wikipedia turns 25 today! the last unenshittified major website! backbone of online info! triumph of humanity! powered by urge of unpaid randos to correct each other! somehow mostly reliable! "good thing wikipedia works in practice, because it sure doesn't work in theory" - old wiki adage

I know AI sucks but it won't play games for you
"When in use, this overlay character would be able to demonstrate actions, such as how to solve a puzzle or by providing "example controller input button sequences", which would in turn allow a player to then progress with the game."
Sony has patented an AI gaming ghost that will play PlayStation games for you when you get stuck

It's just a walkthrough and also just a patent
Just because AI sucks doesn't mean we have to fall for clickbait
yes this was indeed my new year
I hope you all had a great start of the year. I made this drawing yesterday, trying to ignore the fact that in Uruguay we ended the year with temperatures between 40 and 44 degrees celsius.
I wish you all the best for 2026 ♥

One of my favorita things about Don Quijote Is it shows that humanity has thought dunking your head in cottage cheese is fucking hilarious for centuries
so I'm reading Don Quixote and somehow no one ever told me it was hilarious

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

People don’t love all these giant data centers being built, so my wife and I are offering an alternative: a good ol’ fashioned mom-and-pop data store. Small, cozy, a place where we know you by name and offer you a donut and coffee while you check the data of your financial crimes.

#WomensArtI hadn't had the time to post it so far but look at the gorgeous art I commissioned from
@dreiidrie.bsky.social 😍 earlier this year
perfect take on Martha and Wade from FFXVI
to say a few more things - i'm especially glad about how perfect their dynamic comes through in the art because it's such a small ship (there's literally one fic on AO3 and i wrote it 🫠) so i look at this and it just makes me smile

#drawing"people didn't like photoshop/the industrial revolution/cars/etc at first either"
well, a lot of those things changed society in ways that weren't all good and capitalism didn't take one gram of responsibility over the negative impact
it's not a good argument for "ai will be fine, trust me"

why would you use AI for PLACEHOLDER text? the only reason to do so is if it's not actually "placeholder"
(or if you're bullshitting the CEO)
The games industry brings in 300 billion dollars a year. The guy who made DOOM gets his projects canceled, the guy who made Katamari Damacy is broke, everyone in your feed is begging for a job and there are 50 new games coming out on Steam every day all going towards buying Gabe Newell's next yacht

Another oldie of a drawing. This view from the library in Newport, Gwent, drawn during my college days. Touched up with extra line work for my application to join the Society of Architectural Illustrators.

This is horrifying but not surprising - como siempre, al jefe no lo agarraron porque estos operativos son contra las clases populares y racializadas, no contra el narcotráfico
La lucha contra el narco se gana con trabajo, educación, salud y vivienda...
Y con una policía/gobierno que no los proteja
