For those saying they didn’t know about this, it’s because they never actually released anything. They got shut down unexpectedly before they finished any projects. Allegedly there are still some in-development games based on Netflix properties that will still be released on their gaming service, and the service itself will stay up. It’s just the studio itself that was shut down.

Not really AAA at all, no.

Man I hate these fucking headlines. The race is insanely close and news headlines like this aren’t helping that. It just helps reinforce Trump’s narrative that media outlets are irrationally out to smear him.

Smart TVs are designed to surveil you, a media center PC can be used however you want. Flash Linux and run Jellyfin and torrent everything through a VPN, then nothing can track you.

Yep, it was my personal, password-protected network. Either someone reconnected it (unlikely, I live with my gf who doesn’t use the TV) or it just cached the password until it decided to spy on my again 🙃

I have definitely had to forget networks, then have them connect to that network weeks later at random, then having to forget the network again. Don’t know how that’s legal.

Do not connect your Smart TVs to network people, seriously. Just a bad idea. Use a media center PC or some other device that allows you to stream content, and make sure the TV itself is just a big monitor, nothing more.

And when you point that out to the AI, those code snippets get replaced with even more spaghetti that is maybe 1% closer to actually working, at best. Been there!

Stochastic terrorism needs to have more severe criminal penalties for career politicians specifically. Right-wing figureheads have been getting away with this shit for too long.

We’re now penalizing the parents of school shooters, so if we find out that someone who threatens to bomb a school is a super fan of X person, then X person should face some sort of penalty if they continually put out deliberate lies about said school. We did a version of this with Alex Jones already, just follow through with that logic honestly.

Young people who didn’t consider voting before probably.

You are literally charged more for insurance for being a man in the US because men are, observably and on average, worse drivers than women.

Adding “the first ever” is really telling on yourself there

Kamala is much more likeable than Clinton. I really think that’s why she lost in 2016, not because of her politics but because no one liked her as a person.

That was actually a shooting star. My phone places emphasis on them.

Disinformation is a powerful tool, that’s all this is. He knows better.

I would agree that the proximal issue is how easy it is to illegally obtain guns, but I think the solution to that is just reduce the availability of guns for those who don’t need them, are on the fence about buying, won’t take the responsibility seriously, etc. I think the problem is how overly normalized gun ownership is, and how unseriously it’s taken. The solution just has to be more barriers to entry to ensure the people getting them are (on average) more serious about safety and responsibility. I also agree about the handguns thing.

Yes, effective gun control measures need to target the buying process for firearms more generally, instead of fixating on specific models.

Mission failed, we’ll get 'em next time

The answer to questions like these is always money.
