Congress Is Considering Abolishing Your Right to Be Anonymous Online The bipartisan push to remove anonymity from the internet is ushering in an era of unprecedented mass surveillance and censorship.

Trans ppl under attack from the govt could be identified and outed w/o their consent.

Undocumented immigrants would be cut off from the ability to communicate w advocates.

Young ppl seeking abortions won't be able to access info safely and anonymously.

This is what congress is advancing today ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป

If I were head of Xbox I'd hire Matthew McConaughey to do an ad where he says "x...box...." in that weird southern way he speaks sometimes because it sounds cool and then I'd get fired

Better Graphics aren't really a unique selling point when you need an ecosystem of YouTube channels to explain why it looks better

Generally a good guide despite using dehumanizing language re homeless San Franciscans and claiming a few areas are dangerous that probably aren't, like around Powell Station.

Attendance is definitely the worst it's ever been. We should chat more on this at GDC if you're going this year

I know other teachers are having different experiences but it does seem like my students are getting a lot sharper and more alive and present the more years we are from the worst parts of the pandemic. It's encouraging!

I have seen multiple cars on Broadway in Seattle (similar bike lane I suppose if this isn't the same one) drive straddling the concrete barrier with a 4ft high rooster tail of sparks behind them as they drag their car a full block down the concrete

This looks like a tactical version of those staple guns people use to put posters on light poles

I am cautiously returning to posting but I will be regularly deleting my posts and un-RTing things after a few hours.

It's a tendency that is accelerating and metastasizing across indie and AAA

Yes, that's what I mean. The latest game is a basically frictionless playground where you control everything.

Even those games, like farming sims, are primarily about rationalization of your environment and control over everything around you. That's what I see as the primary libidinal force behind "cozy".

The real skill is being able to sniff out if the Tool will cost 10 hours to learn vs 10 hours to make it myself, or if it's actually worth it

The "Meta" of next fest and seemingly valves intent is that it reliably amplifies the amount of visibility you go into it with, many get 10-20% more wishlists than they had before. It definitely does not solve any fundamental visibility problems

if we are following marx, unions can be/are a stepping stone towards revolution, therefore are praxis, and co-ops are not. Modern marxist thinkers have frequently argued that co-ops can serve that role, but they generally do not due to needing to compete in the market.
