Itagaki was an enigmatic rock star of game development. He'd have put himself on the game dev mount Rushmore of his era, and he wouldn't be wrong!

As public figures, it falls upon them to manage how much of their id makes it into permanent spaces. Maybe limit loving Hitler and hating melon monkeys to when they are enjoying punch and cookies and celebrating the brotherhood of the napkin in person?

Repeat After Me: Aquaphor Is Not a Moisturizer. Here, we explain what an occlusive really is, why you shouldnโ€™t swap one for your face moisturizer, and examples of some that we do and do not recommend.

If youโ€™ve scrolled skin-care TikTok lately, youโ€™ve probably seen people slathering Aquaphor on their faces before bed. But this will not work as a moisturizer. "If your skin is already parched, adding an occlusive on top is like sealing an empty Tupperware container."

Recording of People from the 1800s are MIND BLOWING

Look at the context of this video. It's charming! Then look up this woman. You will see that Rebecca Ann Latimer was a straight up MONSTER. A true villain of American history. This is what they will do with the villains of today if you let them.

I am sharing this everywhere, b/c it genuinely has me shook. The level of emotional manipulation encoded into this tool (Sesame AI) is irresponsible. This flies right past the basics of a turning test.

The real issue is that Antifa is an idea. There are genuinely destructive ideas that a functioning society allows in the interest of the greater good and higher discourse. Now, it is illegal to support the idea of 'checks notes' THE GREATER GOOD AND HIGHER DISCOURSE.

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

When a Simple Swim Carries a Risk of Dangerous Illness

Thought to affect 200 million people globally, schistosomiasis is considered one of the most important parasitic infections worldwide, second only to malaria. Yet it attracts nowhere near the funding or the attention that killers like malaria do.

Just take a moment. The whole thing is a scam. They are terrible at governing. Terrible. And all the noise is to distract from their fundamental incompetence in governance.

Smartphone media still talks about long-term performance degradation on premium phones, but 2021/2022 was when the 5 years of support Android phones launched. I know S22 series users, and Pixel 6 series users with no performance complaints. It's time to let go of old tropes. Promote buying well once

The IOS 26 camera icon is gross. It is a big, malignant mole in my peripheral vision. I turned off a lot of glass in accessibility b/c 26 was near broken on my iPhone 12 directly after update. It seems to be fine now. RCS profile 3.0 was NOT applied with the update ๐Ÿ˜’. No interop E2EE yet.

I don't care that it was yet another young, brainwashed white male. Assassination is repugnant regardless. The thing that rubs me wrong is how the disenfranchised have to be on pins and needles b/c middle America is rabid for the one time that it isn't their own internal cultural issue.

Sorry am I losing my fucking mind??

@bbc5live.bsky.social currently reporting Charlie Kirk as a โ€œfree speech advocate who helped a generation of students with their debating skillsโ€???

He was a racist conspiracy theorist who advocated violence against women and transgender people. He was a bum.
