Jury nullification is still a thing. If someone smashed up some waymo property, find them not guilty.

I really would prefer our laws had teeth and the leadership of Airbnb and uber had had their lives ruined.

Windows is pretty bad and their management are soulless husks.

They could rip out all the AI garbage and I wouldn't trust that they learned anything. Fuck 'em.

Linux is free and meet all my needs.

You'd think more libertarian types would be more in favor of walkable cities, biking, and such.

Break up Google, Facebook, and the other big platforms that let disinformation run rampant.

Hold decision makers at those organizations personally accountable.

Half your age plus 7 is an okay rule for finding the floor. Don't aim for the floor. Plus 10 is less eyebrow raising.

If I'm not playing something fun in a few minutes, I'm probably going to bounce off. I'm not here to watch a movie.

I don't want to watch a long intro. I don't want a lot of cut scenes and exposition up front.

The dark souls games have a little cut scene that you can skip, and then you're off to playing. Perfect.

I would be surprised if there were a lot of indie games that didn't run via proton or wine on Linux.

People make money on it. People don't care enough to organize around stopping it.

This is the only penny arcade comic I remember, but I liked it.

I tried to use it as a clue and prop in a tabletop RPG once, and one of the players unironically said "I'm not reading all of that". She was not a great player.
