When I say that non-ecommerce web monopolies are fragile, I mean that it just takes one sicko to realize that people just want TheThing, to make TheThing, and then nobody has any reason to use your enshittified platform anymore. Seeing MySpace era css brings a tear to my fuckin' eye.

From a good friend in Minneapolis: "Target is allowing ICE to stage in their parking lots, use their restrooms, and abduct people from inside their stores - so if you weren’t boycotting already, now is the time." They were staging in Chicago as well.

Again, we don't hate the head of Epic enough.

"i am sorry for what i have done in the past and don't yet know how to fix it, but don't want to make it worse" is legitimately about the level best you can hope for someone like this to say, and it should be strongly encouraged anywhere we see it

Blow up

I love the Muse because it's a digital nightmare hellscape but for none of the reasons that the internet in fiction is usually a digital nightmare hellscape You think emergent AI is scary? Try "none of the people who wrote this codebase are even alive anymore." #InGoldenFlame

Knowing two dragon friends who love the Inheritance Cycle (Eragon) is quite fun. Makes me wonder: mutuals, anyone interested or familiar with the Inheritance Cycle?

You know I've embraced the linux way when I think "ooh, there's a program I want" and my first instinct is to type in a terminal

I LOVE spreading misinformation to my 10 thousand followers and then restricting quotes and replies

can we stop trusting a fucking unsourced jpeg with replies disabled that has zero proof of anything

You won’t be prepared for Sonic’s voice

… okay maybe another one

Hi folks, I'm seeing a lot of "Eyes on Minneapolis" & "We support Minnesota" sentiment. Here's a tangible way you can help: Trump just suspended federal funding for SNAP benefits to Minnesota. Second Harvest Heartland is an MN-based hunger-relief org. Please donate what you can. www.2harvest.org

I swear that media companies underwent psychosis the moment computers and technology lets you make perfect digital copies of audio and video, and it's been an arms race of But No You Can't Make Copies Of That

"y cant metroid crawl?" is an all-timer but honestly the whole saga is gold too

I maintain that corporate streaming for nerds peaked with VRV and it went drastically downhill from there

Watch out for the ONE question where they try to trick you by putting "I want AI" as the bottom option where EVERY other question has "I don't want AI" at the bottom!

Discord wants to know how you feel about AI. Go tell them: discord.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

If the theatrical release of a *superhero* movie basically matches the length of the Extended Edition of LOTR Fellowship of the Ring then something in the editing process has gone *horribly* wrong.

Of all platforms I shared my Art vs Artist video, Twitter been the only place where some people were actually disappointed I was black! I screenshoted that one because it's so hilarious to me! If you are a popular animator and make cute things, you can't be black? So Twitter 😂😭

The rage that has to exist in the average Minnesotan to watch someone stuck on an icy hill and STAND BY AND TAUNT THEM

I was inspired by a similar post I saw earlier and had to make my own rendition because this is the vibe goin forward #b3d

"No fucking AI assets" - a reminder that many good publishers that will disqualify any prototype with genAI placeholders, and that using it is at your own peril. Hooded Horse happens to be one of the best publishers out there at the moment, so this is a big one. kotaku.com/hooded-horse...

If you're saying "Fuck JK Rowling" and "stop keeping Harry Potter culturally relevant through fandom or funding" then you should drop FNAF too. Scott Cawthon is a Christian Conservative who uses his wealth to donate to republicans, including Trump and Mitch McConnell. www.axios.com/2021/06/15/f...

Just imagine… that happening to me…

This. If you abandon your rooms, guess what? The hotel STILL gets the money, it'd just be the furry convention paying the cost. I'm all for protesting companies for supporting ICE, but please make sure you're not hurting or killing our community's conventions by doing it, is all.

IBM's "A computer can never be held accountable, therefore a computer must never make a management decision" was from 1979. That was 47 years ago. That was before AOL, the Macarena, and Google. Half a century ago it was considered obvious that CEO's would deflect blame from themselves onto "AI"
