  There’s a simple solution to the case of AI use in game development. It should be in the background, not the foreground, and it should replace grunt work, not professional work.

  I think if I needed to store 36TB of data, I would rather get several smaller disks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pop it in your calendars⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You should get a publisher if:

  You want to make one game then get fired

  You want your work to be bastardized by the publisher in the future

  You want countless hours of overtime/crunch and no compensation

  You want to be another disposable cog in the machine

  If that doesn’t sound like something you want, self-publish.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pop it in your calendars⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  A self-published game with a focus on quality will outperform any AAA game.

  I don’t think that poor excuse of a man knows what accountability is

  I always wanted one, but by the time I had the personal economy to buy one they weren’t available any more.

  People were upset when PirateSoftware was spreading disinformation about SKG, well get ready for incoming weapons-grade corporate Disinformation.

  Luckily it’s no longer in the hands of the public.

  Vibe coding is 5% asking for code and 95% cleaning up the code, turns out replacing people with AI is exactly the same.

  You haven’t had to touch the screen on a Samsung phone since like the S6, every model after that opens from the back.

  Can you follow a step-by-step guide?

  Can you use a screwdriver to remove 5-10 identical screws?

  Can you use spudgers of varying sizes?

  Can you use a hair dryer?

  Then you can change the battery on your Samsung phone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Samsung phones can survive twice as many charges as Pixel and iPhone, according to EU data⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You say that like it’s impossible to change the battery on a Samsung phone. I can have it done in under 10 minutes.

  I’ll believe it when I see it. The Americans seem perfectly content with how things are.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The UK Stop Killing Games petition has reached 100.000 signatures⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  PirateSoftware (Thor) is a streamer and a game developer who is a narcissistic asshole. He’s been very against the SKG petition since I think the start since if it passed he would be forced to keep supporting his games once they fail (it’s happened before) and made a video trying to torpedo the petition some months ago by spreading disinformation that’s easily disproven with a halfway decent level of reading comprehension. Recently the guy who runs the SKG petition announced that Piratesoftware was successful, which caused a lot of big streamers and Youtubers to catch on and call PirateSofware out while endorsing SKG, including MoistCritikal. Since then the number of signings have skyrocketed.

  There must be some way to remove the “smart” controller from a device and replace it with a dumb one, like an arduino or something. I want to lobotomize these devices.

  I think Eurovision Song Contest should have like a sister competition called the Eurovision Film Contest, where each country produces one film and enters it into the contest for people to vote on.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Socialist megacorps⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We need to convince right-wing idiots that the left wing is in fact the right wing and the other way around. They don’t care/understand what each wing stands for, just which side it is.

  I’m assuming they stuck a camera to an LLM?

  Tech companies are treating LLMs like how people back in the day would put asbestos or mercury in everything. “It’s good at this one thing, it’s gotta work for other stuff too.”

  The only way you can use “female” in that way is ironically and rhyming with “tamale”
