  PirateSoftware (Thor) is a streamer and a game developer who is a narcissistic asshole. He’s been very against the SKG petition since I think the start since if it passed he would be forced to keep supporting his games once they fail (it’s happened before) and made a video trying to torpedo the petition some months ago by spreading disinformation that’s easily disproven with a halfway decent level of reading comprehension. Recently the guy who runs the SKG petition announced that Piratesoftware was successful, which caused a lot of big streamers and Youtubers to catch on and call PirateSofware out while endorsing SKG, including MoistCritikal. Since then the number of signings have skyrocketed.

  There must be some way to remove the “smart” controller from a device and replace it with a dumb one, like an arduino or something. I want to lobotomize these devices.

  I think Eurovision Song Contest should have like a sister competition called the Eurovision Film Contest, where each country produces one film and enters it into the contest for people to vote on.

  We need to convince right-wing idiots that the left wing is in fact the right wing and the other way around. They don’t care/understand what each wing stands for, just which side it is.

  I’m assuming they stuck a camera to an LLM?

  Tech companies are treating LLMs like how people back in the day would put asbestos or mercury in everything. “It’s good at this one thing, it’s gotta work for other stuff too.”

  The only way you can use “female” in that way is ironically and rhyming with “tamale”

  Really hope Charlie’s video on the subject helps mend things.

  He’s a dev himself. He won’t be able to abandon his next game after it flops if this goes through. That’s why he’s spreading disinformation. I can only hope MoistCritikal’s video on it helps.

  Also, SKG should seek legal action for defamation.

  If you have to go to the US as part of a business trip for work, just resign. It’s safer.

  No, the Americans need to be consistently reminded of what their government is doing so that there’s at least the slightest chance they’ll put a stop to it. They don’t get to ignore the problem, it’s their job to fix it. They are not babies to be coddled.

  Maybe we can gaslight him into thinking he’s the only one fit to pilot the Starship, making him insist on being aboard it for future tests.

  Starfield. It’s the definition of a “mixed” rating on Steam. It’s not bad, but it’s not good either. You play it for an hour and your reward is that an hour has passed.

  Most modern devices track the phone even when it’s turned off. If you can’t remove the battery, leave it at home.

  Here is the simple trick: leave your phone at home. Get a burner.
