Stealing?
I don't think it should be the devs getting angry, rather the execs

King Charles’ €500K lobster dinner blows hole in French presidency’s budget
A few hundred years ago they chopped heads off of kings and queens for spending too much on everything, and now they do it for them

South Korea has jailed a man for using AI to create sexual images of children in a first for country's courts
Hear me out on this one:
If we take it as given that pedophilia is a disorder and ultimatly a sickness, wouldn't it be better that these people get their fix from AI created media than from the real thing?
IMO there was no harm done to any kid in the creation of this and it would be better to give these people the fix they need or at least desperately desire in this way before they advance to more desperate and harmful measures.

Saudi man arrested after deadly car attack on German Christmas market
Apparently, he was an open supporter of the AfD, so I don't know about him being a jihadist

You don't NEED a weekend. The concept is barely 100 years old.
Wow, first post from threads I've ever seen and it's already total horse shit

TIL kobolds in Japan are dog-people because of a mistranslation in a copy of AD&D in the 80s
Where I live (a German speaking country) a kobold is more like a small humanoid being, more like a gnome

What small tiny app have you found that not many people know about
I'm recently enjoying walkscape, which is an RPG where you have to walk in real life to progress in game activities, such as crafting or fighting.
It's in closed beta, but you can sign up for the next wave of beta invites and I got in pretty fast
Also, I downloaded streetcomplete but haven't really gotten around to it. It's an app where you map out your surroundings for open source maps with Infos, like opening times at a bank or the width of the street or the type of road, etc. A cool concept, but I always forget about it

Game derulepment
Have you played the Conkers Bad Fur day multiplayer back on the n64? There is this mode called beach, where you play defenseless squirrels that have to make it over the border, which is guarded by nazi teddy bears. They have bazookas, snipers and turrets. All the squirrels have is their mobility.
So you run while there's stuff exploding and shots fired over your heads and around you while you run for your life and it was the most fun I had in a multiplayer game ever.
i've always dreamt of a similar game, or a mod for this game with more players and maps.
But imagine, a game where one team has only their agility and parkour skills to make it somewhere, while the other team tries to kill them.
So either you go the silly route with the squirrels and simple controls, or you could make a game with deep parkour gameplay and evasion moves and the like, but the rules and the goal would be the same.
EDIT: one detail that I forgot but is of great importance: the opposing team (nazi teddy bears) are pretty stationary and can just move up on their wall. They can't go down to the map where the squirrels run for their life

Sooo, where did the blatant Nazism suddenly come from?

Sorry to be pedantic, but it's "Sieg Heil".
Sieg means Victory, so it means "Hail victory".

I really hope that the next game will have a social sim aspect like Bully, where you have to go to class and build friendships
