On Monday 04.11.2025 I uninstalled Microsoft Copilot from one of my test PCs with Windows 11. After restarting that PC on that same day, it REINSTALLED ITSELF again. Listen Microsoft - when I uninstall something from my PC it means I do not want it. Trash tier OS with this stuff.

I had my anxiety largely under control when I started my job because I felt like I had my life together. Lately though, it's been coming back and I've been having more and more panic attacks. The worst is while I'm trying to settle in to sleep so I'm losing sleep literally over it. 🤕🫩

Remember, "The game was optimized for console" translates to "The devs carefully selected specific lower settings for the game".

There is no magic, YOU control the settings you set.

Some of the settings for Doom the Dark Ages, RDR2, etc on Console are the lowest ones on PC. Experiment!

Worried that weekends soon won't be enough to reset my weekly "mental health". The weeks lately keep ending in total burnout where I don't want to do *anything* once I clock out of work by Friday. Just end up tired and irritable. Not sure what I can do about it.

I think I need to take a vacation?

The US banned the sale of certain GPUs and chips to China because of a "national security threat".

Now the US wants to sell those GPUs and chips to China, but China is refusing to buy them.

This means "China is straining relations and is an adversary"

Hey @official-aias.bsky.social and @officialgdc.bsky.social do you guys want to lead your industry and get off twitter?

Or are you hoping to energize the game development community with the new genre of race war games?

Or is there simply no line too far for you?
Some more direct incitement from Musk
