You can now bypass Discord's age verification checks with a gamepad-controlled 3D model from Github

This is happening at a far faster pace than we anticipated in the episode. Extremely grim, very enraging

unity talk:

it seems like a lot of people aren't aware that unity is intending to deprecated-flag the built-in render pipeline (BIRP) after unity 6 as of march of last year.

that's. uh. a big fucking deal! if i had a game in-dev using built-in i would be sweating big time!

This thought experiment where the DNC chooses a candidate based on a negotiation with progressive commentators is fiction. I’m engaging with the grim reality of the American electorate. Look who they just put into office again. No one’s waiting on my permission to run.
