re: roblox dude's interview crashout. the thing he wants to say but can't is "at scale, kids are gonna get hurt. that is the price for scale." the thing nobody wants to say out loud is "maybe scaling to a level where harm isn't manageable is bad, and scale should be contained"

An odd thing is, with the way the industry is currently moving, it makes more sense for me to buy everything I want to get on PC right now, because it's almost more likely for future consoles to support Steam than it is for future consoles to support their past and current iterations.

Behind this important reversal is a member of the Coast Guard who saw what was happening and had the courage to leak it to the press. That person deserves serious praise.

while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.

Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
—Harry Truman, 1952

Gentle reminder that Mount Rushmore was a sacred place to the Lakota and the United States promised they would have it (and the entire Black Hills) in perpetuity as part of a legally binding treaty and then reneged as soon as gold was found,

[2/3] You know how annoyed you get when someone confidently asserts that [thing in your favourite media A] is a reference to [thing in your other favourite media B], but you know that can't possibly be true because A was published before B?

This interview is a snapshot into where tech companies are with online harassment right now.
They know how to end it, but they decided not to spend the money. They’re prioritizing growth (and profit) above all else. And they’re blaming YOU for logging on to the platform they designed to be unsafe.
