@hzulla I appreciate that Steam, at least, requires full disclosure of AI use in games: https://steamcommunity.com/groups/steamworks/announcements/detail/3862463747997849619
Policies like that should be in place everywhere.

I am AndyHat.
I read, I play games and do crosswords, and I go to shows. I post about some of it.
@glecharles Those are from https://www.exophase.com which is the most compact for screenshotting. I also like https://metagamerscore.com for being able to track FFXIV in-game achievements, and https://infinitebacklog.net for being able to manually create and update achievements for games that don't have externally trackable achievements.
After our trip to Wisconsin, I had a 4-day weekend to try to catch up on gaming, but there are so many new games from the past few months that my backlog only grew longer...
@eniko They definitely changed it. Seems people are still working out all the details of the new system. https://www.pcgamer.com/games/rpg/praise-the-nine-oblivion-remastered-doesnt-make-you-grind-your-minor-skills-to-level-efficiently-and-increasing-endurance-boosts-your-hit-points-retroactively/
15 minutes from getting in a cab at our Midtown East corner to arrival at LGA. It's a Saturday, but that's just crazy fast. Congestion pricing is amazing!
And since that means we're super early for our flight, we get to enjoy a fantastic new outdoor terrace en route to our gate.

With the recent release of the remastered LUNAR RPGs, I am once again asking why there is no word of a Skies of Arcadia re-release.
Tonight is Anthony Roth Costanzo in "Countertenor"
@tmalesys It was great, as expected. The Danielpour piece itself is quite good, though rather depressing given the continuing state of America.

Nancy By Ernie Bushmiller

@Nonilex Ezetimibe is good stuff. My doctor put me on that last year and my cholesterol numbers are pretty similar now.
Today is Nick Jonas and Adrienne Warren's new show
@blogdiva He also has a real estate grudge, that happens to have been over a $400M deal: https://www.columbiaspectator.com/news/2025/03/31/columbia-trump-and-400-million-25-years-ago-and-now/
Tonight is some romantic comedy with Ryan J. Haddad
@tmalesys Glad to see you were able to grab a ticket!
Tonight is a nice program by Erin Morley at the Armory

Huh, guess that example from 1978 must be why Trump's showerhead EO cites the Oxford English Dictionary rather than M-W.
