The PS2 truly is the best console ever because it is constantly becoming more powerful. Each time we say something "looks like a PS2 game" we're talking about a game of a higher fidelity than the last. What the PS2 is capable of in 2025 is so far beyond what it was capable of in 2003. That's amazing

imagine explaining a $1.3 million bill for medical care to somebody who lives in a country where people aren't required to do things like ration their insulin.

ACA being better than what we had before is a different statement than saying it is a good and durable health care policy regime

John Pfaff @johnpfaff.bsky.social · 16h

Are we doing "The ACA Sucks" Discourse again?

I'm going to guess most people hating on it from the left have never received a hospital bill the size of book; I put the apple there for scale.

That's the $1.3 million bill my kid incurred in his first ~94 days. Why does that make me respect the ACA?

A giant stack of papers, about 1/2 the size of an apple, on a counter.

The center of politics is not a fixed point, and anyone who acts as if it is is either delusional or seeking to delude others.

Still the greatest endorsement of all time

most people don't want politics that hurt other people. we just want a long overcoat like david bowie and affordable housing

they invented a technology that makes you worse at your job while convincing you you’re better at it. also your boss has to believe you’re better at it or else the entire economy explodes. they made the sophon from three body problem in real life

"But when the team looked at the employees’ actual work output, they found that the developers had completed tasks 20% slower when using AI than when working without it. Researchers were stunned. “No one expected that outcome. We didn’t even really consider a slowdown as a possibility.”

When you're in Gnisis, do me a favor. Don't talk to me. I don't like you, and it just ruins my day to have to have to put up with someone I don't like.

If "ending the war" was the only objective then BDS wouldn't have existed for decades. Israeli apartheid is still in full force. Gaza is in ruins. The IDF continues to shoot and bomb innocents.

We can't stop you from doing anything. But you are NOT entitled to 0 judgment when you look the other way

remyremy2.bsky.social @remyremy2.bsky.social · 2d

I donno this seems pretty unreasonable. Fine to make your own choices, but now that the objective of the boycotts, ending the war, has been achieved, others are entitled to go back to xbox, disney+ etc. without any judgment.

It worked! you should celebrate that instead of trying to keep it going

Fangamer @fangamer.com · 5d

Our new DELTARUNE launch features everything you might need to cook for yourself and your friends: A cute bento box, a high-definition Kiss the My Ass apron, and a pair of lounge shorts decorated with little angelic Spamtons.

Available now: www.fangamer.com/collections/...

A photo of a DELTARUNE bento box with a cute illustration of Ralsei dressed up as a chef on the lid. The lid is a light orange checkerboard pattern; the box itself is a very light turquoise that's reflected on Ralsei's glasses and frying pan.

A photo of a white apron with the phrase "Kiss the My Ass" on the front in basically the same typeface used in DELTARUNE.

A closeup photo of a pair of black lounge shorts. There's a heart pattern separated by clouds; an illustration of a cherubic Spamton with wings and a halo is lying or sitting on the clouds in various poses.
