I really admire Samus Aran, because sometimes I too deal with challenges by curling up into a ball.

The reason the Faewild is the Faewild is that it's a git repo where the owner just accepts every single pull request reflexively. The only thing which stops a Fae from getting accidentally poofed from existence is a contract with beings on another plane (it's a legacy dependency, can't delete).

Enshittification of @plex.tv has reached terminal velocity.

They now charge $250 to run remote-access media servers.

When I asked why their Android app no longer supported local network streaming, I was told it's no problem because I could still watch their ad-riddled videos.

We'd like to congratulate Nunavut on having the most RRD games per capita. They just received lots of 1pg games for their community centre! Specifically:

🔸3 copies x 6 volumes x 13 games in each = 234 games
🔸Pop. = 36,858 (across Qikiqtaaluk , Kivalliq, Kitikmeot)
🔸That's a game per 157 people!

The 21st Century is the Age of Babble.

A President who can't speak in complete sentences.

"AI" that spews out endless bafflegab that looks like coherent sentences, but lacks any meaningful thought.

Short videos force-fed to us by an algorithm like a goose being fattened for foie gras.
