Awesome, those recommendations really help, thank you! Both myself, and my friend was the main playtester during development are autistic, so I have a theory that the game ended up accidentally tuned to tap into that kind of brain.

Something AI is responsible for that doesn't get enough talk: How, when it scrapes a website to illegally steal everything on it, it uses up a ton of its bandwidth allotment, crashing it or racking up massive fees for site owners.

OH. right! i get it now!

i get why AI is so depressing to me. because covid already shrunk my world to almost nothing, where almost all of my life revolves around socializing and watching videos on the internet (which is being ruined by AI) and creating creative works through coding (which is being ruined by AI), often using open source tools and libraries (which are being ruined by AI)

i already had so little and now even that is being rotted away before my eyes

saw a post saying we should check our game tags for players assigning them with adult tags, since those pages are getting hidden in zones with id verification requirements. went to check them on my game and it said THAT I HAD tagged my own game with Nudity!? never have i ever, wtf steam?

dev tangent. I recently banned posts for apps that used ai in the ipadmusic subreddit, so I've had to become quite the sleuth. There was a particularly funny case where I couldn't find proof but suspected, until I found their github and there were commits like "scrubbed last traces of LLM" lolllll

The way they use it in the intro as she falls from the sky is very good in the dub. It's a bit of a mixed bag for me though, sometimes I like the additions and sometimes I prefer the original silence.

i'm down a rabbit hole of an obscure Aus Post request for a rural property. and the process is getting so esoteric. at this point i have to write a letter and mail it to a secret address they've given me that's not open to the public. i'm hoping it's where the mail witches live.

i've been a reddit moderator for a popular music production subreddit for many years. we've cultivated a very lenient vibe there for self promotion because of course! the rise of selling gen ai apps is making this really hard. the scrutiny has to be turned way up and i'm grumpy.
