Anyone who doesn’t see how very satisfied I’ve been throughout production doesn’t get what I most want out of an adaptatation. Mind you, that does tend to happen.

I thought this was a pretty interesting take from Codeberg's announcement of their anti-LLM policy They argue that many developers using LLMs are essentially heaven-banning themselves where they don't realize they're developing for a nonexistent community
# The development team of none

Using LLMs to work with your code gives you a kick of adrenaline. You can develop at a rapid pace, build things as if you had a large team. Only that you have none. In fact, you are (often) alone, working with a statistical machine that turns energy into code.

It seems like many ‘vibe coders’ don't realize that they don't actually have a community around them. They build projects as if they had, and spend resources accordingly. We see projects having a lot of code activity, heavy CI/CD testing, frequent and large release binaries. Sometimes, it feels like the amount of supported platforms exceeds the amount of actual users.

To us, it seems ridiculous to see projects with a single developer and virtually no users consuming as much or even more resources than some of the largest community projects on Codeberg, which operate frugal with CI/CD and storage resources. We do not believe it is reasonable for Codeberg to invest our precious donation money into hosting of large ghost projects.

#ScreenshotSaturday I had this issue where if enemies was standing behind a door, and you walked through it, you would then occupy the same tile as them. I fixed it by having enemies prevent you from entering, breaking down the door and starting an encounter. #RPG #retrogaming

There's a reasonable chance that Metal Stoker's English title was the result of an error. But that doesn't matter because it's a very good free roaming shooter on the PC Engine. youtu.be/za-4TYP7GJQ

Just found out about the Wizardry remake for the Famicon. This might be the best thing I've ever seen. Can you imagine a hippo in a dungeon. #CRPG #DungeonCrawler #Famicon

Good to see @godotengine.org coming out and clarifying their statement As I mentioned you need to give orgs a minute… corporations are pr’ing the future they want orgs are reacting Also the biggest reaction to earlier statements was from an alternative engine… huh www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...
pcgamer.com
Open source game engine Godot will no longer accept AI-authored code contributions: 'We can't trust heavy users of AI to understand their code enough to fix it'
At risk of drowning in AI slop code, Godot is firming up its contribution requirements.

For random game Saturday, here is a brand new homebrew turbografx collection I got in the mail today. It contains @aetherbyte.bsky.social's reflectron and nantetatte engine on one cart. More info here www.aetherbyte.com/aetherbyte-a...
My hand is holding a home made turbografx hucard with an alien and an anime girl on it. Has a yellow and pink label that says aethermix. Behind it is a cassette tape of music from the games (and others) with a swirly pastel cover, with robots and a green hand drawn logo saying aether mix on it, this time as two words.
