A 50-ish Lieutenant Colonel in Japan's Self-Defense Force caught a 1-month salary cut for reading light novels on the job. He got hooked on a title rec'd by colleagues & spent 1-2 hrs/day at work reading. He says he's "deeply remorseful."
No word on whether he finished the book.

The author of the novels that inspired Shin Megami Tensei and Persona says developers should take more inspiration from other media to invent new gameplay systems.
If they only take inspiration from games they'll just make the same games, he says.

I am so shocked that Google pushing AI overviews which steal from websites without compensation is reducing the amount of people going to the websites they steal from.
Their AI push is so backwards and makes no sense. It’s an endless spiral to doom. Sites will die and so info won’t be updated.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Tokyo Godfathers is one of the best films of this century. A key reason is that it portrays Tokyo with an almost overwhelming level of care and detail.

all the fake AI trash really contradicts one of the main ways we're told capitalism operates, with capitalists identifying wants/needs & developing products & services to meet those. turns out you can skip that step & just pretend. nigh everyone hates AI and it makes no money but it's everywhere
