Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous this is worth sharing and educating people about

Lol right I forgot I was on a mega Lawrence kick before I switched over to Deezer. Time to get back on it!

The Nobel Prize committee should announce the World Cup winner tomorrow

Yesterday we celebrated the very best of the Dutch games industry at the Dutch Game Awards. Congratulations to all the winners, I can't tell you how great it is to see so the efforts of so many industry friends and colleagues recognized on stage.

Left Spotify a while ago, so here's half a year's worth of Deezer instead

Israel still committing genocide in Gaza, Amnesty International says

A study by the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research has estimated that in the first two years of the war in Gaza, between 99,997 en 125,915 Palestinians have been killed, with 27% of the dead aged under 15 www.bnr.nl/nieuws/inter...

This is the funniest piece imaginable in the dull world of the otherwise sickly sycophantic tech review. For real. Read it, even if you don’t give a rat’s ass about printers.

It's my 39th birthday today! I think my lower back tried to highlight the aging process by completely crapping out on me last Thursday. Good reminder to get my stretches in! 😅🙌

This might actually work?

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Everyone excited to buy a Steam Machine.

i spoke to LOADS of people about this very recently, and the only people using it regularly were the dipshits in charge

just started having recency bias and i love it. easily the best bias

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

Sat down for a lovely chat with @clert.bsky.social over @eurogamer.bsky.social To talk about my games and how I'd like to keep making and improving them sustainably. To step away from the launch, meme and hype driven madness that has taken root in games. www.eurogamer.net/as-viral-hit...

This is perfect 👨‍🍳👌

Been catching up with industry legend Richard Bartle this week at an industry event, our last contact being an email conversation some 15 years ago, when he utterly tore apart an academic article I had asked him to review. We had a good laugh about that one 😂

Told a taxi driver in Spain that I'm from the Netherlands, and his eyes just light up. "Netherlands?? Goedemiddag!! ... Godverdomme klootzak!" 😂

"I have no responsibility for your disappoint" is my new life philosophy

A few facts I wish more Dutch voters knew:

I finally finished my new visual identity and website! I'm really happy with how everything turned out, and how much of an upgrade this is in terms of both identity and professionalism. Should be good for at least another 4 years now! www.martijnvanzwieten.com

APWOT is beyond amazing. This has to be some of the best writing on games you can find today, and the design on this is simply fantastic. Clearly a labor of love by all involved. Well done @cazwis.bsky.social 👏

Like most empires, the tech empire is built using spectacular amounts of work done by unpaid workers, or slaves. Making money by not paying your workers / suppliers is an old grift, and not as clever as it looks. Certainly not worth admiring anyone who has succeeded using this one weird old trick.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

Israel has destroyed the "ceasefire" in hours. It is murdering Palestinians, and maintaining its illegal siege. Not a ceasefire. New post 👇 www.owenjones.news/p/israel-des...

Somehow we had a successful game launch in 2025: A thread 🧵 We launched Little Rocket Lab this week, and it's been mega for us. Which is amazing, because well, the industry is bad right now! So I wanna go through the things we did, in the hope that something here can be helpful to someone here ➡️➡️

Slept on it, and I still can't believe they gave us fully catered and unfettered access to Edinburgh Castle last night.
