I got plenty of feedback on my last video and I want to be clear: I hear you, I am listening.
Many of you felt that the audio didn't match the tone of the Expanse.
After much consideration, I've updated the audio.
I think we can all agree it's much more in keeping with the themes of the show.

AI is the most important technology in human history, and to make it we need to ensure no one can ever own an electronic device ever again
Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead. It’s already getting hard to build an affordable PC, and the exit of the longstanding provider of consumer memory is going to make that even more challenging www.theverge.com/news/837594/...

This is the best singular paragraph I've ever written, I think.
I'm having that thing where something provocative just seems like common sense cause I've been thinking about it for months and years, but man this book rocks.

As a pornographer myself, I feel... weird about creators who make distinctions between porn and other adult/sexual content. If you defend porn, your work will ALSO be defended. Don't be afraid to get down in the mud with us. You're gonna end up here anyway.
there is plenty of sexual content on steam. the problem isn't that valve is denying sexual content (though, as a near-monopoly, that would also be a problem) it's that valve is denying specifically sexual content that is non-pornographic, most notably in the horror genre.
It's pretty clear everyone would rather strawman me than have an actual conversation.
The content in Horses is sexual and well within Valve's right to say it violates their sexual content policies.
Horses has every right to exist. Valve has every right not to distribute it.

I'll always remember Tarantino going on this racist rant against Chow Yun Fat back when The Replacement Killers came out, about how "he needs to learn some ****ing English!"
He's always been one to only pull his head out of his ass long enough to spew effluence at people more talented than him.

Quentin Tarantino says 'There Will Be Blood' had a chance to be his greatest film of the 21st century if it didnt have Paul Dano in it
"it’s supposed to be a two-hander, but ... [Dano] is weak sauce, man ... He’s just such a weak, weak, uninteresting guy. The weakest fucking actor in SAG [laughs]"

I logged into my Fakku account and can confirm the tags “incest,” “tentacles,” “milf,” “loli,” “shota,” and “forced” lead to the following page. The notice regarding payment processing is obviously worrying. I reached out to Jacob to see if he can give any insight. More updates in this thread

The irony of Fakku getting burned by the pay pros is there's a site that started life as a piracy site and then went completely legit.
Now it's being nuked from orbit by the pay pros despite operating entirely legally (to my knowledge).

Can’t believe I’m actually seeing people on this platform (including self-described “freelance game writers”) defending the ban on Horses and calling it “the pedo game”.
If you’re that incurious and hostile to art, you shouldn’t be writing about anything.

Existing disability services are deeply underfunded, aggressively audited, means-tested constantly, and can be labyrinthine to even access or maintain without assistance. As someone who spent two decades as a cog in that system, concerns about fraud are overblown compared to the real existing need.
Balancing "no person with a disability should be denied accommodations" with "it's important to discourage non-disabled people from pretending to be disabled to take advantage of these accommodations" is really difficult and I don't have a great answer for what anyone should do about it.

I’m not an expert on the others, but it’s endlessly funny to me that the Falkland war, no matter what you feel about the territorial claims, has one extremely good outcome from a leftist perspective: it majorly humiliated and weakened the junta, leading to their overthrow by the people of Argentina
Once again tapping my "it really melts people's brains to consider that, despite generally being absolutely heinous, in the three major territorial disputes in the Americas that can be traced back to the British Empire, the UK is in fact on the morally right side" sign
every time Argentineans post their little crybully rants about the Falklands it's a reminder of the mentality that resulted in their incompetent fascist junta getting hundreds of their own conscript soldiers killed in an unprovoked invasion.

Punishment falls not ever on the deserving, but always on those who have not the power to escape it, and who are inconvenient or annoying to those with the power to deal it out. "Horses" criticizes authority and its abuses, making it a convenient target.
