Love a Wikipedia entry with comic timing
Thus, he was freed from death row, after less than three years in early October
1955. Taborsky appeared appropriately humble, stating, "You can't beat the law.
From now on, l'm not even going to get a parking ticket."

〽️ax krieger wants to port YOUR indie game to switch! @maxkriegervg.bsky.social · 08/10/2026
thinking about when i was at a booth at PAX West with a very visually impressive, stylized indie game in front of me, and the first thing the (friendly and very reasonable, this isn't me shaming them) booth attendant said to me was "do you like cozy horror? :)"
david lynch says:

It's such a sadness that you represent your game with a bunch of fucking Steam genre tags. Get real.

The American white collar workforce started working from home three days a week for like six months a year into COVID and executives so thoroughly lost their minds over this that they installed Trump II. If anything, AI will create the 7-day workweek.

i think the funniest fighting game balance change ive ever seen is in the formerly-rare umk3 wavenet rather than removing the base umk3 infinites by nerfing chars, instead they kept them in but added a cap to total moves in a combo. if u try to infinite still, the game makes fun of you, LOOOL

The original Google search algorithm that was wizard magic was machine learning. Same with videogame enemies learning flocking techniques and figuring out how to beat you based on your tendencies. LLM stans fucked this up just let the scam artists define what AI is now because they are dumb.

This is what I'm talking about when I bring up that genAI bots are making it impossible for an open web to actually exist. It becomes expensive, a pain, and domain providers like cloudflare are profiting off both the people making bots and the people who don't have the tech skills to fight them off

These people cannot be trusted to vote in their best interests. Ever. They have failed at the most simple task and have driven this country to ruin. They are too stupid to be allowed to have a say in the future of the country. Convince a non-voter to vote. There are LOTS of those.

Rod Serling was a king. WWII paratrooper in “The Death Squad,” TV pioneer, LOUD critic of McCarthyism who knew his status as a war hero put him in a privileged position to call shit out. Wrote critiques of racism into his scripts, created The Twilight Zone to escape the censorship that brought on.

actually the funniest part about this feeble attempt to rename "AI" to "SI" is that the entire reason it's called "AI" is to create a false link to fictional depictions of AI and the term "SI" doesn't mean anything to anyone

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

I find it funny when people talk about how games are this art form that can make you feel emotions, but then you bring up something like wanting more games to have timers & people will say its bad design "because it makes me anxious" So emotions only allowed through story, not gameplay. Got it lol.

There's another aspect to this as far as fictional creatures go. Neopets have a gravitational pull that is hard to resist but it is morally wrong to design a neopet on purpose or by accident

You can graph any creature on a ternary plot between pokemon, digimon and neopets. For instance Blastoise is mostly pokemon, a little digimon and not really any neopets. Lucario is still mostly pokemon but a lot more digimon in there. Gatomon is sort of right in the middle of all 3.
