John Carmack's been openly a huge dirtbag on twitter for years and years and it drives me absolutely mad how seemingly no one ever notices. I hate John Carmack. All my homies hate John Carmack.

There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

Texas A&M continues to suck shit
1. Texas A&M has voted that Professors must seek out official permission to talk about trans people, sexuality, or race.
One of the professors said that the new policy would make routine lessons on things like the Holocaust impossible.

sort of incredible to read a review that doesn't just made a vague nod at AI being bad, but actively reckons with the ways in which falling obsessively to AI usage actively obliterates the artistic intent and integrity of the work you've made.

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.

Watching Mamdani's victory speech, I'm struck by his—and his campaign's—unabashed vision of the US as an immigrant society, a culture built from the ground up from diversity. It is a complete rejection and reversal of the search for a white-washed homogeneity that the political right projects.

"A game should be reviewed by someone who has previous experience with the genre/series" actually no, diversity of opinions is good actually.
