Love my Company-Mandated 13 movie prologue to a movie I'm probably going to forget once I leave the cinema

Silicon Valley has forgotten what normal people want Did the tech industry get high on its own supply?

Its not a hot take but man the way the word "content" is used these days. A vile bit of late stage capitalist propaganda, lumping all forms of human creativity and expression into a single wastebin teaching the public to treat all art as disposable.

When trying to make the game you want and pandering to a crowd of people with the emotional intelligence of pre-school children and the temperament of wild dogs collide. I'd say he's close to realising his folly but lets be real he doesn't care at all.

Trying to get to them while they're young in the environments where they would otherwise historically be learning crucial skills.

this is such a nice, succinct example of private equity

go public, get bought, the new owners couldn't give a rats ass about shoes, wring like $300 out of a crypto pump and dump on brand recognition, and then will probably claim all this as tax losses, and it goes under. Easy money

Hold on they might be on to something here

My favourite thing about bsky is how every 3rd time I decide to visit the entire site is just completely non functional

idk what you mean looks just fine to me

OpenAI: We’re burning money like the Joker. A miracle needs to happen for us to turn a profit

Microsoft: Please please use our AI systems, we’re teetering on the edge here

Anthropic: I wonder what’ll kill us first: lawsuits, regulations or model collapse

Media and universities: AI is here to stay

Some people are legitimately so spiritually evil that their terror that inflicts the many overshadows the terror that inflicts the individual. It's sad yeah.

Credit where it's due. I'm very happy to see the D2R team are choosing to blow the Warlock's kneecaps off (aka fixing how bugged the class is) instead of "just buffing underperforming classes", which has always been a trojan horse for balance to become a trillion-tick arms race across the board.

Genuinely mindblowing how much contempt these people have for the very concept of actually earning a vote through even symbolic action.

Honestly I think Zero and ReMake (lets remember that the GC version is already a ground up remake in itself) have basically not aged a day in their HD ports. CVX is the obvious pick, as the original outing was deeply flawed and had its quality suppressed by deadlines and oversight limitations.

Celebrating a full decade of "At least we aren't Trump"-centered political messaging 🥳

So many companies have set up full-time slop factories that its all the consumers expect now. It's a trained response. They don't see a piece of entertainment anymore. They see A Service™

The real brain wave is when you realise "Yes, Ancient Civilisations definitely would've hidden their secrets via Square Block In Square Hole"

Focus group based empathy. When the needle shifts as we move forward they'll miraculously find their stones on it.

We all know an imsim is when you control the buttons you press.

You know you can just say Israel violated the ceasefire and thus voided it, right?

Something Has Happened indeed

Why did MJ do that 😥

I am stunned every day that programmers as an entire class were offered a choice between "preserve the open-source ecosystem" and "deniably steal GPL-licensed code whenever you want" and slammed the button on the latter with zero hesitation. an incredibly complete act of industry cannibalism
