If you have an OG Playdate, you have 2 days to grab an over-the-air update before certificate expiration blocks your ability to connect to Panic's servers. After the 15th, you can still do a manual update, but an OTA update is the easier route. retrohandhelds.gg/still-hangi...

Still Hanging Onto your Playdate? Make Sure You Update It Before October 15 | Retro Handhelds

Playdate OS 3.1.2 is available now, and owners on older firmware should update before October 15 to avoid future connectivity headaches.

Hey remember back in the day when Disney worked with Virgin games and Capcom who put out several really good licensed games because of the hard work and dedication of human animators and programmers? Those were good times.

My latest @newscientist.com cartoon

Panel 1: a large robot (composed of AI servers, network switches, storage arrays, and power distribution units) and a human are talking.

Professor "You don't want to destroy humanity do you, lLLM-A-9300x?"

Robot "Haha. What a silly question, Professor. I have no desires or feelings of my own whatsoever."

Professor (relieved)"Oh good."

Panel 2: they walk on. The robot continues "I am merely a tool of the company that created me. And that company, being composed of humans, will naturally have humanity's best interests at heart."

Panel 3: The professor is conspicuously quiet.
"Right?" says the Robot.
…
More silence

"Professor?"

You mean post an RGJ cartoon blaming Europe and/or the transes? The Eye is a valuable resource for actual facts, but we have those. For satire Hislop feels the need to punch both left and right when punching left is now punching down, and has extended that to punching down on other groups.

In Command at E3 1998: Westwood Studio and Dune 2000's demo booth, as sufficiently grungy as the game's UI itself. One of my favourite remasters in all but name. And very cool to see it presented like this. 💿: PC-X December 1998 (IA)

An 800x600 res photo of an elaborate booth and demo setup with a cyberpunky bare metal and circuitry chair, grungy metal plating and monitor chasis and screens giving you the vibes of something you'd sit in in-universe. Someone's sat in it with their hand on the mouse in by the CRT monitor.

I'm not convinced LLMs will solve this problem of these kinds of comments. Style transfer has been a thing for a while and these sort of ports are sort of equivalent. There's no guarantee these comments do what they say even if they become comprehensible.

Badenoch claims £2,700 a month from the taxpayer to rent a grade II-listed farmhouse with six bedrooms. The property sits within the highest council tax bracket, costing over £4,000 in council tax a year, which the Essex MP also claims on expenses. "Best welfare" is being an MP.

This gets said constantly, but it worth reiterating: Games Workshop being bigger than fishing is important to shout about because you wouldn't know it from government talking points, which are rarely about anything creative or artistic. Growth won't involve fish or steel, it will involve goblins.

Even more recently it still blows my mind that anyone is falling for it after they just did this with crypto. It’s like they ran a show for a season, cancelled it because nobody watched, and then just released it again with a different title. It’s the same cast! The same tactics!

I'm surprised nobody has tracked down the original developers and interviewed them (there are some old interviews from the time in scanned newspapers I think). Also, sad that the issue of PC Format I had that had NeoPaint on the cover does not seem to be archived.
