  I haven’t played a porn game since I was a teen in highschool. 20-odd years ago. Now I own a whole mess of the things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GOG’s Freedom To Buy Campaign Gives Away Controversial Games For Free To Protest Censorship⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That is how their efforts usually work out.

  They are quite adept at shitting and falling back in it.

  The miracle slop machine miraculously produces garbage.

  Shocker.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Collective Shout Purge Sees Horror Games In Crosshairs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Hope so.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Warner Bros. Games is working on another live-service game, despite Suicide Squad flop⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The statistical possibility of hypothetical profit is worth hemorrhaging millions of dollars and ruining thousands of lives.

  Because “capitalism is the most efficient economic model” or some shit.

  I will not be participating. I’ll get around any barriers they put in place.

  Cool and good.

  Definitely. Always is. And I do mean always.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everybody gets one [choose wisely]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds like heaven.

  And I’d survive just fine. I was raised in a similar situation. Third world poor in the US. I can raise a garden. I can hunt and forage. I can make a bow and arrows. I can tan hides for leather. I know the basics of blacksmithing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everybody gets one [choose wisely]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  5 acres of woodland in the Appalachian Mountains. With a small house on it. Could be 1 room like an old style cabin.

  I wanna leave all the bullshit behind. Raise a garden and maybe a few goats and chickens.

  My condolences.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does anyone else find it suspicious that there wasn't any criticism on here about Stop Killing Games until after it hit 1.4M signatures?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The bot farms and clout grasping social climbers don’t care about things until they reqch a certain size.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta says it won't sign Europe AI agreement, calling it an overreach that will stunt growth⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Or the EU should force them out.

  We need more governments putting megacorps in their place instead of meekly bowing down to them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Star Wars Outlaws flop - Guillemot blames waning interest in the franchise⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s part of ot for sure. It’s grimdark. Read: boring.

  Forever locked in a Jedi vs Sith binary. And it is the highest of heresy to dare imagine anything beyond it.

  me hopes that gets ingested by ai

  This is literally a plot point in Cyberpunk.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People Are Being Involuntarily Committed, Jailed After Spiraling Into "ChatGPT Psychosis"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll do it for you. Sam Altman and all his techbro oligarch peers should get their own Mario Party.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why did AT&T think "Eye of Sauron" was the way to go?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s actually the most Ma Bell shit they could have done.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Japan using generative AI less than other countries⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That show was so fuckin stupid. But also weirdly wholesome. Nary a jot of creep shit for the whole run. I was genuinely surprised.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How come nobody does anything about North Korea?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We see and hear what the US state dept wants us to hear. And nothing more.

  As to the core of your question. The answer is nukes. Nukes are the only way to fend off the imperial aggression of the United States and its imperialist partners.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reality vs Fantasy⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well. They’re right. There is no reason to be there other than money. All the passion for logistics or predatory bullshit or whatever is concentrated in the c-suite. All us wage slaves are just that. Slaves. We are there under duress. We live in a constant state of extortion. We’re forced to whore ourselves so we can pay various rents, taxes, and for sustenance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Japan using generative AI less than other countries⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a creative country. They don’t need a slopbot to make substandard garbage for them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feds in Catalonia, Spain think everyone using a Google Pixel must be a drug dealer⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Solid cop logic. Of the exact level you’d expect.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I am just as powerless to stop any of this as you are. You go be poppy and exuberant for the both of us. Good luck to you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m tired. I would prefer immediate collapse to slow decline. It is going down. Sooner or later. Damage done. Which is not something I lament in itself. This is an evil country that has done incalculable harm to the world. The passing of the US wont be mourned by anyone who’s opinion is worthy of respect.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Spades are broken. Die is cast. Etc.

  This country might limp along for a few decades. But the USA as we knew it is dead. Do you really think Chump is the only fascist with aspirations that big? Do you think the Heritage Foundation goes away when the One Big Beautiful Obituary finally drops? Do you think they won’t try again? Do you think MAGA won’t enthusiastically leap at the next swaggering fascist?

  Our institutions are not built to withstand such direct assault. The intentional dismantling we’ve been seeing. The regulatory, legislative, legal, and economic capture that has occurred. If it isn’t a strongman it’ll be some businessman who isn’t a failure. One with big Corp backing.

  The sheer momentum of the dollar and power of US financialization will keep things going. The branding will remain. But little if anything will stop our continuing decline. Saying nothing of the damage done internationally. Geopolitically. The US can never be trusted on anything ever again longer than a 4 year timetable because at any time we could elect another used car salesman or failed gameshow host who wants to be a dictator.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I want Ford Escorts, Geo Metros, VW Rabbits. I want a small, uncomplicated, economy shitbox. A small cheap car that my broke ass can fix when it breaks. And no car company that makes cars in this country makes that anymore.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Exclusive: Evidence of cell phone surveillance detected at anti-ICE protest⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Please dont take.your fucking phone to a protest. Buy a burner if you must.

  You will be tracked. And spied on. And facial recognitioned. Etc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Domestic US cars can’t compete with foreign cars. We’ve known that forever. Or at least since the 90s.

  Look no further than Kei trucks being illegal.

  Our overengineered, over priced, unnecessarily complicated crap just can’t compete with simple transport vehicles because they aren’t made as a tool to serve a purpose. Everyone wants to make a Corolla into a Cadillac and sell it for Cadillac prices.
