Dear companies,
Pointing out that Black Friday is shit and unnecessary as a tongue-in-cheek joke in your emails doesn’t mean you aren’t doing what you’re joking about.
Sincerely, me.

Well, that saves me some time.
The Let it Die sequel - Let it Die: Inferno - which is coming out next week (4th December), seems to have been built using a considerable amount of generative AI. https://bit.ly/4ol7lIA

I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

I have started (late, admittedly) to plan my December streams for this year and I’ve had a stupid idea that my viewers (especially @joeywh1te.bsky.social) are really going to enjoy and abuse.

Why the fuck is the next Tales remaster Berseria?
Hearts, Abyss, Legendia … so many games in the series are unplayable on modern consoles. But no, let’s remaster a game from 2017. 😑

Vaccines DO NOT cause autism - there is extensive research showing this. Resurrecting old, discredited, fraudulent work is shameful.
Vaccine-preventable illnesses are serious - this is going to cause real harms.
This is dangerous & disappointing.

Quelle fucking surprise. This wouldn’t be anything to do with the appallingly low number of women in high positions in the HE sector, would it? WOULD IT?!
'THE’s analysis includes more than 120 institutions from the government’s gender pay gap service providing undergraduate education in 2024-25, and excludes school trusts and further education colleges.' 1/3
Gender pay gap growing across majority of UK universities
More than half of higher education institutions failed to improve gender pay equity last year
