megane @jirai.bsky.social · 25mWatching one of my friends go through Ace Combat 8. Seems like many of my friend group consider the halfway point to be the low point of the game but after that it just gets better and better. Personally the only mission I was really disliking was the flying under the radar one. 000
megane @jirai.bsky.social · 2hI wonder what the sales graph for revolvers looks like on their end. Anecdotally from my time behind the FFL counter, not many people bought them and usually the ones that did were the aging demographic. 010

megane @jirai.bsky.social · 6hi KNEW creative assembly would fuck it up lmao god i hate when my cynicism ends up being correct. they removed the original game from being sold, put out a "remaster" for $40, and didn't even do a quality control pass on their AI slop. CA wouldn't be in business if they didn't have warhammer lol 000
megane @jirai.bsky.social · 6hpassed my network security final, so that's the first 8 week semester done. i really need to start using linux more cause they're starting to expect me to just know linux commands and i'm not going to if i never use linux lol 120

megane @jirai.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Actually I wanna use this as another tangent - Whenever a developer gets caught using "placeholder" genAI images, the "fix" usually is just them correcting the mistakes the AI made. In the cases I've seen, the developers did not replace the genAI art entirely with a new, human made piece. 000
megane @jirai.bsky.social · 12/10/2026I ended up not buying Anno 117 after they were caught using genAI art in the final product. I was looking forward to that game but it feels like a lack of passion for the product and respect for the customer when a developer publishes AI art. 100
megane @jirai.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Frankly I wouldn't even care about the coding with AI aspect, if it helps developers go faster then whatever as long as the end product is polished. It's the funneling "all" art workflows into AI that really gets me. I want to see what a team of passionate artists cooked up, not a machine. 100

megane @jirai.bsky.social · 10/10/2026I am praying they strike down Cook County’s ban strong enough that it basically nullifies PICA in the same ruling. We used to have it so good in the rest of IL. Anecdotally the Cook County ban has just been on paper. At my old job we would sell ARs to Cook residents all the time before PICA lol 000
megane @jirai.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Went to Galloping Ghost arcade tonight with a guest from out of town, found this cool arcade machine that uses a mirror for the main "Screen" and has a smaller monitor above the player that gets reflected on the mirror 000

megane @jirai.bsky.social · 09/10/2026We have to hope SCOTUS gives an ironclad and sweeping ruling on AWBs and magazine capacity limits. The NFA has been the whale everyone gets fixated on but I think it’s the wrong focus when more and more states are starting to ram through AWBs. 120

megane @jirai.bsky.social · 09/10/2026It’s still a huge move for the Overton window here and a good step forward in the long term dismantling of the NFA, I just wouldn’t be rushing out to buy something right now because it might come back to bite you at this stage 030
megane @jirai.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Recent NFA news is cool but I’m still concerned about the long term picture for those who decide to go buy unregistered NFA items. What happens if the democrats retake congress and raise the tax back to $200? What if the next ATF decide to go back on all this? The NFA is still law. Possession=crime 230
