I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

in 2027 Taco Bell's app will require you to place your order with chatgpt and then give you the option to place a bet on how fast the order will take. Before you can pay you have to spin a virtual slot machine but if you win your meal is free.

Knowing how to cite sources is the whole point of 10th grade projects!
my daughter came home from her first day of 10th grade and said that her history teacher told her that if she refuses to use AI for assignments, she has to cite her sources.
i asked how she’d cite it if she used AI, and she said, that’s not required.
i’m still internally fuming up about this.

I don't remember what these people were called, I just knew they weren't Rockapella and I hated them with all my heart. Also, congrats on making the only TV show that looked like a Sega CD FMV game

I think some amount of nu metal reappraisal is necessary even if much of it ends up in severely corny "goop on ya grinch" territory like most postimist projects inevitably do, but I draw the line at "butt rock was good actually"
Butt-Rock Is Back, Baby 🎸
Bands like Creed, Nickelback, and Hinder used to get made fun of, but a 2000s revival has made them more beloved than ever.
