A long but very good article on #gamedev that gets into why graphic fidelity isn't what's "ruined games" and why AI isn't the magic bullet every industry spectator and speculator wants it to be.

By his own words, we learn what an inveterate liar, speculator, purveyor of conspiracy theories this grifter is. Add more of your own.

The fascism of Mosley and his organization were their downfall.

Boris Johnson's downfall came because he's a liar and he backed another tory liar.

Heed well NF!

I genuinely hate the speculator market that comic shops do. I honestly don’t know how long it’s been a thing but it sucks when you maybe didn’t know about something that looks interesting, but can’t get to the shop before they raise the price (i have to drive to the city to get to the nearest shop).

"Wholesalers look to get unlisted homes under contract at a discount and then sell or assign that contract to another speculator before finalizing the property transfer — acting as a middleman and pocketing a profit along the way." From Kevin Hardy via @stateline.org
The signs offer quick cash for homes. But states want more oversight. • New Hampshire Bulletin
The signs, text messages and mailers promise cash, quick sales and a seamless means of unloading unwanted homes. But advocates say the business of buying homes for cash can confuse vulnerable…

yeah! and i think folks across the band are familiar with the process of the combo of feeling and thought, and one ruling the other (or they should be, by adulthood, lol). But even at the bleeding edge of speculative math or science, the speculator has a feeling that is pre-cognition.

Marvel once again demonstrating that they didn't learn a single goddamn thing from their 90s Speculator Bubble-induced bankruptcy... Just suffocate me with a mylar bag already if this is the grift with "Infinity Vision" screenings going forward...

“The American myth of the lonely cowboy was never the whole truth, but it was perpetuated because men like Gilpin and his modern-day counterparts profited from it. A man alone is easy to take advantage of.”

I mean almost every hobby has one.
The difference between people who just buy trading card games and play is fucked as Hell.
I hate the whole speculator boom with cards and comics from the 90’s.

The autograph thing makes sense for me since you have to make up the egregious price of the table itself, and since you have speculator dingbats coming around with longboxes full of crap to sign. (Hey dingbats: Don't do that!)
#1 is how did we not learn the lesson to not attend these events while ill from the last six plus years

#2 is how the speculator boom has forced comic creators to charge upwards of $10 PER BOOK for autographs.

Or if you want to go deep, The Speculator, about how the speculation market leaps in and ruins it for the collectors of things by creating a bubble that bursts. But with knives and shit, because horror.

On this date in 1869, Wall Street had its first “Black Friday.” Stocks plummeted after word leaked that speculator Jay Gould, who was trying to corner the gold market, had sold his stake in the metal.

yeah. I do think she has a *bit* of a sequencing problem because we'll win in 2028 meaning the next open cycle is '36, and she'd be likely to get only a single term then, but at that point things get very speculator
