Oh look, another day full of the consequences of a finance/tech company thinking video games would be easy money, have no idea how to make video games, blame their developers for predictable failures, and give up on it and shatter many people's lives.

There are a lot of Onion/Clickhole articles that have become meme-ified to the point that they serve as short-hand responses to posts - "Worst Guy You Know Makes Great Point," "No way to stop this says only place it happens," etc, but I feel like this is an underutilized one.

is anyone excited to drop what will almost assuredly be a grand on a new console between tariffs and inflation in order to play the ~1.2 AAAA games released annually by the two major studios left standing by 2027
Or are we just gonna keep swimming in a sea of amazing titles that run on toasters

The silence is deafening.
Is he permabanned or just banned for this year? Per the image (posted with Card Titan approval) it states that Joe will play Eternal Weekend 2026.

Were it not for pre-existing plans, I would be dropping everything to go to EW for how based @cardtitan.bsky.social was in banning Joe Brennan.
I will be making every effort to attend every EW Card Titan puts on moving forward, even though I don't own power or Bazaar.

A group of losers put together an open letter to @cardtitan.bsky.social criticizing their decision to ban Joe Brennan from Eternal Weekend this year.
If you, like me, support their decision, TELL THEM. Message them, email them, show them that you support their decision to make EW safer.

the game has metamorphosed into something significantly distant from the things that made me fall in love with it.
it has changed into something MUCH more successful, and wayyy more new people are finding the love I've lost, but I'm allowed to feel a type of way about it

Nah man a big part of why the UB stuff makes me sad is cause I know it's extremely popular so they're going to keep doing it despite it making the parts of the game I deeply care about worse. Like I know a bunch of people are going to buy the 6th marvel set but that doesn't make my FNM fire.
Hearing the conversations around the con, I think heavily enfranchised online folks significantly overestimate how much their opinions on Universes Beyond are shared by the wider player base.
This is not a value judgment of any opinion in particular: just being reminded of that myself, too.

This piece argues we’re in not one, but three AI bubbles:
1. a financial bubble with inflated valuations,
2. an infrastructure bubble with overbuilt data centers,
3. a hype bubble where AI can’t meet its promises.
Honestly, all three seem highly likely to me.

There isn’t an AI bubble—there are three
Here's how to capitalize on them.

This is the real canary in the coal mine.
If Pioneer is firing when the best case scenario is it matters in 6 months and Standard is not, you gotta fucking break cadence and fix shit immediately.

My shop over the past year of standard things basically dwindled to the point we all play pioneer now.
In a month we went from maybe Standard firing once a month with 4 to Pioneer firing for 5 weeks straight with 8-10.

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

DEFINITIVE PROOF THE “SPACE FORCE” ANNOUNCEMENT WAS PRE RECORDED!
If you look closely at the video, it features Donald Trump in the right side of the frame, and if you zoom in you can clearly tell that he is alive, which is impossible because he is dead.

I'm a Twin Cities of Minnesota native and I don't want to watch Jacob Frey right now.
I don't even think his mother wants to watch him right now. The entire country is waiting for Weekend at Donnie's.
