I understand why this happened, but it’s heartbreaking all the same. E3 was like Christmas for gamers and having all the conferences take place in one week was such a treat. So many good memories spanning so many years.
Thanks for everything, E3 🫡.

The Director of the UN's New York office just resigned after thirty years at the organisation over the UN's handling of the ongoing genocide of Palestinians.

The entirety of his resignation letter is a necessary read but this first page blew me away.

There are many ways to get across the point of distortion in the Mercator map. Here's a planisphere indicating a distance across Africa and another distance across Russia and things don't add up

i've never doubted that palestine will live.

the US dropped more than 7.5 million tons of bombs on vietnam, laos and cambodia from 1965-75. they destroyed our land, used agent orange, slaughtered villages, separated families, the list goes on.

but we're. still. here.

A historic crime is unfolding in Gaza & the EU is in it up to its neck. MEPs sit & watch the slaughter & cannot even condemn it, calling it a "humanitarian crisis," as if it was caused by the weather.

Infamy. EU will never live down the shame of today's resolution. #LongLiveGaza

End the occupation of Palestine.

When I took history classes and learned about atrocities from our past, I always wondered how the rest of the world stayed silent.

Now I understand.

Nintendo will forever destroy everyone w cute games about lil guys falling over and going “oop” while the rest of the aaa games industry briefly looks up from putting more polygons in guns and goes “well, that doesn’t count”

⚡️Russian media publish footage from searches in the mansion and office of Yevgeny Prigozhin, which were carried out by the security forces.

Now, everyone who has ever rolled your eyes at the idea that ADHD is a disability, ask yourself this:

Have you ever once thought about what it would feel like -- really *feel* like, subjectively, in your body, in your qualia -- to be motivated by curiosity over completion?

[Anne Mette-van Dijk @Vendaaik]

Well that's a bummer. I was so excited about this too

[Benjamin (leaving for 🦋@benjami.no) @stealcase]

They used voice actors, but don't credit them at all.

Their voices were fed through an AI filter to change pitch and timbre.

Yet "AI" gets credit?

"AI" can't replace humans fully, but the marketing and tech WILL reduce the perceived value of human work and expression.

Regarding Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, my uncredited work is in the book. "Solution" is, by the author's own admission, a take on my game Train. She uses the same theme, gameplay patterns, releases the game at the same location (MIT) ... more
