“you’re a world historic mass murderer” is getting to him, huh maybe he shouldn’t have chosen to be a world historic mass murderer

Moving and hiding left-wing flyers is what the Nazis almost got my great-grandfather for. And it's only almost because he was warned that they were coming for him and was able to hide them even better. If you ever doubted that the US is a fascist country, doubt no more.

It’s worth noting as a comparison that there was only one group at the 2017 “Unite the Right” rally in Virginia — the Rise Above Movement — that faced federal criminal charges related to the riot.

There’s nothing to talk about today other than what’s just occurred in the Prairieland case. An unfathomable abuse of power at the hands of a judge dead set on aligning himself with the other disgusting fascist enablers of history’s past. A history lesson for the judge; repression fuels resistance.

JUST IN: Aliya Rahman, the Minneapolis woman whose image went viral after ICE agents inexplicably dragged her out of her car on her way to a doctor’s appointment, just hit DHS with a federal complaint alleging its officers violated disability and human rights laws. www.huffpost.com/entry/aliya-...

There are no perfect protestors, no perfect political prisoners, no perfect way to resist fascist violence. The state sees us all the same. Ask the Haymarket martyrs. Ask Fred Hampton. Hold the Prairieland defendants close. Give them your support, your letters, your love. They WILL come home.

there's something remarkable how on a scientific level we're performing what would essentially be miracles and on a cultural/political level, we're going in reverse

when someone gains skill to where they can build and mentor a team to greater levels of accomplishment than they can achieve alone it’s important for the leader and mentor to not make the success about themselves to the point of getting angry at the team they are building for not yet being enough

If the AAA gaming industry profit model needs to be readjusted for an era of austerity and degrowth, sure, but first I'd like to see how much a big 5 year game costs if we cut off only executive salaries, executive bonuses, useless HR departments, idiot marketers, and a carrion army of managers.

This stupid idea immediately entered my head

6 years ago today i officially became a full time writer when a guy doxxed me to my very religious boss at the construction firm by sending her an assortment of thirst traps & posts about hating my job — thank you all for making me what i always wanted to be when i grew up patreon.com/raxkingisdead

yeah the steam machine is expensive, but the good news is everyone is making so much more money thanks to our AI-enhanced productivity

it was literature pub quiz night and our team name "flowers for algae gone" didn't get a single laugh, this isn't the country i grew up in

i do think we're at a point where it's kind of beyond supporting developers with individual purchases. i don't know. it's a tough nut to crack but there's something kind of flippant about "i'll just pirate PS2 games forever!" when like a third of the industry has been laid off

it's heavily consumer-focused right. like, hey, at least there'll be enough escapism for us to have fun for the rest of our lives! sure. but don't you want to get in on the ground floor of something new and exciting? don't you want people to be able to make a living making games?

this is going to sound weird from someone whose job is literally playing retro games for hours on end but i do think that while "you can play PS2 games for the rest of your life and never run out" is a healthy way to ride out this hostile period in gaming history, we still need like...new games lol

i do find the imagery of pouring endless, unnecessary money into a corroded mirror of rancid water a little heavy handed

okay so computer parts are just cartel shit now

CXMT, break the memory companies' kneecaps. Make them bleed.

Valve is not gonna subsidize it, because they genuinely don't know how much they're going to be paying for memory/storage and how much they'll even be allowed to buy until they are told. The Steam Machine is entirely at the whims of the RAM cartel who wants to sell volume to AI companies.

Finally watched the GN Steam Machine video, hearing Valve employees say that the real reason some Steam Machines are going to only be 1 stick of RAM is "the memory companies give us a price and what we can buy, and if we say no they will never work with us again" is actually insane

This isn't a joke, it's not hyperbole, this is what they actually said - and GN mentioned the same is happening to companies like G. Skill who have been selling RAM to consumers for *decades*

Not remotely surprised that a community built around honing your skills to test against others sees gAI for what it is. Even more so given that the art has *always* been important and valued in FGC circles. The games reward you with art galleries. Theres so many fighting game art books.

You ever notice how many of these actors and directors selling out to AI are either a) directly invested in it or b) really old, looking for easy royalty money for their grandkids and probably not in the best state of mind to make these decisions

Hey man, you're doing the thing I'm talking about in the post by jumping to "they're going to shoot innocent people"

What? Absolutely not. These are the actions of a wildly unpopular administration that should be mocked, not feared. Don’t give these yutzes more than they deserve by making them powerful or scary in your head.

Another great one

BREAKING: Judge Patrick Schiltz has quashed several DOJ grand jury subpoenas aimed Gov. Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey, saying they were part of a retaliatory effort over their refusal to aid Trumpa dmin immigration enforcement efforts. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

This paragraph forcefully upholding the right to legally observe ICE (and any governmental authority) is so so important right now

we got 1000 dollar consoles now but it's chill cause the worst person you know can generate fake videos of things they pretend happen to get mad at on demand

Yeah, fuck this. Our public money is essentially being diverted from science to supporting the stock prices of ruling party donors.

Folks saying that valve should just subsidise the deck are… clearly blissfully unaware of what would immediately happen if ‘cheaper than it should be computer running Linux’ was put on sale online. I envy that lack of engagement. I aspire to it.

One reason I harp on this is bc you cannot understand Broadview 6 unless you understand that DOJ immediately moved to charge mostly Dem political figures RATHER THAN figuring out who scratched PIG into the SUV, if in fact protestors did. This pretends to be like Jan6. But it worked in reverse.

The thing is that I’m not really that optimistic about the device itself, it’s fine if a little weak. Bizarre little “just enough” computer. I’m optimistic about how the work required to make the system work will potentially benefit everyone else who has to make do with the hardware they have.
