Gold standard for cyberpunk, still, to be quite honest. More people need to understand this.

System Shock (1994), Finished in June No joke, I'll be thinking about this game for the rest of my life. Archaic controls do NOT stop this from being an all-timer for me, amazing atmosphere and gameplay loop, with a soundtrack slept on due to nonexistent modern MIDI support. You Gotta Try This.

Powerful statement from mathematicians around the world. “We urge mathematicians to discontinue their work with OpenAI and to return to a vision of science that centers human understanding.” The backlash to AI is only just beginning. terrytao.wordpress.com/2026/10/07/a...

Yoko Shimomura did an arrangement of Megalovania and Sakurai called him a member of the 'Game Director Avengers', I'm a little afraid TobyFox might die of joy before finishing his game

it is interesting that I can't find any mainstream media coverage of Altman's sister Annie going viral on social media over the weekend for uploading footage of the first hour of her deposition in her lawsuit against him (one of two) in which she is alleging years of CSA

CSP being pressed to take even just /kissing/ off their asset store and FA being told that plus sized characters are considered adult should be a giant waving red flag to folks. Sex workers have /always/ been right to say these policies never stop with 1 type of content. They always wanna ban more.

The bill has been opened to feedback. Rather than dooming about the proposal, you can tell them exactly how you feel about the act here. ec.europa.eu/info/law/bet... With how much of an uphill battle Chat Control is having, you should never assume it's worthless to fight these draconian bills.

1) This isn't about generating games or assets with AI, it's just about using automation tools for some processes like bug testing which isn't inherently bad 2) IGN should be embarrassed for this headline. It doesn't say "AI generation" as in generative AI, it's 世代, "generation" as in "time period"

Third party advertisers are generating $150 a month in revenue for a site that can raise hundreds of thousands a year from donations. This is just absolute proof that internet advertising has failed as a business model. Instead of capturing some of that revenue they're trying to content police.

Imagine how humiliating it must be for an ad company to demand content changes to a site like FA, only for that to cause the ads viewers to literally pay -more- money directly to FA to get the advertiser to fuck off. Like, the money was there all you had to do was not fuck with it.

In regard to FurAffinity being at risk due to censorship: Furries are now political targets. We are getting namedropped at high levels of government. They know that we are a large, influential, largely queer, community. Fighting for the spaces owned by our community is incredibly important

TLDR: Fur Affinity's advertising partners are demanding that they ban adult content. Sciggles and FA want to firmly tell them to go fuck themselves. If they're going to be able to afford to do that, they need the community's help. Pitch in. Keep furry weird. www.furaffinity.net/journal/1143...
