you haven't elaborated on your initial critique
haha okay
tell me more
people have wanted access to our database and I wasn't able to provide it before
wow what constructive feedback! what "shitty AI features"?
Kineticist now has API access, and, for funsies, perhaps pinball's first MCP server and CLI tool. www.kineticist.com/build

hi bird
I covered this story extensively for @kineticist.com—six pieces from Nov 13-Jan 23. Disappointed as an indie journalist who covers the pinball community to see @nbcnews.com frame it as an exclusive with no credit.

Hi! I covered this story extensively for @kineticist.com. Why is @nbcnews.com framing this as an exclusive? I've done at least six pieces on it from Nov 13th-Jan 23rd. A little disappointing as an independent journalist who specializes in covering pinball.

I don’t know the context of this but wolf parade is awesome! the album that song is from got so many plays from me in college 🤘

They have since credited me but yeah, always a bit frustrating when it happens. Usually I’m good with these things if asked and provided credit
sorted, was apparently in some shared marketing assets folder and they didn’t look closely before using
Thanks! Didn’t think of that
I don't always know what to do with this stuff other than be mildly frustrated by it but here's a major pinball distributor taking my work (I took the photo, it's even watermarked) and using it for their own promotional materials w/o permission, explicit credit, or compensation.

depends on the person! I've always found most video tutorials to be hard to follow, I'd rather read it, which is one of the reasons we led with written pinball tutorials on the site.
