“Hype is eating the future, and leaving us the bones.” Sun-ha Hong of UNC-Chapel Hill says the Silicon Valley hype machine systematically “borrows credibility from the future to purchase legitimacy in the present.” The cost, he argues, is a planetary-scale drain on our alternatives.

RFK talks about autistic and Arabic people the exact same way. He assumes they are not capable of ordinary or extraordinary achievements because of who they are. He considers them sub-human because they are not like him. This makes it plain that his is a white supremacist eugenicist project.
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

what are they demanding, that whoever is left at EA wear a skinsuit mad e of bioware's corpse to continue FRANCHISE so they can CONSUME FRANCHISE, pathetic imo, corpse still warm and they want it dancing around for their amusement
An online petition to save the Mass Effect franchise after BioWare was shut down by EA has garnered over 200,000 signatures in four days. @bioware.bsky.social checkpointgaming.net/news/2026/10...

Our economy is running on a pure sugar-high at this point. Just wisps of cotton candy that completely evaporates in our mouth so we gobble up more and more. Stop electing conservatives and that includes neoliberal Dems. We need socialism and massive regulation on capitalists.
This analyst's report from Apollo about AI uses the term "S&P 493" to refer to the "S&P 500 minus the Mag 7" - because if you take out the AI companies, the S&P 500 is tanking. www.apollo.com/wealth/insig...

I remember when that game was announced as a multiplatform release (pre the Great Reset), which might have offset this (insane) budget, but who says business decisions need to make any sense?
A source tells Kotaku that Gears of War: E-Day cost over $500 million to make. Sales estimates have been weak despite earning the highest Metacritic score since the original trilogy. If ... https://kotaku.com/the-case-for-exclusivity-when-gears-of-war-e-day-cost-over-500-million-to-make-2000747986

with sloppy (but convincing enough) AI vibeclones on the rise, developers now face a future in which a steady stream of pre-release videos, demos, and playtests—the only reliable way to promote and build community—could be their game’s undoing
Game developers fear that thieving AI vibecoders will make free game demos a thing of the past aftermath.site/steam-next-fes...
This is how Microsoft is planning to beat Nintendo.
The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...
Who gives a fuck about what this dead-eyed turd “feels”?
Michael Fusella supported President Trump for nearly a decade. But as the Iran war drags on and the cost of living continues to climb, the 21-year-old Republican said he feels betrayed by a president who said he’d end overseas conflicts and lower prices.

Paris is the world’s most urgent voice informing and warning us against Big Tech’s real motivations and devastating impact. Paris’ new book HYPERSCALE is a must-read. Also listen to @thoughtrise.bsky.social and I talking to them on our podcast three years ago: open.spotify.com/episode/4g3r...
🚨 TODAY’S THE DAY 📚 After years of work, my new book HYPERSCALE is finally on bookshelves! It chronicles the data center boom just as the backlash is reaching a fever pitch. Get your copy today: hyperscalebook.com

I don’t just want us to be opposing data centers, but also starting a larger debate about how we build technology and who that technology serves. The tech industry is forcing their vision of the future on the rest of us, but it doesn’t have to be that way.
“How much computation do we really need here? How many resources are we willing to dedicate to this vision of the future? And is this technology really delivering in such a way that expending all those resources is justified?” I spoke to CNET’s @katelynched.bsky.social about my new book HYPERSCALE!
