Did this on Xitter, want to continue the tradition here too. It helps me keep track of everything I've played over the course of the year.

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

Very pleasantly surprised that those new Tomb Raider games seem like normal Tomb Raider games and not the weird multiplayer thing that had been leaked a while back.

Get ‘em. Rockstar makes a bajillion dollars from gta online alone every year, they can afford to not be union busting fucks.
ROCKSTAR UPDATE:
Keir Starmer was just asked about the Rockstar firings in Parliament today where he described the situation as "deeply concerning" and promised it would be looked into by government ministers.
Not that a Starmer promise is worth much, mind.

This is what will they would say in the face of assured regulatory scrutiny, sure.
What they say now and what they'll do later (and intend on doing so) is likely very different.

Maaaan, I loved Crucial’s storage drives because they were on the cheaper end and worked well. I was even trying to get some of their RAM for my new pc build last week but it never shipped after weeks of waiting so I cancelled and went with Corsair before it got too expensive.
Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead. It’s already getting hard to build an affordable PC, and the exit of the longstanding provider of consumer memory is going to make that even more challenging www.theverge.com/news/837594/...

I don't think anything radicalized me as much as realizing taxes are purposefully kept difficult so that one company can make a profit on software
TurboTax is about to be integrated into ChatGPT, where customers will be guided through tasks tied to their tax filings or financial profile by the AI chatbot.
TurboTax owner Intuit is also paying OpenAI more than $100 million a year to power AI agents.

I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct.
That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting.

Hey @moderation.bsky.app @support.bsky.team if you actually answered @brisskitty.bsky.social appeal emails instead of ghosting people for over 2 weeks, she wouldn't have to use a backup account that existed since before the suspension. You fucking hacks.

I guess while I’m making my monthly posts, I deleted twitter off my phone a few weeks ago and as a result I essentially quit looking at it cold turkey. One of the better decisions I’ve made lately. That algorithm truly wants you to doomscroll, and I’m done with it.
