Why do video games cost so much to make these days? A recent NYT article pinned bloated budgets on the graphical arms race, but that's only a small part of the equation. The real problem? Rampant mismanagement. This week's column is a spicy one: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

This is my service dog, Tali—I been without her for a year and a half because I had to flee my home country for safety. ❤️‍🩹 If you can help reunite us, it would mean so much. We only need $500 more to be able to afford bringing her home! ❤️ www.gofundme.com/f/help-a-tra... #HelpSky #MutualAid

people online are upset that Walz required schools to put menstrual products in the men’s restrooms. but it’s no big deal to put something in the men’s room most men don’t use. they already do that with the hand soap

Okay so to be clear we are destroying power grids, the livelihoods of actual humans beings, and communication/research infrastructure for the sake of an algorithm that converts stolen data into unreliable stolen data and consistently loses millions of dollars. Just to be clear

One of the toughest problems Microsoft has to solve is that Windows has to serve two very different types of users: business users who don't want this at all, and home users who don't want this at all.

Somebody said JK Rowling is literally beefing with people she knew when they were 9 years old because they think people are entitled to to rights and dignity and for me that really made it clear for me that she does not live a single day of unfettered joy and you know what, good.

“Is it technically fascism?” “Is it technically rape?” “Is it technically genocide?” Remarkable the smug ease with which so many people have replaced moral inquiries with semantic ones.

This. Promising (female) talent gets preyed on, then punished for objecting or speaking out, and oftentimes leaves the industry discouraged by the total lack of accountability or learns to keep themselves small and unnoticeable for their own safety.

if you're upset about "seeing nude photos in your feed" maybe you should use the moderation filters provided for you - oh wait, the default setting is "hide" which means you turned that off and you DO in fact want to see nudes in your feed, you fucking hypocrite

Books designed to be read only by human eyes are different from books designed to be read by machines, which is why Google will tell you that the phrase “shake my booty” can be found in an 1863 English translation of Don Quixote.

This. It's the usual fascist circus act, they yell and scream and insist that they are legion and everyone is secretly on their side, but they flinch like children at the mere IMPLICATION of actual pushback. It's a culture of abject fear, it's pathetic

People who keep saying things like "unions will help game workers keep their jobs" should know this. Like, internalize it with every fiber of your being. MOST unions operate like this. The economy has shifted to a gig economy. "Job security" is not a thing any more, if it ever was.

Hey, folks. the ACLU has a petition going, requesting MasterCard repeal their ban on processing payments for sex workers and adult content sellers. It would be pretty cool if you signed it, and spread the word. action.aclu.org/petition/mas...

the absolute funniest thing about these goblins is that its been TEN YEARS and there still isnt a "based" games site. There isn't the market for it, there isn't the talent for it.
