…do they think people shouting 6-7 are of voting age? ….do they think this is still relevant NOW let alone in November? …do they think Gen-Z are literal children?
And they wonder why they are not taken seriously by their very own voters.

Kamala Harris’ former campaign account has rebranded to “headquarters_67” (on Twitter), it is now a Gen-Z led hub for progressive content.

I was going through organizing the games I've got recently and in the last ~3 months or so I've gotten more new games for the Atari 7800, Game Boy, and Genesis than I have for the Xbox and I think that says a lot about how wrong of a direction Microsoft has taken this generation.

I don't think I've ever seen mites on ice get heated. This is incredible. My kid would be in so much trouble after I was done laughing at the absurdity of it all.

The Trails in the Sky remake has been good right up until the point where about 75% of the boss fights has some random mechanic that will suddenly cause your party to be sent from 100-0 while you don't have a turn. It's a really odd balance causing you to force reset the fight after learning it.

So we're buying a bunch of oil that we don't really need or have refining capacity for.....for what reason exactly?
Trump: “I am pleased to announce that the Interim Authorities in Venezuela will be turning over between 30 and 50 MILLION Barrels of High Quality, Sanctioned Oil, to the United States of America. This Oil will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, as President”

This is as braindead a loss of public recognition as Twitter/Tweet. Absolutely baffling.
Microsoft is so fucking stupid.
Microsoft renamed Microsoft Office to Microsoft 365 Copilot App

I've been playing the Trails in the Sky 1st remake, and this totally should be my type of game but I kind of feel like granpda screaming at clouds that the game feels old. Everything is super tanky, bosses hit so much you have to use a lot of turns on heals, turn delay attacks are so common...

This is some horse shit.
NEW: For the last seven weeks, Naughty Dog has enacted mandatory overtime for staff to finish an internal demo of their next game, Intergalactic. The game won't be out until 2027, leaving some staff wondering: If they're crunching now, what will next year be like? www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Ran through Vitamin Connection over the past couple days as a kind of "I'm waiting forever for this build to cook" time waster, and boy did they just full send the soundtrack on that one. Small titles don't need to go so hard, but I'm glad they did.

But a for loop has a clear end condition. The story meta is clearly a while loop.

What the actual fuck
The EPA is starting to allow the use of pesticides containing PFAS on food.
The move is part of an effort to roll back the regulation of what are called "forever chemicals" because they don't break down easily in the environment.
