Unbreaking Blade

if maxon could spend less time on AI bullshit no one wants and more time on fixing the thing that makes zbrush crash to desktop for no discernable reason that would be great

The confusion and conflation of ‘generative ai that is built on stolen artwork’ and ‘machine learning, character behaviour modelling and proc gen’ is intentional on the part of the grifters peddling the former. They benefit from murkiness of classification, because the latter predates their bollocks

Should probably finally beat Hollow Knight, huh

I really like Dominik Mayer's work, I feel like every piece he does is a banger.

Orblit by Heart Of Lines, david pech, Talpal Fling planets, make music!

Hey I made a thing! After a big long break from doing the GMTK Game Jam I decided to give it another go. Here's Orblit, a little game about flinging planets into orbit and making pretty sounds!

That's so funny, I feel like I have to force myself to play video games because I want to spend every second Making A Game, but you gotta ya know! Like how you should be well read if you wanna write well

AI is not a "neutral tool" that needs to be wielded by The Good Guys. there's no reforming a system to accumulate and centralize power. the totalizing aggregation of power means that anyone it touches gets crushed instantly. that is AI, inescapably.

She just climbs on top of me now. Doesn't even ask.

The protesters have turned on the Waymos

The thing that really gets me is all this jumping through hoops to try to say what it's doing is anything like a human when none of this behavior makes sense through that lens, but gets cleared up immediately if you just treat it like what it is (a next token predictor).

And like, they're out here citing Anthropic. They're called ANTHROPIC what did you think they were gonna tell you?

Made the mistake of reading the comments. Absolutely wild that there are people who can read all this and go "no dude, it definitely is capable of lying to you on purpose and also thinking"

I'm seated. The restaurant employees are scared and asking me to leave because "this isn't actually a restaurant it's a metaphor" but I'm simply too seated.

I might do full body versions at some point but also, I'm supposed to be making a video game over here

Ok I really need to stop, but here's a very quick Emmy, Laura and Trickster. I feel like Emmy would probably be butch if she had fewer brainworms.

THANK YOUU

Nichole is (unfortunately) very relatable, so I gave her the same hair I had early in my transition. I looked like a big popcorn for a while while it was growing out.

A sketch of two women. Katherine, on the left, is doing an anime girl pose and is wearing a jacket over a stereotypical "trans cat girl" outfit. Nichole, on the left, is wearing a crop top and shorts, and is looking incredibly shy about it.

So I binged @tpwrtrmnky.bsky.social's brilliant RCBG over the weekend and now I'm obsessed, so I had to draw Katherine and Nichole. I would do anything for them but also they are so fucking stupid

Probably could have posted this video first lmao

Here's a better view. It opens up instead of pulling back. Feels more correct for a wide projectile, even if it doesn't make much sense.

Fuck it, reverse crossbow

Finally figuring out cutscenes

#gamedev #indiegame #nullsoul #unity

Like honestly there's too much to unpack, but the bottom line is that it really feels like I'm being used to score rhetorical points here and it's just a bit gross

As a trans woman who used to want to work in ML while closeted... I don't love this.

Are there any publicly available papers that show that perspective you could point me to? (This isn't trying to be a gotcha, I just genuinely just want to read more about this)

OK I can just, go back to the hub city. I do not know why it didn't just put me there in first place, but I think that's enough destiny 2 for today

So I quit out again, which I don't like doing because I imagine I'll have to replay all that stuff. But as I start the game loads me into A DIFFERENT MISSION. So now I am in EUROPE. I did not want to be IN EUROPE but apparently I am in fucking Europe now and i'm just doing whatever this is.

another mission where suddenly I'm going inside the traveler. Whatever, I'm along for the ride. I'm going along I'm fighting some guys, wow there's like a replica of the city inside the traveler. Cool. Except hold on the waypoint is bugged. It's stuck in a doorway. Nothing is progressing
