recent remarks from @frame.work's CEO, nirav patel, are incredibly disappointing, and reflect a recurring theme that i'm seeing in tech: embracing, in both vocal and financial support, right-wing bigots and fascists with the excuse of "they make good tech" community.frame.work/t/framework-...

Left to right: - Chap-hop's not dead to me - Enthusiastic defender of the right to hang around outside all-girls schools with a camera - Used ChatGPT to write legal defence of the camera guy, has read the entire back blurbs of Art of War and The Prince - Has an internship in Daddy's eugenics factory

So it wasn't these three specific accounts, so it was Aaron instead.

Dead canaries are starting to stack up

Um. Just um. Yeah. This is a problem. Is bluesky safe?

If you want to own System Shock 2 but aren’t interested in the Nightdive remake, act now because it’s about to be delisted as a standalone product. www.rpgsite.net/news/18648-s...

I do find it hilarious how they immediately backtracked after this and deleted the comment

I enjoy how people with lists called "leftist pigs who deserve helicopter rides" are ignored so the devs can focus on what's *really* important, defending digital cancer

we're shutting the whole thing down

I do not want that stupid app. It’s spyware-bloated, full of crap. I want appliances that work, without tattling to some techbro jerk. I’m sick of “AI” garbage-spew, Sick of silo’d platforms too. To analog I shall return, and wait for all this mess to burn.

You can now be banned for "Being disruptive to other users" yeah thats definitely going to be enforced consistently

Good news is hard to come by and it has no impact in the grand scheme of things but it appears Helen Lewis has deactivated.

Let me get this straight: Link, a Black user, got banned for calling out the Bluesky CEO for following a racist. That’s not a good look, especially given Bluesky’s historical treatment of Black users here on bluesky.

Bluesky has the same number of letters as Brewdog and I wonder if that means anything.

The tl;dr on this is that you should absolutely block @dollspace.gay and you should ABSOLUTELY not use its hosted appview. The BEST case is that it's sharing a brain and body with Laurelai and all your conversations with it (and any data sent through the appview) are easily accessible BY Laurelai.

The CEO of Bluesky is craven and evil. The only people that build these platforms are infected with the self-reproducing moral rot of capitalism. They have no sense of duty or stewardship. They see their monetary reward as a cleansing justification for their actions.

Bluesky deleted my post complaining about the CEO lol. I did not delete it myself! Full on Lowtaxing from Jay here.

if you tell me that protesting the government’s complicity in a genocide is unbritish then i’m afraid what i’m hearing is that britishness is bad

#RandomGameSaturday is late again this week because I had to get out of a corner of Scotland via only public transport with no trains, which meant rural buses. I even ended up having to install the Stagecoach app.

If you want to know why this site is like this apparently a bunch of the staff followed the screenshotted account. Good god

If there is one thing I wish GOG would preserve, though, it's the Amiga and Atari ST games that are superior to their DOS counterparts. Most everything you get on GOG is the DOS or Windows version, and up until the mid-1990s, that's a real crapshoot.

The man from Del Monte did not mind the gap between the train and the platform edge.

yes, Jay loves WAFFLES: Weak Ass Fascists Fomenting Loser Energy Shit

Do you want gayer games with gayer graphics made by gay people paid more to work less? Goodbye Volcano High is half off during the Steam Autumn Sale 🏳️‍⚧️ store.steampowered.com/app/1310330/...

Let's assume that AIs can in fact suffer. To make sure they don't, let's euthanize them all.

Anime fans and weaboos of the internet with paid #Crunchyroll accounts - time to end your subscription and boycott Crunchyroll for its support of companies from the genocidal apartheid settler-colonial state of Israel. #Anime #BDS #FreePalestine #FuckIsrael

nah, after the most recent waffle incident i have to agree that bluesky the company really does not care about the users that made it what it is right now and telling people "you can leave" is the worst PR strategy i have ever seen the users that made this what it is can't just leave as of now

JAY GRUBER: Oh don't mind me, just sip-sip-sipping on my duck milkshake, got my stunner shades on, can't see the haters!

CEOs as a class will be lecturing people on work ethic and integrity in their work and they can’t even read an entire fucking book

if you're a trans poster and you don't want to get banned apparently all you have to do is coordinate a harassment campaign on Twitter and then openly advocate for more harassment on bsky. I'm assuming if that worked for some posters to become Ban-Immune, surely itd be equal treatment for us, right?

AT Proto has become a sort of ideological vaporware; a way for Jay Graber et al to run a social media platform while claiming they don't run a social media platform. This is just another iteration of the Silicon Valley monoproduct: power without accountability. azhdarchid.com/delusions-of...

Toad sat on the edge of his bed. “Blah,” said Toad. “I feel down in the dumps.” “Why?” asked Frog. “I am thinking about tomorrow,” said Toad.

If only war crimes, redundancy packages and AI didn't need so much funding.

The Labour Party has now been suspended from the Labour Party.

anyway, reminder that Brando Sando is a mormon in good standing aka he tithes 10% of his income to a church that just announced they filed a brief saying that protecting trans rights infringes on their religious freedom ✌️

Hi! I borrowed $300m from the worst people in the world to buy your favourite thing! Now your favourite thing owes me $300m and sadly it looks like it can’t pay me back so I’ve taken it out back and shot it. Anyways, just wanted to ask… what’s your *second* favourite thing?

ive locked mr beast in a room adn if he can stay there for 100 days he can stay there for 1000 days i dotn care

I'm looking forward to EA's next Sims game, where you can build a house as big as you want provided you have enough slaves to do it.

Finally the Dreamcast has its revenge and EA will be slowly destroyed, it would have been funnier if the news had been announced 20 days ago though.

You're telling me the neurotypicals can just walk around outside without headphones? Weird

Big popular accounts add alt text to you screenshots challenge (impossible).

#RandomGameSaturday for this week is on the news because it’s getting an entirely unneeded “remaster”.
