If you're going to be a nerd and actually continue to use AI, probably don't let it touch your fucking computer. This is like "running shit on my PC 101"
Opus 5.5 just deleted my entire fucking C drive. Thank GOD I have daily backups running to my Synology NAS, but holy fucking shit. This is insane. If I didn't have these backups running I'd be thoroughly fucking devastated.

God I'm fucking glad my CS:S Surf maps have been lost to time. The dumbest part is you could write this in ThreeJS in a week if you had JS experience, having to use AI to make this is fucking embarrassing and you AI nerds are still not developers.
GPT-6 astra just recreated counter-strike surfing in a browser and it feels AMAZING. the movement is almost indistinguishable, astra launched a local counter-strike server to check its own physics. it cloned surf_boreas and other maps perfectly. recorded on chrome:

I've just created this petition at this point. The only thing we can do is call out to Steam. change.org/steam-age-verific…

The problem is Lance, they aren't reasonable steps. Let the parents actually parent their children, I am so sick of having to take a photo of my face to be able to access anything. I pay FAR too much for internet and now they won't even let me buy the R18 games they still ban.

AusGov: "You have to take reasonable steps to ensure users are 18 years old if you're hosting adult games." Valve: "Well we say the only reasonable way is to require them to have a line of credit with Visa or Mastercard. Sorry customers, blame your government!"

I'm gifting three Blick (blickeditor.com, @Blick_Editor) licenses to students or younger creators (one Supporter, two Basic). If you’re a student or a younger creator, reply with a screenshot, video, or demo of something cool you work on. I’ll pick three people from the replies. You can try Blick for free, so do that (if you haven’t) to see if you’re interested.

Dear Unity, Full Source your engine. Also why does CLI cost? We also dont give a shit about AI, bin MCP and fix the list list of issues from 2013 onwards that still exist, or let us fix them.

As someone whos been using Unreal 4+ since the 2013 beta, paid the monthly sub and dealt with all the quirks and issues, I refuse to touch Unreal 6. 5.6 is as far as I go currently. I'm just going to write my own engine at this point.

The valid hate for shit like vibe coding and DLSS 5 really showcases that people just want games made by passionate developers and they can usually tell the difference between something someone put time into and sharted out AI bullshit

Unskippable cutscenes and "walk with me" dialogue. Valve nailed it with Half-Life 2 but for some reason we're still doing the restrictive walk and talk or forced cutscene. Nothing makes me stop playing a game faster.

When someone tells you their plans...believe them. Throwback to when the PM said he'd ban social media. We need your help in our fight to repeal the social media ban, support our High Court Challenge here: ap1.hubs.ly/y0qMxt0 #australia #socialmedia #digitalfreedom #socialmediaban #auspol

What the hell is happening with Meta's weird hybrid TypeScript in Horizons? I'd honestly rather learn Verse.

The funniest part of programming twitter will always be engineers dick measuring for the title of engineer and belittling others. This is why we cant have nice things
there’s a specific kind of engineering (that I will not mention) that is not really engineering

The fall of Call of Duty needs to be studied and taught in Universities. How do you go from Modern Warfare 19 and 22 to 23 and shit the bed that hard and then the lesson you take from it is "more of that" BO Cold War and 6 are fantastic, how did they go back to 2023?
