I've actually been working my way through my backlog lately, so figured I'd make a thread talking about what I’ve been playing.

A vote for the Tories, Reform, or Labour is effectively a vote for Trumpism
Trump started it.

Reform and Tories are at it too.

And Labour already heading in that direction.

All cruel, potentially deadly and does nothing to fix the cost of living crisis.

I still have to use Windows for some things and it seems to be just about every day now I'm seeing complaints about it sucking in new ways. So here's a little list of tools I use to make Windows not suck by debloating virtually everything out of it that makes it bad and making it more usable. 🧵

Personal opinion:

If KS does agree to this, then he & every Labour MP who DOESN’T openly oppose I will consider to be traitors to the UK and its population.

"RemoveWindowsAI" is a script created by zoicware, available on GitHub, that does exactly what it says: it remove every AI feature in Windows 11. Do what you wish to do with this information. I'm sharing this because some folks are forced to use Win11 at work or other places for any reasons.

This is fucking pathetic on Steam’s part. There’s no way in hell “has muslims” should be approved as criticism, and the DEI whining is the same hateful sentiment with a flimsy cover draped on.

I can only assume Valve *agrees* with the bigotry if it’s gonna keep claiming such nerdzi shit is valid.
We had an Overwhelmingly Positive score on Steam, then these two reviews rolled in

Why does Valve allow this?

In case Crunchyroll paying its VAs peanuts for theatrical releases didn't make it obvious, the amount that companies would like to be paying people is zero dollars.
Hey just so you know Amazon decided to give us an AI ENGLISH DUB of Banana Fish instead of actually hiring real voice actors

My wife is trans. I fear for her everyday. I see her heartbreak every time she is discriminated against, how she second guesses if she should go ahead and be who she really is. She just wants to live her life and be herself! She is no threat to anyone! UK women, please consider signing this.

Hey.

Kindly reminder.

Content creators are not your friends just because you like their work. You do not know who we are.

This goes double for anyone under 18; be very careful about interacting with adults.

If any adult makes you feel uncomfortable, DO NOT ENGAGE THEM. RUN.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

If you're using Windows 11, Microsoft is now surveilling you in a new way. This may already be turned on on your computer, and you would not be notified; it activates whenever they detect you are in a "game", which in my experience Microsoft often false-positives on

Wife's watching Pokémon DP's anime and my god, how is it that none of the characters ever thought of socking Paul in the face? Being reminded of the treated Chimchar again has made me irrationally angry.
