This isn't Democrat v Republican or Tory v Labour, it's the rich and powerful v everybody else. It couldn't be simpler or clearer.

It’s the same with “agents”: the reason we’ve been sold a false bill of goods around the technology, and been on the receiving end of all the hype is **specifically because** they don’t, and cannot, work.
If Gemini 3 could actually make games (it can't), then why the fuck would Google offer it to anyone? They could just make all the games and keep all the money.
The answer of course is that it won't do anything they're promising; Google is just lying to get investment dollars.

We have all the resources, technology, and available labor to save the world today! Reverse climate change, end inequality, etc.
The only reason we don't is our society has been setup that we are not allowed to save the world unless an already rich, old, white person gets even richer.

Every unit of sunshine that hits earth is precisely $0.
It’s literally insane that we know that fact and allow a profiteering scheme to tell us that’s not good enough and charge us for an alternative that literally kills us.

This is a fascist technology that fundamentally -by its core design and characteristics as a technology- serves the goals of bigots, racists and bloodthirsty white supremacists
It has no role in progressive or left advocacy, no matter how much time it saves you. When you use it, you're helping them

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally

Regurgitative AI is now implicated in multiple deaths but still there is no sign of regulation.
Meanwhile, governments are working to ban trans people from public life based on imaginary scenarios that haven’t happened.
Not even AI could write a situation as stupid as this shit.

i've come to realize that i need to basically ignore any review of puzzle, roguelike, and shmup games that aren't written by people in their respective communities or i'll start coughing blood over reading people complain about accepted genre conventions and "difficulty".

Yeah, we're in a particularly shiny part of a golden age for fan translations. PC Engine, PS1, Saturn, Famicom; a bounty of more accessible stuff. Starting to see more Wii and PS2 as well now. Some really cool hacks come out too.
Seeing all these PC-Engine CD games get fan translated recently is really cool to see. It's kind of crazy to think that a large majority of all the English patches available for the system have only been released in the past few years.

Western civilization/colonialism wants its slaves back.
The "AI Boom" isn't just theft, it's distributed slavery; we're all a little bit a slave now, without even the barest hint of compensation to cover the fact up.

The concerns about piracy were only ever about profits for companies, and now that bigger firms can make bigger profits from suck theft, it is ok.

Opened up Nebula for something to watch and see Patrick Willems's got a new video up. Halfway to my insta-click, I realized:
"I don't care any more"
I've had enough of critique, criticism, and especially of comparisons between video games and cinema.

Private schools shouldn't receive a cent of public funding
The kids public primary school is 35ºC inside for the final assembly.
Meanwhile the Federal Government has been pouring literally millions and millions into private school up the road so they can build a second music room.
But not an extra cent for us.
