This holiday season, why not treat your friends, family, and enemies to some MissingNo horror fan fiction?
My guy, everything you've said was the future over the last decade (remember the phone!) has turned out to be a useless piece of shit! Nobody in their right mind should believe you!

I've overhauled the way I browse online yet again. I was using Reeder to consolidate RSS and socials into one list, but found I was missing a lot as I scrolled. I've reverted to Reeder Classic for RSS and the native apps/sites for socials. We'll see how long that lasts.

The way I look at big first-party Nintendo releases is that they're usually the best-in-genre by Nintendo. Breath of the Wild is the best open-world title they've ever made, and Metroid Prime is their best FPS. I struggle with the praise heaped on the company because there are often much better games in those categories made by other studios that are conveniently ignored by the media and the public.
The search for AI in Fortnite may have been escalated by recent comments made by Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney, who posted in a discussion on X that he doesn’t think digital game stores need to flag the use of AI during development, because it will soon become widespread.

Over the last four years, the company--which has been in serious financial and legal trouble for a very long time--sure has been excited to hitch its cart (and its workers, resources and reputation) to whatever picture of a horse the latest Silicon Valley huckster has forwarded into CEO Yves Guillemot's inbox that week.

I genuinely don’t understand the hype behind Expedition 33 and it practically sweeping The Game Awards nominations. It’s a good game, but I played better stuff this year that wasn’t even nominated.
I’m at the point where, if I see that the social media account where someone shares their art was created in mid-2022, unless they clearly state otherwise, I assume their work is largely AI-generated.
Microsoft paying $70 billion for Activision and then cranking out the worst-performing Call of Duty in recent memory is so fucking funny.
The company will be spending a nauseating $620 billion per year on renting data center capacity to power its AI models alone.

I use Claude Code to create small personal projects and tools, none of which I’d ever consider sharing with others, especially children. It's pretty fucked up that some people are cool cranking out LLM-powered junk for kids and charging money for it.
In PIRG’s tests using the LLM that once powered ChatGPT, Kumma gave tips for “being a good kisser,” and with persistent but simple prompting even launched into detailed rants explaining sexual kinks and fetishes, like bondage and teacher-student roleplay.

Granted, I haven’t finished it yet, but so far, Silly Polly Beast is fucking awesome.

First Demonschool and now Moonlighter 2? I don't have time to play everything, guys. I will play everything, though, don't worry.
