choice 1.1, etc. Screenshot of game code. Among other things, it has the line: Cal's shirtless and his muscles shine in the sun as he lifts things into a wheelbarrow. He never sweats how weird. He really grew into his bones if you know what I mean. That was supposed to sound sexy.
