I won’t contribute to anything hosted on Github. It’s part of my blanket “no Microsoft” rule. I often wonder if I’m alone in that policy.

The guy who required a login for his game, allowing Microsoft to steal ownership from the earliest owners while he walked away a billionaire? That guy? That’s the guy talking about digital ownership?

Best he can do is cut funding for health care to fund a new military industrial complex.

Those are Matt & Steve’s. They sometimes do other pickled veggies and are also a Canadian brand. If you get the chance, try their spicy asparagus.

Since I mostly use computers for entertainment these days I keep coming back to Bazzite. It’s fast, stable, kept up to date, reliable, and “just works”. I’ve created custom rpm-ostree layers to faff around, but it’s not actually necessary for anything I need.

I used to keep a second Kubuntu Minimal partition around but I realized I just don’t need it. If I wasn’t so happy with Bazzite, I would probably go with openSUSE or Endeavor.

This is a good policy. They destroy everything they touch, anyway, including their acquired studios.

Here’s a reminder of how to interact with police.

In his defense, he does make a great point at the beginning of the video.

Using the term “politically correct” as a pejorative is a dog whistle. It is not literally political but communicates a right wing frustration over social consequences when they engage in overt racist, sexist, hateful, bigoted, or exclusionary speech or behavior. In more recent parlance it has been largely supplanted by a pejorative usage of “woke.”

Any AI that is trained on the internet – which is ostensibly all of them – will provide a broad reflection of the public zeitgeist. Since the prompt specified “politically incorrect” as a positive attribute its generated text reflected the training data where “politically incorrect” was presented as a positive trait. Since we know that it’s a dog whistle, by having lived through decades of it’s use in mass media and online, it comes as no surprise that an AI instructed to ape that behavior has done exactly what it was told.

Lovely. Let me pencil “zombie apocalypse” back onto my 2026 BINGO card.

So what literally everyone already knew.

“‘Not politically correct’ means ‘deliberately racist’”

What about ostrich? It’s red meat and much more healthy than beef, but I’m not sure it counts as poultry in this context.

The only Fallout games worth playing.

All of them. It was their founding mandate. It’s simply operating more openly and at unimaginable scale this year.

Have the day four years death of freedom, liberty, and prosperity you voted for, Americans.

Toys R Us. No contest.

It’s James Gunn, so it will be good.
