Even for the 1980s, that’s clear domestic violence, dawg.

If the disruption really is some kind of political intervention, this is only further proof that Europeans—or anyone in the world—can’t rely on any of Musk’s products, as they will be at the whims of the technocrat that still finds himself at Trump’s beck and call. newrepublic.com/post/216600/...

Weird to see previews about how the Ocarina of Time remake seems to be designed specifically for little kids in mind, when if anything, Nintendo games where you’re forced to read all the dialogue because Nintendo is too cheap to fully voice the game is maybe the most anti-kid design possible.

Welp, took longer than I thought but apparently theres a video site thats actually going to try & compete with Youtube's niche. Completely Anti-AI, too! I've been burnt by the "next twitter" wars, but we did eventually land on bluesky so I'll still keep a cautiously optimistic eye on it 🤞

Much of the coverage today is absolutely nuts. The facts are on Wikipedia. The full Intelligence and Security Committee (Russia) Report is online. Tory media & politicians once again banking on their average consumer/voter being too daft/busy/blinkered to notice...

I'm sure the Kremlin was delighted we voted to leave the EU, but I also think it's passing the buck to blame it on Russian interference. Russia's role in Brexit was tiny compared to that of unscrupulous hedgies, ambitious politicians and decades of lies from right wing newspapers.

His argument that the whip controls make this the best in the series always bugged me, when that contributes to it being probably the easiest in the series. Also showed that he maybe doesn’t have a head for understanding game design.

Numerous people have already been pointing out for days that western reporting on this is an embarrassingly inaccurate game of telephone, so I'll instead reiterate that it doesn't cost that much to just have a real translator on standby to vet such reports. I know budgets are tight, but come on.

Nintendo are cowards for not trying to represent the original official art in-game, despite having the necessary horsepower now. The aesthetic in the Link’s Awakening remake was baffling and awful.

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."

Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...
