@GergelyOrosz Shouldn’t a company like Zapier have incredible workflow training data? I feel like they could make automation easier and cheaper with a model purpose built for workflow automation

One of the cruelest things poverty takes from you is the freedom to make mistakes. Every decision has to work.

[Theo.Caldwell @Theo_pnp]

Being a MAN is perpetually solving problems gracefully. You can be in a war but you must walk as if you’re in a sanctuary.

Adversity is inevitable.

[alexei @alexeixbt]

i am obsessed with the concept of collapsing timelines. like what do you mean your entire life can change in 6 months because of one decision, one person, one opportunity, one random yes??? you are literally one plot twist away from a completely different life.

Something I wish I knew when I was 20

there are entire industries and categories of jobs that are organized on the idea: “the people who hold these jobs are married to someone who pays the bills or they have family money. We don’t have to worry about what a “living wage” for a single person is”

@BuddyNoLove The youth told me to search something and add a curse word and it's back to old Pinterest, no Ai at all.

A NOTE FROM BETHESDA GAME STUDIOS

We love making these worlds as much as you love playing in them. Today, we want to share what's next for Bethesda Game Studios and what you can expect from us in the years ahead.

For forty years, we've built games that have entertained almost half a billion players. More than just games, these are worlds. Worlds for you to explore, shape, and make your own. Worlds we return to together.

That's what's driving us forward. We're investing more deeply in the worlds players love, giving creators a bigger role in shaping their experiences, and bringing our teams closer together so we can get our games into your hands sooner, support them longer, and continue building them alongside you for decades to come.

STARFIELD CONTINUES

With over 17 million players logging almost a billion hours to date, Starfield remains an important part of our future. As we enter Year 3, we'll continue expanding the Settled Systems with new stories, targeted gameplay improvements, and additional updates, while preparing for the launch of new Starborn content next year. More than 40% of players already customize their experience through Creations, and we'll continue investing in creators and giving players new ways to make Starfield their own.

CREATED BY PLAYERS

We've believed from the beginning that our worlds belong not only to the people who make them, but also to the people who play them. That's why we've long provided players with the tools to create their own experiences, dating back to the Morrowind Construction Set. This year marked another major milestone for Creations with its expansion to Fallout 4, joining Skyrim and Starfield. We're proud to say Creators have already earned more than $10 million in royalties from their work.

THE FUTURE OF FALLOUT

Fallout is one of our biggest priorities today. Fallout 5 remains our long-range destination, and we have multiple Fallout projects in active development right now.

Fallout 76 continues to be home to millions of players exploring Appalachia together. With nearly 70 free updates released to date, the journey is far from over. In fact, we have a major Fallout 76 expansion planned for next year: Raven Rock, a prequel story to Fallout 3.
Fallout 4, the most award-winning game in the franchise, just celebrated its 10-year anniversary and recently passed over 35 million copies sold, continuing to attract a new audience every year.

We also know many players want to revisit previous Fallout experiences. While we're not announcing any dates today, we have been working on remasters for both Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas.

Fallout Shelter continues to be the most popular way to experience Fallout on the go, with more than 250 million players. There’s more ahead for Fallout Shelter, including new Seasons. An unscripted Fallout Shelter television project is also in the works with our partners at Amazon Studios and Kilter Films.

We'd like to congratulate Kilter Films and Amazon Studios on the 10 Emmy nominations for Fallout Season 2. Production on Season 3 is already underway.

And while we won't host a traditional Fallout Day broadcast this year, we're already planning something special for Fallout's 30th anniversary in 2027, when Fallout Day will be celebrated live in Washington, D.C.

STUDIO COLLABORATION

The wasteland continues to expand as we team up once again with our longtime friends at Obsidian Entertainment. We're happy to confirm they're working with us on a new Fallout project. We'll have more to share in the future.

We're also bringing our teams closer together across Bethesda. ZeniMax Online Studios will partner closely with Bethesda Game Studios on The Elder Scrolls franchise, while continuing to deliver incredible new experiences for The Elder Scrolls Online. Season One: Return of the Thieves Guild recently launched, and the team has more planned for the future. By aligning more directly across the franchise, we can create even better experiences for players.

Bringing our teams closer together is helping us build a stronger foundation for everything we create next.

THE ELDER SCROLLS AND BEYOND

That foundation extends beyond our teams to the technology, tools, and systems that will power the next generation of Bethesda RPGs.

Our teams are now developing The Elder Scrolls VI and Fallout 5 on Creation Engine 3, a shared technology platform we've been building since Starfield's launch. It allows our teams to support multiple projects simultaneously with new tools, rendering, and systems that define our games.

Fallout 5 is currently in preproduction. The Elder Scrolls VI is our primary development focus today, with the majority of our team currently working on the next chapter of the franchise. With over 65 million copies sold, players are still exploring Skyrim 15 years later, but we know it’s been a very long wait for the sequel.
The next chapter is on the way. We’re where we planned to be, loving how it looks, and playing it every day.

THE ROAD AHEAD

Across Bethesda Game Studios, we're building for the future of Fallout, The Elder Scrolls, and Starfield. We're investing in our technology, bringing teams closer together, supporting our live games, expanding into new forms of entertainment, and developing the next generation of Bethesda RPGs.

We couldn’t be more excited for what’s ahead and wanted to share as much as we could today. We can’t thank you enough for all you’ve given to us and these worlds. And we can’t wait to continue them together.

Need a whole new announcing team next year. The begging an infantilization of the team and viewers is annoying. I ended up watching the game on Telemundo.

[Sam Stein @samstein]

The announcers begging US viewers to not stop watching the World Cup now that we've lost is the depressing cherry on top

Understanding this as an adult is such an ego hit, but necessary to see the flaws in your own decisions.

[Joe Hudson @FU_joehudson]

Being a people-pleaser as an adult means you were a parent-pleaser as a kid.

At some point your nervous system decided that for you to feel safe and survive, your parents' needs had to be met.

[signüll @signulll]

most podcasts now have become unwatchable. i rarely ever have the desire to listen to any of them.

there is virtually zero alpha & very few if any original thoughts behind them. most often it’s just twitter takes kinda laundered to sound a bit more unique than otherwise. also they’re so scripted & highly produced that it just doesn’t even make any sense often.

does anyone really need 94 minutes of throat clearing to hear the same three points you read on x last week from some anon? youtube has a nice summary feature that works well if you’re curious about the content.

there is only one exception here & that is ben thompson who consistently produces original thoughts over & over again for years now. his cadence & thought structure both written & in conversation is quite beautiful through & through.

Do whatever you can to claw your way out of dopamine culture

[Leila Hormozi @LeilaHormozi]

5 reasons you should go for it:

• Nobody is thinking about your life as much as you are.
• Playing it safe is still a risk.
• You can always change direction. You can’t get back lost time.
• The worst-case scenario is usually survivable.
• The best-case scenario could change your life.

@raffichill we are in a dopamine-driven hoarding era, where simply saving something already feels like a complete act. making sense of it requires skill and thinking
