Sick of this narrative that the use of GenAI is a "nuanced discussion." Where's the nuance? Is it the catastrophic effects on the climate? The loss of critical thinking skills? The theft? The loss of individuality? The inability to trust anything we see anymore? It's not nuanced, it's apocalyptic.

Revisiting the music of #KoRn for the first time in over a decade. Honestly, the nu-metal moniker feels disingenuous. This is Ska-metal and I'll be taking no feedback.

The Game Awards announced their nominees. For a totally unrelated reason, let me just say that the use of generative AI in ANY stage of game development is lazy, uninspired, and insulting to players, developers, and artists whose jobs are to design the assets your language model ripped off.

Developed by #StunlockStudios , V Rising flips the idea of survival crafter on its head in an aggravatingly fun way. From the moment the game opens on a decrepit coffin, you can tell things are going to be very different.

The demo for LAN Party Adventures by @leapgamestudios.bsky.social, speaks to the proverbial “90s kids.” From the first moment in the main menu, a familiar hum and static of early 2000s technology form a UI that looks like it could have been a screenshot.
