It feels like saying we can keep burning coal because we’ll develop carbon capture and storage.
The CEO of Google is saying exactly that when he says more LLM data centers are necessary for data regurgitation technology to maybe come up with a solution for climate change that isn’t “stop pumping carbon into the air with more data centers you fucking ignorant bazingas.”

- Comment on It’s too late to save Britain from overheating, says UN climate chief 2 months ago:
Time to make it even warmer than that with even more carbon dumping because the treat printers may someday rearrange all the data fed into them and come up with a magic solution to global warming that isn’t “stop dumping even more carbon into the air year after year, assholes.”
- Comment on Ubisoft investors push for company sale as shares hit decade-low 2 months ago:
“This is a case of a rare incel victory that led to Ubisoft having to take down its numbers,” they added.
Some analysts point to sheer number of games available today, their high prices, and the cost of living crisis for a slowdown in the gaming market. Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot himself admitted that gamers now expect extraordinary experiences, and that “delivering solid quality is no longer enough.”
The lesson learned is pander even more and make the hog slop an even more finely liquefied puree of fanservice shit! cap-think
- Comment on Blizzard Co-Founder Reveals True Reason For Departure 2 months ago:
I still remember when one of the founding developers of the Diablo series quit after too much corporate skullduggery and went somewhere else to make Torchlight instead.
The corpos he left behind, failsons and businessbros that they were, left a Twitter message regarding that founder’s departure:
“FUCK THAT LOSER.”
That’s what pieces of shit were left in Blizzard ever after.

When something you love gets slowly corrupted.
I wonder if those “corruption” cliches in Blizzard game storytelling throughout the Kotick regime were a sort of subtle cry for help, the way Origin’s developers cried for help during Ultima VII with EA-logo evil magic devices and the like and the massive dunking on Richard “Lord British” Garriot in the Serpent Isle expansion.

Kotick was an enjoyer of Little St. James Island, which may come as no surprise to some. epsteingelion

At some point start introducing power creep so players want to purchase access to new classes and feats.
4th edition already pulled that grift, making each additional book full of Glowing Eyed Generic Epic People a bit more power-creeped than the last.

They’ll probably try the “blind bag” monetization of minis again… or worse, do “blind bags” of subscription model virtual minis. cap-think

Digital art, at the least, didn’t uplift itself at the uncredited expense of the artists themselves, pushing them further into precarity.
- Comment on Hasbro CEO Says AI Will Become Core Part of Dungeons & Dragons 3 months ago:
you instead surrender the creativity to someone’s fickle whims
The corpos want entire game groups to surrender their own creativity to the diluted reconstituted slop churned out by the treat printers… and pay for that privilege.
I’m sure some will go for it, and never experience the joy of being creative themselves, or having a creative Dungeon Master for that matter. Just line up for more IP-regurgitating slop that burns down acres of forest amid all the prompt retries! brrrrrrrrrrrr
