Learned that an anonymous outside expert on submersibles did an interview with the OceanGate Titan investigation, and they released a transcript, with all the names redacted. The first line of his first answer? "I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic."

A.
Well, I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic.
When I

Please stop using Kirk Van Houten as an example of a Cybertruck owner. He deserves better than that.

(no I will not check to see if he actually bought one in season 31 or whatever)

With Microsoft announcing their AI plans for future Windows versions, this /v/ comic from 15 years ago got a whole lot more relevant.

These are the same types who would say that people love office buildings when we prevent them from working from home, so it’s consistent delusion at least.

RIP to Itagaki, whose poisonous (but totally kayfabe) vendetta against Tekken was a relentlessly entertaining thread out of the early 2000s Japan dev news scene. You knew you were in for a treat if you got an interview with him.
