This was a really cool endeavor and one we as a community should support in the hopes that more like it are made. The people and teams involved in these historic projects aren’t getting any younger.

They don’t care if it’s a valid email or not. All they want is a unique identifier.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 community manager says internal discussions are ongoing regarding mandatory PSN account link 1 month ago:
We must be playing two different games. I shoot some bugs, play some DDR, and hop on an airplane.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 community manager says internal discussions are ongoing regarding mandatory PSN account link 1 month ago:
This is a hot take. Playing on a hot planet against bots and defending a cold planet against bugs isn’t an engaging live story.

- Comment on Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving linked to hundreds of crashes, dozens of deaths 1 month ago:
The question for me is not what margins the feature is performing on, as they will likely be better than human error raters, but how they market the product irresponsiblely.

Loads of videos don’t have those either. I watched three to four car repair videos yesterday and none had sponsored segments.
Some of my followed creators have them, but they are the minority. I’d love to see some overall stats, as my experience may not be the norm.

- Comment on Steam is a ticking time bomb 2 months ago:
Why would a consumer value exclusivity on an open platform? Is this a tribalism thing? In vs. out group?

Is TechDirt any good? I know Leo has the guy on TwiT decent amount, but it seems like every headline is some sensationalized clickbait garbo.
