Seems like I’ll be going go UMAD this year, after seeing +R announced as a main game like in 2023. Might also go with some family and do other things in Montreal too, depending on what works out planning wise.~

I wish videos at least came with transcripts attached so I could just read those instead. Video is an unforgivably slow way to communicate and it makes me feel insane that so many people prefer it.

How to: Understand and Circumvent Network Censorship This is an overview of network censorship, but it is not comprehensive. Governments, companies, schools, and internet providers sometimes use software to prevent their users from accessing certain websites and services that are otherwise available on the open web. This is called internet filtering or blocking, and it is a...

In order to circumvent censorship, it's best to get an idea of what you're running into. Here's how to figure that out. ssd.eff.org/module/unde...

Extreme wealth has made a handful of men incompatible with everyone else's safety and well-being. You can resolve this by either removing the wealth or removing the men. Curious to hear which avenue they seem to prefer!

‘Don’t go to the US – not with Trump in charge’: the UK tourist with a valid visa detained by ICE for six weeks Karen Newton was in America on the trip of a lifetime when she was shackled, transported and held for weeks on end. With tourism to the US under increasing strain, she says, ‘If it can happen to me, i...

Again, I cannot emphasize enough: do not go to the US even if you're privileged enough to have never been scared or worried of a border crossing in you're life. Do not go ESPECIALLY for something as optional & outrageously expensive as GDC.

I always thought the whole "they want you dead" thing was just hyperbole. But I guess this makes the entire raw milk, no vax, more asbestos stuff make a lot more sense.

I keep thinking about this because I feel like it should be bigger news that we have confirmation that the richest, most powerful people in the world are colluding to come up with ways to kill the majority of the world's population.

Actually, if you want a fighting game with a single-player mode, might I recommend the first Fatal Fury? That's basically like a more fancy Yie Ar Kung Fu when you think about it. Pick one of three characters with unique moves, then fight a gauntlet of weirdos with messed up move sets and gimmicks.

…Sure., I’m feeling spicy today. Let’s say something nuclear:

It’s not about modes.
It’s not about accessibility.
It’s not about having a road map.

Your favorite game genre is probably not going to survive capitalism.

Is @hootsuite.com still a B corp, committed to social good? How do they square that with "social listening" contracts with ICE in 2026?

Vancouver, pay attention.
Hootsuite provides social media and surveillance tools to ICE. Their CEO has doubled down on the contract.
Monitoring dissent. Tracking public reaction. Managing PR for a violent agency.
This is complicity. @hootsuite.com

Gonna put out the bat signal but if anyone is carpooling to frosty’s and has a passport or is in Canada and can make a detour to Sault Ste. Marie Ontario and add me, I’d be grateful. I will pay for gas and expenditures but all flights that would get me there in time are canned

Copyright Should Not Enable Monopoly There’s a crisis of creativity in mainstream American culture. We have fewer and fewer studios and record labels and fewer and fewer platforms online that serve independent artists and creators.

When the monopoly right granted by copyright is compounded by the speed and scale of media company mergers, we end up with a crisis in creativity. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

In Day of the Tentacle (1993), you can play the full version of its predecessor, Maniac Mansion. It is one of the earliest games to feature a complete game within another.

This reminds me of an old Dijkstra quote: "The question of whether a computer can think is no more interesting than the question of whether a submarine can swim."
