I really wanted to like that game but it didn’t quite click with me. I’m glad they made something unique and reached some people.

It’s okay we just need to build community fabs. Anyone know how to build a fab?

The crime here was faking the play counts with listening bots, thus closing the loop. If an artist built a machine to play their own song a billion times to make them money, that would also be a crime, I suppose.

Thanks for the info, I didn’t know that.

Reminder to keep one of those window breaker hammers in your car.

Also don’t buy cars from megalomaniacal nazis.

Are you saying the facts are wrong?

I remember when silicon valley used to build products that would help people improve their lives.

The reaper or capitalist enshittification comes for all industries eventually.

It’s unclear to me whether they would have known about this. I presume cross checking the targets should be done at each level down to the person pulling the trigger.

Is it confirmed that everyone in the chain knew?

If it makes you feel any better, we will probably survive and restart the cycle.

Corporate democrats and republicans both exist to propagate and entrench the power of the oligarchy. Epstein was a nexus of power for the oligarchy. He wanted everyone in power to owe him.

You answered your own question. The task for men is to trust women when they describe their experiences, even if it’s completely invisible and alien to their own experiences. Reading detailed firsthand accounts is a good way to build understanding.

Step 1: rebuild all the infrastructure

How do we make that happen?

It was legally limited but he immediately imposed new tariffs anyway.

Ten years ago I used to make the argument that having a psychopath with the mind of a toddler controlling the nukes was enough reason for supporting him to be and inherently insane, irrational act of pure irresponsibility. Everyone said I was over-reacting.

Satire always is specific to a place and time. The gag isn’t funny anymore.

The money is in real games, made by real humans, small teams, low budgets, no corpo meddling. It’s time to unplug from these huge corporations and their agendas. They are the ones out of touch. They are the ones in a bubble. The indie scene is thriving. Check it out!

Perhaps there is some future market for infinite AI generated slop, but I want no part in that. Games are art. We learn from and relate to art, grow as people. AI is nothing more the. infinite flashing lights. This is dystopian bread and circuses to keep us docile while the billionaires and civilization.
