look man I don’t have the time to argue with people over if they should be on twitter at all, I left a 130k account behind as soon as Elon took the reins, but if you’re paying money to Herr Corpselips to use his social media, I kinda look at your little blue checkmark like it’s a cybertruck

You are legally not allowed to beat yourself up about 2025, because somewhere out there is a man who got AI art tattooed onto him

it’s stupid to not use ai just because it can induce psychosis and generate child porn. it’s like saying you’re hungry when there’s a hot dog on the ground outside that induces psychosis and generates child porn

call me crazy but it really feels like “World’s Richest Man Creates AI Chatbot That Generates Child Porn” would’ve been a huge international outrage requiring a governmental crackdown not even 24 months ago

this one’s super shameful.
encryption was rolled out because 2020 activists learned how to listen to their scanners to know when SRG would be showing up to beat them up, and NYPD disliked that.
the only actual impact this has is preventing news teams from being able to report on emergencies.

Among the bills vetoed by Gov Hochul in the close of the year,
the "Keep police radio public act," which would have ensured that police dispatch radio remained audible to the press.
Encrypted radio communications make it much harder for the press to keep law enforcement accountable.

Apparently on Switch 2 the Monster Hunter Stories remaster has a nasty audio bug during FMVs where the sound keeps crackling *and* ends up desyncing so that it's *several seconds* behind the video. Amazing. 🫠
There's plenty more, of course. The second half of the Tomb Raider collection, Lorn's Lure, Outward (took a chance for $5), the first MH Stores (it was like $10), Metro Quester | Osaka, and Read Only Memories + Neuro Diver (both on sale, never played the sequel).

not to be that girl but various friends and acquaintances are still writing for the NYT and honestly i don't think you can keep pretending to be an ally if you're doing that
In this in-depth interview Billie Jean Sweeney — a former editor at The New York Times — details how the paper shifted towards openly promoting anti-trans hatred, why this was directed from the very top, how some staff pushed back and the immense damage done by the NYT legitimizing bigotry.

With a new 1 TB microSD card, some eShop credit from Diana, and a little of my own money (like $20), I now have a very robust library on my Switch 2. Mostly games that already I own and didn't have room for on the 256GB card I'd been using, but still, lots of new stuff too!
