I'm gonna be real, Bluesky has to fire Aaron Rodericks or else this platform does not have a future.

He has singlehandedly done more to ruin its reputation than ANYBODY else on the team. Even ELON MUSK knows not to taunt people he suspends. Absolutely pathetic beyond words.

I’m gonna be honest @jay.bsky.team, banning a side account that I made after this one was suspended due to me being scared for my husband who was kidnapped by ICE and having a dev meme on this is insane PR for any site.

By that I mean BAD PR.

I’m simply asking for an apology. That’s it.

I love this platform but they employee so many odious assholes
Bluesky’s head of trust & safety responding with a sarcastic image macro to a woman upset her husband was kidnapped by ICE is embarrassingly unprofessional & cruel behavior.

that account was then banned by Bluesky Trust & Safety. horrendously poor community management. what purpose does this serve?

VILE: Exhumed may be banned for sale, but I refuse to let that stop people from playing the game.

It’s now available, for free, at WWW.VILEISBANNED.COM

Please share the site, share the game, and fuck anyone who tries to control storytelling and expression.

To clarify, there's nothing in this game that wouldn't pass muster in an M-rated film.

There are people spreading malicious rumors about it, claiming that it is more extreme.

It reminds me of Night Trap, supposedly one of the most transgressive games of its age. Reality: Milder than Power Rangers.

This Friday is Bandcamp Friday, where Bandcamp waves their share of sales and artists get 100% of your purchase

Most indie artists make as much from a single album purchase as they get from streaming ads in a YEAR. Support your favourite artists directly where possible

Ah yes, another CEO trying to normalize AI slop.
It's almost like the only people who have much interest in normalizing this are people standing to make money from it 🤔

Reminder that early Fortnite stole dance choreography from people of color and only responded when they were publicly called out or sued. That team has been telling the world who they are pretty consistently for a long time. We need to listen.
SO... I'm pretty much done with Fortnite. There were statements made by Tim Sweeney saying that AI usage doesn't need to be disclosed, and then AI usage was found all over this current season- from art to sprays to in-game songs. Between that, and the upcoming shitty wizard collab... Yeah, I'm done.

Epic Games sent a DMCA notice to my online stores for my geology-themed design involving a crossed pickaxe and rock hammer that said "PICKS...or it didn't happen" because they asserted that Epic owned all rights to artwork/mention of pickaxes, right before an SVP annual conference. Eric cost me $$$

Love to see the vocal outrage against Amazon using AI voiceover for multiple anime dubs in multiple languages

Let’s keep those angry vibes going for when your favorite videogame developers start using it k?
An article from Chinese news site GameLook has information on Hoyo’s new game Varsapura

Here’s a quote:

“the game team ultimately wants to create a humanistic sandbox… to generate dialogue with Al NPCs, but more importantly, to drive large language models to generate a network in the city.”

The thing about CrunchyRoll’s enshittification is that normally I’m a big proponent of supporting official channels but if the money from subscriptions isn’t being used to pay talent and labour and the quality suffers as a result, then morally what’s the purpose of supporting those official means?

Obviously I'm gonna buy it physically.

However I have a feeling preorders are a limited run and it won't be up online free for long.

SO.... I made it into a PDF! So if people cannot afford to grab a physical copy, you can download the PDF here. For free. Forever.

In case you needed one more reason not to use AI …

The CEO of ChatGPT is blaming a teen’s suicide on his failure to follow the terms of service:

Adam Raine, 16, told ChatGPT he was suicidal and the AI bot told him his feelings were valid and even provided suggestions and detailed instructions.
OpenAI says teen's 'misuse' of ChatGPT is to blame for his suicide, because he broke the TOU: 'Users must comply with OpenAI's Usage Policies, which prohibit the use of ChatGPT for suicide or self-har...
The lawyer presenting Adam Raine's family calls the response "disturbing" and I have to agree.
