steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back
Insulting to the players, insulting to the IP, insulting to the medium, the developers. And the craft itself. Fuck you executives who pushed this garbage.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is littered with AI art slop, because your $70 means nothing anymore
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is littered with AI generated artwork which makes the $70 feel like a complete rip-off.

Hey, did you want something to read?

Just because it is an older series, doesn't mean it isn't worth reading. I've had my copies for awhile, and have read them through a couple of times.

Upside: Covid booster obtained yesterday
Downside: It triggers the chronic pain to lvl-11, which means I am going to be a very grumpy old man for a day or two.

Something I feel the XIV community needs to learn is that just because you may not find something challenging (jobs, quests, whatever) doesn’t mean everyone thinks the same. Accessibility is a good thing.

When you are a new creator, whether in prose, comics, or other media, it can be very tempting to agree to every convention or other event that you're asked to do. Exposure is great, right? And it's wonderful to be wanted.

I’ve seen a few folks go for the “if you simply must watch that new Harry Potter show just pirate it” and sorry. No. Just no. Just don’t watch it. At all. Ever. Break free of it. It’s time. You’ll be ok. I promise. I know it mattered to you as a kid. Find new things, it’s healthier. Just move on.

Alright FFXIV fans, if you haven't heard, there has been a mass of layoffs in NA and EU with more centralization in Japan.
Let me clue you in on something you might not realize. Trumpet has is requiring H1 work Visas to pay $100K per Visa.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Tirzepatide accidentally saved my life when no one was taking my long covid seriously or even understood how badly it was messing me up. I truly hope they find some solid evidence it can help others, too.
We've just launched the first large, site-less (home, direct to participant) randomized trial for treatment of #LongCovid, testing tirzepatide (a GLP-1 drug) vs placebo. Please help spread the word
