The worry was that Microsoft would get people to rely on subscription gaming completely and then enshittify the service beyond recognition, but they seem to be skipping that first part.

Newsletter: Goldman Sachs has called BS on Generative AI, and I believe that it's time that everybody follows suit - generative AI is unreliable, unsustainable, requires an entire rebuild of America's power grid, and is most decidedly not the future.

I don’t need a bs ‘health coach’ I need a qualified doctor who is available to see me????? We pay like thousands of dollars a month to a black hole for doctors to be too ‘busy’ to see patients!!!! It would be faster to go back to Scotland for the free shit and immediate care imo

I hate this industry sometimes.... From linked in, Manor Lords - A GAME MADE BY ONE PERSON - is not a failure because it hasn't grown into the biggest game ever and the developer didn't make enough content. They sold 2 million copies of a $30 game. IT WAS MADE BY ONE PERSON

I recommend taking five to ten minutes to put your US rep, US senators, and state and local elected officials into your phone contacts so you can instantly call them whenever you get mad, which will be every day from now until we die.

Being annoying as praxis is only the first step. The second step is to gather likeminded neighbors and friends and ask each other how you can maximize your joint annoyingness. Congrats: this is called organizing, you’re building a base of your common man united on a common cause.

I am not decided on whether I actually want the president to step aside, but I have decided that Biden should label the Heritage Foundation a terrorist organization and put their employees on the no-fly list just to see what happens.

Do not lose hope. Scream, yell, demand better, and say these thieves' names. You are being given less so that others can have more, you are having things taken from you by corporations because they must always please the nebulous form of the shareholder.

For the uninitiated, Cyberdog is an underground rave clothing/accessories store that has existed in its own remarkably unchanged aesthetic of extremely “cyber 1999” for 30 years. It has expanded since my last visit, they now have a kids section AND a cyber dildo basement! Don’t ever change, Cyberdog

This means romance authors. This means poets. This means screenwriters and playwrights and actors of anything remotely risqué. And eventually, anything secular. They have no point of satisfaction until they’ve erased all of non-Christian expression.
