Everyone sane “this VR tech seems pretty sweet! You can go anywhere, hang out in shared spaces with friends, explore horror or fantasy, the possibilities are endless!”
People with money: “imagine this: a photorealistic reproduction of an open-plan office”
Why does VR gotta catch a stray 😭 it legit has so much potential if they werent all owned by companies who dont actually care to put in the needed money and support

Some years ago I worked with population estimate experts around the world to calculate the generation gap. Surprisingly, it came to 24.9. I use 25 years for a generation because, well, it makes things a lot easier. It matters not, this artwork is fine and appreciated as it is. And the thread is ace.
This is an illustration from our book The Cell, written by the brilliant Ben Martynoga. We had to fight a bit to keep this drawing, because it was felt it didn't represent a broad range of women. It does raise interesting points.

I created it by assuming a generation would be 30 years.

"Inevitable" is a marketing term, not a certainty.
just a collection of "inevitable" multi-billion dollar tech that was going to be the future of everything until everyone in the audience who was supposed to just get on board said "lol no"

Man answering his phone on the train: Yes? Correct, I’m not at work (pause) I’m not going to answer that because I am not at work today. No, you’re going to have to ask someone who is. Goodbye.

unfortunately, open source was founded as a reaction by capital against the rights of authors and users and in favour of capital's access to free labour, which ultimately leads to people removing their own work from package repos being treated as a "security problem"

speaking of reminders: I think open source authors should have the absolute right to withdraw their work and personal information from circulation, and no argument about "supply chain security" overrides this bsky.app/profile/stev...

"placeholder text" "concept art" either the temporary thing you put in matters to the process, in which case you need to get a human to work on it, or it doesn't, in which case you can just as easily put a bright pink rectangle that says PLACEHOLDER in and save everyone time and effort

old twitter was like a place in interwar berlin, paris, or shanghai people have romantic memories about in spite of witnessing knife fights between prostitutes daily and heroin junkies overdosing
My pleases-nobody sense of Return To Twitter Discourse is that the place can never return to what it was, and can never return to the idealized past version we imagine either, nor can that idealized past version be constructed anywhere else because it was always romantic self-regarding bullshit

The games industry brings in 300 billion dollars a year. The guy who made DOOM gets his projects canceled, the guy who made Katamari Damacy is broke, everyone in your feed is begging for a job and there are 50 new games coming out on Steam every day all going towards buying Gabe Newell's next yacht
Keita Takahashi (Katamari, Wattam, Noby Noby Boy) has moved back to Japan, and says he may be forced to quit the games industry due to To a T underperforming.

He also says he'd love to work on Katamari again, and for someone to invest in his studio.

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

Please spend more time clicking on (and sharing!) links to personal sites, your friend's Bandcamp, that specialist news site, and that forum you used to read daily than posting about how you miss the old internet. The old internet's still here! You just stopped visiting!

The HK LegCo being ⅔ "functional constituencies", aka corporations are allowed to vote for their own legislators by industry is exactly how the British wanted it.

One Country, 2 Systems ossifies this contradiction with the pro-Beijing camp getting support of these "functional constituencies".

The really frustrating thing about this interaction is, if this happened with a human, they would be embarrassed and remember this, and if they did this again in the near future, you would know they were being malicious. With an LLM, these moments are lost in time, like tears in rain.
Coming along swimmingly:

I used to run an entire network of blogs. The server cost $600/month and the ads on my posts alone paid about $300/month. Eventually the ad revenue dropped while I got constant legal threats from quacks & copyright vultures. Now I run 1 blog with only my own posts for an archive when Patreon dies.
It’s so cool that every website is just Like This now. We used to send guys to the chair for putting pop-up ads on their sites. Now if I want to read something I have to read single lines between autoplaying video ads that use so much RAM they force the browser to reload every 5 seconds.

I want this to be on record. There’s no such thing as fake tits. You either have naturals or bolt ons. They’re all real to me. Fake tits are in your imagination and you’re probably an anime nerd touch a natural or bolt on tittie brother. If you can put it in your mouth it’s real.

I'm just gonna mention here that, to pedestrians, pointing out that cops routinely let drivers get away with ignoring the law is not making the point that I think you probably think it's making.
