Guarantee these numbers will be lower, if not negative again, once revised.

I swear the last two weeks have been nothing but manufactured hype for AI from any news outlet that'll peddle it. I'm highly annoyed about it.

The one that got me into this medium was Jak & Daxter. If Sony could do one thing right, it would be to remake or reimagine the series starting with Precursor Legacy. There is so much with the universe that you could do.

They always say spending is up, but don't they realize it's because everything is more expensive?

OpenAI and Microsoft executives privately described their AI products as substitutes for journalism, according to court filings made public on Thursday that the New York Times and other news outlets say gut the tech companies' fair-use defense in a closely watched copyright case.

I have a laptop with a 4060 in it so I might just try that in there as my new writing, Godot and Blender laptop. Should also help free up the stupid amount of space Windows takes up on the 512 SSD I got in there.

I've been meaning to try Mint, it seems to basically have everything I'd need besides office and Resolve compatibility. But at this point I could use a markdown editor instead or use LibreOffice to convert it into word docs for distribution.

Dez Brown @dezbrown.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
I literally only have Win11 at the moment because of Davinci Resolve having a specific distro to use it and don't have the know how to make it compatible with say Bazzite or CachyOS. But then again, I could always just dual boot 🤷🏾‍♂️.

To say that SteamOS and other Linux based operating systems won't be necessary is to disregard the growing sentiment of using open source software to steer away from closed ecosystems like Windows. Having a free console-like experience will always have viability.

The mainstream media's failure to understand that Blanche's memo doesn't end the IRS immunity for Trump, let alone guarantee that the slush fund is dead, is one of the biggest travesties to modern journalism. Support independent journalism.

SHOCK NYT REPORT: DHS now admits the man ICE killed in Houston wasn't even their target. Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a 35-year U.S. resident, was just driving to work when agents — with no body cameras — shot him dead searching for two other men who weren't even in the van. Gift link in reply.

I did. I'm merely stating that Kojima Productions wouldn't be affected by this because they could always find a new publisher, like PlayStation, and not have to make cuts. Especially after the success of DS1 and DS2.

Why would Kojima Productions be affected? They're not owned by Xbox.

That's precisely my point. Israel is actively committing a genocide. Its been confirmed 10 times over. We should not care what that country wants, instead they should be treated like Nazi Germany.

Genuinely, what does Israel have ANYTHING to do with American policies or politics. Can someone PLEASE explain why there is so much emphasis on this one specific country instead of going with the flow?
