If I could get an AI that switched to something else whenever it detected, in a video my son is watching, someone screaming so that their microphone clips or peaks then I would be fully on board with this new tech.

Score literally directly became homecoming after the leak though. It's a continuum

The new #grandTour hosts carried themselves with honor. This will be great.

We loved making it. Getting to take people to the galaxy far far away and let them roam and explore was a childhood dream to me as a game maker.

It's funny, a lot of people don't realize gorillas come from eggs.

As a game dev i can confirm this is actually real. We call it TTP (time to p***s). A measurement of how quickly people will try and make that given any particular feature that can draw/create/place/mark anything.

I aspire to navigate life with anywhere close to the dignity and integrity of Sam Niel. A life to celebrate more than mourn.

That's a wonderful resource. And yeah I exaggerated but only because I'm sad a lot of games aren't in good shape on disk and will be hard to run for future generations.

Fredrik Thylander @thylander.bsky.social · 30/06/2026
Ok hyperbole to make a point. But I am sad so many games will be unplayable from disk the day patch servers go down. I'm for game conservation
010
Fredrik Thylander @thylander.bsky.social · 30/06/2026
Except of course no game has been complete and playable on disk in the last 15 years. Day one patches take games from buggy mess to finished.

I don't disagree, but also almost every person replying I'd a shareholder by way of a pension plan, savings scheme or fund.

Be upset that we have created the concept of companies and capitalism. Not that it's doing exactly what it's made for.

Fredrik Thylander @thylander.bsky.social · 21/06/2026
I never understand when people get incensed when giant corps fire people who make good things. Is it news to people that companies are amoral immortal entities optimizing for growth at any cost? Essentially economy facsimile of cancer. They do what society created them to do.

Fredrik Thylander @thylander.bsky.social · 20/06/2026
True but a lot for the time the profits are generated through cutting costs, i.e firing people.

At first I was surprised that Red Bull was deemed the best engine and Merc got an ADOU allowance. But then I saw the interview and it made sense. #F1

Its almost like its time to recognize that electricity shouldn't be a commodity, but is a basic necessity that should be provided to all citizens.

Gorgeous work. I mean at the time inwould have been mortified to think users would see that early version, but now it feels quite ok.

Yeah im aware thats what it was reacting to but his statement didn't talk about genAI. Just if placeholders should always stick out. Which is a valid and interesting conversation in itself.
020
Fredrik Thylander @thylander.bsky.social · 23/03/2026
Not to be all contrarian, but I find there are ocassions, too often for comfort, where the prototypes or placeholders needs to look good and blend in. Notably when showing investors, CEOs. marketing etc. early work and they are not to be trusted with the ability to ignore or see past placeholders.

If you include outbreak, revelations, the remakes etc, there has already been over 30 RE games.

I need to rematch it.

And to develop a game that is designed from the ground up to utilise raytracing to allow it to be more dynamic you have to make that call day 1.
020
Fredrik Thylander @thylander.bsky.social · 17/03/2026
Love those guys. Theyve done a tremendous job explaining these things. But the reality is also MOST games only use it as a way to add slightly prettier shadows and bounce lights because it has not made sense to target ray trace enabled platforms exclusively, financially.
130
Fredrik Thylander @thylander.bsky.social · 17/03/2026
(This is true only for games that are raytracing only. A game with optional ray tracing is just being made prettier which adds nothing as you say)
001
Fredrik Thylander @thylander.bsky.social · 17/03/2026
As a dev, let me assure you you are wrong. What it does for gaming is that instead of baked static levels where things aren't allowed to move, since lights aren't real time, game makers can now once again be free to create environments that are interactive and dynamic. Huge breakthrough.

That makes me curious what made you not expect it to be good? Might be just showing my age but I feel it's one of those films I remember making a splash on the award circuit and with reviewers back when it came out (as it were)

Fredrik Thylander @thylander.bsky.social · 08/03/2026
The new #Formula1 regulations are a joke. "50% battery". Except its charged by the combustion engine in convoluted ways (that ruin racing), meaning it uses MORE fuel than straight combustion. Its a charade to appease car manufacturers that want to appear forward thinking.

Fredrik Thylander @thylander.bsky.social · 07/03/2026
Remember when Sequels used to be just, really improved, perfected versions of the original? the #SlayTheSpire team remembered, that's for damned sure.

The fact Rocksteady debuted 9 years prior to Leona says a lot about influential and iconic he is in the world of body positive fashion.
010
Fredrik Thylander @thylander.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
Oh I agree. Just saying I've seen that happen.
020
Fredrik Thylander @thylander.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
Usually because its imbalanced, no?It contains a little bit of everything, where it maybe shouldn't. It tends to be overstaffed without a profile. If you made a mario vertical slice it would have every obstacle in that level instead of restraining to a theme.
