How have you determined that this is AI? The proliferation of actual AI slop is bad enough without people out here claiming everything is slop.

My GPU has a big, useless white light that I wish I could turn off

Have you tried OpenRGB? It may not support your specific GPU but it's worth checking.

Humanity's history with gold would suggest that it is extremely capable of melting brains.

I guess this November is no longer a big red X on every publisher's release calendar

Giant Bomb deserves more than a thread hanging off the Polygon story post. I don't think it's ever looked nearly this dire.

I don't remember exactly how I stumbled across GB, but I think it came up randomly during TheSpeedGamers Final Fantasy marathon in 2009 (which was the inspiration for the first GDQ marathon in 2010). They weren't necessarily the first to do the very personality-focused, video heavy, gaming coverage, but they definitely went at it the hardest and with the fewest fucks given about doing anything the "right" way. I've spent over 16 years now following the site and the people that have come through it, the Giant Bomb Extended Universe. I couldn't possibly quantify the impact they've had on me over the years. It may not technically be the end but I don't see a path forward from here.

Just gonna go be sad for a bit and watch the best content GB ever put out. That would be, obviously, Thursday Night Throwdown: Fortune Street (and part 2). <>

 

The trailblazing video game website Giant Bomb has faced significant staff departures, as owner Fandom claims the brand will undergo “strategic reset and realignment”.

Here we are, 17 years after a bunch of clueless suits fucked with GameSpot and led to the creation of Giant Bomb. Now it's a whole new set of clueless suits fucking with Giant Bomb. It's the circle of capitalism.

I was in deep for GB until the Nextlander split and slowly trailed off since then. I still have mad respect for that group and follow most of them in one way or another. This is a new level of dire for them.

The Giant Bomb Preservation Project still appears to be active so... at least there's that I guess.

Awesome. Yet another reason to donate to the IA!

Edit: Grabbed episode 888 from IA. I'm only 10 minutes in and already these guys are going for it. I love this, fuck Fandom.

"I felt a big hit on the lateral side of the car, and saw Fernando and said: 'Hello!', but luckily there was no damage for anyone."

Git experience is highly transferrable. Unless you have some specific use case not supported by Git, why wouldn't you use the one where the knowledge is most likely to carry over between projects/jobs?

I find it interesting how many people will click the link, find the relevant info, and paste it into a comment with a dash of snark, completely missing that the info is already in the body of the post. It's some weird offshoot of not reading the article.

 

Colourful story-driven adventure To a T is a new game from the studio of Katamari Damacy creator Keita Takahashi. You play as an eternally T-posing teenager who must learn how to get by performing the simple tasks of life despite the challenge of having their arms permanently outstretched. We first learned about the game back in 2023, when it was announced with a very sing-alongable trailer. Now, it has a release date, along with another cracking musical number.

The game will come out May 28th, we're told.

 

Tekken series director Katsuhiro Harada has criticised a fan, and “people like them”, for complaining about a returning character’s updated appearance.

 

In a statement published to Facebook on Thursday, the Nürburgring cited safety concerns as the reason for the ban. "The different driving dynamics of two- and four-wheelers pose a risk of misunderstandings—especially for motorcyclists," the statement reads. "In order to make the driving experience safer for everyone, cars and motorcycles will be strictly separated in the future."

 

As updated on the PSN Store (and shared to ResetEra), the game will release on 28th August this year.
