Crazy advancement in quantum computing, one step closer to making it available to average consumers. Still not sure exactly what quantum means, but I think this is good news?

Very cool story about a very cool game... that happens to be 30% off today 👀
The entirety of #Crownfell 's existence was triggered by a throwaway joke...
With just 8 hours left in the crowd sale, here's the story of how it got started, and where it went from there. 🎲✂️

A wealth tax on the richest 0.5% of Canadians would add $30 billion in gains per year, supporting tax CUTS for middle and low income workers, AND funding important public services.
So... let's do that maybe?

Just saw #TheLongWalk.
Incredible, until the very disappointing end. Great writing and acting though, and relevant to today’s nationalism, and glorification of war and violence.

A ★★★★ review of The Long Walk (2025)
“I keep hoping that part gets easier…” “That’s what I’m afraid of.” Amazing film… until the very disappointing end.

If you want to push back against tech's encroachment into every corner of our lives, you have to read books. They're eager to create a future in which most people are illiterate and hooked on slop, a world without imagination or knowledge. Reading is resistance.
