Remember kids, a rich bigot torturing her economic inferiors to death is fine because there's no rule against it, but if a poor mouths off at her that's worse than ten holocausts

The secret of most workplaces is that they don’t actually care about productivity or even profit, they care about fragile hierarchical egos (typically men’s). The only workplaces I have ever excelled long term at are places where the primary goal is just to be the best you can.

Notable LGBTQ2S+ results for Vancouver city council: ✨ Solomon Yi-Kieran is non-binary uses they/them pronouns. ✨ Devyani Singh is queer. ✨ And not for nothing, Sean Orr is regularly seen in a "protect trans kids hat," and I can report he was LOUDLY leading chants at the Trans March this year.

You aren't going to "educate" Flanagan et al out of what is a lucrative grift. He, and others, have spent a lifetime denigrating Indigenous Peoples. Many of them are HIGHLY educated. Education is not a panacea. So we need additional interventions.

PSA: The latest NVIDIA App update adds a Default-ON option that allows AI Agents to control the app... Might want to turn it off.. Even aside from being lame AI features, that feels like making security even worse by defaulting it ON.
Screenshot of the Nvidia app's "Settings > Features" section.
Showing the newly added "AI Agents and App Connections" section.
The option for "Allow Agents to control NVIDIA App" is enabled by default.
This happened in version 11.0.9.565

An explanation on why Big Walk isn't available on Xbox. bigwalk.game/xbox
Regarding Xbox

In June 2026 we announced that the release of Big Walk would be limited to computers, Switch 2 and PS5. Since then, we have received many messages and comments, asking about a future Xbox release. We would like to address those questions here:

We have made the decision not to release Big Walk on Xbox, in accordance with the Palestinian-led BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions) movement’s call to boycott Microsoft, and their designation of Microsoft Games (and Xbox) as a priority boycott target. If you need help understanding our motives, we would recommend reading about why Microsoft is a BDS priority target, the successes this kind of pressure has already had on Microsoft, and especially, watching this great introductory piece by People Make Games.

It has always been our intention for Big Walk to be played by groups of friends, and we know that keeping the game off Xbox runs counter to those intentions. This decision means that some people will miss out on playing Big Walk with their friends, and we understand the disappointment we’re causing. We are disappointed too.

We would love for people to be able to play the game on Xbox, but not until Microsoft and/or Xbox have been removed as BDS boycott targets.

We’ve made this decision with the belief that meaningful change can be made in the world, that coordinated collective action can confront even the most powerful interests, and that one day, Palestine will be free.

Thank you for your understanding.

Sincerely,
House House
