Personally, I believe that institutions that purport to support or otherwise celebrate an industry have a responsibility to pursue material action that backs that support up. Here, we have an example of the most abject failure to uphold that responsibility, and it's frankly embarrassing. (1/5)

Another day in “forced AI is stupid and makes our lives worse”: I kept trying to write “10s =” like multiple tens, and Apple AI keeps converting it to minutes.

For years, but especially for the past year, Democrats have been in thrall to the idea that they need to chase an imagined median voter, and adopt that voter’s positions. Mamdani’s victory shows another way: hold principles, and persuade people to share them.

it's obviously important that zohran won. but it's equally important that cuomo and the despicable, racist, contemptuous, arrogant, loathesome forces arrayed behind him were brutally defeated. they banked on new yorkers hating and fearing each other. and they lost. what a town.

About 11 months now of going to the nice gym! wish I could say my brain chemistry has changed and it’s easier to motivate myself to go, but nope!!!Instead, the thing that gets me in the door is the hard deadline of signing up for a gym class right after work…

Libraries matter. Access matters. After years of legal battles, the Internet Archive is still here—and still fighting for a world where everyone can read, learn, and remember. @arstechnica.com tells the story: arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

On Saints Row we had a debug npc named Skinballs (lol) that was literally just four spheres wrapped in different shades of skin texture so we could test lighting for different skin tones during development. But teams need to plan for that kind of testing with intentionality, and not enough do.

New article on ★ daiz.moe ★ Crunchyroll is destroying its subtitles for no good reason daiz.moe/crunchyroll-... A ton of research and effort went into this one. This is the article to read to get to the bottom of Crunchyroll's subtitle changes! Replies here will show up as comments (eventually)

what i want to know is: why did they rank themselves a 9 out of a possible 10 on the crunch-o-meter that THEY DESIGNED THEMSELVES. unless... they didn't? and are beholden to a superior Crunch Entity? and if a 9 is CRUNCHTASTIC!!! with 3 exclamation points, what the FUCK could a 10 possibly be???
