I feel like solidly 40% of Bsky users would like to be able to mute RTs from an account without muting that account, but Bsky's management is too busy finding new ways to fuck up videos and banning people for saying genocide is bad

Fun (sad, but fun) how Lucas being the smartest dumb guy in the industry has landed him and Scorsese, the dumbest smart guy in the industry, both in roughly the same position as far as LLMs

There's no path to a better future that runs through the Democratic Party Honestly, there's no better future where the Democratic Party still exists

That Sinclair video of all the "local TV hosts" reading the same dystopian bullshit at the same time is about to become the only thing on television

“…fearing for public safety, an officer discharged his weapon,” says ICE in a statement, as if public safety was threatened by anyone other than ICE. The Dems are calling for body cams! Hilarious! I live in Rhode Island. Body cams don’t help, because they’re controlled by the men who shoot people.

Nice work, everyone! Keep it up!

Something nice: Driving home in the rain the other day we saw an old lady's car break down in a busy intersection, so we pulled into a lot and as I was jogging over, 3 other dudes were also converging on her car from 3 other directions to help. Got her to a safe spot quick to wait for her grandson!

It's basically impossible to talk about politics in any coherent way in the US because liberals, especially enthusiastic Democratic Party supporters, inexplicably refuse to accept or admit that they're not meaningfully on the political left despite hating and mocking any leftwing political positions

There's cops swarming the intersection by my house and they just put up tape across the street tied off to my fence All they'd say is it's a "crime scene" when they made me walk the long way around the block to get back to my house I'm stressing out worried about my neighbors

For the city folk .

"how were people writing 10 page papers before AI???" we were smarter than you. you could've been smart, too. but you sold your brain for nothing

Fuck Ubisoft tee bee haitch

Today launches the game I've been working on: Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced It's been an incredible experience working with such hardworking,talented & amazing people and we are very glad that players are loving it Unfortunately my whole team is being laid off so we can't fully celebrate it

The squeaky little freak who acts like speaking to reporters about elevating a fascist is simultaneously terrifying and beneath him is... Bad?

The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti

*meredith brooks voice* im a mitch im mcconnell i help trump comma donald ive a turtle for a head im probably really dead

Unfortunately, a stunned Paris is how they all got into this whole mess to begin with

Microsoft're doing to every studio it can all the shit EA did to Bioware, and doing it on an infinitely accellerated timeline Hoping to match the critical and commercial success of such beloved gems as, uhhh... Mass Effect: Andromeda and Dragon Age: Veilguard? Hang on, that can't be righ- oh. Nasty

bro they laid off the Doom 2016 developers. that's like if you laid off the studio that made arguably one of the best first-person shooters of all time, like Doom 2016

I spoke to Mitch McConnell for 20 minutes this morning and hated every second of it. Deeply unpleasant man. Just awful. All I could do not to smother him with a pillow, tbh. It would have been so easy. Frail little wretch. He disgusts me

I've been working on this for like 2 years. I know I only have like 10 followers but some of you are clouted up please help

he could be completely innocent of the allegations and he would still be a blackwater merc with a nazi tattoo

Houston is the 4th largest city in the nation. ICE is here, has been here, and killed a man here. His name was Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. Don't let that pass you by because it's not on your feed as much as Chicago or Minnesota or LA.

Been thinking a lot about video games lately because I can't find work and thinking about my own life is a massive bummer Anyway hey, remember how good the Dishonored games were? Microsoft's destroying Arkane, so there won't be more, but the Dishonored games that still exist are fun on a bun

It’s a shame that most of us know most of these.

It's extremely funny that the gap between Skyrim and ESVI is going to be at minimum the same as the gap between Arena and Skyrim (17 years)! Arena launched in 1994, and 17 years later there were SEVEN Elder Scrolls games, not counting mobile. There's only been been one (ESO; not great) since Skyrim

Your public Insta posts and reels are now available for reuse, including with AI. Here is how to turn that function off.

It seemed pretty obvious that McConnell was dead (or at least brain dead), but then I remembered we live in a bad world so now I'm not so sure

id being essentially destroyed is unbelieveably shitty news. And it keeps happening! Money perverts come in and kill every part of culture they're allowed to touch. Music, movies, television, games, everything. Soulless freaks who hate art & hate humanity and think they're better for not having any

THE ACKROOMS

to me one of the big challenges wrt Platner is the American left needs to be significantly more disciplined and careful about letting military veterans near the movement at all, to say nothing of running them for office

Minorities have never had the right to vote in the United States. It’s not a right when the de facto only two choices are our eventual demise at different speeds.

I've learned that this is a bug introduced when they tried to vibe code in a "challenge mode," something nobody on Earth wanted, and which also caused a bug that makes playing the underwater levels in TR2 stick Lara in her wetsuit forever in the hideous "updated" graphics Microsoft should buy Aspyr

They're both babies. They have so much in common (babies generally don't have that much going on other than being babies)

Uh oh! Looks like everyone who said Plater was a huge piece of shit was right too early! Whoops!

I think it's time we admit that about 99.999% of all arcade beat em ups and platformers (remember the 80s when there were sometimes platformers at the arcade?) are just plain old dog shit. Obviously 90% of everything is bad, but there are virtually no good arcade beat em ups or platformers at all

Obviously the *most* important reason MS should stop supporting genocide is to stop supporting genocide. But on a smaller, selfish note: I wish it wasn't against my principles to spend 7 bucks on Heretic and Hexen :( Also I want to take another run at Avowed someday, so I'd like to buy that, too :(

Microsoft engineered this so that it looked the least bad optically while at the same time still committing a slaughter, all so that Satya Nadella can still dick around with more useless AI horseshit. Fuck him and fuck Microsoft.

Sure Microsoft may have fired thousands of people and gutted its games division but at least it had more money to pour into Copilot, the 4th most popular AI, a product nobody wants or likes except rich executives, that is constantly losing horrendous amounts of money

i really don't like this framing where trans people being rightly upset about a 9-0 scotus decision against trans rights is resulting in yet more will stancilesque lecturing about how scotus rules are complicated and progress takes time sweeties and also trans people are always overreacting anyways

MS' accessibility team were among the best to ever do it. If this is true, it sucks REALLY bad, and it's just another instance of MS proving that they're not just stupid, but actually evil

tfw you’ve just finished pissing on jefferson davis’ grave

One of the things that really brought a smile to my elderly mother-in-law was hearing what her visitor counts were to her quilting website. Now she's in hospice, so I'm going to try to drive some visitation numbers up quiltsbymarlene.com/the-quilters/ This was one of her proudest achivements.

Since apparently this isn't making it beyond UK news yet, Rockstar petitioned a British court to section an 18 year old autistic kid under the mental health act for hacking their server and leaking a short GTA 6 clip a couple of years ago. No trial, no term of sentence, just locked up in hospital.

Tell him William Henry Harrison did it so he should do it too

He should get out there and do his speech anyway Show some backbone
