Why are devs so 'pro-AI' while artists are so 'anti'? 🗣️
It feels like coders are leaning into the tech to work faster, but creators are genuinely angry and frustrated by it.
Is the difference just that programmers are used to constant change, or is the impact on their jobs just fundamentally different?
Would love to hear some insights on why these two groups are reacting so differently!

@imaginecurve I've been stuck on a "Couldn't verify you, contact support" brick wall for weeks. Nobody from support ever reached back. I've gone through verification with my passport via the app. I have excellent credit, a mortgage, etc.

@nsinghal211 No education, no job standards, a culture of servitude, blame and disrespect. Half the so-called "software developers" from India that make it to the UK aren't even able to use the command line.

A writer so successful that today is a day dedicated to him in schools all over the country thinks it is reasonable that he travels for free due to his age. People have to stop taking things they do not need, it is wrong and it is bankrupting our country.

My Freedom Pass doesn't work. I went to the website to get a replacement Freedom Pass. It won't let me get a replacement Freedom Pass because the website says 'You do not currently have an active Freedom Pass.'

@kirawontmiss The answer is undefined. Which is not to say there's no answer.

@PaulTassi @Forbes Power levels should be entirely abolished and substituted for loot tiers instead and proper difficulty levels.

@joshmanders @catalinmpit It does not have a browser per se. Some apps use an embedded browser to display content, but you can't really use it for anything. You wouldn't be able to justify it to the taxman in a million years.

@catalinmpit Does the PS5 have a web browser?
Congratulations, it's work equipment because you have to ensure your company's app works correctly on all users browsers.

@catalinmpit Unless your business activity involves gaming, you can't. An XBOX Series X however... you can put it in developer mode, so if you're a software engineer you can use it for game development.

@Bluedrake42 @OpHarshDoorstop You're a fucking idiot to antagonise streamers like that. And good luck suing anyone.

A warning to every content creator when our update for @OpHarshDoorstop drops. If you have taken over $10,000 USD in payments from studios we compete with in the last 12 months and you don’t disclose that in any “review” you create about our game, then you and I will have legal problems.
You aren’t an “independent journalist” you are a paid contractor for our competitor, and I’m tired of watching you all get paid off to do hit pieces on games that don’t fork cash over to you.
I will post more warnings clarifying this as we get closer to the release date… but TL:DR if you’re just going to post fake content attacking games that don’t pay you off, then quite frankly I don’t want you covering our game at all.
I know this might come as a shock to many of you who are used to community managers being paid off to stroke your ego and beg you for coverage, but you’ll find out very quickly that we don’t operate that way.
Every single person who retweets this will receive a Steam key to our launch playtest, I want to figure out which of you all are the good ones. I don’t want fake people in my corner.

Actual hardware capture of the latest build of jnmartin's #Doom 64 port to the Sega #Dreamcast, which has now become the definitive, prettiest way to enjoy the title, with its dynamic lighting and bump mapping. SO MUCH NEW SHIT TO TALK ABOUT:
First of all, this is the very first game to utilize the brand new "hybrid" vertex submission mechanism we just added to KallistiOS. It was a long, cruel week to get all of the issues there sorted out, but they have been, and it has further boosted the game's performance while under load and is now something the rest of the DC community can utilize in their homebrew. This scene in particular used to lag using the traditional, DMA-based vertex submission mechanism with all of the lights and its higher geometric complexity, but notice it's not even dropping a frame now!
Next, support for the Dreamcast's MOUSE and KEYBOARD have been added. These controls play EXTREMELY well and feel like a very smooth, natural way to play the game, if you want the Steam/PC control scheme.
Finally... if there is any doubt as to whether the Dreamcast version is actually the definitive way to the play the game, jnmartin now allows you to export the assets from the (LEGALLY PURCHASED, DAMNIT!!!) Steam version, and import them into the Dreamcast version, where you can enjoy the extra bonus levels and campaign with the new and improved graphics!
THIS IS NOW PUBLICLY AVAILABLE! The project repository, along with the README with build instructions can be found here: github.com/jnmartin84/doo…

@BuckCllr @lambethltnwatch @lambeth_council @RezinaChowdhury @WestDulwichLab Step 1, close roads
Step 2, traffic jams
Step 3, people stop driving a much and take public transport, walk, or cycle
Step 4, done
English

@lambethltnwatch @lambeth_council @RezinaChowdhury @WestDulwichLab Who would have thought it? If you close roads, it pushes more traffic in to less roads and caused more congestion. I mean, no one could have predicted this would happen?
English

West Dulwich LTN: Lancaster Road on Monday 23rd Sept 2024 at 16:45 backed up from West Norwood. Have never seen this amount of traffic in all the time I have lived in this area and walked along this road. Drivers getting restless and tooting at the lights in West Norwood. Lancaster and Rosendale are certainly taking the brunt of the traffic changes.
