Apple should make a feature phone. Not joking, an Apple feature phone with no app store. You get: a decent camera, apple music, apple maps, call and iMessage, that's it. You can pair Airpods to it, it has Carplay but no Siri or voice assist of any kind. 200 bucks. Ship it cowards.

RE Xbox disc-to-digital: It's fine for what it is, but everybody celebrating this as actual support for physical games or even game preservation has obviously learned nothing from the past two Xbox generations and their lies and smoke screens. Don't be fooled again!

Big video update! You can now post videos up to 10 minutes long, and they'll upload 2–3x faster. That's on top of the recent increase in maximum file size to 300MB. We can’t wait to see what you’ll create! NOW PLAYING: "Rent Control," by @shing.bsky.social and @jayackley.bsky.social

twitch has said that it won't be introducing labels to differentiate between channels that opt into amazon's ai training and those that don't. so streamers are taking matters into their own hands
As first spotted by Zach Bussey, numerous streamers have begun adding “AIOptedOut” to their tag selections on Twitch. Other popular tags with similar aims include “NoAI” and “NoGenAI”, with the latter managing to attract big names like longtime streamer Chris “Sacriel” Ball. While this approach is by no means comprehensive, it at least gives viewers a selection of streamers who for sure aren’t letting Amazon’s creepy crawly data-scraping bots go hog wild on their broadcasts. 

Streamers say it also sends a message.

“‘What does this do?’” wrote a streamer named Shania, who has also taken to displaying a “This channel doesn’t train Gen AI models” banner in her Twitch profile. “It gets people talking. The only way things can change is if we use our voice.”

“I'll be joining in,” said another streamer who goes by the handle Drunklockholmes. “Deception and hiding things like this is a company's whole MO. They know you don't like it, but know there's a chance that what the viewer doesn't know won't hurt them.”

Twitch now uses your channel to train generative AI by default. You can opt out of some training here: www.twitch.tv/settings/sec...
Training for Generative AI

Allow your channel content to train generative AI content models at Amazon. Turning this off does not opt you out of Twitch and Amazon using your channel content for other purposes described in the Twitch Privacy Notice, including using AI-supported Twitch features that benefit the community by facilitating streamer growth and monetization (such as real-time sponsorship campaign assistance), viewer discovery (such as recommendations), and community safety (such as AutoMod).

Happy 25th Birthday, Golden Sun! Released in Japan on 01/08/2001. Camelot RPGing in your pocket, with the sun literally your friend if you want to see the screen on an OG GBA. ;w; But yes, one of my favourite JRPGs back then (cooled on it a bit these days) and a core part of my GBA nostalgia.
A Japanese pamphlet ad for Golden Sun with the main cast in a brushy art style with fiery light flares shining from them.

As the director of a historical video game preservation institution, and someone who has dedicated his entire adult life to this cause, this is accurate. We have attempted to work with the industry's trade organization to find a legal path forward, but they refuse to offer a meaningful alternative.

Young players are on PC and/or playing f2p games for years. The consoles retreating into this service mode (and they will focus on game streaming - hardware prices guarantee it now) isn't going to win them over. I've said it before but consoles need to be cool, desirable pieces of consumer tech.
