Never forget the core thing funding the sheer scale of the spending spree of AI investments is primarily due to the turborich wanting to solve the “problem” of having to pay wages.

I'm in.

Now's the time to call up Visa/MC to ask 'hey, how come you guys will pay for ChatGPT and Twitter subs but I can't buy certain games off of Steam?' Because I frankly would LOVE an answer to that...

Sarjispajassa kysyttiin voiko tekoälyltä kysyä neuvoa, jos ei heti keksi ideaa.

Sanoin, että meitä ehdollistetaan kärsimättömyyteen. Eihän ideoita kuulukaan keksiä heti!

"Idealihakset" kehittyvät ja ideat kypsyvät ajan kanssa. Ideointia voi treenata harjoitteilla. Mitä sitten tehtiinkin.

It never ceases to amaze me how after years of digital media, we're still talking about "screen time", conflating a huge range of phenomena into a single, clumsy variable. In my view, the rough equivalent is discussing food and nutrition only using calories - or "eating time".

it’s always a lovely day when people realize weirdos are the backbone of any fandom and trying to make everyone “normal” kills everything enjoyable about it. fandom wouldn’t exist if people could be normal about things.

Israel has just arrested Greta Thunberg and many others.

Statement from the Global Sumud Flotilla:

“People of conscience have been abducted. The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.”

First impression of Silent Hill f: I want a photo mode similar to Ghostwire. And a toggle to turn off all that pesky fog to appreciate all the gorgeous details.

Oh, and the battle clunkiness is so nostalgic. 🥲

They've lost the 9yos

Kaikki pelit ovat mukana, vaikka kuvitus ja osittain strategiaan liittyvä keskustelukin on toistaiseksi ollut digipelikeskeistä. Digipelit ovat kärki, jolla on tarkoitus avata keskustelua ja saada laajemmin huomiota monipuoliselle pelikulttuurille.

Jos Suomen pelikulttuurin edistäminen nykyistä parempaan suuntaan kiinnostaa, tule kuulolle!

Ollaan puuhasteltu tämän parissa jo jokin aikaa. Ihan hurjan hyviä asiantuntijoita tulossa puhumaan oman alansa näkökulmista. 👇

Labubus certainly have a demonic look to them, so I'm not surprised someone would try to "purify" them. 😂

Whaaaat?? This is hilarious 🍿

Oh this looks like it might be fun to play together with mom.

Fuck me this is bleak.
But please, do continue to use GenAI slop thumbnails for your YouTube videos, or your album art, or your book covers or whatever else. I'll continue to refuse to watch/listen/read any of them, knowing already they're not worth the time & that you're a disappointing lazy hack.

I also took a copious amount of silly screenshots to deal with the heavy themes. This is a later one, but you get the idea.

A lot of good ones mentioned already.

I wanted to add Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker, which is a game about loss and the struggle of those who survived. The Ancients, That Scene With Venat, my character crawling... I had to step back from the game several times just to take a breather and process.
