I wish they would shift to bankruptcy.
Mark Zuckerberg’s gamble on the ‘Metaverse’ has cost Meta more than $77B

The company now plans to cut spending on it and shift focus to AI wearables instead

This was one hell of an undertaking. We still have a lot to learn with Linux benchmarking, but we finally have a foundation for it. This is our first-ever round of desktop Linux GPU gaming benchmarks -- we've previously only done this on handhelds: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovOx...

The amount of people I know who have been laid off from games industry jobs and are deciding to leave games entirely as a result is not only extremely saddening (of course), but also genuinely scary. We have lost legitimately thousands of years of knowledge and experience in the last four years.

“You know, fair use is fair use and we need to make sure that we’re not stealing people’s intellectual property and rights but..."

No! There is no "but" here! That statement ends with a period, not a "but".
"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.

Happy belated Birthday to the GOAT GameFAQs. This got so many of us who couldn't afford game guides through the 2000s
Hey, happy 30th birthday GameFAQs! Launched on November 5th, 1995!

The earliest scrape I can find on Wayback is December 1996, but I doubt the site changed much. But yes, here it is in its earliest days as the Video Game FAQ Archive!

It wasn't deep. It didn't have much to say. But Xiao Xiao inspired millions to try Flash animation for themselves.

A Beijing artist made this series -- and turned stick fights into a phenomenon. We're exploring why and how he did it:

So the Gaming Copilot beta in the Game Bar apparently defaults to on for model training.

Win+G to bring up Game Bar. Go to Gaming Copilot > Settings > Privacy in case you'd like to... review... that setting.

One thing a lot of my friends missed from other social media platforms was interacting with venerable Japanese game devs. To that end I've made a list of folks I know are here, focusing on devs whose games you will have heard of. Please share and tell me who I'm missing! go.bsky.app/5R1tEtT

BY THE WAY

If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2.

There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security.

Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation."

TURN IT OFF.
