if nothing changes by next summer, this is the last chance for our community to push back. The big ask is not spending $2000 to go to Vegas to play video games once. I'm not expecting much but it at least feels possible because the requirement for protest is simply not doing jack shit

“As prices for streaming subscriptions continue to soar and finding movies to watch, new and old, is becoming harder as the number of streaming services continues to grow, people are turning to the unexpected last stronghold of physical media: the public library.”

Reminder for everyone looking for audiobooks right now (whether its bc you can't find a physical copy of the hockey romance or another reason, I'm not judging) Libro.fm is a GREAT audible alternative.
They have a similar credit system and you can even AVOID the monthly payment structure too.

Ask yourself if kids prefer toys, or stores. Games from a generation ago were allowed to be toys. Games today are forced to be stores.
Why do Gen Z have a growing appetite for retro tech?

People abusing stimulants is so wild from the perspective of an ADHDer. "I used Adderall to work for three nights without sleeping, lol." Cool I take Adderall so I don't cry when I have to re-tie my shoes.

WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 24-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 1.2 MILLION people in Denmark found NO LINK between aluminum in childhood vaccines and autism, asthma, OR chronic disorders.
Aluminum is an ADJUVANT.
It ENHANCES your immune response to a vaccine.
That’s it.

Sure, they've made an environmentally catastrophic mass hallucination disinformation plagiarism Clippy that will destabilize the world, but also their other goal is to replace human workers entirely and let us humans starve. A boycott of AI is the most important boycott of your entire life.
"All of this falls apart if humans don't adopt the tech. This is why you've seen Meta cram its lame chatbots into WhatsApp and Instagram. This is why Notepad and Paint now have useless Copilot buttons on Windows. This is why Google Gemini wants to "help you" read and reply to your emails."
Analysis: OpenAI is a loss-making machine, how can it survive?
Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

I'm getting into solo RPGs. My disability makes me take frequent breaks; scheduled group play's difficult.
But I couldn't find one which focused on what I like: rules-lite, locale-specific, modern setting, ongoing concerns rather than quests and looting. So, I'm making my own: "The City Unseen."
