Y'know, at least with crypto and NFTs I could studiously ignore it. Companies are so desperate for you to use LLMs, and to gain more info to train them, that when they're not trying to sneak it in, they're actively making your experience worse if you try to opt out of it!

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

It's very funny to me that in Super Robot Wars Y, the main base of operations is a legit city-state with people living in it, and yet Bright Noah still refuses to move his family to the legit city-state so he can actually be around them for any length of time. Bright, you really do suck as a dad.

Suletta and Lilique badgering Heero about his relationship with Relena, and Kallen trying to relay the first time Heero and Relena met, only to be silenced by an glare by Heero is the sort of crossover nonsense I adore in Super Robot Wars.

I broke my own heart by realizing I had the timing wrong, and Super Robot Wars Y comes out next Thursday, not next Tuesday like I stupidly thought.

Big lol at the people STILL DEFENDING ITCH after everything that's come out, and all the stupid things they've said and done. Sure they've just deindexed LGBT+ art, kept money from creators, have been caught lying on multiple occasions, and are smearing a journalist, but they're an uwu smol bean!
Hi Itch, author of the original article here. Thanks for ignoring my repeated requests to comment, and then coming out of the woodwork days later to claim that my article - which verified each game's indexing status independently - is 'full of misinformation.'
You're full of it. (thread)

This article is full of misinformation unfortunately. The games Wendy and co. are indexed: itch.io/search?type=...
I think maybe the person is confused because it doesn't show up in the autocomplete? Autocomplete only shows the top ~1000 games: itch.io/t/3361091/se...

Hockey Canada can go fuck off, our country in general needs to fucking stop worshipping at the feet of hockey goons, and the judge who made this monstrous decision should immediately resign, and I hope they're plagued with guilt for the rest of their life.

(1/5) What is it about being in charge of an organization of any size that either seems to remove your spine, or turn you into a monster? I'm not even talking, like, companies and governments (though this is certainly inspired by that), but, like

Maybe we shouldn't of let just two US-based companies control how payments are processed worldwide over the Internet. That seems like a bad idea.

I will never not find it hilarious that FF14 makes you choose a Grand Company after a questline where a member of one of the Grand Company actively betrays you.

If you're still on Twitter at this point, I am just going to think less of you now. No, I don't care about whatever justification you have.

It's bad enough websites pestering you about Adblock, but if you're restricting portions of your website behind 'Please Accept Our Targetting Cookies' you're pretty much Satan.

Remember when Microsoft kept hinting and teasing that what they really wanted to do was buy Nintendo, and that they thought Nintendo was just being a silly-billy and someday they had to see the light? That's what I'm remembering today. For no reason, honest.

Just a thought, but maybe instead of resigning when the fascist demands it, you...don't? Make him have it. You might think it's noble and you're making a dignified point falling on your sword, but it's actually just cowardly. Go out kicking and screaming and making them drag you out.

Isn't it amazing whenever someone commits suicide due to online harassment, there's always a deluge of people who go "No, you don't understand, I had real criticisms! It was everyone else who was the harassers!"

For me, the most tedious political commentary I've seen in the Trump Years as someone not from the US is "They're doing X to divert attention from Y!"
I assure you, the people who are doing them aren't doing one thing to distract from another. They don't care to distract you. They want to do both.

I really hate when doing something annoying and tedious becomes the accepted meta for a game. For example, looking up builds in Baldur's Gate 3, most of them come with the expectation that you'll spend the better part of an hour farming dozens of STR potions from an Act 1 vendor. No? That's boring?
