Unpopular opinion:
I feel bad the ones involved.

That is fucking humiliating, and nobody deserves that, even if they they may have volunteered to be deployed.
This is still very wrong.

Man I hate this article so much. They put everything under "national pride being offended", instead of the Orange dictator starting an economic war against the whole planet.

Hey all. Tired of AI slop?

If you are not aware yet, there is an Ai moderation labeler (@aimod.social) that allows you to report Ai slop posts, get the post/user a label and filter them from your feeds.

πŸŽ‰Something to be proud of! πŸŽ‰

Endless RPG is among the top 23% of games on Steam by reviews. 63 so far, all 100% positive! XD

Out of 14,903 games released in 2025, only 3,513 have more than 50 reviews... and Endless is one of them. Yey! \o/

One of the perks of working on Precursor. When I get annoyed with something, I can just blow stuff up Gta style.

did you know you don't have to sell your videogames in israel? did you know you can message steam support to request to delist your games there and they'll make that happen no questions asked?

Wow... this kind of review never gets old. XD

Knowing someone got so immersed in my little game that they lost track of time. It just hits me right in the heart.

Thank you for giving Endless RPG a chance. You made my day. =’] πŸ’–

Yeah that was my thought as well: "Trying and failing being funny by being toxic on your website" is an Elon signature move.

It is funny (not) that companies that massively invested in AI are now massively increasing their services pricing (Microsoft, Adobe...), while enforcing AI features nobody needs everywhere.
Supply and demand rule is so broken here.

Also, Hogwarts Legacy on gamepass means a money deal with Warner, and probably royalties for JK Rowling so...
