A lot of people are taking this opportunity to go "god, everyone's so stupid, we're all doomed," but nobody's pointing out that this seems to be a rebranding exercise primarily motivated by declining sales, which I'm going to guess is because Lay's suck and are also like $8 a bag now

Alu often shows me pictures of digimon ladies trying to coax a feral reaction from me. Alas, my only love is Wargreymon

NFTs are amazing because you apparently “own” them but the AWS outtage yesterday took out everyones apes lol

obama ramped up the use of drone strikes (10x more than bush!) and deported a record number of immigrants. he helped maintain and expand the systems trump is now using to do his crimes

This is a thoughtful piece and I appreciate Abigail being even-handed with my argument. But it’s also the same failed strategy we’ve run for years: ‘Protect the dolls’ got allies to declare support for trans people, and now we’re upset they’re using the wrong words.

The PS2 truly is the best console ever because it is constantly becoming more powerful. Each time we say something "looks like a PS2 game" we're talking about a game of a higher fidelity than the last. What the PS2 is capable of in 2025 is so far beyond what it was capable of in 2003. That's amazing

The entire "free speech on campus" moral panic was manufactured to blackmail us into making space in intellectual life for bigots and charlatans who couldn't get there on their own merits. Its a DEI scheme for fascism. Congratulations to everyone who took it at face value.

Those with sharp eyes might detect a subtle difference in NYT play last month of an event in one city, w 100,000+ attendees, versus play this morning of some 2500+ events w many millions of attendees, in all 50 states. See if you can spot it! /s Then you can find today's story on p A23

"But when the team looked at the employees’ actual work output, they found that the developers had completed tasks 20% slower when using AI than when working without it. Researchers were stunned. “No one expected that outcome. We didn’t even really consider a slowdown as a possibility.” 🎁link

I have a note: Please don’t make AI slop versions of actual signs ppl made by hand.

Chuck Dixon created Bane. I don't bring this up to argue that creating that character somehow negates his current behavior, but to talk about a problem very prevalent in comics. And that is bigoted people making bank off the very marginalized groups they later demonize and discredit.

My mistake, you are correct! I generated the file, but I did not give you a download link — let me go get it for you [pretends to walk down stairs behind couch]

So this is just legitimate ragebait. The context was specifically about expanding the Nintendo IPs and the Nintendo Museum where they can see and use old hardware. Here's the question and answer

Y’all have GOT to stop uncritically sharing Stealth’s posts without checking your sources! I can’t find a source for when and where Miyamoto supposedly said this or who translated it ANYWHERE and yet my timeline is flooded with takes on it.

People are nitpicking this statement, but I do think the bigger issue is that almost every single Mario game is a timeless classic, and the Mario movie is the textbook definition of disposable entertainment.

this cop wanted a shuppet, who is attracted to negative emotion, so he could use it to find people before they commit crimes. first thing it did was go to his wife who reluctantly revealed she’s resentful of how much he works and is never home. it’s a fucking yakuza substory.

Important report—key to highlight is that counter-protestors against the Kirk memorial were peaceful, but were then attacked by event participants, and then the right-wing groups that put the event together started to smear the counterprotestors as violent
