John Carmack's been openly a huge dirtbag on twitter for years and years and it drives me absolutely mad how seemingly no one ever notices. I hate John Carmack. All my homies hate John Carmack.

Just fuck carmack. Its a skill issue if you cant code with a cat on you. Fucking deadnaming Rebecca too.

I don't blame people for assuming there's no good, healthy version of online community. Anyone younger than me has probably never seen it. But it used to exist, I swear.

When the Great Pyramid of Giza was built, there were still wooly mammoths alive in Siberia

Judge Ellis also found that a top CBP leader's testimony was not credible, in part because he admitted that was relying on unreliable "use of force" reports generated by DHS officers — and in a footnote, says video showed an officer asking ChatGPT to help him fill out a use of force report!

I've heard a theory that Indians who discovered smelting never moved beyond copper tools because their copper was too high-quality, so hear me out: what if they failed to develop writing earlier because they had no need to bitch about how shitty the copper is?

nostalgia is a scam invented by big new to sell more old

This is an amazing fact

Do you think of Yoshi as a singular character, Mario's old friend, or do you think of Yoshi as just a species of animal, of which Mario has encountered thousands of? Don't try to logic it in your head, what does your heart say?

The amount of people I know who have been laid off from games industry jobs and are deciding to leave games entirely as a result is not only extremely saddening (of course), but also genuinely scary. We have lost legitimately thousands of years of knowledge and experience in the last four years.

No one drinks piss like Elon, Weird self-diss like Elon, No one rankles at being called “cis” like Elon

Late, but I wanted to jump in on this trend. While I love Fieren, I am deeply inspired by how brave this person was! They went for the hard thing, were curious, made us all rejoice and draw together! It makes me so happy to see folks gain that artistic curiosity! So go forth! Rooting for you! 💖

Every once in a while, I check my son's Steam reviews.

Zohran Mamdani doesn’t make me, an American Jew, feel unsafe. Having the Coast Guard, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, decide that a swastika isn’t really a symbol of hate? That makes me, an American Jew, feel pretty damn unsafe.

Replace the B-52 with the Leviathan guy and then it is more clear what the stakes are. Yes, you are voting for who has a monopoly on violence. What did you think you were doing?

Earlier today, I was notified that someone was at my door. This is who it was:

whatever the Xai people did to make grok speak more positively about its owner seems to be backfiring

The debate over whether he means things like this literally is tangential to the reality that this guy has spent over a decade wondering aloud into the world’s largest megaphone whether anyone among his violent, unstable followers will rid him of these turbulent priests.

Moxon’s Shaving Cream: “Never exonerate malice simply because it is also stupid.”

everything that is wrong with Elon Musk can be summed up in the fact that there’s nobody in his life who can sit him down and tell him how embarrassing this is

People talk about the Epstein files like a magic button that will either destroy trump if pushed or not harm him at all. I think the truth is that they've already hurt him and will continue to do so, even though they won't probably end his presidency. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/the-epstei...

An entire argument dismantled in two words.

‘Denim’ gets its name from the French words ‘de Nĭmes’ meaning "of Nĭmes," because it was manufactured in the city of Nĭmes. ‘Jeans’ comes from the city of Genoa (earlier known as Genes) because the pants were worn by the Genoese navy. 'JNCO' means “Judge None Choose One."

Proposal for gender-neutral public restrooms

Amazing. Dude is just winking at Cassidy and telling him what a schmuck he is while he kills children.

It’s never a bad time for this meme, but International Men’s Day might be the best time

The original purpose of DC was concern that a state might not protect Congress from angry mobs and how did that work out.

This is an argument only made by people who've never been to DC, have only been to DC on tourist trips, or are cynically appealing to people who don't know DC is substantially larger than just the monumental core, which DC statehood plans always carve out to remain a federal district.

Since the star collection and post-star collection cutscenes in Super Mario Galaxy 2 have an average length of 30 seconds and a full playthrough collects 240 stars, the player spends at least 2 hours per playthrough simply watching Mario collect stars.

My new favorite kind of meme is "here are detailed instructions on how to turn off AI". 🔨

Harvard: “Because Larry Summers asked his close friend, a convicted sex offender and the leader of a vast pedophilia ring, for advice on making sexual advances on a young mentee, we are cutting off all his responsibilities except close contact with undergraduate women.”

You can tell he is a real indie developer because he isn’t looking to ride it out for clout the way a studio of 60+ full time employees would have ✌️

I laughed at loud. These people are so pathetic; our enemies are numbskulls. They will kill us all and still not know hs physics. COWEN: The stupidest question possible: Why don’t we just make more GPUs? ALTMAN: Because we need to make more electrons. conversationswithtyler.com/episodes/sam...
