Vibe coded programs are extremely dangerous. You have no idea wtf the code is made to do, and neither does the person distributing it. Like sure, it could infect your PC or create backdoors, but also memory leaks, render files unusable, brick it so you can't boot, anything Do not install them

To all the sloppers in gamedev: You wish you had a micron of the creativity and capability the average young person making a game on an old laptop while watching tutorials on YouTube has had for decades. No machine will turn you into a creative person.

Image from April 1st 2012 blog post "Semantic Game Builder Interface to be Integrated Into Unity". It shows a dialog box with a text input field containing the text: "Make a first person shooter in space. It should be open world with different planets to explore. There should be aliens of different types. Some are hostile but others are friendly and you can trade".

A bear-y grisly celebration is on its way. 🐻 All Saints' Wake returns to FFXIV on Thursday, October 15! 👻 sqex.to/p39ox

Image is the key illustration for the All Saints' Wake 2026 event. A large figure in a full-body bear costume with exaggerated stitching and button embellishments looms ominously in the back with its mouth open wide and tongue sticking out. They are holding a pipe in one hand and green smoke emanates from around their head. In front of them to the left is Leofard, who is looking up at the bear and grinning while shrugging his shoulders. To the right Cait Sith looks back at the bear figure with a scared expression, front paws sticking out and tail raised in fear. The background of the illustration is decorated with carved pumpkins and small ghosts.

The GenAI epidemic spreading across retro gaming circles exposes something: Making the scenes unfriendly to queer/trans/furries by giving a pass to unpleasant people and bigots in the past has left them without the networks of creators LGBT-friendly communities have access to and self-support with.

As I replay OoT, I'm reminded of just how often Navi reminds you were to go, how your next objective is blinking on the map screen, and how the owl introduces each new area. I can already imagine people complaining that the remake is hand-holdy because they also forgot how guided the original was.

Navi: "Impa said that the Spiritual Stone of Fire is somewhere on Death Mountain."

The map screen in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

Kaepora Gaebora: "I will perch here and wait for you. When you're ready to go back down, I can help you! Now, get going!"

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.

If you think an artist's style looks like AI but you can scroll back through their portfolio and see them doing the same work before 2020, congrats, you're not looking at an AI grifter. You're looking at one of the original victims whose entire style AI stole.

When you read stuff like: “Yes, AI was used to speed up the work”, it often means the whole thing went from: “I wouldn’t know where to begin” to “Look what I made” in a few days.

The cluelessness of this reminds me a lot of the NFT grift. The thing about NFTs was that it was mainly something finance bros were into, and when they were trying to worm their way into gaming, their pitches were an abyssal trench of bad ideas because they couldn't grasp why people played games.
