Stomp and the Sword of Miracles, my exploration-focused metroidvania, is just under 50% funded on Kickstarter! We had a great burst at the start, but the game still needs your help to cross that finish line!! ⭐

I got my midpoint sales update and I’m so pleased with the reception to The Game so far! Thank you guys so much for sharing and reading the comic! 😊 Please keep spreading the news for a strong finish! Here’s a new page!
https://www.shortboxcomicsfair.com/shop-sq4wj/p/the-game-by-ophilia-bedelia

A comic page from The Game depicting a series of flashbacks from their university days. Alexander shows Janine a scientific journal that he’s been published in. She flips some pages and show she’s been published in it too, which infuriates him. Next, he’s on the ground, books and papers scattered, admitting she is the superior mind. Next, they have graduation caps on and she is offering him a job out of pity. Finally, they are standing, embarrassed, before a judge, who pronounces them married.

Sora is a paper machete. It is low-quality, impossible to make consistent or reliable, while also being incredibly expensive to run. Every single “good” video you’ve seen is cherrypicked from dozens of terrible ones to make you feel scared that this can create entire movies’ worth of content.

Dustin @hareandthere.bsky.social · 21h

Curious to hear your perspective on Sora. It seems to be the only real (and terrifying) AI product to hit the market lately. How much mileage are they going to get out of this thing that needs to be regulated out of existence?

Journalism companies that regularly send reporters all over the place on assignments suddenly deciding they need a centralized, mandatory location for workers is embarrassing.

And I say that as a journalist whose newspaper went full remote during and after COVID.

My home is Portland, Oregon, ~1,000 miles from the nearest office, so this marks the end of the line for me at RS.

I've always hated posts like these because when you look at the series financials, you realize that later in that same match, The Undertaker chokeslammed Mankind through the cage roof and back into the ring in a largely unplanned spot

the homophobic boy detective @gaorush.bsky.social · 1h

Pokemon is the number 1 best selling IP on the planet so its inexcusable that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table

I'm concerned that one thing game companies will use genAI for is populating background details like fake magazines, store shelf products, and book covers. This is what they're trying to take from us. This is what's at stake. (Vampire Masquerade Bloodlines, Dead Rising, and Plastic Battlegrounds VR)

fake magazines mayday with plane, dead bird with bird photo, doggies with growling dog, greed with money in hand, slums downtown living, pain and suffering, chin, women whaler, eorm, energy, super punks.

fake cereals boo boo, blue honey, count ohoculo, meaties, storrios, fruit butte, mmmmy mmmy, by fake bags of chips.

books say all hail Caesar, first mayor of williomette, machines of destruction, they killed him, amazing Roosevelt.

side of large food box says below nutrition facts there is still a lot of space down here roo for a lot of text that I can't really think of writing just to make the box look full from a distance and busy and realistic. I just have to type a lot of things on the side of the box. don't believe nutrition facts here. they are just the same as the rest of them really they are and they are not accurate at all.

Just got a call from a lovely but very nervous Dr, who advised I wouldn't be routinely screened for breast cancer because I'm not indicated as being "biologically female" on the central NHS database and my biology wouldn't indicate I'm at risk.

My records have been altered, which is upsetting.
