The quality of games made by China these days is so high it's scary.
The transition from cutscene to ingame is too natural and too cool.

Looks like FB put me in the penalty box for 24 hours for saying something their shitty AI didn't approve of.

Scientists are studying the sleep habits of brainless creatures, upending previous assumptions that sleep exists primarily for the benefit of the brain, Elizabeth Pennisi reports for @ScienceMagazine.

> Still, can we be surprised that after years of being told they are the problem, that their manhood is the problem, more and more men are withdrawing into the enclave of idleness, and pornography, and video games.

Huh, I was just doing it because I'm lazy/chaotic/disobedient, horny, and like games. Destroying the fundamentalists' idea of what "masculine" is, is a completely incidental bonus.

@ajroach42 In retrospect, one of the most regrettable parts of the "PC revolution" is how much wheel-reinvention happened due to disconnects between large systems people and micro/PC people.

E.g. the high watermark of hardware-enforced security in operating systems is arguably still Multics…developed 1964-67. Just one example.

So much knowledge from the development of large multiuser systems was ignored or not known to PC developers, and we now live with the consequences.

It's frustrating when a 10 year old computer can't get on facebook or watch 480p on youtube anymore, even thought it could five years ago.

The computer hasn't changed.

Facebook and youtube have become more complicated. They didn't need to, but they could get more complicated because the average computer got faster, and the average internet connection got faster over that time span.

So a computer that could do X lost it's ability to do X as a result of a third party.

That's frustrating.

This seems to be rather spooky given yesterday was Halloween.

Embrace, Extend, Extinguish is the plan Microsoft's been rolling out for decades now. In modern times it is spreading to GNU/Linux and Open Source. It is the long game. They are NOT your friend, they never will be. They DO NOT Love Linux or Open-Source.

From a friend in NYPD:

This is the line at an NYPD station of officers lined up to go out sick tomorrow as that’s the deadline for the vaccination.
