Pixar receives a $26.2 Million Tax credit to keep film jobs in CA, and immediately lays off 10% of its work force, after making over a billion from Toy Story 5, the highest-grossing film of 2026.
Pixar's Layoffs Came Days After Receiving a $26 Million Tax Credit. So I Wrote California Officials.
State tax incentives should create and retain jobs for Californians, not subsidize corporate layoffs.

Steam has toterated and outright ignored claims of review-bombing, but this game called Plantation Simulator is a step too far. It needs to be banned from the platform ASAP.

If you were someone pinging critics with ‘it’s just lighting cleanup’ a few days ago, I need you to use this as a jumping off point to thinking about your susceptibility to talking points and marketing rhetoric more generally. It was right there in front of all of our faces.
Nvidia has confirmed that the new DLSS 5 algorithm is redrawing games based on a 2D image input and motion data. https://bit.ly/4smPOCx

great reporting here. basically yes DLSS 5 is running a gen AI model on the 2D output and nothing more. it doesn’t know anything about the 3D scene, textures / models / lighting / PBR other than what the model infers by looking at a frame.
TL:DR, they sped up slop.

i'm definitely at the point where i'm suspicious that super positive "leaked" reviews and impressions are essentially market manipulation.
