white people don’t know what “woke” means because it’s AAVE and white people always coopt AAVE.

that’s how they are NOW, but pessimism doesn’t get anyone anywhere.

google and microsoft are creating a fault line in tech. one that was previously only drawn by Apple. now everyone will be forced to either assimilate or decentralize. which ironically is exactly what the internet needed, it’s grown entirely too privatized in the past decade or so. i sincerely hope this results in more people thinking critically about their tech. and that the next billionaire with an “idea” doesn’t just make everyone complacent again. but all i can do is hope.

Gamesir Cyclone 2. Best third party controller I’ve ever used and for only $50-$60. TMR joysticks, Hall Effect triggers that can be switched between hair trigger and full. Can connect wired, Bluetooth or 2.5ghz with a dongle. Can switch connection methods between Xinput, DSinput, Android, Switch. Not sponsored or affiliated in any way, I’m just very thankful that a controller like this exists for so relatively cheap after blowing through so many controllers in my life.

the people cheering this on like it’s actually a good thing are inept. the government doesn’t give a single fuck about children, let alone their parents not getting the money they deserve. this is to strip voting rights from even more people, that’s literally it.

more money being exchanged between the same hands

i cannot possibly justify kernel level anticheat. cheating in games is just not that serious, sorry. there are much smarter ways to tackle that and i certainly don’t have evidence for this by any means but i’ve always assumed that kernel level anticheat is just spyware being justified by saying it’s to stop cheating in multiplayer games. insane to me that people are willing to play games w it.

i feel like we’re at the point where this extends now beyond privacy and is just about not dilluting human beings into bytes of information to be bought and sold on the stock market like it’s just about basic human rights at this point

i’ve literally never considered decomps/recomps not being available to linux before now. feel pretty short sighted for that, that’s a crazy thing to think about. i tend to stay attached to media long after i’ve outgrown actually interacting with the source material and viva piñata is one of those cases. playing the games themselves tend to drive me insane, it’s just super frustrating for me w my ADHD. but gods do i love it. i love pretty much everything Rare did back then tho tbf lol.

that is certainly a way to interpret my comment

They said the same thing about Hitler, he still managed to genocide millions. But far be it from Western society to learn from the past, no we erase it and pretend it never happened.

LOL the downvotes, if you think you don’t have blood on your hands you’re lying to yourself.

meanwhile Palestinians are forced into begging online for the means of survival, the bare minimum, that they should already be getting and they’re being labeled scammers. we are all complicit in this.

the message here being the IDF is badass bc fuck god?
