Sometimes on campus you accidentally walk by a Business class and the professor is writing like "profit = revenue - costs" on the board and everyone is taking notes like it's actual school

Drawing of patchouli knowledge from touhou project 6. She's in her eosd outfit, i.e. she's got that ribbon thing and there are no purple stripes on her dress. It's also kind of her eosd portrait pose; she's standing and looking somewhat to the side with both arms down. She's holding a particular (big) book in her right hand and nothing in her left. To the left of her is the text "Patchouli Knowledge." because... i don't know honestly, why _is_ that text there..?

YouTube hasn't paid out music streaming earnings to Distrokid for almost two months with no communication, so my income has been cut in half just for fun. It's a startling reminder that the entire streaming ecosystem could just go away overnight because a tech company lets it. Buy albums if you can.

If you leave short story-sized comments in your code, it should be to explain something so messed up that you need to leave a message to yourself, Memento-style See: the first half of a comment block I left in the weapon code of Reelism 2
A massive comment block in the Basketball weapon code for Reelism 2. It reads, in part:

"Abandon hope, all ye who enter the Splot_BasketballProjectile section!

During the Early Excess period for Reelism 2, the Basketball was extremely prone to crashing. This was probably the most frequent piece of feedback that we received. We tried many, many, many times to fix it, and for that reason, I must tell you the story of what happened.

The Basketball was originally split between two objects: a projectile actor, which handled the collisions with monsters and geometry, and a WeaponGiver actor with a larger radius, which is what the player picked up and made the ball easier to grab in the air. This configuration ran into an issue where, randomly, GZDoom would crash immediately after the ball was thrown or dunked. The problem stuck around for months, even persisting into the first public release of Reelism 2, much to our frustration.

As far as we can tell, the underlying problem was related to how the two Basketball actors would need to constantly reference each other. If one actor was removed from play in the middle of the other actor's script, there was a chance that GZDoom would crash by trying to reference the properties of an object that didn't exist anymore. We could never get the two actors in sync, no matter how many safeguards we added.

The obvious solution to this problem was to combine the two Basketball objects into one actor, which is what you'll see below. However, I was reluctant to do this at first, because we would lose the expanded WeaponGiver hitbox. The Basketball is a pretty small object, so I was hestitant to cut that feature.

I started to implement the trimmed-down version of the Basketball on the evening of December 2, 2020 when the solution dawned on me: We could still use a hitbox actor, as long as it did NOTHING."

disingenuous and utterly misleading reporting by RPS here: Discord did not suffer any kind of breach this is a completely-unaffiliated-with-Discord service
Gaming chat app Discord has suffered another user data breach, with a suspected 1 million email addresses stolen alongside (potentially many more) user IDs and IP addresses. While Discord was not targeted directly, third party security service Double Counter have reported a "deliberate, multi-stage attack" wherein hackers spent nearly six hours poking around their infrastructure before the vulnerability was closed.

Double Counter essentially acts as a bouncer bot for Discord servers, promising to detect and block unsanctioned alt accounts and prevent hostile 'raids' by large groups of malicious users. While its efficacy in that mission is debated by Discord users, and the service has previously been accused of selling user data for revenue, the fact is that Double Counter can collect and store personal info of the users that visit its 'protected' servers. Info that, now, has been partly or entirely nicked by Internet miscreants.

By Double Counter’s own estimates, around 1 million user email addresses have been affected, with databases of Discord IDs, usernames, IP addresses, and even location info for up to 28 million users also "partly" copied by the hackers. Security breach trackers Have I Been Pwned further report that 275,000 of the pinched emails and usernames have since been posted publicly.

For those who aren't up to date on the 360 modding scene, this is a Big Deal. Believe it or not, until now, the 360 still never had a softmod and while some exploits in recent years had gotten most of the way, this is the real deal. You probably no longer need to solder your 360 to do Fun Stuff.

In the Mario Teaches Typing games, Mario never criticizes the player for underperforming and tries to be understanding and supportive. According to Charles Martinet, that was his initiative, as he felt being negative would go against the core principles of Mario's character.
In the Mario Teaches Typing games, even if the player does badly or underperforms compared to previous attempts, Mario will try to be understanding instead of critical:
Uh-oh, that wasn't quite as fast as the last time.
Hmm, are your fingers getting tired? Mine would be by now... if I had any. (laughs)
Charles Martinet, speaking at TooManyGames Convention 2021:
I got this marvelous opportunity to do Mario Teaches Typing. And when I got the script and I'm in the studio - I'm reading the script for the first time, there were things like "You failed!"
"That wasn't very good." "That was much worse... that was bad."
And I was reading that and I said, "Do you mind if I just, like, play with these words a little bit and just change them around?" because, you know, I never say "no" and I never say anything negative as Mario... and the producer graciously said "Sure, go for it!"
And so it became "Oh, that was good, but I know you can do even better!" "Oh, nice one but let's try again!" so it was always uplifting and always trying to be positive. And I think that that is the essence of the character to me - it's that love and that joy.

this all could have been avoided!
So, to sum up, an AI watermark appeared on art for the work of an anti-AI streamer in a pro-AI game, but it was not directly the fault of the pro-AI developer (though the developer absolutely should have caught this), nor was it the fault of the original logo artist, who did not use AI. Instead, a music distributor that does not appear to have qualms with AI failed to notify the streamer of AI usage on what is, at the end of the day, a simple embellishment of a preexisting logo. This resulted in days of grief and multiple headaches for those involved—all over something that could easily have been done by hand. 

And, per usual with AI, the specific person or people who made these choices remain unidentified. Are they still employed? Will they face even slight consequences? Impossible to say. The takeaway: Just don’t use AI! Generally, yes, but especially with something like this, which in all other senses should have been so, so easy.

Caption: Me when TOM KING is in critical condition and is being airlifted to the hospital

For the uninitiated, Tom King is a DC comics writer and former war criminal CIA agent who loves bragging about his human rights violations and how they shaped his work, while also using his comics to self therapize about his actions in the CIA. Unfortunately he's been promoted and writes or consults for multiple projects under James Gunn's DC Cinematic Universe.
