🚨 Erling Haaland refuses to throw Sørloth under the bus after Norway's defeat to England. 🇳🇴
🗣️ Erling Haaland:
Alexander Sørloth is a great player and, more importantly, a very good friend of mine. Football is a game of decisions, and sometimes you make the right one, sometimes you don't.
People watching from home have time to slow everything down and analyse every angle, but on the pitch you have a split second to make a decision. That's football.
I'll never blame him for that moment because we've all been in those situations. Every player has made a decision they wish they could take back.
I'm proud of what we've achieved as a team. Reaching the World Cup quarter-finals was something very few people believed we could do before the tournament started.
We gave our country something to be proud of. We fought for every badge, every shirt and every supporter who believed in us.
Losing to England wasn't because of one pass or one missed opportunity. We created chances throughout the game. We had moments where we could have scored, and they had moments where they punished us.
That's football. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, but you never point fingers at one teammate. We win together, and we lose together.
I'll always stand by Alexander, just as I know he'd stand by me. That's what being teammates is all about.
We leave this tournament disappointed, but also proud. This is only the beginning for Norway, and we'll come back stronger.
Gamers we have more good news. @Sony continues with the free fall of their Stock!
We must UNITE, we must work together. Keep applying pressure, keep canceling PSN, keep canceling pre-orders and keep canceling GTA6.
The louder we are, the more we continue to post, the more we continue to speak with our wallets, the worst it will get for them. They can't ignore the majority continue to #BoycottSony
I am proud of all of you who have join in the fight and welcome anyone else who want to help. Keep going, WE GOT THIS!
Mexican lawmakers are preparing to file an antitrust complaint against Sony over its reported plan to stop releasing new physical PlayStation games after 2028.
They argue that if the PlayStation Store becomes the only place to buy new PS5 games, Sony could gain too much control over prices and distribution.
The complaint will reportedly be filed by Federal Representative Iraís Reyes and Senator Luis Donaldo Colosio with Mexico’s competition authority. They argue that:
- Without physical copies, PlayStation users would lose the ability to shop around for the best prices.
- Retailers that sell new games could be pushed out of the market.
- The second-hand and game-trading market would effectively disappear.
- Sony would have greater control over game pricing and distribution through the PlayStation Store alone.
- Developers and publishers could become more dependent on Sony’s platform and its commercial terms.
Sony just got hit with a $457 million lawsuit because they decided to stop making physical PlayStation games after January 2028.
Their own move to kill discs is now being used against them — the company can’t pretend players still have a physical option anymore when the PlayStation Store becomes the only place left to buy new games.
They tried to force everyone into their ecosystem with no competition and higher prices, thinking nobody could push back.
Turns out removing consumer choice just gave the lawyers everything they needed.
Big corporations love taking away what we actually own until it costs them hundreds of millions. Sony played themselves.
Physical media still matters. Ownership still matters.
KODANSHA DESTRUYE A OTRA MANGAKA
El escándalo corporativo de la editorial Kodansha empeoró drásticamente tras revelarse una nueva y brutal denuncia por parte de otra de sus artistas.
Maru Kayata, ilustradora de "The Girl, the Shovel, and the Evil Eye", confesó que la empresa retuvo injustamente sus pagos por más de un año e ignoró por completo su alarmante deterioro físico.
A pesar de sufrir una severa pérdida de peso, la directiva la obligó a seguir trabajando en condiciones inhumanas.
Esta nueva denuncia confirma que el reciente abuso a la autora de "Cells at Work!" no fue un caso aislado, sino una cultura laboral destructiva.
La explotación es el estándar.
@PlayStation This is why I dropped PlayStation and went to PC after years of being a console gamer I knew this would happen since they kept trying to limit physical copies but now they won't exist at all anymore.
This is honestly really sad that this happened and Sony doesn't care anymore.
@PlayStation There’s no reason to stay with PlayStation anymore.
After more than 30 years with Sony, I’m switching to PC.
With no physical games, there isn’t a single valid reason to stay with PlayStation instead of buying a PC.
Sony has officially killed its own appeal.
PC has won.
Información que os irá muy bien tener a todos, sin importar la plataforma en la que juguéis.
El futuro del gaming, si no os unís a la lucha contra PlayStation, será así:
➡️ Juegos que no van a ser realmente vuestros.
➡️ Licencias de juego con fecha de caducidad.
➡️ Precios desorbitados por todo.
➡️ Pérdida de puestos de trabajo y tiendas.
➡️ Pérdida del mercado de segunda mano.
➡️ Pérdida de eventos y comunidades gaming.
Para los que creen que no vamos a cambiar nada, aquí un análisis sencillo sobre la situación mundial de la empresa:
➡️ La noticia se ha hecho eco en todos los países, en televisiones, prensa, podcasts y hasta en gobiernos.
➡️ Sony a estas alturas amasa incontables demandas y enfrenta sanciones y futuras sentencias que le obliguen a restablecer su formato, sobre todo en Europa.
➡️ Ha perdido toda la credibilidad a nivel mundial, factor clave a mantener para cualquier empresa en el sector del entretenimiento.
➡️ Los números de la bolsa solo reflejan el apoyo inicial de sus accionistas, no los de ventas y son una pantalla de humo ante la situación real que acarrean.
➡️ La reyerta de sus consumidores, los unsubs masivos y el cese de compras en su plataforma, sumado a todo lo anterior, de mantenerse, hará que los próximos 31 de julio y septiembre, tras sacar sus charts, pierdan el apoyo de sus accionistas al darse cuenta de las pérdidas masivas reales que están sufriendo.
Si tenéis por imposible un cambio de dirección, yo creo que no sois conscientes del barrizal en el que se encuentran.
De hace ya días que deben estar en gabinete de crisis, tratando de parchear los mil problemas que les deben estar surgiendo en masa y tratando de trazar un plan de contención para que no vaya a más.
¿Que se esperaban un backlash? Por supuesto, pero está claro que, aunque el anuncio fue perfectamente medido y estudiado para amortiguarlo y seguir, no se esperaban que el mundo entero se les girara en contra.
Como usuarios debemos seguir con la lucha, tener fe y apoyarnos unos a otros.
Se puede parar esto, que nadie lo dude, pero solo si nos mantenemos firmes, día a día y sin vacilar.
Now do you understand why players are not only fighting for physical media, but a redefinition of what it means to OWN a game that you BUY?🚀
NO DISC 💿 NO BUY
Rockstar reportedly told Sony to remove GTA VI's branding from the PlayStation App after the disc controversy got too hot
Sony killed physical discs for all PlayStation games starting January 2028.
The backlash was instant.
Politicians calling for regulation. KFC and Domino's publicly roasting them. The internet turned on Sony overnight.
A week ago Sony had GTA VI everywhere.
App icon changed. PS5 dashboard taken over. Store completely redesigned. No PlayStation game has ever gotten that treatment.
Now all of it is quietly gone.
When Rockstar doesn't want to be associated with your decisions you know it's bad.
A new company backed by Peter Thiel is developing floating offshore data centers that harness the power of the ocean itself, using seawater for cooling and renewable energy for electricity.
Panthalassa aims to anchor massive AI computing facilities far from shore, where the sea provides natural, abundant cooling and nearby offshore wind, wave, or solar power can supply clean energy.
This approach comes at a critical time. Artificial intelligence is driving explosive demand for data centers, which consume vast amounts of electricity, produce intense heat, and often face strong local opposition over noise, water usage, and strain on power grids.
Instead of fighting for space on land, Panthalassa plans to place these facilities in deep ocean waters. The company has already tested a prototype called Ocean-2 off the coast of Washington state, with larger commercial versions expected to operate in fleets.
One major advantage is location: floating data centers can avoid the growing community backlash against large AI facilities built near residential areas.
While SpaceX is reportedly exploring the far more ambitious idea of orbital solar-powered data centers, placing servers in space remains technically challenging and years away from reality. Panthalassa’s ocean-based solution offers a more practical near-term alternative that sidesteps many of those engineering hurdles.
As AI continues its rapid growth, innovative companies are not only reimagining how computing infrastructure is built, but where it should be located. The ocean may soon become the newest frontier for powering the future of artificial intelligence.
