The AI boom is driving memory and storage shortages that may last a decade; OpenAI's Stargate has deals for 900K DRAM wafers per month, or ~40% of global output (Luke James/Tom's Hardware)

Oh come ON! “When you think about it being anti-ai is basically racism” jesus christ listen to yourself

hailey @hailey.at · 4d

an unfortunate irony about this post - and even if you are the staunchest anti-ai critic out there, i think you’d agree - is that some of the most bigoted things are being said to respond to this. copy/pasting phrasing and terminology used by bigots but replacing “dna” with “bits” doesn’t make it ok

i’m completely serious when i say that much of the dismissive ai discourse on here fires the bigotry neuron

Funny enough, all kids are currently being driven to school because this area doesn’t have one. The land was identified for a school over a decade ago, and it has taken this long to build it.

C. I have until January to make plans for what I want to do. It may be worth keeping Ultimate because of Fortnite Crew being bundled in. I want to see how it rolls out in November.

We’re system architects at core. We built a decentralized network so you could run your own moderation, but beyond that our upcoming healthy discourse project is taking some swings at the interaction model that drives these dynamics on Bluesky. Excited to start seeing it in action.

I see "Game Pass devalues games and is killing the industry" is back in vogue.

Free to Play titles are far bigger and far more detrimental to gaming's future than anything else.

Game Pass is barely a spec on the ass of F2P in the 'devalue full-priced games' argument.

Xbox sending a price increase email, but not making it region specific, continues the horrible communication of the updated Game Pass rollout

Hey so it's been a weird 24 hours where several opportunities didn't work out so if you're looking for any content creation / TTRPG casting / hosting / video game accessibility consulting / internal talks for October or November take a look at my website and reach out if I'm a good fit.

Thanks <3

Reinstalled @streamwithmeld.com this morning and played around with it for 30 minutes. It has significantly improved since I last tried it over a year ago. I will tinker with it a bit more and maybe give a test stream this weekend.

I rarely go to Reddit, but I decided to check the Microsoft Rewards subreddit, and it is imploding over the Game Pass changes. Apparently, people were locked out so they couldn’t cash out before the redemptions were removed. People with 1000+ day streaks walking away. They have lost the power users.
