I remember being in high school, finding Doom, and the entire course of my life has run and changed through the current of my play and creation within it. I wouldn't have found the love of my life, I wouldn't have found the courage to leave home. It is formative in so many ways.

Just saw an ad that started out "your kids won't remember their best day of screen time" and while I of course broadly agree with the sentiment that you should do activities with your children, don't tell me i don't remember beating zelda a link to the past

Nymira's Celestial Observatory... crumbling yet still intact. The orcs do not know of its true purpose but they refuse to disturb the ancient and wonderful machines here

Thank you for all of the support and reposts!

And after all that, the Pitt/Cruise AI fight scene appears to have been just digital BG and face replacement on multi-angle green screen reference videos of two real live human stuntees fighting.

In other words, like most AI hype — it was a con. www.shokunin.studio/blog/2026/2/...

Pieces of shit and refusing to produce evidence, an evergreen pairing
izzos.net Dan Izzo @izzos.net · 1d
Ah fuck...

So basically Ron did bupkis until TODAY when he called for a meet-and-confer.

Come on dude... (91)
www.courtlistener.com/docket/69456...
Dear Judge Eshkenazi: As the Court may recall, my firm, with co-counsel, represents Plaintiff in the case above. Pursuant to the Court’s February 10, 2026 Minute Order, I write to provide a joint status update as to discovery. As more fully detailed on the record on February 9, 2026, the Court Ordered production in response to Plaintiffs Document Requests Nos. 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 24, 26, 34, 14, 35, and 25. For convenience, a transcript of the conference is attached as Ex. 1. The Court asked Defendant “how much time do you think you need now to comply with all of these requests,” making sure to clarify “that gives you both time for the meet and confer as we discussed as well?” Ex. 1 at 44. Defendant reached out today, February 17, 2026, with an “update,” promising a “large” production that would begin at some point tonight, and is “expected to be completed by no later than Thursday COB.” But no documents or updated responses have been produced since the conference.1 Otherwise, here is the current status of the various directives the Court gave. Meet and Confer: On Monday, February 9, after the appearance, Plaintiff asked Defendant to “let us know when you are available this week for the meet and confer the Court directed with screensharing, etc.” Defendant did not respond until writing an email today. Later in the same thread, after Defendant raised the issues he described in ECF No. 50, Plaintiff sent a reminder that she “ha[dn’t] heard back on other things in this thread.” 1 Defendant is contemporaneously making a motion to extend the time to comply with the Court’s Orders and the corresponding end date for jurisdictional discovery. If the Court denies that motion, Plaintiff’s position is that the time has come for remedies under Rule 37(b)(2)(i) and (ii) that “prohibit the disobedient party from” asserting any defense based on personal jurisdiction (and allowing the Court to move on to resolving the outstanding claim for Rule 37 fees). During a phone call today, Defendant offered to schedule the meet and confers at some point in the near future. Accordingly, the parties have not had the meet and confers the Court Ordered to take place before today. Today, Defendant offered to be available February 18, 2026, and if the Court grants an extension, the parties will meet then. Direct Messages and Communications: Defendant has not made any further production, but today made a representation that a further production is forthcoming to begin tonight, and he expects it will be complete by the close of business on Thursday. GiveSendGo Information: The parties submitted a proposed order with an Attorneys’ Eyes Only provision. The Court entered it as an Order. Defendant has not made any further production, but today made a representation that a further production is forthcoming to begin tonight, and he expects it will be complete by the close of business on Thursday. Wix Backend Code and Subpoena: Plaintiff asked Defendant to sign a stipulation to expedite and enable a subpoena to Wix for the backend code Defendant claimed he cannot produce. Defendant did not respond, so Plaintiff served a subpoena on Wix without a stipulation. Wix responded, indicating it had objections that would be resolved by a stipulation. Defendant signed the stipulation today, which Plaintiff immediately served on Wix. LLM Chatbot Transcripts: Defendant has not made any further production, but today made a representation that a further production is forthcoming to begin tonight, and he expects it will be complete by the close of business on Thursday. SuperChat Documents: Defendant has not made any further production, and represents that Defendant is not in possession of responsive documents. The parties will discuss this issue at a meet and confer if the Court grants an extension. As always, we thank the Court for its time and consideration. Respectfully submitted, _________________ J.

Today the ERA Bill passed, marking a dark day for NZ workers.

This Govt has weakened YOUR job security.

For instance, the door is now open for employers to ‘re-hire’ anyone as a ‘specified contractor’, lacking protections like min wage, holiday pay, sick leave and the right to join a union. #nzpol
text reading "Today the Employment Relations Amendment Bill passed, one of the darkest days for NZ workers. Every person, employee or contractor, should be concerned for their future job security. This legislation creates conditions for employers to pursue mass redundancies, to ‘re-hire’ under the new category of a ‘specified contractor’, lacking protections like minimum wage, holiday pay, sick and annual leave, and the right to join a union." text reading "“[The ERA Bill] will worsen the cost-of-living crisis, exacerbate the exodus of New Zealand workers to Australia, and encourage more predation on the working class by big business without redress.” - Dennis Maga, Workers First General Secretary" text reading "Brooke van Velden adopted Uber's wish-list when drafting this Bill, selling out Kiwi workers in favour of global multi-billion dollar companies.* However, the passage of the Bill does not rule out the pursuit of backpay for Uber drivers. Over 1,500 financial claims for Uber drivers have already been lodged by Workers First Union, and we will proceed with more." small text reading "*lawnews.nz/employment/minister-adopts-ubers-wish-list-when-drafting-employment-law-changes-rejects-official-advice/" text reading "Shame on NZ First, who sold out workers despite meeting with several unions over the last few months and claiming their intention to amend the Bill during its Committee Stages. Instead, NZ First offered no amendments and rejected every Opposition attempt to limit the Bill’s catastrophic scope. Aotearoa workers will not forget."

Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers.

If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of:

fund.godotengine.org
adriaan.games Adriaan @adriaan.games · 2d
Godot's GitHub has increasingly many pull requests generated by LLMs and it's a MASSIVE time waster for reviewers – especially if people don't disclose it. Changes often make no sense, descriptions are extremely verbose, users don't understand their own changes… It's a total shitshow. #godotengine

This post blew up huh? This is the game:

But also, see: bsky.app/profile/patr... why I don't make any money on my game.

I'm currently out of work because my employer laid off me and 400 of my coworkers.

"we shouldn't have to work for free on a game until it's nearly-done enough to get funding" and "it's the only thing you can really do so you should do it if you want to make games" are both true imo and it's shit but what else is there really to do that isn't just give up
