Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Paul McCartne, Elton John and others signed an open letter.

I'm so sorry this has happened to you and that much of your words and actions have been blown out of scope and used to spread harmful misinformation. When we met last year at Expo, you and I had a conversation I won't forget, and you were such a wonderful person to talk to. Please stay safe.❤️

I'm horrified by the shooting of Charlie Kirk at a college event in Utah.

Political violence has no place in our country.

transformed is still the best sonic kart racer

🎃May🎃 (MattNL) @mattnl.com · Aug 26

it's true

🎃May🎃 (MattNL) @mattnl.com · Aug 26

I do like the customization though. It's very cool.

🎃May🎃 (MattNL) @mattnl.com · Aug 26

I just finished playing about 2 hours of sonic racing crosspromotions and it's the most generic racing game I've played in a hot minute. It's fine. It's just fine. 5 or 6/10. The crossworld laps aren't very fun and the controls are oddly stiff for a sonic racer. Easily the weakest sonic racing game.

Hey everyone, I could really use your help! Apparently, YouTube now favors “engagement” over views when the algorithm decides whether or not to push a video, so this means that comments may be the most powerful element for a video, or a channel for that matter, to succeed on the platform. (cont)

I can't believe no one's talking about Tee's lol. I didn't even know it was him when I was skimming through and when I had to chance to fully listen later I was shocked. He can do this kind of genre, like Streets of Rage 4, so I dunno what happened here

🎃May🎃 (MattNL) @mattnl.com · Aug 15

Also the arranger being a prolific vocaloid composer checks out because no one else would be YM2612 instruments in an Apotos arrangement. Genre they picked to do is so illfitting too, for both the area and the "action" if you can call it that. One of the slowest looking racers I've ever seen
