"...only about 4% of the tariff burden is shouldered by foreign firms, with a “near-complete” pass-through of 96% to US buyers..."

Manor Lords and Terra Invicta publishers Hooded Horse are imposing a strict ban on generative AI assets in their games, with company co-founder Tim Bender describing it as an “ethics issue” and “a very frustrating thing to have to worry about”.

“I fucking hate gen AI art and it has made my life more difficult in many ways… suddenly it infests shit in a way it shouldn’t,” Bender told Kotaku in a recent interview. “It is now written into our contracts if we’re publishing the game, ‘no fucking AI assets.'” I assume that's not a verbatim quote, but I'd love to be proven wrong.

The publishers also take a dim view of using generative AI for “placeholder” work, or indeed any ‘non-final’ aspect of game development. “We’ve gotten to the point where we also talk to developers and we recommend they don’t use any gen AI anywhere in the process because some of them might otherwise think, ‘Okay, well, maybe what I’ll do is for this place, I’ll put it as a placeholder,’ right?” Bender went on.

Nobody ever expected a Fallout: Mad Max crossover event.

That sets up a nice sequel with some interesting ideas about the living undead and the horrific work conditions of the poor and social stratification of the Victorian era.

Captain Taco Bell. One 4th meal too many changed him. Into the hero we never knew we didn't want.

Shouldn't it be the other way around?

This read in my head with his voice. And I don't mind that at all.

That comic made me laugh too damn hard.

I think I pulled something.

They sounded too rough and cartoon-like. The lyrics talk about snorting Coca-Cola by the bucketful or some other nonsense. Almost like they were making fun of the old country songs, like Johnny Cash's 'Sunday Morning Coming Down'. The one where he sings about being hungover.
