So PCF started a bsky thread of projects AGDQ donations go to. I say "Started" because they posted their first project and the response was so bad I presume the social media person got hauled out and is in the process of being replaced.
The leading headline project is an LLM chatbot. That's what they went with first. Not outreach or advocacy or support or clincal work, slop.
This one wasn't GDQ's fault at least. I refuse to believe GDQ had an input on that post, or that it was listened to, if it actually made it to public channels. Anyone with a drop of involvement in the actual community would have been screaming to not post that.
But man. What a bad series of choices going all the way back to "Using LLM trash"
Hey, Seattle retro tech folks! If you see someone offloading a bunch of CPS2/Naomi/Neo Geo PCBs, please reach out to Gamecenter down in Kent - they just had their truck hijacked and a bunch of boards, original marquees, and other parts stolen from them https://www.kiro7.com/news/local/game-over-25k-tech-stolen-kent-arcade/FIVDROI4QZDBTE6FSZWAG3EWXU/
