Fourteen Thousand.

The long campaign to dehumanize Palestinians is, fundamentally, about this. To provide cover for the annihilation of a people and their culture, from the youngest to the oldest, to shrugs from the most powerful nations in the world.

3 months ago, I wrote this about centrist parties aping the far right, and how it's not just immoral, but suicidal. This is not secret knowledge. It's the most reliable effect in world politics. It's watching 40 guys getting killed by the same gorilla, one by one, and stepping up to take your turn.

I will entirely skipping @eurovision.tv again for its unacceptable shameless political choice to platform a violent, terrorist, genocidal Israel.

You should too, even if Eurovision is "fun" or "massive for engagement" - the EBU is choosing to ignore genocide. Don't be like or support the EBU.

GenAI has basically wrecked lofi easy listening autoplay Youtube, so I’ve been building out this writing playlist that is mostly composed of game soundtracks. The difference is palpable. Turns out listening to flat loops can make you feel flat!

I’m on a list of cures for centrist dads 😂
Thanks to Finian Murphy for writing this piece in today's Irish Examiner calling on men - especially 'centrist Dads' - to take on the manosphere. Look at all the positive role models out there for our boys.

Centrist dads must get out of comfort zone to combat manosphere
Men must engage with issues like pornography, the imbalance in childcare, the gender pay gap, men’s mental health, and gender-based violence

Love this. In his “I Agree” installation Dima Yarovinsky-Yahel took the content from terms of service statements for companies like Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, Tinder and printed them out on A4 paper with a standard font size for legal contracts to demonstrate the length of these agreements.

The UK's political and media class has spent years heaping sadism on trans people, and they want to do the same in Ireland next. Calls for civility and calm won't cut it. We need to fight them tooth and nail.

Generative AI is melting our only planet.

Don’t use it.

ChatGPT wastes 10x the amount of water as Google.

And last year, Google was in talks to purchase 8 nuclear reactors in order to power their own AI.

This is not sustainable.

Stop using it today. It’s literal Earth Day.

with the switch 2 price increases i've seen multiple posts lately going "why should i pay $70-$80 for a AAA game when i can buy five indie games for that price" and like. i appreciate the sentiment, but you realize that those indie games realistically should cost more but are undercharging, right

There are plenty of scenarios in which spending time and money on features and options is the appropriate solution to barriers.

But don't let yourself end up in a situation where you have spend money on them solely to compensate for unnecessarily exclusionary design choices.

I've whipped up a pair of Starter Packs for anyone interested in the Irish Game Development Scene. I created these to help promote accounts here and help peers in the industry find each other, and also to stop pestering @doomcube.bsky.social about updating his list everytime I find a new account. 😅
