Have you seen a movie called Terminator? The reality is more like Mitchelles vs the Machines — malicious tiny but sophisticated apps in all of the smart devices.

We used to play like this 20 years ago and thought it's perfect!

Yuri anime and manga event has been cancelled because its founders used AI art for promotional materials and all major artists cancelled their booths.

Apparently: one of organizers and a few freelancers generated some awkward and hideous promotional banners and the original founders were too busy with business part to check anything.

Our condolences to all the yuri fans out there...

Oh no! 😏 Anyway...

Never build your economy model around users who consume too much of costly computations for free without meaningful impact on their lives (= they will never pay ya).

Based: they also secretly filter out trash games like asset swaps and AI slop. Unless you play those already, it's nearly impossible to see them.

Poor thing

Do they mean that they somehow missed all these atrocities during testing and quality reviews? Very unlikely... Have they expected it will work out somehow?

We all know how it ended up with GTA definitive trilogy: it's still a disappointment.

The best Dofus movie is coming to YouTube (officially and free). It will be available this Friday and I can't recommend it more.

Go find and watch Dofus: Kerub's Bazaar before that!

Valve just quietly dropped the Steam client update. It made the loading times much faster. It's also much faster now than Epic's vibe coded atrocity 🤣

And this Steam fix is not unexpected: beta of this update was available for over a month. Epic may knew it if they would check it (at least with their AI)

The superior startup time was generally the only advantage Epic was able to show, so...

The last one, I promise: it seems like the app can consume all of your RAM. Titanic was leaking less than their vibe code...

LAIKA is basically the son of the evil billionaire making good thing and don't care much about the profitability.

But their art is priceless: ages later it's still stop-motion, still tiny puppets on wires but at scales no one could ever imagine.

And you know what? They haven't brought it to Bulgaria, local networks simply skipped it. No release date, nothing.
