A cool practice when buying video games is to take what you would spend on one AAA game and instead buy like 6 much better indie games for the same price. The cops can't do shit.

& re Facebook, I'll sometimes post one thing that hits the algorithm & someone will pop in & say something like "I remember you. Why don't you write books any more?"
I've written eight books since 2017.
What kind of chance do we stand when robots are spreading lies about who we are and what we do?

The way Instagram's algorithm is now, there's about as much point in someone like me having 35,000 followers there as there would be in selling 35,000 tickets for a rock concert in New York then sitting on a Welsh mountain, playing six songs, unaccompanied, on an old banjo with two strings missing.

headscratchers: wikipedia is insanely valuable but does not charge a subscription to use it. tvtropes, which has demonstrably affected media literacy and overuse makes you view things by a list of tropes rather than as it is, does.
TV Tropes is blocking access to the site not only if you have ad blockers on but location tracking off unless you want to subscribe to their $5 a month/$25 a year subscription plan. Even people who have turned their ad blockers off are reporting the site isn’t working. This all seems like a bad idea

I've been saying it for years, and I continue to be proven correct about it;
Advertising destroyed the internet.

I've always hated posts like these because when you look at the series financials, you realize that later in that same match, The Undertaker chokeslammed Mankind through the cage roof and back into the ring in a largely unplanned spot
Pokemon is the number 1 best selling IP on the planet so its inexcusable that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table

Wikipedia is worth $10/month because if it dies so does reliable knowledge. Cough up if you can -- it's cheaper, more interesting and morally superior to Netflix.
wikipedia's data shows that AI is siphoning traffic away from the site, which is a danger to its sustainability. ironically Wikipedia is more important than ever to users who want reliable information instead of slop, and to AI companies that need it for training data www.404media.co/wikipedia-sa...
Wikipedia Says AI Is Causing a Dangerous Decline in Human Visitors
“With fewer visits to Wikipedia, fewer volunteers may grow and enrich the content, and fewer individual donors may support this work.”

i wouldnt say that its their fault, more like the organizers, i mean, who’s genius idea was it to book Yves as an opener for SHM? theyre polar opposite styles.
