Not only must we bear the indignity of a Second Starbucks on Lambton Quay but they're advertising their pumpkin spice drinks now too. It's fucking SPRING you yankee bastards

Have I played “Control Resonant”? Sorry…I’m too busy reading the story of a man who “Controls Rocinante”…that’s right, Miguel Cervantes’ immortal tale “Don Quixote de La Mancha”. So you enjoy your strange “Federal Bureau”…I’ll be delighting in the adventures of Sancho Panza and his “Friendly Burro”

Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. I have zero nostalgia for JSR, the gameplay is really dull, don't like the music or the writing, it's smug aura mocks me.
No hate, no dogpiling, just curious.

For me, it's Skyrim. Don't know why, considering it should be exactly my kind of game, but it just didn't click for me.

Best part of Big Walk is I can say my terrible jokes and get iced by my friends and think "oh nobody heard it because of positional audio I'll try it again later" all evening

How can you tell it's Bandcamp Friday? Just look for the emails from your favourite artists announcing "Deluxe CD Editions" and "Album: The Remixes"

Hey folks, just want to let you know that the launch sale ends in 24 hours. The game is $6 rn, which I hear is basically $5, but it'll go up to $8 tomorrow which I hear is basically $10. So really when you think about it if you buy today you're getting the game for 50% off. What a deal
Jenny the Witch is OUT NOW on Steam and Itch. We're so excited to have this thing in your hands. If you pick the game up, please leave a review!

There’s way too much slop, fake animals and misinformation around, including the example Franz is highlighting below.

So here’s a thread about spotting the fake stuff and reducing this crap on your timeline.
(1/?)
In case you missed it, the account mrrobertbob posted an extremely viral but misleading pic of a "flapjack octopus" who then blocked everyone who correctly pointed out it was GenAI.

Stop sharing posts with images without credit/provenance. Lots of fakes/grifter accounts out there.
Unfortunately this seems to me like another example of a real animal, slopped by AI 😡🦑

Check these source images from @mbarinews.bsky.social who actually observed it. No frontal "mouth" (just a fold between arms further down at most), no suckers visible when on the bottom, eyes less forward

I feel like nobody's saying "jumbo jet" any more. everyone just says "Airbus A380" or "Boeing 747". another instance of the decline of whimsy...
