Random things I found great about Silksong:
- There’s an item that makes a consistent low-grade annoying noise as long as it’s in your inventory
- The game managed to be anti-capitalist and anti-theology at the same time. Efficiency!
- Setting your weapon on fire also reduces cold damage you take

I’ve given Marvel so much of my collective brain space over the years without even really meaning to or feeling particularly strongly about them.

I wonder what that tipping point is for a brand in general 🤔

The strongest argument for GIF with a hard G is clarity. It is less ambiguous in its meaning when pronounced that way. It helps you spell the acronym, which improves comprehension.
It also transitively precludes that GUI would be pronounced as “jewey”, which is a separate anti-homophonic benefit.

Anyone trying to sell you something ubiquitous must first convince you that a ubiquitous product that it substitutes is bad.
Look out for smartphone FUD soon. (Like Humane, but by people with some competence)
It will be wrapped in a paper-thin veneer of humanism. It will be sales.
