What's up, BlueSky? I'm Cody, a freelance voice director. For the past few years, I've been improving the pipeline between voice and acting and indie dev by hosting casting events, making instructional talks, and helping each side of the coin to speak each other's language. Nice to meet you!

TF2 has a picture of a donut deep in its files which, if deleted, causes TF2 not to launch. There are comments in the code stating they do not know why deleting the donut causes this, and to leave it alone.
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago
so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

So apparently gay rams are often killed because they don't tend to make more rams.
So this gay farmer buys the gay rams to keep them alive and sells the wool!

Minor thing, but Nvidia here clearly says "SPV's sunk Enron, and by the way we definitely don't do SPE's." And if I'm on a conference call, I probably can't tell which letter is coming out of their mouth (V or E), and if I have a lot of stock I probably don't want to know.
This is NVIDIA's memo, and it basically says that NVIDIA has a sound business (true!), but "our reporting is complete and transparent" is a *stretch*, especially given (as @davelee.me noted) that NVIDIA invested in an SPV with xAI, and I'd add that the oAI "leased" gpus would be an SPV too.

The music for the title screen of Nova Forever! This is also a very quiet and chill version of the theme for our protagonist Cargo. I use variations of this melody in many, many different scenes. Here it's realized with a piano & harp as the main instruments and some blooming synth pads.🎶 🔊

Ontario passed a law starting Jan 2026 that it is illegal for companies to ghost you.
If you have interviewed for a job they are legally required to inform you if they hire someone else or close the position.
The law also requires salary transparency on listings and disclosing use of AI

Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season

Great thread and investigation. Exactly what we all assumed: the ‘confidential information’ was wages and work conditions discussed in a worker-only Discord, not leaking anything about the game. Pure union busting.
EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum".
PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made.

As a fan of Meatloaf/Jim Steinman's work I'm having a chuckle over the promo images for Wicked for Good. Nice little homage they seem to be doing there.

Was playing a little more Kingdoms of the Dump off stream, and I think I might actually prefer playing it on the Steam Deck. Positively delightful game.

Your reminder about 'Vila do Nevoeiro', a visually impressive project made by Triskal in RPG Maker XP back in 2008.
One of the most impressive RPGMaker horror games was released in 2008 in Brazil (Before games like Ib and MadFather).
Vila do Nevoeiro (made in RPG maker XP by Triskal) became obscure mostly due to the language barrier (was portuguese only). It got an English version not long ago, thanks to fans.
