amazing work from rockstar lmao, firing 31 workers for union busting and then delaying their stupid game. nice one fuckwits www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...
Rockstar faces legal action from UK union after firing more than 30 employees last week: 'We are confident that what we’ve seen here is plain and simple union busting'
The IWGB union says Rockstar has refused to meet with it to negotiate, so it's time to get the courts involved.

Learned last night that Rockstar Edinburgh, Lincoln and Dundee were all caught in the union-busting layoffs, but thankfully the more senior staff are speaking out against it internally with others checking out work early. Now the issue is being raised in parliament.
Video game giant Rockstar has sacked more than 30 workers across the UK, including my constituents working at their Edinburgh office. I urged Ministers to support workers who have lost their jobs, and stop this from happening again.

Glad to see Polygon cover the resistance of game developers to generative AI--and to be able to speak briefly to one of the greatest dangers of this entire thing.

Gen AI doubles down on making MORE SPACE for production issues that *already make games worse.*

If you are thinking "it isn't fair that they have a 4 day work week and I don't" you are right! Fix that problem by forming a union and bargaining for what you need.
WE WON! After 42 days of striking we have a tentative agreement in hand that protects our existing 4 day work week, establishes a minimum salary, and adds protections against AI replacing jobs at our workplace!

For decades, schools have taught children the strategies of struggling readers, using a theory about reading that cognitive scientists have repeatedly debunked. And many teachers and parents don't kno...

this is also something i learned in the last week!!!! most food pantries can get crazy good deals on bulk goods and produce, so donating money directly goes a lot further than bringing in a few cans <3
spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"

Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice.

They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.

I've set up a page on my website where you can now download all of my old fanzines for free if you like. If you enjoy them, you can leave a tip and it is much appreciated! But I'm mostly just happy that they can be available somewhere again.

I can't wait to see all of my mutuals that play Fortnite regularly to not touch the game for the entirety of the season in solidarity of all of their trans homies! It's so nice knowing so many people that aren't just allies when it's convenient for them! 🙂💖
