This kind of stuff is so depressing as a video game fan. AAA companies could have everything they could ever possibly want given to them on a silver platter, but the moment their workers want a better wage they throw that all down the drain.

fantasizing about an all-new nonprofit business venture where we teach parents the terminology and warning signs of being "chronically online" so they can be aware of how annoying their kids are being to complete strangers on da internet and intervene before they fall down any number of pipelines

Ceramic bead making sounds so fun because of all the fun little clinky clanky sounds the beads would make after theyโ€™re finished, ngl.

Yes, there is supposed to be pen pressure. iPads these days support pen pressure, and tilt pressure, and loads of other stuff like that. But if you got a third party pen, it might not work. The third party brands tend to skip that part, which is really annoying for people on a budget.

a tweet by toby fox that says "I didn't try to learn Japanese for a long time because I thought it would be too hard. But now I love learning it and I use it every day.

If there's anything you want to learn, don't be stopped by thinking it'll be too hard! Try it! Game-making, music, art, language, anything!"

Some hand sheets I made for the animation team! I looked at how Dana drew hands a lot and coupled it with my own anatomical knowledge of hands. #KnightsOfGuinevere

Same. All the platforms Iโ€™m on feel like theyโ€™re either dying, irrelevant, or being turned into muck. I wish that twitter was like how it used to be.

YouTube has a big problem where people can falsely claim to be the copyright holders and claim other peoples videos. Itโ€™s a big issue and the system is waaaay too easy to abuse, causing lots of issues for YouTubers.

Ngl, Iโ€™m also interested to see what 100% speed runs are gonna look like due to all the tools and crests. Lots of room for customization so Iโ€™d love to see what fun things people can do with all those options. Congrats on the record, too!! ๐ŸŽ‰

Hollow knight is one of those games where it really takes a while to grow on you, but if you love it, you love it. My first playthrough was super slow and I never finished it, but I did a second playthrough since I was determined and my second playthrough was amazing. Itโ€™s now my fav game ever.

After an hour of playing, I am happy to confirm that Silksong is exactly what I wanted: an endless parade of weird little guys

Japanese Study Apps That DON'T Use AI - Japanese Talk The plagiarism machine seems to be worming its way into everything. Here's a list of Japanese Study apps That DON'T Use AI!

Good news!!!

I previously wrote an article about Japanese apps that don't use AI and listed Satori Reader as one that is dabbling in AI images.

Thanks to feedback from users they decided to change their approach and not use AI at all. Making them 100% AI FREE!!!

A digitally painted fanart of Kpop Demon Hunters. Rumi, a Korean pop star in her early 20s, stands under a yellow umbrella in the pouring rain outside a glowing corner store. Next to her is the silly blue tiger derpy, sitting in the wet street with no umbrella. The tiny, six-eyed bird Sussie sits on top of Derpy's head with a tiny red umbrella. The colors skew toward a glowing magenta.

Took a bit of a break from drawing, was able to come back with a tree drawing.
I found this tree standing with its rock in Cannock Chase Forest. Lots of beautiful ancient oaks still hanging around there and summertime is really beautiful in England, itโ€™s hard not to draw it

DuckDuckGo has introduced a new feature allowing users to filter out AI-generated images from search results, addressing growing concerns over synthetic content overwhelming authentic visuals online. 
The filter can be activated through a dropdown in the Images tab, search settings, or by using a dedicated AI-free domain: noai.duckduckgo.com. The system relies on curated blocklists, including uBlockOriginโ€™s Huge AI Blocklist, to detect and suppress AI-generated imagery. 
While not perfect, it significantly reduces synthetic content visibility. This move sets DuckDuckGo apart from competitors like Google and Bing by giving users direct control over their exposure to AI-generated material.
