I simply love this idea that even absolute slop requires crunch somehow. Seriously, is the only value proposition here that there's no actors to pay????
McDonald's has released an AI-generated Christmas ad
The studio behind it says they 'hardly slept' for several weeks while writing AI prompts and refining the shots — 'AI didn't make this film. We did'

space station 14 has the most complex bartending system in any game I've ever seen, including games focused on being a bartender, and that job is basically just there for fun
many of the jobs in ss14 are complex enough that you could have a standalone game with just that job's mechanics and it would feel like a full game

when a poor person uses food stamps for a steak or homeless person spends $5 on a beer, it’s seen as proof that all poor people are so bad with money that they shouldn’t be given any, ever, for any reason. $77 billion out the window, and zuck’s legacy as a safe government contract bet is secure.
Mark Zuckerberg’s gamble on the "Metaverse" has lost his company more than $77 billion.

The cool thing about having real principles is that you can stand proudly by them even if people who you generally consider to the opposite of yourself might happen to nominally agree with them. If you're contrarian for the sake of being contrarian with your opposition, that's just being reactionary

why the FUCK would videogames be gender segregated that's soooooo stupid. literaly it's probably the same reason as chess. So the men don't feel bad getting beaten by women.
Kudos for these women for standing up and doing the right thing but they're trying to ban trans women from e-sports now? Absolutely ridiculous.
Women gamers boycott global esports tournament over trans ban
Several teams of female gamers have dropped out of the Dead by Daylight Women's World Cup after trans women were banned.

Is 'Die Hard' a Christmas movie? Are the lyrics to "Baby, It's Cold Outside" problematic? What else can we rehash this season
I put it to you that Paul McCartney’s “Wonderful Christmastime” is not merely the worst Christmas song but is also in fact the worst song in the history of recorded sound.

Everyone is vulnerable to believing that their expertise - writing, tech, engineering, philosophy, whatever - is The Most Important One that’s going to Fix Everything, but there’s something unique about gambling addicts saying “what if we tried gambling our way to the truth?”
