i've been building a little multiplayer halloween pumpkin carving experience you can play right in your browser, no download.
tcpoole.com/graveyard
you carve a pumpkin and set it out, put up your own gravestone with an epitaph, claim a haunted house on the lane, broom flying
everyone who stops by is in the same yard with you, and everything people make stays there.
when i'm live streaming, chat controls the weather.
free, come leave your mark
man, i rule, ya know? xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1vJpPNbAP…
Come tell me why you think about AI xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1vJpPNbAP…
The pattern, Part III
The amount of people just straight up wishing death on Tim Sweeney is wild. Here are some of their profile pictures.
Notice a pattern?
Where's the diversity? Why do they all look like... well....
Wishing death on someone over AI is an alarmingly low iq take. But it makes sense when you see their taste in art, and their lack of potential and talent.
Vibe your way to 50K.
The 2026 Epic AI MegaJam begins Nov 12: epic.gm/epic-ai-megajam-2026
You're not understanding.
Its not just the 3d/2d assets we can rip.
Its now the very math behind the game that we can rip out and put in our games.
Want your new vibe coded Diablo-esque game to be balanced like Diablo? Just ask for it. That data has, for years, been studied and talked about on forums.
Everything is cracked.
Everything is up for grabs.
Everything is busted.
"B..b...b..but that's not right! That's not fair!".
Oh? We're in church now? We're talking about morals now? You think these video game companies are morally sound?
Let's hault the whole of human progress so some programmers can keep their jobs forever. Because they say so.
I never realised how Holy programming was. They deserve to always and forever, in perpetuity, have their jobs because, guys, I hate to break it to you, but they spent SO MUCH TIME getting gud at coding.
Great idea.
webGPU + three.js + Opus 5.5 + Meshy = endless iterations of games based on your own world/setting.
Imagine up some core characters
Get a map of your world
Get 3d/2d models of these characters
Get items/resources that belong to your world
Get 2d/3d images of your items/resources
Get a backstory/lore
THEN
feed them to Fable 5.5 or w/e the latest model is at the time, and you can easily cook up different genres of games built on your world.
I am the worst.
In 2022, automatic1111 diffusion was released. At that time, I was taking commissions making various art for streamers: Panels, starting screens, brbs, alerts, emotes etc. Working the traditional way that I had for years: Ps Ae Pr.
A few months passed and text became legible on AI Art. And none of my competition saw it. So I began to pump.
And pump I did.
I sold SO MUCH to these streamers. They thought I was toiling away, spending hours upon hours on their emotes and panels.
lul
At the time, nobody was sniffing for AI Art. These retards had no clue. They never asked if it was made with AI because they had not been spoon fed an agenda by the media to hate AI. The sheep hadn't had time to gather en masse to form hate mobs to seek out and harass people for using AI.
Now that the hate mob is out in full-force, I look back on that time and smile.
To tell you the truth, in hindsight, I LOVED taking work from these people, for they turned out to be the same people, now, that go around and actively buy steam games, leave negative reviews, and then refund the game, ALL for the sake of being Anti AI.
As if they are saving the world by attempting to ruin indie game devs.
delusional.
-------------
I'm not a take-the-high-road person.
As the meme goes: when they go low, I go lower.
And the fact that most of the anti AI crowd are furry pedo groomers, makes my old endeavors even more batman-esque.
Anyways, I win you lose I'm the best and you suck.
That Anti AI hate mob Pattern (part II):
These are a few more of those who go out of their way to spew hate and harrass those creating with AI.
Do you see a pattern?
The difference between those using AI and these dudes:
Anti AI bros: "Everyone must obey our rules or we'll come after you"
People that use AI: "I'm using AI and don't care if others abstain or use AI."
>>>>> Which side display's more judgmental hate?
How are you guys so good at logic and also so retarded at logic.
"isn't this actually, MY brain's work? Should I claim it as mine?"
Imagine you tell a programmer: "Write me a new shader in the style of Inigo Quilez. Use the lighting, math, animation techniques, and variable-naming habits he uses." They study your public work and produce something that matches it closely.
Is that shader yours? No. The person who directed it produced it.
Studying and applying someone's publicly demonstrated techniques doesn't transfer authorship of the new output to them.
Same thing if the "programmer" is an AI given a prompt to impersonate you. Dependence and resemblance don't make the result your work.
A provocation: if this GLSL shader was one shoted with a skills.md that requests to impersonate me, and indeed does pull my work on shapes, lighting, animation and delivers my style, maths, techniques and conventions (to the variable name)... isn't this actually, MY brain's work?
Should I claim it as mine?
Claude only did the mechanical/easy part of immitating my usual moves to put this together.
Musicians, true musicians, didn't stop when the DJs came around and took our gigs. But this didn't and doesn't stop people who love music and playing instruments.
If you were in it to make money, and this was the chief and primary reason you pursued it, then maybe your reasons for being in the software development industry were very shallow to begin with.
Being a lifelong musician, coming from a family of working musicians, I just don't have much sympathy for the software engi's now going through something similar.
No one gave a fuck about us, so I don't give a fuck about you.
And now we've updated the weather app and page.
Real time weather in 3d, Tornado Warning issued for midland/odessa TX.

Stay safe, and vibe code your own weather app.
recent updates with Opus 5.5
3d tornado model created with Meshy
Cheesy retro 2000s weather channel music made with Suno.
In that hour their tears fell without end, a rain so heavy and so deep that it cooled the very data-centers they had risen against.
We vibe coded the Epic Games Launcher to be faster than the other guy.
Don't believe us? Test it out for yourself in Preview:

🎃Vibe Coders of X, hear my call. Harken to me! Come carve a pumpkin. Browser based, no download. A fun community Halloween event for us all.
tcpoole.com/graveyard
It's multiplayer. 30 characters to pick from, 7 different brooms for flying, wear your pumpkin as your head. Lay a grave, pick a headstone. Pick an empty housing plot in our new neighborhood, then a style of house.
Everyone's pumpkins, graves, and houses persist, so we can continue to carve and see other's jack-o-lanterns over the month of October.
Lay a rose at others graves, leave a treat at their pumpkin.
🎃This is Halloween🎃
🎃This is Halloween🎃
Creating a vtuber with Opus 5.5 live, come hang. Come play my Diablo style game with us! xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1DxLdZpZe…
I'll continue to ship, while my net userbase continues to grow, and I won't be reading...
a single...
line....
of code.
It's bad enough that we get hate from the anti-ai, furry drawing 22 y/o's. But now we get it from jealous trad devs who want you to use the now archaic methods that they still use.
The hate is one way.
They go out of their way to offer their unsolicited, condescending 'advice' and warnings of "you'll regret that messy code base" and "you're building a lot of tech debt that's going to come back to bite you in the ass".
But me?
I don't care what you do. I don't care if you hate ai, or you love ai, or don't gaf about ai. I don't care if you write in HolyC on paper with a number 2 pencil.
Do your thang.
You won't get judgement from me.
But these guys? Well, they have something to tell you about your code...
