That includes posts generated by LLMs. It doesn’t matter if you “don’t have the time” or “would’ve written the same anyway”, or if “everyone’s doing it geez get with the times”.
For now it’ll also include “AI”-assisted projects that haven't had at least two months of (public, verifiable) dev time behind them.

I never cheat in multiplayer. But if a single-player game has a "hacking" minigame, I'm absolutely loading up Ghidra & GDB and figuring out how to actually hack around it. Pretty much always harder than just playing the minigame, but more fun.
oh god. When I played System Shock 2 for the first time, I couldn't figure out how the hacking puzzles worked. I look up guides and asked for advice. Got told to gitgud by someone who didn't play the game, then got told they were pure rng guided by the hacking stat. I saved scummed that shit. Don't present me with something that looks like a puzzle, but isn't.
