Side note: Did the “Katie Porter treats her staff like shit” stories have any impact on her numbers or was she just not as popular as I expected to begin with?

I don’t talk politics here much but… seeing the news about Swalwell makes me wonder if the reason so many other democrats have stayed in the race is because they knew it was coming.

Please normalize this as a valid take. Sure, it would be nice if a lot of movies targeted towards kids/families were better, but let’s acknowledge that they can be fun to watch simply for looking awesome as long as the rest isn’t offensively bad.

It is absolutely crazy that it takes about the same amount of time from pressing Play in Steam to being able to load and play a saved game in Doom: The Dark Ages and Stardew Valley.

Unionization would help, but if we really want to reform the AAA part of the game industry in the USA, mandating board seats for employee representatives (see Germany's "Supervisory Board"), limiting stock grants as executive compensation, and making stock buybacks illegal would go a lot further.

Two images of Princess Zelda from Breath of the Wild. The left looks normal, with the text "3DLSS off." On the right, she's blurry and distorted with red and blue, like when you try to watch a 3D movie without wearing the special glasses. Text on this half reads, "3DLSS On."

I see you’re replying in this thread a lot and we agree on policy so please take this constructively: I don’t think the evidence supports the notion that Harris or Clinton lost due to sexism. They both campaigned poorly and fumbled an easy win. Swing voters are anti-establishment, thus: AOC wins.

Clinton lost because she took the swing states for granted and didn’t campaign where she actually needed to. Her campaign’s senior leadership was also arrogant and plagued by infighting. Ironically, she made the same mistake in the ‘08 primary: Taking a win for granted and ignoring the delegate math

I'm a veteran 2D artist and art director for games with 20 years of experience. Worked at Mojang. I know games inside and out, and I need studio work.

I'm a hard worker and right now I can barely pay rent *and* am going out of my mind with boredom and the waiting.

Thank you

Listen to me throw shade at EA & then completely forget about Tales of Kenzera: Zau. Sorry @abubakarsalim.bsky.social! 🙈

AND I was wrong about how @adhocstudio.com released Dispatch. 😇 (I'd love to talk to them about it because I am genuinely stunned.)
