It took me several hours, but I have reupholstered my first thing. I'm full-on adulting here.

I've gotten press releases from two different companies for horror-themed takes on farming games in like the last week and I think that's great.
I haven't been a video game journalist in a number of years (and I still miss it), but whatever the current generation is doing, they should all be up in arms calling out just how harmful these LLM garbage factories are to this industry on both an existential and very literal level. Yet, I don't think I've seen anything of the sort. Admittedly, I don't read nearly as much gaming coverage these days.

Gosh, Sony. I guess I won't get that PS5 Pro I wasn't planning to buy anyway, but holy shit. $900 without a drive? Who in their right mind would buy one of those damn things now?
The takeaway from Sony's crazy price hike is that AI is crushing the future of console gaming and indeed video gaming as a whole thanks to its vicious greed, gluttony, and wastefulness. So, once again, fuck AI.

I'm morbidly curious who wants to pay $40-$60 for a physical copy of the BloodRayne games.

Most days are a fine day to remind people Douglas Adams was a genius. I still miss that angry, delightful bugger.
From the mouth of my 12-yr-old regarding moths:
"Their only hunger is for lust."
This in regards to the disturbing (to me) fact that (some?) moths, once metamorphed, don't have mouths anymore.
Just got told by my daughter that her adulting class teacher not only endorses using AI for class stuff but is having the students take the motherfucking meyer briggs test, which I just absolutely fucking loathe. Might as well tattoo on your forehead that you're a goddamn imbecile. Apparently, he's also a lawyer too, which is just icing on the shit cake.
Is HDR just broken in Windows gaming? I have a nice HDR-capable monitor and finally tried it, and it just seems busted. Desktop can't understand it, even though Windows has a system option for it and getting it to work in games is sketchy af. Maybe I'm missing something obvious.
