it's a shared worry with a lot of us, i'm sure. i also hate it very passionately and working in webdev, it's really difficult to not explode with frustration all the time when everyone around me at my job is deeply entrenched in LLMs and "agents" while all i can do is watch as it chews up our repos
Gosh, I can only imagine how frustrating it must actually be. Like not only working with devs who happily just leave all their critical thinking to a chatbot but also companies pushing it so aggressively on their developers in the field.
Now I'll get back to work on my jumpy animal game.
Sorry for all these "AI" posts, it's just something I'm incredibly passionate about and I'm truly worried about the sheer amount of damage the slop machines will continue to inflict on society.
...and it sucks that all I can do is vent about it.
This does lead me to something that fucks me up: I feel like at this point you can pretty much expect that *most* of the websites you regularly use, utilize LLM-generated code.
"AI" in webdev has become incredibly prevalent. It's literally everywhere and I hate it. See also: bsky.app/profile/davi...
This is gonna be a bit iffy without the original context, but eh...
I've since been told that I didn't properly "verify" that the script itself might be generated by an LLM. See:
bsky.app/profile/ciel...
...not that this changes the point I originally made at all, but there you go: due diligence.
...because what I said is still correct?
The generator itself does *not* utilize genAI, doesn't matter if the devs were too lazy/unskilled to script it themselves or not. Β―\_(γ)_/Β―
... though it's also kinda funny that no one would put it past Microsoft at this point π«
I'm so looking forward to being able to trash Windows forever. Unfortunately Linux is not *quite* there yet for my use case.
...*yet*
Pissed off Deke is *not* fun to be around π«
Yup, there we go: www.windowscentral.com/microsoft/wi...
Guess even the more-or-less reputable sites are now at a point where they just take unverified info from unsourced articles and push out articles.
What a brave new world this is.
...also I guess that's what they mean by "heightened emotional state" as a side-effect of HRT, lmao. I literally had to work out and go for a walk to cool down again.
That... actually never happened before lol
Ah! The rare "better clock out early before I punch a hole into a wall"-kind of workday π
she's truly the best fbi analyst
I have found a few articles on this - no one dropping their sources besides "rumors say", so take this with a grain of salt.
...that being said, it *does* sound very "Microsoft". Kind of a bold strategy on their part to finally *force* the year of Linux to happen though lmao
Trying to get a Switch 2 devkit, even as a publisher, has been and still continues to be an exercise in frustration.
I just wonder why, the dev rollout for Switch 1 was so much smoother.
So yeah, same here - won't be able to do any cool Switch2-exclusive stuff for the time being.
Aww, I remember this review! Thank you so much, it really meant (and still means) a lot to me! π
Oh shoot I quoted them but had no idea it was the same @deke.studio that made Lunistice. If y'all hadn't even heard of it much less played it, definitely check it out. I had the pleasure of reviewing it back when reviewing games was my 9-5. Good times.
....I yearn for those days again aha.
this is true, but i do think its worth noting that pixelframe is likely pushing these generators out in order to draw traffic to their website, which is, in itself, pro ai. just because the font generator doesnt use ai doesnt mean using it doesnt support people that do
Oh, 100% agreed! I personally still wouldn't support it, because fuck "pro-AI" companies lmao
Look, I know the lines are getting very blurry, and intentionally so.
And I know seeing everything getting shittified by glorified auto-complete is miserable and it's getting easier to just be paranoid about *any* content that gets posted nowadays.
But, still - PLEASE verify first! π«
See, this is why I hate that "AI" is blurring the lines on *everything* so much, because it's how this kind of misinformation happens.
Pixelframe might be pro-"AI" (ew) but the logo generator is safe. It's literally a local, incredibly basic script that just puts funny font on a background.
They're actually getting remade. I find them way too harsh :D
A bit of a longer video where I show off some of the updated stuff I was posting about before!
Game is looking pretty sleek in very very widescreen as well! :D
Some stuff still needs updating and fixing (like the level select borders and the results screen), but I'm very happy with the progress :3
i already ruined it by not doing the crystal jump at the start smh π

Oh yeah, I almost forgot! While I was at it, I also made sure this time that the level select doesn't fall apart on ultra-widescreen displays :]
Oh god, these few months were already devastating enough, I can't imagine how bad it must been for two whole years π
I sincerely hope you feel much better now!
It's so nice to have the energy to do... anything again!
I haven't talked about it much on here, but my hormone levels were completely busted for the last few months (who would've thought that your body needs them to function)
I'm finally on a proper dosage, so I'm getting better at last!
They're probably the most polarizing set of levels in the game lol
Also something we worked on stream: in an effort to finally make everyone see the light and accept that the Food levels are great, I decided to make them levels look even more tasty for 1.1
(also because the contrast is better and platforms don't vanish into the muddy pink background from beforeπ¦)
So... since I had to remake the level select menu from scratch anyway, I thought that I might, you know, maybe just update it a teeny-tiny bit for 1.1? π₯Ίππ
