This isnt "back end optimization", this isnt "helping artists do their jobs", this is replacing talent with actual slop. This is why i think more individuals AND news outlets need to talk about the problems of genAI. They think they can feed players slop and some of'em let them.

Fellow devs, the so-called “Festival of Gaming” has the guts to warn everyone that skipping GDC means you “don’t care about developers”... Because Informa cares about ticket tiers, sponsor booths, and keeping the same unaffordable event locked in the same country that’s sliding deeper into fascism.

The Orphan Crusher is here to stay. If we don’t feed more Orphans to the Crusher the Orphan Crushing industry will die. It’s time to wake up to the reality of the Orphan Crusher. The Orphan Crusher is worth billions. We need to teach people to use the Orphan Crusher. It’s here to stay.

"Imagine if Texas had a database of everyone who looked at LGBTQ resources, or looked up how to get an out-of-state abortion. Imagine if ICE had information about which users could not provide a form of ID. Anonymity is going to die if we allow age verification to become the future of the internet.”

The whole obsession with space is wild, because let’s be real we can’t even properly maintain or fix this planet we have rn. Let alone geo engineer a foreign one. You’re never ever gonna live in space. But if y’all don’t stop with the delulu soon, we’re just gonna burn up in here together.
For the love of god can we stop airing articles about "X tech bro says this is gonna happen in X years clearly just in service of a publicity stunt". No. It's not going to happen. Obviously. Why are we indulging this?

The UK is about to ban access to Wikipedia, just remember this bill was originally pitched as a means to protect kids from accessing porn.

Then: UK govt loses mind
Now: Wikipedia loses legal challenge
Next: UK loses Wikipedia access?

This legislation is way, way beyond porn and stated scope. There is no good reason to age gate an encyclopaedia *at national level* under the guise of protecting children.

Hey Americans, if this passes you'll be uploading your ID to every social media and website to access it.
Be aware that another shitty bill has been introduced: The SCREEN Act.

If passed, it would require Full. Age. Verification.

Like KOSA, call all your reps & tell them what a horrible idea this is.

Spread this pls.
