“The $TRUMP memecoin — a financial asset that didn't exist on Friday afternoon — now accounts for about 89% of Donald Trump's net worth.” Trump just became one of the top 25 richest people on earth. Through this. Insane, open & now normalized corruption.

BREAKING: PlayStation has canceled two more live-service games, from subsidiaries Bend and Bluepoint, Bloomberg has learned.

The Supreme Court ruled corporations were allowed to donate unlimited amounts to politicians in 2010. It only took them 6 years to take complete control of the government and 15 years to mark sure their voices are the only ones the masses ever hear again.

Les nouvelles cartes graphiques Nvidia vont encore augmenter en conso électrique. La 5090 va pousser les PC haut de gamme à 1000W en installation totale, ce qui est assez fou. Je sais que c'est une puissance théorique maximale et pas une estimation de consommation, mais quelques calculs s'imposent.

Fuck them. Les vieux geeks toxiques pas foutus de remettre en question les angles morts de leurs imaginaires, c'est la plaie de cette commu. Et ça devrait d'autant moins l'être qu'on devrait savoir ce que c'est, de ne pas être considérés par la société, les vieux rôlistes.

That a dude with a couple cameras and a plate of appetizers can make something worth $82.5 million and a media company looks at that and goes "couldn't we make even more money if we had AI do it?" tells you exactly how stupid these people are

Fellow hobbyist: Vallejo is treating its workers terribly and they are on an indefinite strike. Please spread the word and let everyone know about it. We have all used their products, the brand has grown a lot over the years, but the benefits have only gone to the management and shareholders.

Good. It’s horrific how other platforms abused their reach to strangle local, independent, and national outlets alike. I WANT to see news and actual vetted work and I WANT journalists to get rewarded for it. Because I want to live in a thinking human world over some AI generated slop dystopia

1. Consent in our pseudo-democracies is strained at the best of times, but it hangs on the belief that there is some kind of justice: through inquiries, tribunals, sometimes even the law, powerful people who commit crimes against us will one day be held to account. But what if this no longer works?🧵

How much more evidence do we need, after 29 failures, that the climate COPs are not fit for purpose? Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. There have been many proposals for a process that would actually work, but all are ignored. The talks are MEANT to fail.

The other exploding area of dark money in politics is the crypto lobby. They have dumped insane sums in elections in both parties (Dem primaries + GOP general elections). It’s pretty bad

the lesson of the election isn’t “we should give up on trans rights,” it’s that the GOP took an issue that negatively impacted almost no one and made it a headliner. why would it help to surrender on an issue if they can create a grievance from thin air?

I feel mislead by all dystopian literature. It's supposed to be a powerful authoritarian government that lords over a cowering population, and and we just need need a few brave acts of heroism to give the people the courage to rise up. Instead it's just half the country being dumb and mean.

This is a war not just against the living planet, not just against the common good, but against the very nature of material reality. The ultimate expression of power is to say "night is day", and have others believe you. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
