Steve Bannon did not just appear out of nowhere in 2016. This video follows the timeline of how a network of billionaire funding, media platforms, opposition research groups, and data companies helped shape modern online politics. From Breitbart News and the Mercer family, to Cambridge Analytica, Rebel Media, Gatestone Institute, Clinton Cash, Milo Yiannopoulos, Ben Shapiro, Lauren Southern, and Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign, this is the story of how the ecosystem was built. Topics covered: - Steve Bannon - Breitbart News - Robert Mercer & Rebekah Mercer - Cambridge Analytica - Government Accountability Institute - Peter Schweizer - Clinton Cash - Rebel Media - Gatestone Institute - Milo Yiannopoulos - Ben Shapiro - Lauren Southern - Donald Trump 2016 campaign - Alt-right media ecosystem - Political influence networks - Online political radicalization - Culture war media This is only one thread of a much bigger story. #SteveBannon #Breitbart #Trump #CambridgeAnalytica #Mercer #Politics #Documentary #History #RebelMedia #BenShapiro #LaurenSouthern #MiloYiannopoulos #PoliticalCommentary #AlternativeMedia youtu.be/pXOpbeJmYYE?si…

@IanCutress Still Xbox controller

What controller are people using on PC these days?

@AnnazPlays @AzFlin Now that MCP servers are getting good I think we will see vibe coding start to move into the main game engines.

@AzFlin and people still are promoting game vibeecoding apps😭

to all the people vibecoding games FYI the "coding" part of a game is very easy now and takes maybe 25~% tops of the work the bulk of it is artwork, assets + animations, map design, game design, and iteration and none of that is easily AI-able

@ProjectConstitu Exposed and allegedly in the same sentence.

‼️EXPOSED: FBI Allegedly SITTING ON Additional Doorbell Cam FOOTAGE Showing Charlie Kirk’s Patsy With a FEMALE Accomplice and a GETAWAY Car 👀 Candace Owens revealed that she received a tip claiming the FBI was withholding critical doorbell camera footage from the Charlie Kirk assassination. According to the source, the footage — which was given to the FBI by a neighbor — shows the alleged patsy changing clothes with the help of a woman. The homeowner can be heard on camera wondering out loud whether the girl was an accomplice. Even more disturbing: In the original footage, a blue car pulls up directly in front of the house at the exact moment the patsy is walking up the driveway toward the street. At least two individuals appear to be getting into the vehicle. However, the version released to the public (including the clip TMZ obtained the very next morning) was intentionally cropped and zoomed to cut out the blue car and the people getting inside. This raises serious questions: -Who was the woman seen helping the patsy change clothes? -Why did the FBI crop out the blue car and the people getting into it? -Was this a coordinated getaway that the public was never told about? If this footage is real, it completely destroys the “lone gunman” narrative. It suggests the patsy had help — both a female accomplice and a getaway vehicle — and that federal authorities may have deliberately hidden that information from the public. FOLLOW @RealCandaceO — she continues to expose what the official story tries to hide. RT this. More people need to see this.

@falconerd Rejected for what?

The key art for my game LANE-4 got rejected 4 times by Valve. It didn't get approved until after the Cerebral Puzzle Showcase and being so close to Next Fest I pulled out of that. The night before Cerebral Puzzle Showcase started, I was laying in bed, stressed out of my mind, hoping Valve would approve the art. I got an email at just after midnight: Rejected, again. That's when I thought: "Why am I doing this to myself? Stressing myself out, trying to get this approved quickly when I know I can do a better job on this game if I take more time." I started building the custom 3D pipeline for LANE-4 using Vulkan--right now I'm working on volumetrics, general lighting, and trying to eliminate TAA ghosting. There's a lot of work to do. I'll be posting more updates here.

@paxtonpearl_dsm @SunWeatherMan Have you considered seeing a therapist yet?

Because someone is monitoring these high profile social media stars with a custom gematria algorithm, acting as a predictive spatial awareness lens. (Looking glass) The death of Charlie Kirk had an insane alignment of things outside of human control. Shawn Ryan posts picture with Candace Owens 6/19/2026. “Shawn Ryan Candace Owens” geometry coincides with “rest in peace Scott Adam’s”. Take the date of Scott Adam’s 1/13/2026, the hours contain a direct reversal of the Latin/hebrew number. I’m not going to post it but Candace has a lot of omens in her numbers 6-19-24th Someone is calculating and spreading these messaging to either try and front run and stop something or they think they are literally manifesting outcomes if they get enough eyes on it.

Conspiracy theory. A bunch of people were given advanced warning and scripts for an assassination that didn't happen. One person didn't get the cancel order. Then had to delete the tweet. The look on Shawn's face says "Nice try, but we won't this round" Don't worry, this is probably the crazy side of me... I mean.... she's annoying but who would possibly want her dead?

@james_xond Doesn't almost everybody go to high-school?

People who went to high school: Did you actually dissect a frog in science class?

@jun_song This is not true at all. I still use gpt 4mini for a lot of by bots. Some use multiple models. Its just about cost efficiency. If a cheaper model can handle a task then 🤷. Unless you are just talking about vibe coders.

The dropping cost per AI intelligence doesn't matter. Model intelligence is relative, and people only use the latest models. Even if the current GPT-5.5 becomes cheaper next year, no one will use it. It's the exact same as Gemini-2.0-Flash. It was top-tier last year and is almost free now, but nobody uses it.

@OlexGameDev Most developers are not thinkers? That's a wild claim.

AI is a tool for the thinker. Most devs are not thinkers, which is why they either (1) state that AI will replace all the work and all the thinking or (2) state that AI is useless and cannot assist a capable engineer. Both of these groups are wrong. But if you have an active mind and you are honestly thinking and judging your work then you will find where AI tools help you and where they don't.

Do you have longer videos or a demo? I am not trying to be mean but from a devs perspective this is not really showing anything except art and lighting. The mechanics and gameplay shown here is very simple stuff, like the dragon moves like a normal character controller with gravity turned off.

No game studio. No team. Solo developed. @HermesWorldAI With Claude + GPT and Hermes/ OpenClaw Agents. You can build anything right now. Focus on your harness. Your agentic skills, memory, orchestration loops. You can just build shit.

@ziwenxu_ Are you tracking the sum of compute power being spent? Even though loop agents can do really impressive stuff, it does seem a bit brute force rather than intelligence and I am very interested in the costs of these methods.

A loop of AI agents built me a gun. It just can't make it shoot. Day 11 of building GTA 6 with a loop of agents. Yesterday I said today they'd learn to steal cars and shoot. Today's progress: - 2 weapons in - Pickup system works (we can grab weapons now) The downside: you pull the trigger, nothing happens. The loop is incredible at the overall, but shooting is the main part of the game, so I think we wire this one up ourselves. So here is the progress I'm taking shooting and sitting down to learn the physics myself with agent as support. At the same time @notjazii takes driving by hand. The agents keep doing what they're good at. They're building out the police system and the economy right now, while I type this. Also spent the weekend in SF at a Tripo3D Donut event learning 3D art.

Solo devs will scale up their workload but so will companies. As long as companies prefer renting cpu over paying for their own hardware and staff, there will be demand for data centers. There will also be heaps (already is) of solo devs that will need more than a $5000 pc for their workload.

What happens to the datacenter economy if / when we have GPT 5.5-level models running on $5,000 desktops in our homes and offices?

I think we are on a path to human involvement in the development of video games ending at the docs pretty much. A new format of design docs like GDDs and TDDs will become standard and that is what the prompts are. I am going to test this by making a TDD that is split into sections or components and then feed them to Codex and see if we can make a solid grey box version of a game.

@andytouch Well you missing out man.

As a former Unity die-hard (did a 15 year run of it but now haven't opened it in well over a year) this meme cuts me to my core. 🤣

@Govindtwtt What do you mean you can't find where a variable came from? Just hover over it and press f12 or whatever binding your IDE uses.

I genuinely don’t understand how people vibe code entire apps. The moment AI changes more than a couple of files and I can’t tell where a variable came from, my anxiety spikes.

@34kInferno @Pirat_Nation Machines have absolute limits, you know, like cpu and gpu power, memory capacity, RAM etc. Lay off that Crack pipe bro.

@Pirat_Nation Even the highest IQ man has a limit. A machine has no limits. Fuck those entry level tasks.

Former Dragon Age writer David Gaider says AI could make game development “frustrating as hell” because developers may end up spending more time fixing AI-generated work. He also worries about the future of the industry, asking, “How are we going to train up the next generation of devs if we eliminate every entry-level task?” According to Gaider, new developers need those early jobs to learn and build experience, and removing them could create problems for the industry in the long run.

@Wertandrew Just because a game is good or popular does not mean it is complex or advanced or a benchmark. I don't think anybody is saying you cannot make a good game with BPs.

Seeing the reaction from the comments, I no longer feel the Imposter Syndrome when I raised this in UEFN feedback and got slammed by everyone for “being lazy” to learn Verse, for years. Expedition 33 was all created in BPs and is the most awarded game ever. We are putting the tools above the product here, the goal is the end experience and getting there faster means a lot to people that direct vision. Wait till the UE devs see the iteration times or the “always latest build” issues, they are in for a treat.

@brandon_xyzw @alightinastorm The flickering is just overlapping mesh faces.

@alightinastorm The whole thing is flickering and lagging?

asked codex to optimize it even more, it created a "PagedGeometryStream", which forces pcg producers to emit chunks of max 64k vertices zero lags! smooth geometry streaming achieved internally on threejs theoretically speaking this should now make it compatible with the new nanite-like shader so i could probably skip LOD generation! wild

@alightinastorm Vibe coding didn't start on X. It was all over Reddit way before X.

never forget vibe coding games started on x, it grew (grows) on x, elon musk saw it on x, decided to go all in on grok ai games and then he didn't consult any of us, ever but hired an exceptional and secret all star team who never delivered anything, ever ????

@icreatelife I use it for work and personal projects but I have a lot of fun just experimenting with it.

I am curious who here are doing AI just for fun, not to get a job or become an influencer but simply to have fun

@games_inu Is that a problem? There is AI code in almost every piece of software made post 2025. If you don't learn how to use AI tools you are going to be out of work soon.

According to github search there are 974 em dashes in #UE5 code right now. This is without counting "--" version... 🤔
