- Comment on The Sims Competitor inZOI Sells 1 Million in a Week, Krafton Declares It a ‘Long-Term Franchise IP’ 1 week ago:
Not to mention it would be a buggy mess, geared towards on-line only content and predatory gacha mechanics. Remember that abortion that was the last SimCity ? It pretty much gave Cities: Skylines a permission to print money.
- Comment on IEEE Recognizes Itaipu Dam’s Engineering Achievements 2 weeks ago:
The project had a massive ecological and social impact on the region. People who lost their homes and farms to the lake, were still not re-settled or compensated almost 20 years after it was formed, displacement of native peoples from their ancesttal lands, it drowned old growth forests which caused them to rot and release CO2 and methane, disrupted the reproductive cycle of several species of fish, towns that were far from the river and then were close to the expanded lake were inundated by mosquitos, I could go on.
But hey, progress right ?
Fucking dictatorship.
Itaipu was completelly unneccessary, A chain of smaller dams would have provided the same capacity, but with lower and more distributed impact, but the fucking dictators had to show how Brazil was capable of tackling huge engineering projects.

That’s the true cost of decades of protectionist demagoguery disguised as “national security”.
- Comment on Reddit will lock some content behind a paywall this year, CEO says 1 month ago:
I see more and more people moving to Bluesky, which means Xitter is becoming less and less relevant by the day. Except for nazi shitheads, that is.
- Comment on China to launch antitrust probe into Google 2 months ago:
It’s a political move. By harassing one of USs largest corporations, the CCP hopes Sundar Pichai will call the morons in charge to complain and ask for concessions.
