You know what promotes innovation? No, "intellectual" "property" laws, and the promise of passive income. Not the pressure of the shareholders to deliver growth forever. Not even the investment of capital.
It's quality free time. It's when people have the time to experiment and try things. It's when they have access to tools and resources not being fully used. It's when they are not stressed and can freely explore on their own. And when they can do things that don't bring immediate profit.
Told to remove accessibility feature.
I am looking for arguments! Boost welcomed. For #accessibility I added sound settings to a project, in which you can adjust sound and music separately. Now I am told it should be removed and players don't need it, they can control the volume at their device and turn all sounds off when they don't like it. I think its doing the players a disservice, but am lacking proper arguments besides being pissed.

Yet another reason LLM/AI is a terrible thing:

"GenAI is set to create nearly 1,000 times more e-waste (in data centres) than exists currently by 2030, unless the tech industry employs mitigating strategies."
"The study, which looks at the rate AI servers are being introduced to datacenters, claims that a realistic scenario indicates potential for rapid growth of e-waste from 2.6 kilotons each year in 2023 to between 400 kilotons and 2.5 million tons each year in 2030, when no waste reduction measures are considered."
"...equivalent to discarding 13.3 billion units of the iPhone 15 Pro"
Do you know kobolds, especially three kobolds in a Trenchcoat? They were the inspiration for my adventure game Yip Quest.
This video is one of the reasons why everyone should love kobolds!
