I do wonder about that since he's the founder. 2026 is a great year for funny Megacorp decisions. If nothing else it'd be funny to watch from a safe distance.

Hmmm.. Disney owns Character.AI as it just went bankrupt recently, it's been adding progressively more AI on every platform, and has a $1 billion "partnership" at OpenAI (Sora). They're suing MidJourney for copyright infringement only because that eats into profits. I don't see how that saves Epic.

Hmm.. lest we forget, Tim Sweeney got upset and went off on people outraged over Grok becoming a CSAM generator. I believe he tried to downplay it after and made it worse. Very silly guy.

Korra's relationship with Mako and Asami was a thing through the entire show, rarely verbally but she did make a joke or two about being bi despite the writing being subpar at the best of times. If this person had seen either show they'd have more to complain about. My post makes no other allusions.

Hmmm... I hate the word "tourist" as a gatekeeping gotcha but I don't think they've watched the original show, ESPECIALLY not Korra and/or they're just baiting. Teo was the goat, it's not just Toph.

Hmmm.. no nuanced take here, that's pathetic. He'll wonder in 20 years why his kid went No Contact. Better yet, he'll AI-Generate family photos. That's already happening... sometimes very creepily.

Hmmm.. yes.. The console wars have come down to "how many people are stupid enough to keep buying our shitty magical boxes with 2 games each?" I wouldn't have had it any other way, wonderful work Mr. Kojima, it's like poetry.

Hmmm... I can't think of any companies that still sell lifetime software licenses other than Winrar off the top of my head, and unless you're a corporation even that is optional.

Hmmm... Other games have done scent trails, animal tracks, blood, specks in the air, birds circling around a target etc. they don't even have to avoid this altogether, make it a toggle or a radial scan. Logan has super senses, you can excuse guidance without the racing stripe, this is quite silly.

Valid, but twitter is the internet mecca of faux outrage and there's nothing more millennial than acting upset for updoots or defending corporations for engagement.

Hmmm... gross, reminds me of the initial trailer for the Sonic movie. Of course, no matter how it looks this is going to sell records. Hell, Nintendo could come out and straight up say it's AI and they'd get defended by the biggest AI haters on twitter because it's Nintendo. That's just how it is.
Ugly initial Sonic design for the live action movie.

I think my favourite part of this trend is JJ being totally okay with trans Parker and even correcting himself even with Spider-feller but still being the world's biggest hater where it counts. It's so great.

"Don't give up skeleton" was definitely DS2. I thought they removed the ability to do "but hole" in DS3 but I was incorrect. What I was thinking of was that they censored people named "Knight" because of the middle letters. In my head that meant that they must've censored the butt joke too. My bad.

Dark Souls 2 actually, in DS3 they nerfed it if I recall correctly. Brought it back in Elden Ring.

Also, worth noting, on their refund policy they say if you bought a game, and very soon after (within the deadlines) it goes on sale they consider that a valid reason to refund and buy it again which is very cool.
030
hmmm... @onthecontrary.bsky.social · 28/06/2026
They do warn you so you don't overuse it. If you've refunded too many games recently or seem like you're just "demo"-ing games by refunding them repeatedly and buying new ones, etc. they'll tell you that you shouldn't do that and sometimes (?) disable refunds for your account according to forums.

hmmm... @onthecontrary.bsky.social · 28/06/2026
I think the 2-hour/2-week period is just a guideline, tbh. Case-by-case if your report is credible enough you can still get a refund and as long as you don't abuse the system they'll let it through. E.g. in 2016 I got Arkham Knight refunded after ~3 hours of trying to bear it with the performance.

hmmm... @onthecontrary.bsky.social · 28/06/2026
Is their refund policy shitty? I think it's possibly the most lax refund system I've ever seen. Like, aggressively pro-consumer to the point where I think it's automated in favour of the users.

He's always had an extreme hate boner for Valve, who keeps winning by doing nothing, while he repeatedly makes the worst decisions every single time. Also let's not forget Tim Sweeney argued that trying to disable Grok's CSAM generator is "gatekeeping" and "censoring political opponents."

Me when it's a "shoot yourself in the foot" competition and my opponent is SEGA. So much of what's made them a laughingstock is decisions like this, including sabotaging themselves into becoming software-only. I don't get it. You got some good-will back..? Okay, might as well tear it down again.

The game is unstable enough as it is, adding more chances it'll kill itself at any moment just to remove... 3 lines of dialogue you don't have to interact with? ¯\_( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)_/¯

The fact that they have a similar shading effect in the game that turns the opponent into just a silhouette when fired is so funny. She also has a secret boss mode you can activate with a taunt (like Bison and Akuma takes 10 seconds and you play as her Monoid during it) with a giant 50% HP laser.

Who would this affect? The people posting 50 times a day are usually GenAI/Ragebait accounts and they're already the most likely to be verified anyway so they can make a few cents back on their monthly subscription. Hmmm... Maybe this means Twitter is bleeding so much money it has to go premium.

Hmmm.. that's a good basket. Been trying to main her in Strive (haven't played GG since Accent Core), she's very silly and her animations are amazing. Personally love this aesthetic for her, was never a big fan of her old nun-ish outfit.

We're targeting 30FPS in that one, which means native is around 10-15 on a GPU that can run Arkham Knight at 60 natively, and something like Elden Ring at ~40FPS (tested for fun) despite both those games having their own issues. What's getting me is those targets are with DLSS AND FrameGen. Hmm..

Hmmmmm.... Frame generation required for 30-60FPS? That's really funny. I'm so glad I only play indie games now.

I hope so, they said on one of the announcements for Lumina that next additions wouldn't just be F/GO guests and uhh.. they just never updated the cast again. lol

Best judgement is best when applying Heavy Blade Platform(tm) device to anything other than fruit and/or vegetables :)

What's a guillotine? Anyway I have this new device I'm trying to get going, it's a machine that you can use to cut melons at top speed. A large platform with a basket and two long struts supporting a blade. You pull the blade up, place the fruit, and drop the blade. BAM into the basket. Split melon.

Hecking love the shading on her skin. Tan lines are hot, but a tan gradient is also lovely.
