Cignificant I really hate DRM. I love Nü Metal, Grunge, & Industrial though. Not a huge fan of censorship or GenAI either.

@TreasureCoLtd Such an honor to be followed by Treasure, been a fan since I was a kid playing Gunstar Super Heroes on the gba. That game needs a modern rerelease.

@arhumSearcher @SirPootington @NightdiveStudio @gnarvilledotxm Outlaws & Dark Forces too. I assume it’s more on the ip holders side, but still sucks.

[Cignificant @realCignificant]

@tivstippi I honestly think it’s the delivery & word choice that makes it so much more cringe than the normal corny dialogue imo, Sgt. Johnson’s was usually corny but motivational. I hope it was just a bad representation, I’m not a fan of this Sgt. Boofass.

Just noticed yesterday was the 3 year anniversary of when Unreal Tournament 3's "X" update was silently cancelled.

Thanks Tim Sweeney for delisting the whole series off every platform and never even saying why! Very cool!

The first straight-to-VHS movie in 20 years has been released, despite the last VCR being made a decade ago

The film ‘This Is How the World Ends’ wants to push back against the digitization of media and heavily criticizes AI

@Rxfe_s @MischiefsYT To be fair they didn’t lock the classic skins behind a paywall, not to mention you could unlock many others without further purchase. The problem I have with it is that it’s just nostalgia bait.

🧵1️⃣/2️⃣ The Internet Archive helped solve a 100-year-old conservation mystery.

Researchers discovered why some bowhead whale populations are recovering today from centuries of commercial whaling by using centuries-old Arctic whaling logbooks digitized by the New Bedford Whaling Museum and made accessible through the Internet Archive.

These logbooks remind us that preserved records don’t just document history: they unlock it for use today & tomorrow. 🔓

Keith David gets emotional and says he’s “living his dream” while accepting his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

“I started out as a singer, then I wanted to be a preacher, and I wanted to be a lawyer and a bank president. Then I discovered I could be an actor and be all those things.”

'Backrooms' director Kane Parsons isn't a fan of generative AI

"If I could snap my fingers and make generative AI disappear forever, I probably would"

"Creatively, I get no enjoyment from using those tools. It defeats the purpose entirely for me"

He thinks there may be uses in tedious VFX labor 'but right now it's difficult to discuss objectively because there's so much at stake and so many genuinely harmful consequences already happening"

A US bill to stop paid games being terminated and being made unplayable in the future has passed its initial vote.

Should the law pass, it will prevent future games shutting down without an alternative or a refund, as with The Crew and Babylon's Fall.

A monumental win for consumers and for developers who care about their work being preserved.

Stop Killing Games.

Heavy Metal (1981)

Oh hell yeah. Any fans?

[Bobby Taormina🎙️🎤 @BTVO17]

I ended up completing Dredd Vs. Death earlier today, it's a short game, but I'd love for Rebellion to bring Judge Dredd back somehow, a Robocop Rogue City styled FPS title would be fantastic.

Please stop. I don’t want an AI summary of my Google search. I don’t want an AI summary of the text message from my friend at work. I don’t want an AI summary of the email I’m about to read. Please just stop.
