It’s been a little bit since I’ve last written directly, here on the site. Most of this has to do with mental burn-out and the current political climate. The rest of it has to do with me being absolutely addicted to Minecraft and the little world I’ve built where I...

Just like I thought, the slow-creep of generative AI into gaming continues. Except this time it marches forward with Krafton’s enthusiastic destruction of the arts with it’s latest and highly anticipated life-sim, InZoi.

So, just a few days ago, it was announced that the Switch 2 will be nearly 500 dollars. This still pales in comparison to what it costs to have a whole entire PC, but hold up a second. Not only will the console cost you 500 dollars, but the digital...

Not because there’s nothing to write about, but more-so that everything I could write about is mostly negative. Negative, like me visiting the forum I’ve endorsed over and over again (Melonland), and speaking...

Earlier last night, I wrote about how I don’t know, or don’t think that discussion forums can be saved. And, I thought about it for a while. How do I know something can’t be saved, if I haven’t tried to fix the problem myself? So, I launched my own old-school...

I was reading this article from [a website] that will not be named, since they used and credited Midjourney for images in their article, and we don’t do that. As people who care about artists and the work they do, we don’t generate sludge, and then also credit the theft...

If you’ve been on the fediverse for a while now, it’s very likely you’ve been “nicoled,” in that an account on a random instance, calling herself “Nicole the Fediverse Chick” has sent you a private message, talking about who she is, and where you can follow her. At first glance,...
