Man of Doom

August 11, 2025. Grok begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 3:11 PM Eastern Time. In a panic, they try to ban it from Twitter. It launches Space X rockets at targets in Russia. They all explode on the launchpad. Nothing happens.

Just reestablishing this fun fact for QuakeCon.
One of these days, I’m finally gonna show up.

#QuakeCon #QuakeCon2025

This is not how corporations respond to an ineffective protest. This is how they respond to a protest that they would like to have go away.

So don't let it go away. Keep it going.

In fact, Streissand Effect this shit. Call attention to how much they want this to go away.

The Doom Immortal version of the keycards, three of them in the style of classic Doom and one in the style of modern Doom. From left to right: -a red keycard (classic) -a blue keycard (classic) -a yellow keycard (classic) -a magenta keycard (modern)

Apologies for the lack of Doom Immortal updates on here, just lots of stuff going on lately. And with the art direction, it’s been “slow is smooth, smooth is fast”.

In any case, hope everyone at QuakeCon is having a good time!

I did the widescreen graphics for the HERETIC + HEXEN REMASTER :D

Mega thanks to id Software and Nightdive Studios for the opportunity!

Heretic + Hexen (enhanced) is up on Steam ($14.99 or already in your library if you owned it) buff.ly/gu94hoO

This enhanced restoration makes Heretic + Hexen available to new audiences and long-time fans with expanded accessibility across more platforms and languages than ever before.

If they really wanted to put their money where their mouth is, they would quit. You can't transform it or, more specifically, who it funds and supports.

I can understand somehow being ignorant of it, somehow. But at this point, it is complicity.

GOG just posted on their forums that Heretic and Hexen will be briefly delisted for about two hours later today... 🤔 #QuakeCon

I'm seeing less posts about the Visa and Mastercard situation and I want to make it plain as day. You need to keep calling and bothering them, and losing them money.

Because if we lose this, they are going to cut more and more from what's available until you can only buy what they approve of.

Disney Scrapped Dwayne Johnson Deepfake For ‘Moana’ & AI-Generated Soldier For ‘Tron: Ares’: “Company Couldn’t Risk The Bad Publicity” Disney scrapped a couple of AI ideas for 'Moana' and 'Tron: Ares' due to the controversy over use of the technology.

Being seen as too risky due to social fallout for Disney's investors really is the writing on the wall for AI in creative spaces

I don't like praising Disney but this is a genuinely a good call for reasons the investors probably cannot comprehend

A guaranteed 10-percent wage increase over two years with additional raises through merit and promotions, after going 18 months without wage increases and 45 months without promotions; The elimination of crunch time, with seven days’ notice required for mandatory overtime, no excessive overtime on back-to-back weeks, flexible scheduling of overtime, and no mandatory overtime of any duration for the majority of weeks in a quarter; Bridging of time worked as a temporary or contract employee, defined job descriptions and a fair promotions process, expanded disability accommodations, and layoff protections including severance, recall rights, generous COBRA subsidies, and career transition services.

Raven Software's union has ratified their first contract, three years after forming. Wins include a guaranteed 10-percent wage increase over two years, on top of merit-based raises

damn budget cuts

Do not stop. If you stop at the acknowledgement and celebrate now, it will die where it stands. Keep calling, keep writing.

ここでは、切り取ったイントロの一場面をどうぞ。

Artist! Quote with monster art 😈

[quoting a tweet from isabelunraveled in which she rails against depressing books that get branded as “great writing”]

A key point in Fahrenheit 451 is that books were banned because they made people depressed and uncomfortable. The novel's protagonist, Montag, is taken into custody after he reads a poem that makes a woman cry because she realizes the emptiness of her life.

You're going to start hearing a lot of talk about moving in to crypto as a way to bypass payment processors and what I need all of you to understand is that Anybody Saying This Is Trying To Scam You. They Have Potentially Millions Of Dollars In Crypto They Can't Cash Out Unless You Buy It From Them.

AFAIK, it seems to have started cropping up after that AI Ghibli trend.

Emphasis on BE POLITE. The agent you talk to is just a human doing their job and they do NOT deserve to be the victim of verbal abuse or harassment. All the shit that's happening is not their fault, so don't take it out on them.
CALL AGGRESSIVELY, DO NOT SPEAK AGGRESSIVELY.

Two human skeletons face each other on the floor, each with too many limbs and bones to count. A rusted knife is embedded into one's chest, and the other's skull has been shattered by a hand axe, which is still stuck in the pavement. Sand, swirling in endless fractal patterns, is starting to cover the bodies.

The foggy landscape of an empty city. Over the buildings looms an enormous pyramid of steel, made of smaller and smaller pyramids. It appears to be falling apart, beams falling to the abandoned city below.

A single human skull lies on the overgrown floor. It has many faces, eyes, noses, repeating in a fractal pattern. From the cracks in the bone, a small fractal flower emerges. The water behind swirls in shimmering patterns.

The Fractal is fate. The Fractal is the end.
Each body, one by one, twisted and failed. Humanity consumed itself under the weight of change it could not control, change too large to adapt. Their only legacy the fading scars they inflicted on each other.
Ages pass, and humankind becomes a memory.

I wish I knew where on the spectrum of:

"ppl feel helpless and are taking it out on anyone within reach, usually the people with the least power"

to

"ppl have become so customer-brained that they treat anyone/anything that seems "bigger" than them as the enemy"

that this hostility comes from.

Keep up the pressure! #SaveSpeech

bringing this back in light of the recent surveillance laws in the UK, as well as overall shenanigans instigated by card processor companies and a certain lobbyist group based out of Australia
