So yes, now Pinterest labelled half of my hand-drawn illustrations as AI, terrific. 🙄 How do I appeal this? I can't see the option... 😒

A button to manually advance after a loading screen, particularly if it includes hints, lore or flavor text. Nothing I hate more than not being given enough time to read something.

I'd like more reviewers to take stands. If you find the use of generative AI in game development repugnant and you find its use ruins a game for you, then that's the review you should write. And that low score is the score you should give.

A drunken tourist attacked and beat a trans woman in Thailand. A crowd formed up and chased him and proceeded to beat him to a pulp. He was left screaming in agony.
The Thai people do not mess around with protecting their trans women.

A pregnant woman was shocked to realize her sonogram resembled her dog's face. Inês Egner went in for her 20-week anatomy scan and left with a photo that looked exactly like her dog, Goulash. She said, "In truth, we do like to jokingly refer to the dog as our son." 14/10 (TT: inesverse)

You know when you have a dream that's so absurd you can't even tell it because it doesn't make any sense? This is like the dream the people *in it* would have. Only worse.

After a few days, while I *can* work, my DAW definitely runs worse. Occasional annoying dropouts even on the simplest projects, and almost guaranteed playback glitches just by navigating the project.
So far it seems like it went smoothly. I can work and play Warframe, so that's good.
