Trump might not be bright but he's canny.
It's a cute trick, to be sure: post a thing, immediately delete it, then wait on the media to report it for you.
He's trying to duck the gag order by playing "I'm not touching yoooooouuu"
Trump Posts — Then Deletes — Rant About Stormy Daniels Testifying
Donald Trump posted, then deleted, a rant about adult film star Stormy Daniels testifying in his criminal hush-money trial.

It's a nice notion but unless you're somebody like Concerned Ape who somehow does all that shit all by himself, indie profit margins are razor thin to non-existent.
And they certainly won't have the kind of blockbuster promotion budget they'd require, either.
Part of the tragedy of wave after wave of mass layoffs is thousands of those people are leaving game development for good. (And good for them if they find something that treats them better)
Years and years of institutional knowledge is winnowing to nothing.
I'm joking but this is actually a goddamn problem because it teaches viewers not to believe their YouTube subscription notifications so we lose out on views.
YouTube: Hey, guess what! Those people you're subscribed to put up new videos you haven't seen yet! Look at the little blue dots!
Also YouTube: Nah you actually watched those yesterday made you fucking look
As a prosecutor, my strategy in the courtroom would be to make Donald Trump so angry that he dies
The hell is going on
Drake’s Security Guard Shot Outside His Toronto Home, Rapper Uninjured
One man was hospitalized, but Drake was unharmed, in a shooting that took place near his Toronto home early Tuesday morning.

Here's the fucked up cherry on top:
Microsoft has effectively lost the console generation. Maybe the whole war.
But while they keep laying of people left and right at game studios their XBox division is allowed to just plug along like the sun is fucking shining ...
So if they violate the stipulations of the acquisition, shouldn't they lose the acquisition?
Fallout 76 was a launch disaster but Bethesda gave it *years* to reach a playable state.
Again, there's no sense to any of this shit. Line go up.
Redfall most likely did them in. One failure is enough in this late stage capitalist hell to get you in. Bethesda has a quality problem too, but not a sales problem, and quality is never the concern of CEOs as we know.
I wrote Starcraft instead of Starfield, that's how well the game has stayed relevant in my brain.
There is no good way to frame it, precisely because the cuts are senseless.
that's such a stupid way to frame this

www.bloomberg.comAlso it's an absolute joke that the studio that released Starcraft and that last Fallout 4 patch is more or less safe, but the one behind Hi Fi Rush gets punished.
The acquisition of Activision was dependant on not shutting down substudios or laying off a mass amount of workers (even though they already violated that).
So instead, they'll just wreck their old toy. www.theverge.com/24151047/xbo...

This was specifically designed not only to cover any war crimes America undertook in Afghanistan and Iraq, but also violating parts of the Geneva Conventions like torture.
Obama and Biden both chose to abide by it. It's currently being used to shield Netanyahu.
Wanted to mention that under Dubya we passed American Service-Members' Protection Act.
It's a law that states any attempt by the International Criminal Court to hold Americans or their allies to account for violating international law would be met with force.
The way Netanyahu has been able to lead Biden around by the nose while also trying to ruin his re-election chances would be a study in brilliant politics if the result wasn't a live streaming genocide.

It's not an immediate thing, but yeah, my thyroid's gotten considerably worse in the last year based on my bloodwork.
Going to talk to endo tomorrow and see what my options are.
Guess who's got two thumbs and a thyroid making a renewed attempt to kill him?

A quick summary:
The "Rabbit R1" only existed as an unnecessary (and crappy) standalone device because they're desperate to pay back investors and no one in their right mind would throw down $200 just for an Android app.
So they threw the app on a cheap generic standalone Android device and lied.
I really don't know which part galls me the most:
- Rabbit thought we were all stupid
- Everyone working at Rabbit appears to in fact be stupid
- The tech press at CES pissed themselves over the Rabbit R1
- The people behind Rabbit will just fail into another tech company within months
What's fucking hilarious are the denials from the Rabbit CEO and staff that their "Rabbit R1" is just an Android app running on a generic Android device.
Anyone who knows how this stuff works would have known the app could be cracked, easily.
No, you don't need a 'very bespoke AOSP' to turn your phone into a Rabbit R1 — here's proof
Rabbit recently said their AI service can only be accessed on the R1 with its “very bespoke AOSP” firmware, but that isn’t true.

Good morning.
I know there's a lot going on. Take breaks. Breathe. Hydrate. Try to take care of yourself whenever and however you can.
Have a good day.
From the company that landed the first ever Star Wars MMO which was also the first ever comprehensive sandbox MMO, and then completely fucked it because World of Warcraft made them wet themselves.
Man hold onto your butts, because Filoni has a film (or films plural, we don't know yet) that look like a bridge between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens, and then we allegedly get Rey's Jedi academy.
The continuity will continue until morale improves.
And yet I still can't give half a womp rat's ass about said attempts after watching. Bad Batch was already iffy at best but WHOOF
Star Wars needs to just fucking stop with the continuty. Stop interweaving everything and making the galaxy smaller. Someone give Filoni a spritz from the spray bottle.
Okay, but are they *button* buttons or more steer-by-wire shit.
I read one of the articles someone linked and apparently there are physical button redundancies in case things go wrong. It’s all been overseen and approved by NASA so hopefully they have prepared for every eventuality.
Remember Apollo 13, when every NASA engineer brainstormed every kind of mechanical fix they could devise using what was on the ship and ended up helping to save the crew's lives?
HOW THE FUCK YOU DO THAT WITH AN IPAD
I'm going through the final season of The Bad Batch, and it astonishes me that Rise of Skywalker was so bad that THREE entire seasons of Star Wars shows have effectively been dedicated to trying to fit that shit into canon.
It's like coating an 8 inch wide dildo in bacon grease and praying.
I bet you real money that Sony executives still don't understand why people are upset.
Imagine the cabin losing air pressure and astronauts trying desperately to push touch screen buttons with spacesuit fingers
If it's built with the same design philosophy as Tesla, then that thing is a deathtrap ...

Fall has come to Stardew Valley! Time to grow some BIG OL PUMPKINS!

Still going to have Stardew Valley stream today, just ... bleah! Stuff!
Why is there always stuff.
Okay we'll get started closer to 5pm ET, stay tuned.
So even if you live in a country that will still allow you to access the game, it doesn't matter because lopping off that many players means the game will die in short order so *nobody* will be able to play it.
Everybody's fucked yay!
Oh but it gets even worse!
Live service games like Helldivers 2 only function with a large and constant player base, which is now being winnowed down CONSIDERABLY.
That makes matchmaking harder, take longer, more people ragequit, then comes the death spiral ...
A lot of people are pissed just because it's an ask of the end user. Making a psn account is pretty painless, but there's a deeper issue. In over 190 countries, YOU CANNOT MAKE A PSN ACCOUNT AT ALL. Which means anyone who bought the game on steam will be locked out on may 20th
It's worse than that.
The Playstation Network is unavailable in 177 countries.
So the game's been delisted on Steam in *all of them.*
If you already owned it, screw you.
