RIP
Because people who would do something, ANYTHING, even slapdash or to little effect, are taking action. If somebody hasn’t been moved to action by now nothing is going to move them, and they can just keep their head down and stay out of our way.

My budget priority when determining which publications to support: Co-op > Labor unionized > Profit sharing > Employees seem to like management > Corpo

The easier it is for me to see that labor is treated well, the easier it is for me to keep subscribing.

Sensational headlines like these in my RSS feed that give LLM way more credit than they deserve are why I will not be renewing my subscription this year.

The main guys hated filming with COVID precautions, and as somebody who still masks and tests anytime I go out, I can sympathize with them wanting to wrap shit up and get back to book writing

As somebody who purchased SoM but is adhering to BDS as best they can, I think some editorial rationale at the top of an article about how coverage was considered against BDS would be adequate. Ex.: "BDS optionally targets XGS, but SoM/Overwatch are inclusive when US govt is oppressing minorities"
December 26, 2025 at 6:00 PM
BDS asked for a 3 tiered optional approach with 1st being cancel Game Pass and 3rd boycotting anything published. First call for BDS I can find is Apr 3. SoM released Apr 8. This is incredibly unfortunate timing and huge overlap of audiences.

It looks like it's compatible with and inspired their other game, which was itself inspired by Phantasy Star espergenesis.alligatoralleyentertainment.com

And those aren't necessarily even big hurdles. Nvidia may not even make consumer gfx cards anymore, and games that require anti-cheat, live-service games, might be wearing out their welcome. The only game I missed this year is... Destiny 2. I still had a great year gaming.

Anti-cheat and Nvidia drivers are probably the last significant hurdles.

It's only money, you cant take it with you, and really when will retro ever be a better deal?
