BREAKING: Yesterday Grand Theft Auto VI maker Rockstar Games fired dozens of people, all of whom were involved in union efforts. A British union calls it "blatant and ruthless" union-busting. Take-Two Interactive says it was due to misconduct.

Here's the scoop: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Ah that's a bummer. My needs are very light, mostly YT thumbnails and social media posts so hopefully it'll be enough for me 🤞

Sorry to hear buddy, hope everything goes well with the treatments.

Annoys me so much lol

So it turns out the big reveal is that Affinity has gone completely free with their apps being rolled into one. I'll definitely be checking it out this weekend.

I already switched to Davinci Resolve a few years ago. Hopefully this will work for my photo editing needs and get me off Adobe for good.

One of my biggest pet peeves about streaming apps is clicking into a show and it automatically starts playing an episode.

Maybe I'm in the minority but imo it should always go to the episode list first.

30 years ago today, The Simpsons premiered the "Treehouse of Horror VI" Halloween special, in which Homer enters a 3-Dimensional world and crosses paths with the library from Myst island!

I've been having a hell of a time figuring where to download the app from the Affinity website...turns out they took down the ability to purchase/download it because of some new update that comes out tomorrow (Oct 30)

So I guess I'll see what that is tomorrow

The most recent update for Photoshop causes it to get stuck on the loading screen and it's pissing me off. This might be the thing that finally pushes me off Photoshop.

I've been looking at Affinity Photo. Anyone have experience with that program?

Wrapped our Little Nightmares trilogy playthrough!

Part 3 was good and more or less exactly like the first two games, it didn't really bring anything new to the table, but it was a creepy, fun time!

Did you ever wonder what the last game released on the Sega Genesis was? Did you ever think the answer was Frogger of all games?

Let's talk about it!
