Fiery Game Designer & Creative Type - also [insert witty, ironic comment here], [followed by a joke in Monty Pythonesque style] and [add self-deprecating remark that establishes Canadian origins but not as a lumberjack].
11 years ago, Edge of Tomorrow (aka Live, Die, Repeat)(aka Tom Cruise Dies A LOT) came out & I loved it! Awesome action but, as a dad, I fell in love with Emily Blunt as Sgt Rita Vrataski & how she could be an awesome action hero for my daughter. Tonight, she saw it & agreed! #sooohappy

Savage but, from this external perspective, seemingly accurate article. The amount of manager incompetence that led to 4+ year projects being cancelled last week is a bit breathtaking. I'd be awfully cautious about partnering with MSFT on anything these days.

Xbox's absent landlord execs are only part of a much bigger problem
Microsoft's continued job slashing at Xbox and beyond reveals a troublesome disdain for the human touch.

OKAY. Here is how to actually turn off Gemini AI for your google workspace!
1) contact google support from admin panel and keep asking for a supervisor/to speak to a person.
2) ask them to enable settings in "Gemini for google workspace"
3) turn it off.
I just did this and it worked.

1000% correct
Generative AI isn't magic — it's a fantastical version of autocomplete that can't help but make the same mistakes it learned from the things it's stolen from others.
Anyone who tells you otherwise is getting rich off the death of the internet.

Holy crumb, Blue Eye Samurai is SO good! Wonderful writing, compelling story arcs, beautiful animation & art, phenomenal voice performances…and that action choreography, STUNNING. Want to watch it again already!

I'm a huge fan of Game & Watch (or LCD games, in general) & really enjoy Lucas Pope's work so this is a dream to read about! Wonderful stuff.

So, last week Paradox took a big dump on the Lamplighter's League, doing a big write-off (having also previously laid off 80% of Harebrained Schemes staff). Now they're doing damage control IN ADVANCE of the Cities: Skylines 2 release?
Bizarre move. Must be tough to be a badly run public company!

It’s finally happened, Analogue has announced a console update that I don’t feel an immediate, cellular-level compulsion to purchase 😁
