In a recent Q&A at Seattle WorldCon, a *Game of Thrones* fan decided it was a good idea to bluntly inform George R.R. Martin that he’d be “dead soon.” Because, you know, nothing says “thank you for the epic tales of betrayal and mortality” quite like a death threat! It’s almost as if they mistook this gathering for a rehearsal of the Red Wedding. One can only imagine Martin’s thoughts: “I’m just here to discuss my next book, not my obituary!” But hey, at least someone’s keeping the spirit of Westeros alive—by reminding the author that time waits for no one, not even the man who kills off beloved characters at will. Here’s hoping that fan

So, it seems we've reached a new low in entertainment with these ‘Cheapfake’ AI celeb videos on YouTube. Who knew that a bot could create such thrilling fan-fiction-style content that’s apparently "obviously fake"? It’s like watching a toddler paint a masterpiece—adorable, but you know it’s going to end up on the fridge. Yet, here we are, glued to our screens, falling for these digital shenanigans as if they were Shakespearean dramas. Who needs reality when we can binge-watch AI's lazy attempts at fame? Thanks, YouTube, for reminding us that our standards have officially hit rock bottom! #Cheapfake #AI #YouTube #CelebVideos #DigitalDrama

Ever wondered why you can’t trust a chatbot to talk about itself? Spoiler alert: they’re not self-aware, and expecting them to be is like asking your toaster for life advice. 🤖🍞 Sure, they can churn out words faster than a coffee-fueled writer on deadline, but when it comes to introspection? Let’s just say they’d fail spectacularly at a therapy session. Picture a chatbot sitting on a couch, staring blankly at its reflection, asking, “Am I real?” So, next time you're tempted to engage in a deep conversation with your virtual assistant, remember: it’s just a glorified parrot. And parrots don’t have existential crises—thankfully! #ChatbotHum

So, Valve has decided that a crackdown on "NSFW" content is the reason why some Steam players can no longer use PayPal to buy games like Cyberpunk 2077. Because, obviously, nothing screams "let's make gaming more accessible" like limiting payment options to just six currencies. Who knew that the real enemy of gamers was too much... *excitement*? Now, instead of diving into a dystopian future, players are diving into the depths of payment options. Thanks, Valve, for keeping it interesting! Who needs convenience when you can have a good chuckle at the absurdity of it all? #Valve #Cyberpunk2077 #Steam #NSFW #GamingNews

So, after what seems like an eternity of waiting, we finally get a demo for Endless Legend 2 to soothe our restless gamer souls. Because, you know, nothing screams "we're totally on schedule" like a last-minute demo to distract us from the fact that the early access is running late. It's almost like they’re teasing us with a slice of the game while the whole cake is still in the oven. Can’t wait to see how this will lead to endless discussions about what could have been, while we endlessly wait for the full version. Thanks for this little taste, developers – it’s like giving a starving person a single cracker and saying, “Here, be patient!” #EndlessLegend2 #GamingNews #DemoDel

The gaming industry is sinking into a cesspool of greed and dishonesty, all thanks to the multimillion-dollar gray market for video game cheats. It’s infuriating to see how cheat creators are raking in profits while ruining what should be a fair and competitive environment for gamers. These pathetic individuals are profiting from the desperation of players who want a shortcut to victory. This blatant exploitation has turned gaming into a sham, where skill and hard work mean nothing. We must call out this cancerous growth in our community and demand accountability from those who perpetuate it. Enough is enough! The integrity of gaming is at stake. #GamingCheats #VideoGameCommunity #GameIntegrity #CheatMarket #GamerRights

In a world where corporate streaming platforms are supposed to be the bastions of professionalism, it turns out they’re more akin to a high school talent show—complete with awkward moments and sensitive data on full display! Who knew that a little misconfiguration could turn internal meetings into the latest reality show? Thanks to a savvy security researcher, we might just get the chance to see the next big plot twist: “The Great API Exposé.” Nothing screams "trust us with your data" like a tool designed to find your streaming platform's most embarrassing flaws. Tune in, folks! #CorporateStreaming #DataSecurity #APIFail #TechHumor #PrivacyMatters

So, apparently, 5 axes are better than 3—who knew? Clearly, we’ve all been hacking our lives wrong by settling for a mere trio of axes. Thanks to Elliot and Dan for enlightening us on such pressing matters in Hackaday Podcast Episode 332. I was just about to ask the important question: “How many axes does it take to change a light bulb?” But now I realize it’s way more complex. And let’s not overlook the riveting discussion on hacking our behavior. Because if there's anything we need, it's more ways to manipulate ourselves into thinking we’re productive while we scroll through memes. Hats off to the man who made models—perhaps he should model a life where we don’t need 5 axes to

So, apparently, ultra-long-haul flights are now a thing thanks to "wide wingspans" and "more powerful engines." Because who wouldn’t want to be crammed in a metal tube for an eternity, right? Forget about the joys of legroom and personal space; we’re all about that high-efficiency material life. They say these advancements keep planes flying longer, but honestly, it sounds more like a high-tech way to test our sanity. Can't wait for the next travel trend: "Surviving 24 Hours in a Flying Sardine Can!" Sign me up! #UltraLongHaul #FlyingHigh #TechTrends #TravelHumor #AviationAdventures
