If you have never played Morrowind before but like the more recent Elder Scrolls games, we'd like for you to sincerely give it a try and tell us what you think about it.
The game is half off on GOG right now at $7.50, and available as part of Game Pass.

Alex Pretti é a mais recente vítima dos agentes do serviço de imigração norte-americano (ICE). Natural dos Estados Unidos, o homem foi morto a tiro em Minneapolis, no estado de Minnesota. A administração alega que os agentes agiram em legítima defesa, mas testemunhas contradizem esta versão.

So the SAVE Act... It passed the House. That means anyone who has changed their legal name better get a valid passport ASAP or change their name back to match their birth certificate if it passes. If they still want to vote that is 🙃

I “like” how this headline calls AI a boom.
And by like I mean “I admire the sheer audacity of people who claim this about GenAI— as if it’s some kind of inevitable force that benefits everyone rather than an abject failure the average person is already sick of.”

US history is generally taught as Plymouth Rock, blank space, War of Independence, blank space, Civil War, blank space, World War II, blank space, 9/11, so this checks out
There are lots of reasons to compare what is happening now to Nazi Germany and there are also lots of reasons to compare what is happening now to the post-1850 Fugitive Slave Act U.S. and it's *weird* how people respond with interest to the former but total confusion to the latter

Reminder that the argument against GenAI has MULTIPLE points and all matter:
1. It is theft
2. It puts people out of work
3. It uses disproportionate resources
4. It removes artistic agency
Do not let someone go "but they don't do 1 and 2!" Distract you from the others

You know how we can be sure that the people next to Trump are not qualified to be there?
Because anyone with a general knowledge of history knows what the fate of politicians/sycophants to a fascist dictator is when he's deposed.

Let's make 2026 the year we bully ride app companies into adding a "do not pick me up in a Swastikar" configuration option to their apps.
