So many people are complaining about the black and white passthrough of the Steam Frame, meanwhile I've only ever used the Oculus Rift S.

Make not opposing genocide hurt more than Israel works to make opposing genocide hurt. Make it hurt politicians' odds. Make it hurt artists' sales. Make it hurt medias' reputation. Make it hate platforms' revenues. Make it career-endingly devastating to stand there and "both sides" mass murder.

TBF this particular fantasy dates at least back to the 60s, when people like David Gerrold & Harlan Ellison used it as a metaphor for political & economic systems that seemed out of our own control.

Bluesky just sent me all my past notifications! I thought somehow a post or reply blew up but all I saw was ordinary notifications. What the fuck is wrong with this site?

In general nothing should aim to be "for the whole world". That always comes either with a colonial mindset or with blind spots as big as the milky way. Focus on serving a defined group of people. An actual community with shared values. And /maybe/ connect to other communities. If you want.

This is a somewhat popular but also explicitly bad take: Culture as inspiration through human reception is something radically different from accumulation of all cultural works by corporations trying to rent "creativity" and "agency" back to us. Mixing those things feels very deceptive.

I've just spent my entire morning and afternoon just obsessing over Ironmouse's "Music Box of Fate" and all the reaction/analysis/discussion videos surrounding it, all because I was watching VTuber clips. I'm in love with this song!! The video I was first shown: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7H-R...

One bus is going off a bridge, another bus is simply going to teeter off the edge of the bridge so it can be pushed. This is a functional democracy.

A fantastic feature of Windows 7 that I miss dearly is being able to play music on your phone and play it out of your PC. I can't believe this is just a native feature of Linux via BlueZ!!

Stephanie’s writing tips: 1) Write. Write write write. Write ideas. Write notes. Write without notes and see where it goes. Write what you want as soon as you want to. If the words are in your head, let them out. 2) Take breaks from tip one when it feels too hard, then resume tip one.

Platforms are not trying to combat "AI slop" to give you a better experience. They do it because "real training data that is unaffected by LLMs and therefore does not make the model collapse" is one of the few paths towards making money currently.

Inconvenience? I just had to dig seven pages deep to find the unsubscribe for one of the four TV subscriptions I need, I'm measured & optimized against in my supermarket, lamps, music, games, and travel. Every service I love gets enshittified to buy billionaires yachts worth 100 times my house.

The keyword here is "retrofit" because accounting for it from the start would be practically free And let's not forget that most lootbox gambling games are primarily single player and the online requirement mostly exists to protect the predatory monetization The devs only have themselves to blame

This is a fair question to ask, but so is the opposite: do all the people complaining about the censorship of Horses also complain about the censorship of anime titty games and the like? Because you can only truly be against censorship by opposing it with both of these, not just one or the other.
Anonymous post that says:

so do the "censorship in video games" crowd care about Horses (the game) being banned and taken down or is it only "censorship" when they cover some booby anime girl's midrif

Just got my 2 stars from #AdventOfCode 2025 Day 3. (I was a little late.) The second star was quite the doozie! I manually followed the process of reducing a number down one digit at a time while keeping it as large as possible, so many times! 😫 It took too long for me to figure out how it worked!

if a game has achievements, i think you should only be able to get all of them if you are intimately familiar with the game. like 'ive played through it 6 times, and occasionally do randomizers' familiarity. and more people need to be comfortable with only having 12/20 achievements

"it's unsafe" and "they might get hurt" and "they're too young" are a sort of plague-thinking on the knowledge rearing of generations, i think "i'll teach you how to be safe" is far preferable to "i won't expose you to it in any way that will be meaningful for you"

anthropic scraping libgen is a billion dollar industry taking advantage of a public good for personal gain. if some dipshit puts an entire library book through a copier and sells printouts, it is the dipshit you get mad at. not the library for giving him the book.

maybe it's the privilege of doing well enough in my field that i don't feel threatened by theoretical lost sales to piracy but anyone who'd steal a work was either a) never gonna pay for it in the first place or b) gonna pay for it when they were able to later c) has no option to pay for it

this is maybe trite at this point but it is in your interest to find ways to create things. basically everyone wants you to be consuming nonstop. making stuff, from cooking to photography or whatever, can help you feel more in control. doesn’t even have to be something you share with other people

@dmawdev.bsky.social So I finally got to try the demo of the Sushi Ben but the camera was stuttering all over the place. I use an Oculus Rift S with SteamVR. If I open the Steam VR menu, I can look around and walk around smoothly, but as soon as I'm back in-game, it becomes very unstable.

Being an online artist is hard because people will treat you like a normal person until you set boundaries or just ask them to stop doing something. That offends a lot of people for some reason.
