Dvd case of the PC game "Mark McMorris Infinite Air"

Ok, this feels weird. I ordered a copy of the Mark McMorris snow boarding game that HB Studios developed to put in the Nova Scotia game dev archive. It arrived this afternoon, around the same time apparently Mark McMorris hurt themselves today before the winter Olympics

Playing Death Stranding 2... is that rock a thumbs up?

Yeah, they're always dressed in blue, what's up with that

Oh that's a cool concept

#Ubisoft tells workers to ask:

“If these actions were publicly disclosed by the media, how would they reflect on me or on Ubisoft?”

A studio was closed weeks after #union certification.

If that doesn’t sit right with you, here’s a way to speak up:

Benjamin De Kraker O @BenjaminDEKR Follow OpenClaw is interesting, but will also drain your wallet if you aren't careful. Last night around midnight I loaded my Anthropic API account with $20, then went to bed. When I woke up, my Anthropic balance was $O. Opus was checking "is it daytime yet?" every 30 minutes, paying $0.75 each time to conclude "no, it's still night." Doing literally nothing, OpenClaw spent the entire balance. How?

The "Heartbeat" cron job, even though literally the only thing I had going was one silly reminder, ("remind me tomorrow to get milk") 1. Sent ~120,000 tokens of context to Opus 4.5 2. Opus read HEARTBEAT md, thought about reminders 3. Replied "HEARTBEAT_OK" 4. Cost: ~$0.75 per heartbeat (cache writes) The damage: - Overnight = ~25+ heartbeats - 25 × $0.75 = ~$18.75 just from heartbeats alone - Plus regular conversation = ~$20 total The absurdity: Opus was essentially checking "is it daytime yet?" every 30 minutes, paying $0.75 each time to conclude "no, it's still night."

I’m starting to think the people who are excited about “AI agents” have literally never used a computer in their lives

A short look at the planet "HARVEST" in SCAVENGER ZERO. I'll be adding unique terrain generation for this place soon!
