A photo of Diana from Pragmata holding a picture she drew of herself and Hugh, the game’s character you control. It looks child-like and seemingly drawn with crayon.

What an insane #OpeningDay for Skenes. 37 pitches, 5 runs, and done.

Have to wonder what the odds were of a first-inning exit.

Wondering why so many tech stories involve stuff like this?

I recommend reading Laura Bates’ “The New Age of Sexism”

Every AI advancement, new technology, and form of “progress” we make as a society with new electronic tools and digital spaces will come for women eventually if not inherently.

There’s a good chance I go see Project Hail Mary again in theaters and I never do that. What a dream of an adaptation.

Grabbed it and have about 3 hours in it so far. As a huge fan of “here’s a list of things to work toward” cozy games, it plays great and has Pokémon-checks all boxes for me.

Daniel, you say you’ve been organizing in the streets.

Real organizers don’t stand around with their hands in their pockets while others do the work.

Let’s stop pretending.

Memory Shortages Leave Steam Deck Out of Stock Indefinitely The ability to buy a Steam Deck is currently not an option for gamers as AI data centers eat up all the RAM on the market. Check out Taylor’s thoughts here!

I wonder how far these shortages of the #SteamDeck or consoles like #PS5 and #Switch2 go.

Is there a world where in 2027 we're back to tracking in-stock alerts for consoles that are years old?

PlayStation 6 Might Not Release Until 2029 Due to RAM Shortage Sony might hold off the PlayStation 6 to 2028/2029 as it struggles to access enough RAM for production. Check out Taylor’s article for details.

"95% of orgs reported zero return despite enterprise investments of $30-40 billion in AI. OpenAI will not even reach profitability until 2030, and even then, it would need over $200 billion to meet its needs."

Seems not worth all of this? And I don't mean gaming, I mean the US economy crashing.

There have been GOTY-nominated titles and upgraded versions of generational games offered in the first 250 days of its life.

I know its sales have slowed. I know Mario Kart and Metroid Prime 4 missed the high bar set for it, in some people's eyes.

But let's stop pretending it's dead on arrival.

Why Are We Panicking About the Switch 2? | Phenixx Gaming Is the Switch 2 really showing signs for concern, or is something broken in the way we reflect on the games industry? Check out Taylor’s thoughts here!

For years, people clamored for the Super Switch, an iterative upgrade of the 2017 console that is now Nintendo's most profitable hardware.

Kirby, Metroid, Donkey Kong, and Mario Kart all have new titles on the console.

Why are we panicking about the Switch 2?

Spending the evening finishing @mackeza.bsky.social’s new book Super Nintendo. I really love the way the narrative of the company’s biggest games are laid out here - well worth a read (or listen if you’re me)!

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is the most underrated game on the Switch 2. I wish we could get a few more side games in the BoTW/TotK Hyrule.

And I also love that he’s like “I just gotta make it through this shift and go on this trip” as if he somehow gets to leave himself behind at the hospital. Unfortunately, Robby, you bring allllll of that with you everywhere.

I’ve really appreciated the ways they’re letting it present itself that aren’t straight dialogue or literal panic attacks. It’s the lack of self-regulation in his nonverbals that I think are helping us catch up to how much turmoil he’s carrying.

Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade (Switch 2) Review Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is a testament to the power of Nintendo’s new home-handheld hybrid. Check out Taylor’s review here!

I can’t believe how good the #FFVIIRemake port is for #Switch2.

Getting to play through this story on what’s becoming my most used console was a real treat - Nintendo fans need to own this game in their collection.

I love the new Joyce Manor record a lot - one run-through so far this morning.

I don't think we see them break out in a huge way because of the record, but it does feel a bit more accessible for folks who aren't embedded in the punk or emo scenes.
