Massachusetts is now the first state to certify a rideshare driver union after granting Lyft and Uber drivers' collective bargaining rights. This is the largest new private-sector union in over 85 years. 70,000 workers are now represented by the App Drivers Union.

Last year, miHoYo copied my puzzle game Ouros in Zenless Zone Zero. Because they are a recognized, billion-dollar studio and my game isn't well known, some people are now assuming that their version is the original, and mine is the clone. I hope this video clears that up.

Listen, I agree with the general statement of this post but this is fundamentally not how game engines work or should be compared. It's like comparing a car and a 16th century sword for the purposes of knitting of sweater. www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

“I'm gonna take some time to like, be a person again…Every single one of us co-defendants have had different and similar traumas when it comes to this case. And we have to pick up the pieces of our lives that the government broke.”

It is bizarre that people continue to believe that Israel does not rely upon American goodwill for their military activity when Israeli media itself talks of how DC will "greenlight" a larger operation in Lebanon. Israeli media is more honest than American media in this respect.

Did you know that some crowd funding platforms don't even recognize you exist? @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social shares how being a Palestinian indie developer meant facing invisible barriers on major crowdfunding sites. Luckily he found home with LaunchGood for his game project Dreams on a Pillow.

A perfect example of how US foreign policy is bipartisan. One is a Democrat, the other is Republican, but they both fully agree with each other when it comes to Iran.

Adjudicated rapist says what?

Sharing a real time request sent by a friend. MASS CALL FOR BODIES AT DELANEY HALL. ICE IS ATTEMPTING TO TRANSFER THE HUNGER STRIKE ORGANIZERS OUT OF THE FACILITY.

Sometimes you have to be kind instead of nice. He should have been in the public domain forty four years ago.

Cuba's minister of energy confirmed reserves are gone — with just enough diesel left to keep hospitals online. The UN has classified Washington's blockade a humanitarian crisis.

He would rather take from the people than give anything back.

Incredible reporting showing an ICE agent at the center of Trump's attempt to punish freedom of speech in Spokane case has posted racist, homophobic, misogynistic tweets under his own name, including about this case. This is why local outlets owned by journalists, not MAGA billionaires are critical

Washington & Hawaii Planned Parenthoods are now providing abortion pills in advance so folks can have them on their shelf if needed for the future. This is a great way to lessen the impact of future MAGA attacks on our reproductive freedoms, buy us time to fight back, and will save lives.

America could stop exporting oil and instead keep it for Americans. Imagine the drop in oil cost and everything else as a result.

#BREAKING U.S. Attorney Andrew Boutros annoucnes that charges against the remaining members of the "Broadview Six" will be dismissed with prejudice.

One year later. "We're seeing a downturn in consumer sentiment and interaction within our stores. Revenue is shifting down but we're optimistic that is short term". Wait for it.

Wasn't he fucking a couch during Covid?

The Religious Right is desperate these days to pretend that "Christian Nationalism" is (1) a recently-invented term and (2) a pejorative invented by their enemies, but neither of those claims is remotely true. Here's a short thread, but I'm sure other historians will have examples too.

From the river to the sea and Gaza to Los Angeles, Palestine will be free. 🇵🇸

I cut up a trailer! For a video! You can literally see it!

Breaking the Nebraska GOP’s filibuster-proof majority would block: 1️⃣ Passing new voting restrictions. 2️⃣ Gerrymandering the light blue 2nd District. 3️⃣ Erasing the 2nd’s “blue dot” to stop Dems from winning the Electoral College just by flipping MI, PA, & WI. Dems currently rely on GOP defections

"Next on... WILL HE BOMB IT?!! Don't change that channel!" The vile way Trump spews his rhetoric without any challenge from the media or push back from the GOP continues. If our leaders won't lead, then we must.

Today is Endangered Species Day. The Trump administration has rolled back protections for: —Wolverines —Sea turtles —Monarch butterflies —Bison —Polar bears —Rice's whales —Alligator snapping turtles —Saltmarsh sparrows —Florida panthers

Subnautica 2 launched 20 minutes ago. Safe to say Krafton will be forced to pay out the $250 million bonus it tried very hard (via advice of ChatGPT) to avoid paying

if you want to be on firmer legal ground re: clips being shared or used to train *certain AI generative websites*, make sure this setting is OFF. You're legally granting anyone permission to take your shit if it's ON.

If only we didn't get our paternity leave gutted. Our wages stagnate. Our healthcare crushed. Our food ruined. Our education gutted. And everything else that has been happening for the last 40 years.

Waiting to see Fox and the like call this "Power Napping". Because he's a man and has no time for normal naps.

Brian Heywood & his fellow ultra-rich Republicans lost their court case today to kill the Millionaires Tax. And we're going to make sure they lose again when we make their initiative to kill funding for free school lunches & sales-tax free diapers go down in flames on the ballot.

If the games industry had the power to make certain games a cultural phenomena with global hit sales, it would so all the time. However, the games industry cannot even agree on what "alpha" means

Anyone else waiting for the gold to chip off come winter?

Guerilla Games’ co-founder and the former technical director of Epic Games says he’s building a new game engine that will offer a ‘European alternative’ to American tech like Unreal and Unity. vgc.news/news/guerill...

Trump's DOJ just ended a major Biden-era antitrust lawsuit against AgriStats — whose price-fixing scheme allegedly raised chicken, pork, and turkey prices — with a slap-on-the-wrist settlement. Amid rising inflation, Trump has given Big Ag the green light to rip you off more.

virginia voters should call their delegates and senators and demand that they ignore this illegitimate ruling

Sounds like a threat.

Shocking stuff from the CEO of Vornado Realty Trust on his latest earnings call:

Gary Chambers to @weareufd.bsky.social: "The very core of this is undemocratic and un-American, to tax Black people in Louisiana and then deny us representation is the very premise of robbing us of our ability to be full citizens in this country"

This robot installs 80 panels/hour. One every 45 sec. 1,920/day ≈ 0.0008 GW/day per line. Sounds small. It’s not. Scale this across thousands of lines and #solar becomes manufacturing, not construction. 👉 10,000 lines = 8 GW/day. That’s HOW China is winning the energy game.

Pakistan's trade agreement with China has resulted in a solar boom. Rooftop solar is booming, quickly becoming 20% of their energy mix, even causing Pakistan to cancel LNG orders from Qatar because it's no longer needed for the day www.theguardian.com/environment/...
