@birch_js Maybe I am missing something but when we use single character or iterative variables we would just //def <var>. This made it so we could quickly search codebases and point LLMs to defined if someone was using AI to poke

In online discourse, I feel like at this point in time the full ban for foul language (obviously severity) but common F bombs should just perme account silence except for friends. I say this because the ability to remove the profanity filter as a choice makes you signal the term is hidden from those who don’t want it vs those who’d prefer to not be exposed and offering a silencer. I do agree though, public discourse about not getting banned is probably my favorite threads to read because CS receipts.

After reading some of the replies, let me clarify my stance. I’m not here to defend a player on whether or not he was an asshole. Probably was, but I don’t care. 1/

There’s a profanity filter and 21 years of precedent to say this is kinda fucking silly unless there’s something worse, to be honest with ya.

@ayyyyluhmao I just looked at the logs, Cody. You seem to have a fondness for dropping F bombs. Even one, if reported, is enough. ^PJ

The fact that @Twitch doesn’t make the power move here is wild to me. Sure the system is useless for them in the short term, but the user experience is baked and creating a simplified system to get and go that’s already being harnessed…

Jonathan Blow is extremely influential as a thinker and critic, but his broader ecosystem impact is smaller than the scale of his critiques would imply. He has released games, as has many, but the industry hasn’t moved because of him. So the guardian angels defending him should just allow him to respond instead. He didn’t criticize him for making anything other than what he believes can be made with current toolset. Unless Jai is the sole reason this insane push puzzle can be possible for X reason, the accolade of making your own language to make your own game engine to make your own push puzzle is just your own pain point story and doesn’t affect a single person outside the employed. Unless I’m completely wrong, his influence is culturally/intellectually strong, but institutionally small compared to a Carmack/Sweeney/Newell/Muratori… Congrats on the launch to him and hopefully the 10yr dev cycle bears fruits of his labor.

I’m sure this looks odd to people who don’t fly weaponized aircraft with rocket attached to a seat, as well as someone who’s never been near air feats. The ‘stimming’ you see is a known technique to help simulate the thought outcome and tie the repeated calls to an actionable repetition response. Much like goons who play cop and shoot non moving targets with isolated hitboxes, the purpose of training is the natural response timing from the memory of action. Considering a gun shell costs 1-2$ish to train, a jet is a couple million with fuel cost around a couple hundred thousand to practice. So instead of blowing America’s defense budget on practice 24/7, they play flight in a board room, build the action the fly 1-2 a week to practice.

1 out of 10 Blue Angel pilots die in a crash. Maybe stimming in a board room pretending real hard to fly a plane is a stupid way to practice.

NGL IANAL but, consult your lawyers before you kill the contest. You can legally be liable for people who took you on your offer and spent money towards a project. While it’s there own personal responsibility, it falls legally on the orchestrated campaign being unfairly terminated without ground since the cancel isn’t written in your EULA/Terms for the amended change or clause. (Unless you wrote that) You should still hold the content contest and make one for in game and bite the bullet. Let the AI one die off and consider it a network loss. Your finance team should be able to cover it under expenses for user gain which didn’t come to fruition and make it a tax write off.

Hi everyone. We’d like to address the recent discussion around the AI video contest, and first of all, we’re sorry for upsetting players with this event. We’re also sorry that we didn’t communicate with everyone clearly enough before the event started. Our original goal was to lower the barrier to creation. In past contests, we saw players with great ideas and scripts who couldn’t fully bring them to life because they weren’t familiar with tools like editing, modeling, or animation software. We hoped AI could be a more accessible tool that lets more people take part. That said, we understand the concerns around AI content. We are not trying to dismiss handmade work or disrespect creators. To us, AI is just another tool. What we truly care about is the idea, the expression, and the final work. We’d like to leave the next step up to the community. Please vote on what we should do: 1. Cancel the AI video contest 2. Change it into a non-AI creation contest 3. Keep the AI category and add a separate handmade category If you have another suggestion outside of these three options, please feel free to share it as well. Thank you.

Hey @garrynewman I’d love to volunteer as tribute for the position of thumbnail approver/metrics and ensuring a standard policy compliance for submissions *cough* I have a pretty extensive background when it comes to bait, thumb-nailing, presentations and deck for investors. One thing that’s common for indie/solo/even small teams is they pay artists to make them who then kind of generate them pass them back etc. even when you don’t generate most of these thumbnails are attempting 2 different platform rules. It appears they are formatting the thumbnails like you would for YouTube bait, often confusing imagery that does not reflect value of time. Additionally they are grouping like a fortnight thumbnail since the audience is click dependent on “what value does this game offer” since images hit harder. In reality the problem is the focus on the thumbnail as the pivot decision on if you click through a game or not. I think there is a much better way to showcase and rank games, possibly clean up the noise for in progress vs completed and ranked sales that isn’t reliant on Jumbotron images. Anyways. Would love to chat sometime if you ever want to share the metrics side pain point/heat map of players browsing the site.

We're showing what we're about in this update. AI thumbnails don't mean the game is dog shit, but more than half the time it's misleading, which makes it hard for players to determine anything about a game from its thumbnail.
s&box@s8box

We're punishing AI thumbnails - if your game looks like generic slop, it'll rank lower 📉 We also talk about our Steam reviews 🫠 Plus FSR3 upscaling, a big physics update, review tag filtering and way more. sbox.game/news/update-26…

Hot take.. maybe don’t make a personality out of going on excursions to freedom flop bigotry while preparing yourself for self defense. He can say what he wants, I know because that’s why I served, but his guise isn’t freedom of speech, it’s free protection because he has freedom of speech. He isn’t doing positive, is making vitriol content because intimidation of camera, presenting yourself with self defense then spitting out nonsense to bait for swing first. Whatever hero slob knob you have for this guy isn’t it.

You don’t have to like Chud the Builder to believe that freedom of speech is an absolute right of all Americans. No words are off limits in a free country and assaulting someone over a word is third world, low IQ, low emotional intelligence behavior. Type it out. Say it loud. Carry everywhere.

@Rhopunzel Lmao. It’s funny not funny. I’m surprised you didn’t just get a fix it ticket to prove it was fixed :/ I got a speeding ticket once because the cop heard my engines blow off valve and said that I was purposely expelling road noise. It was a stock car.

So the driver parked illegally and the state police enforced a parking violation? In America I can park in front of a Starbucks and walk into the gas station next door and have my car towed. Unless republicans I guess change that, then I’m ok with a 40$ ticket vs a 300$ impound.
Eric Daugherty@EricLDaugh

🚨 The Chinese Communists have just TICKETED the Fox News crew, using their abundance of surveillance cameras placed around Beijing! BRET BAIER: "There are literally cameras everywhere...they see everything...our driver parked illegally for 2 MINUTES and got a ticket for $40!" "Because they saw it, on the camera." This is Communism! It's what the Democrats want.

I told you this would happen in my interaction with you last Thursday, Dalton aka ChudtheBuilder. This content you’re creating has a shelf life. You have painted yourself as a racist on a national scale, even with the NY Post publishing an article about your arrest. There was always going to be backlash and now you’re at the “Find Out” portion of your FAFO experience. Heed the FBIs warning and figure out another way because this is no longer sustainable. Every day you do this act of perverting the first amendment and using it as a veil to spew racist rhetoric and baiting people into responses for content while being armed is another day you put your life in danger along with others. You have a son. Be better. Do better. If not for yourself, do it for him.

ChudTheBuilder becomes sad realizing he can’t continue to harass Black Americans after pressure from FBI and police.
