So like, I use Ollama like I have no usage limits, with Deepseek v4.1 Flash. And honestly, I never run out. I use it all day, having it work on Gaming accessibility mod stuff. No I am not releasing anything yet. And I just plain never run out of AI. #AI #Ollama

Sony pissed off the gaming community so much that they used AI to speed up the PS5 jailbreak, and in two weeks it's supporting everything from PSP, Vita, PS1 to 5, *RUNNING BETTER*, including Xbox 360 and earlier, and everything from Nintendo Switch 1 I fucking love 2026 ☺️😂😂😂🤘🔥🔥🔥

"Hey Astra, make me a Mac app. It should render a 3D iPod that you'll build in Blender, then using the original iPod UI and interactions I want to be able to visualize all my Codex threads on it." 15 minutes later: Boom. What's even in this model? What time we're living in!??

Replying to @MatthewBerman
I feel valued as a customer with Openai. I can't say the same for many other companies...

Wtf...
We will give one banked reset for every day you don't have access to Astra on your paid ChatGPT plan, starting today. Team is moving mountains to give access as fast as we can. First one will land in ~ 3 hours. There is still time to create your account if you don't have one.

This is great news to read about! Thanks for sharing all this with us @alyabani94.
Until Dawn 2 Accessibility Features appear to be really promising for blind players •Screen Reader (Advanced)
The screen reader will fully communicate contextual text and visual information essential to gameplay. •Visual Cue Alternatives
Visual information is also communicated through audio or controller vibration. • •Adjustable Difficulty (Advanced)
You can customise the level of challenge or activate a range of assists individually to help you play the game. •Simplified Quick Time Events
You can reduce the level of challenge for quick time events (actions where you must match on-screen prompts within a time limit). • Can’t wait for the full accessibility feature list Thanks @FirespriteGames

Men are claiming women can’t be trusted to vote because we can be “incapacitated by hormones”. Men lash out violently ALL the time. Domestic violence skyrockets when their team loses a football game. A woman tells them “No” and they assault her. Should they lose their rights?

"No one is forcing you to work at the job you hate." I think you will find that the threat of starvation, homelessness, unpaid bills,and loosing access to basic healthcare is fairly coercive.

Undiagnosed neurodivergence is like being handed a video game that has been set to hard mode, but having people tell you over and over "it's on easy, why do you keep dying? " Diagnosis is learning the game is on hard mode. It doesn't make it easier, but you can strategize.

A new model from @OpenAI is out today, GPT-5.6 Astra. You know what that means? It’s live streaming time! As always, whenever I get access to the model, I’ll go live on my YouTube channel and put it to work. Keep an eye on my profile for when I schedule the stream. #OpenAI #GPTAstra #AI

‼️POPULAR GAMING OPINION‼️ Being an introvert, staying home to play games, read books and do my nerd hobbies is better than going out and partying.

The longer I work in corporate, the more I realize... they will make you feel lucky to have the job while underpaying you to do three jobs.

If you’re neurodivergent, you’ll understand this instantly: Rest isn’t rest if you’re still being perceived

I’ve got a friend who was non functional after a few hours with a GI bug. I gently pointed out their symptoms matched the ones I deal with every single day. Their response? “You’re used to it. It’s not the same”. That’s how disabled people are treated in a nutshell.

“Authors, please use easy words in your books” is a sentence designed in a lab to upset me. You only learn by reading things that challenge you. This idea that we should only ever be exposed to things we know already is deeply incurious and anti-intellectual.
English is my L2, yet I know what "scrying" means thanks to fantasy. Authors use precise words because worldbuilding demands precision. There’s no shame in not knowing a word, learning it is easy. But complaining because a book asks you to expand your vocabulary? Pure laziness.

So I've never been great at creating video content, so I typically write instead. I'd like to invite everyone to check out my Substack and subscribe over at michaeldoise.com where I write about AI and other technology.

Working on a very long video reading every single codex entry from Mass Effect 3 and it's reminding me how much I love the Mass Effect universe. Need 500 more stories in it 😭
