We need to be way angrier than we are. I'm all for adopting the framing from the End Times Fascism book, namely that these people - the techbros - are traitors to the human race.

love to use an open-source solution for six years until the developer succumbs to burnout or supports fascism, then migrate to paid software for six years until the developer is bought out and supports fascism, and then migrate to an open-source solution for six years until,

it turns out, we never needed computers. ❤️

Just got so angry at my apparent inability to disable yet another new round of AI horseshit being added to a piece of software that I slammed my laptop shut and went outside. Ideal outcome, honestly.

love the NYU, and i hope some day 10+ years hence to return to the American Republic, but quite apart from that "What do you contribute to gaming? What price do you pay for failure?" from the guy who created Thief and Deus Ex goes real fucking hard. anyway, unionize.

this is the fucking problem with all the "AI is useful" shit, it's like... it's all, constantly, always, me me me me me. not one second spent thinking about the degradation of literally everything about life and society, just my convenience trumps all.

Not only is Mark Carney subsidizing pipelines but he's actively fighting against ones for EVs and solar panels right as climate change is spiraling out of control. Genuine comic book super villain shit

if you think you're personally in too sweet a position to need a union, that they're just for other people, what do you think the best way to support those folks is? that's right: join a union

steam should allow me to filter out... ❌ gen ai ❌ BDS targets ❌ sex pests ❌ maga weirdos ❌ libertarians ❌ crafting games (they make me anxious) ❌ cops ❌ union busters ❌ private equity i'm sure the remaining five visual novels would be sick as shit

Having long been aware of those tech bros who read my work as utopian porn, where they’ve taken that doesn’t exactly surprise me.
