Hiya, I'm Nostalgia Ninja!

I'm a 3D artist making low-poly stylized models in Blender. I work during the week and stream games and art over the weekend.

I play many games, but Puyo Puyo Chronicle is my favorite!

Feels awkward doing afternoon streams so late. Might shift back to 5PM to 7PM depending how I feel (and dependent on weather)

Going to be a couple minutes late to stream, but have everything set up. Had a disconnection I needed to check out and I've got some tracking issues I'm resolving at the moment.

"Your brains stop developing at age 25" was a press misrepresentation of a study. They wanted to see if brains continued to develop after adolescence, so the study was capped at age 25.

A later study with a wider subject pool showed that brains are ALWAYS developing our whole lives.
this is why it's my pet peeve fake science fact. It's absolute bs! nothing happens to brains at age 25, they do not "fully mature". you will notice that many societies have an age of majority or coming-of-age or whatever and none of them have ever chosen mid-20s.
Many people seem to be confused on this point.

The GOP is passing/intro'ing bills banning GAC up to & including the age of 25 on the theory that brains don't fully mature til then.

In public they call them bans on "minor" care.

It's a deliberate GOP strategy to make themselves seem less radical.

Life... is beautiful.

Man, I miss the ZSNES interface. Not as great as KGEN before it but still, emulators were innovative with their UIs.

Fortnite supports Fascists, encourages the use of Generative AI, lays off thousands of workers and ends up being a tool of hatred.

I'm glad I have never touched Fortnite since Epic Games screwed me over with Rocket League.
so why the fuck are you still playing Fortnite?

90% of your userbase don't like AI and you're burning your bridges by doing this. I use a fork since it's been stripped of this AI nonsense.

What are you doing..? Aren't you supposed to be a pioneer of the Free and Open Web? This sounds like you're working against that goal.
We believe an open web starts with choice. That includes AI models.

We’re excited to be partnering with Mistral to bring open-source AI to Firefox Smart Window beta and expand access to France, with French-language support.

Them: You should use softer language and fit into society.

Me: Why? Society wants me dead. Why would I want to fit in to that?

Them: You swear too much, you should use soft language and be less angry at society.

Me: Fuck you, fuck society, fuck your conformity bullshit puritan standards.

Again, why do people who use Generative AI so dishonest? It gains you nothing and it makes you to be a terrible person when (not if) you get caught.

How long has this been going?
Shock and horror, BJ Buttman uses GenAI to make children's "hip hop" and lies about it?? Exploiters gonna exploit!

Notice he *complains* about having to run his wildly successful record label that has been stealing money and labor for 10+ years lol

Yes, I also got the email about Dj Cutman using genAI for his side projects. Spoke w/my peers about the matter, and since I've released tracks on GC, done collabs with Chris (which is why my name was brought up), plus my OWN community reaching out, here are my thoughts & what actions I've taken:

This will be a hilarious social experiment if users get to point out how the system can be gamed against people who think they can be trolls.

Personally I'd like to see them try, but hey. Let them fuck this site up. I can't wait to see how they backtrack on this.

Did you know that crunch is a sign of a problem needing to be resolved and that it's incredibly unprofessional? Employees shouldn't feel pressured to do more for their bottom line.

Seriously. Even if you are a monster, a person driven to hurt other people, an absolute piece of shit…

Even THEN all the data demonstrates that prolonged crunch lowers productivity.

Those who cling to it are ignorant, and with the evidence available, actively and intentionally so.
I really REALLY need game devs, and especially those who are in higher up positions, indie or otherwise, to clue into the fact that crunching away for weeks or months of a time is neither normal nor something you should wear as a badge of honour.

Transcoding some video in the background of work and I'm surprised how low resource it is. It didn't tank any of my work at all considering the RAM demand I have on work.

It seems some people really didn’t get what I meant with my original post, so let me to guide y’all through Chilean game economics.
A new Switch 2 game here is closing dangerously to $100 physical. A purchase of it in the eShop is still steep.
I legitimately don’t have the money for it.

I found out that I literally can't play Constance due to my burnout and overwhelm. I'll play it sometime once I've had a proper break, but the themes triggered an anxiety attack when I last played.

I want to be able to live off my poetry but the current landscape requires most authors to:

do our own marketing
build our own audiences
multiple social media accounts

I love community work so I don't mind what I do mind is the normalisation of free labour in capitalism for creators.
