Perhaps it's worth noting that even if you opt out of the Twitch AI training thingy, your public broadcasts can still easily be saved by anyone, resold, and used to train anything.

Friendly reminder if you're still using Google that it's (intentionally) so bad now, that other search engines are genuinely competitive on quality. Worth looking around, even if you end up deciding to stay.

I hope that this is really true, in which case, more backlash please.

If I see one more doompost or ragebait video about Unreal Engine 6 "removing Blueprints", just one single post, I swear to the Omnissiah I'm going to press Ctrl+W with slightly more force than usual and get on with my day.

I just saw the thumbnail of a sewing AI video. Sewing. Are we seriously that far gone?

Around two-thirds of my commits in the past two weeks have been workarounds for Unreal Engine bugs. Perhaps the engine is not that great.

I'm starting to get fed up with the ridiculous character limit on this server. It's 2026, we don't have to pretend that posts are in a VARCHAR.

Does anyone know an instance similar to mine that doesn't have this stupid limit, or convince Mr. Mastodon that we don't need to copy the stupid part of Twitter('s corpse), especially given that ActivityPub itself works just fine with longer messages? I can read them, I'm just blocked from posting them.

I refuse to 1/N anymore, I'll just not post.

Me: Hmm, this is a very obvious and jarring graphical artifact, I wonder how $AAA_game dealt with it.

$AAA_game: shipped with the artifact, front and center

This is the fifth time I'm running into something like this.

> In Unreal Engine 5.7 the default Microsoft Visual C++ compiler has now been updated to MSVC 14.44

Finally! I've had so many people complain about #UE5Coro hard requiring a compiler that's newer than Unreal's recommended one. I went as low as I could (14.41), but Epic recommending a particular version doesn't make it not broken... 🤷‍♀️
