🎄 🎁 Hey, folks!

When I created this channel a few years ago, it was supposed to be a place with bookmarks about game development and IT. A place for me and a couple of friends. It's fascinating to see almost 3000 people here!

I wish you all the best in the upcoming year and don't forget to enjoy this evening: call your parents, hug your kids, eat something tasty, play games you like, even if they are cringe 😅

And let's make amazing games next year! 😉

How is your year going so far?

Financial Times claims that Meta (Facebook) is planning to fill its social networks with "official" AI bots — fake people will have profile pictures, they will share photos, make posts, and engage with others.

According to their testing, average users no longer able to determine who are bot anyway.

Which means, “dead internet theory” is no longer a theory! And foil-hat people were right again.

This year's handhelds are insanely fast but also got more expensive — thanks to AMD, who in lack of competition and growing demand priced their AI chips up to 2 times higher.

With Variable Refresh Rate screen and FSR3 Frame Generation support, it can run even the most demanding games.

In just a few days there will be yet another pack of overpriced cards with DLSS 4 and AI textures. Which will no doubt be incompatible with older cards!

For the US market the mentioned price is equal to about $1400 MSRP (since European listing has VAT applied). But still: 5080 for $1400 is madness.
