There is no engineering reason that we can’t have flying cars. Arguing over the validity of the stunt is already a failure. This technology is pointless and no consumer will ever use it, even if every Tesla Roadster contains it. It’s key jangling. If you are astonished by it you need to grow up.
"Flying cars are real!" 🚀 Elon Musk and Tesla showcase the new Roadster.

I was already honored to be a voice in their game, but now I’m DOUBLY grateful to have @doublefine.com’s continued support as they unabashedly celebrate our collab! (And please don’t worry. While my success & public joy seem to be upsetting to some, I feel like I’m getting to live my dream life!)
Double Fine's decision to cast Erika Ishii has sparked harassment and abuse online, prompting the studio to shut down replies.
With respect, I actually disagree with this, at least in my case. The thing that opened my eyes to the magic of games was the breadth, not a single experience. That said, the three games that really put me on the path were: Tetris Myst And Ocarina of Time With an honorable mention of FF7.

Free newsletter: The idea that we're nearing the creation of AI systems that we can't control and that pose an existential threat to humanity is a lie and a distraction from the tangible harms and problems caused by LLMs and AI labs' near-unlimited resources. www.wheresyoured.at/ai-is-alread...
Then there’s no reason they can’t change words like “buy” and “purchase” to something like “license” right? Consumers apparently already know, so what’s the harm?
Sony says "reasonable consumers" know they don’t own the digital PlayStation games they buy. It argues that it's "not plausible" to suggest that when they buy a digital game they actually believe they're "obtaining ownership" of it. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/sony-sa...

I want to call all "look at my expensive cards", vacuous pack openings and "sorry that your poor" content a new label 'Rich Boy' content. And it fucking sucks. It's time to talk about exceedingly expensive collectibles, influencer marketing and much more.

This! Plus we need to put every climate criminal in prison
Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

in getting more friends into this game i've found that telling them "look, you're gonna eat shit for the first 8 hours you're playing this. think of death as a lesson, not a loss" does miles on getting them past the initial hurdle

Marathon is free to play this week. It is the best video game I have played this decade. I know people who have never seriously played an FPS who have cleared Compiler multiple times; it really is not as intimidating as it maybe sounds, it just helps a lot to have friends. Join us on Tau Ceti IV!

The most impressive thing about Darby’s title run is how he completely 180d fan sentiment from “this guy can’t really be champion can he?” To “the wrong guy won” after MJF took it back. They’re both just so good at this.
#AndNEW!!! With his hair intact, MJF is once again the AEW World Champion! #AEWDoN

BREAKING: Global Sumud Flotilla activists released from Israeli custody after Israel seized an aid flotilla bound for Gaza in international waters, say they were tortured, sexually assaulted and denied basic legal rights. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.news/finz9n
It’s Mr. Brightside. OP suggests it’s not an acceptable answer because other generations listen to it too but that’s true of everything on this list as well. Honorable mentions to Black Parade, Misery Business, and any number of Kanye, Jay Z, and Beyonce songs but Mr. Brightside has wild reach.
had a debate last night about the definitive millennial song. some contenders: mgmt’s “kids,” yeah yeah yeah’s “maps,” kanye’s “all of the lights,” arcade fire’s “wake up,” postal service’s “such great heights,” animal collective’s “my girls,” lcd soundsystem’s “all my friends,” stroke’s “last nite”
