January A bundle by Chris Bissette, £150.00 for 60 games

Hello. It's my final week as a full time game designer, and as if to underline why I can't do this anymore, I currently can't afford to cover my bills at the end of the month.

All of my work on itch is on sale. Tell your friends, buy something, thank you very much.

Die Grafik kündigt die Livetalk-Veranstaltung mit dem Titel „Laberfeuer" an. Das Thema der Veranstaltung lautet: "USA / Europa" mit Dirk van den Boom. Zwischen USA und Europa sind gelbe Sterne zu sehen, die wie eine Kollision wirken. Darunter ist ein animierter, nächtlicher See zu sehen.  Der Hintergrund zeigt die stimmungsvolle Illustration einer nächtlichen Szene in einem Garten, links ein Foto des Gastes in einem Holzrahmen und rechts daneben ein animiertes Lagerfeuer, in dem diverse Talkingpoints ausgeschrieben zu sehen sind.

A goblin with frizzy hair wearing pink boxer with love shape pattern, blue long sleeve shirt & yellow frame shade holding a cardboard that says "BE KIND AND REPOST". The text "ARTIST SHARE" is on top of his head.

Das, was derzeit meinen Kollegen @dunjahayali.de und Elmar Theveßen widerfährt, dürfte z.T. auch eine orchestrierte Kampagne sein. In den digitalen Kloaken genügt es ja, jemanden zu markieren und dann wird das zum Selbstläufer, in rechtsfreien Räumen, denen sich bislang keine Kraft entgegenstellt. 🧵

Es ist etwas anderes, ein einzelnes Unternehmen voranzubringen & Gewinne erwirtschaften zu lassen, als kompetent und gesamtgesellschaftlich relevant eine ganze Branche zu regulieren. Verstehen leider weder manche Politiker noch viele Wähler. Wirtschaftskompetenz =/= in der Wirtschaft tätig.

A post from girldante reading “i think you can recognize that the usage of AI by students of all grades and all around the world to cheat through their assignments is not a personal moral failing but just yet another symptom of the mechanistic if not, at this point, basically dehumanized processes of our education systems which are nowadays almost solely focused on demanding production from students and churning out degrees required for jobs while ignoring any tangible verification of their actual knowledge, intellectual development and critical thinking skills, much less their mental health, while also pointing out that using AI to write your essay isn’t a power move to cheat a flawed system, it is behaving exactly as the system was designed, it is cheating yourself by giving up your ability to speak, think for and challenge yourself and bowing your head to powers that will only benefit from not being questioned, and the only reason text genAI is so widespread right now is because it was born on the perfect breeding ground that is anti intellectualism.” Then a response from anarchistmemecollective reading “oh turns out someone had already finally said it and better.”

Saw this on Instagram and thought this applies to art too. Not only are genAI “artists” stealing, but they’re also cheating themselves out of the benefits of creating.

The joy of the process, the complex decisions, the pride.

Giving up creativity for productivity is exactly what capitalism wants.
