Casualy sliding this out of my pocket like, no way bro, i always keep that thang on me!

What if I told you that there are roughly 4 million steamdecks in existence. Ref

And that this is about 1\3 of the Steam Linux market. Ref and about half of the entire handheld PC market. Ref

Of course, we dont know how many MAU GOG has so maybe 4 million new customers is baby numbers, but Steam seems enamored enough of that market segment to commit huge new UI and store features (deck verification, “Runs on Deck” filters, other deck specific stuff) including the game controller mappings which do help with non-deck also but were clearly a necessary element for handhelds. Maybe deck users, it being a committed gaming platform, spend more on games?

Anyway, trying to get subscribers (always a teeny fraction of your free users) ahead of converting new non-customers into customers, seems like bad econ to me.

If GOG is so hot for game preservation why not see if they can score an emulation deal to bring lost handheld titles to PC\deck? Sega might be down, NeoGeo is owned by the Saudi’s, I’m sure they’d love some free money for their back catalog. That’s in line with Lutris’ mission of being the one game launcher for your entire library. A few strategic investments and partnerships could open up GOG as the gateway to classic gaming across devices, but that would require some vision to carry through.

Props for #2 being a #2, but of these I usually go for 6. My personal favorite though is Pentel twist erase.

Though all the kuru toga enthusiasts here have convinced me to give them a try.

I also buy 5s in bulk, those shitty bic pencils are the “little brother” option when my D&D players forget their own writing instruments.

Folks seem awfully confident in their ability to encode other things with only a single letter, but who said you get spaces or other seperators?

I’ll take A, so I can express how i feel everyday now:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

YOU’LL HAVE TO SPEAK UP ME HEARTY! THE MATES AND I ARE RAIDING 7\11 AT DAWN FOR CANDY AND SODA! ARRRRRRRRRRRR(oooooooooo)!

One of my favorite books! Great world building and quite thought provoking!

These are fine examples, but all over 20 years old now! (Also I’m still salty about Origin Systems in 1992!)

But hey, EA has never stopped sucking! We can also lament recent purchases like legendary UK studio Codemasters (2021) or Respawn (2017). Respawn is especially funny since it was made by ex-Infinity Ward founders, who got bought again! I wonder what their next future-EA-acquisition project will be?

1. This article is 3 years old.

2. Good luck finding the actual list. This redditor apparently compiled one themselves. https://www.reddit.com/r/scrabble/comments/my5tie/the_419_words_erased_from_csw/

3. Like all censorship: this is ineffectual and incomplete. Do enjoy digging around the list of words still allowed “because they have secondary nonoffensive definitions” like bitch, cunt, asshole, suckhole, sonofabitch, and of course…

FUCK FUCKED FUCKER FUCKERS FUCKFACE FUCKFACES FUCKHEAD FUCKHEADS FUCKING FUCKINGS FUCKOFF FUCKOFFS FUCKS FUCKUP FUCKUPS FUCKWIT FUCKWITS

I’ve been hoping to save this one next time I saw it. So… thanks!

Oh so like the music industry where every artist retains full rights to their work and the only 3 big publishers definitely don’t force them to sell all their rights leaving musicians with basically nothing but touring revenue? Protecting the little guy like that you mean?

Or maybe protecting the little guy like how 5 tech companies own all the key patents required for networking, 3d graphics, and digital audio? And how those same companies control social media so if you are any kind of artist you are forced to hustle nonstop on their platforms for any hope if reaching an audience with your work? I’m sure all those YouTube creators feel very protected.

Oh don’t worry, I get myself involved in plenty. I prefer to make problems at the architectural or “leadership” level though.

To paraphrase a common joke, it’s called the Fediverse because it’s full of feds.

This was probably a rare Babylonbee hit and OP was rightfully ashamed of the source.

I’m really wondering what it means myself! Is it like superstitious programming? Or “cookie cutter” perhaps, using templates and copy-paste from QA sites to duct tape it all together?

I figured rule of threes meant it was funnier to leave it out. 2017 would have been sad gooning to pornhub during the first trump nightmare.

Then 2027 could be sad gooning to ai hyperporn during the second trump nightmare.

Maybe I should have used 20 year jumps, but "2037, I am jerking off because there’s no food, and the internet is nothing but ai porn.’ didn’t seem as funny a point for the “time shattering” bit.

I thought this was going to go Watchmen for a moment. Like…

It is 1997, I am a young boy, I am jerking off to a grainy porno playing over stolen cinemax.

It is 2007, i am in my dorm, i am jerking off to a forum thread full of hi-res porno.

It is 2027, i am jerking off to an ai porno stream that mutates to my desires in real time. I am about to nut so hard that it shatters my perception of time.

Like all good sci-fi, they just took what was already happening to oppressed people and made it about white/American people, while adding a little misdirection by extrapolation from existing tech research. Only took about 20 years for Foucault’s boomerang to fully swing back around, and keep in mind that all the basic ideas behind LLMs had been worked out by the 80s, we just needed 40 more years of Moore’s law to make computation fast enough and data sets large enough.
