To those doomering or doomposting about #StopKillingGames, how we failed, or our chances are dead because the ECI is over, we have a message that goes back to the times before we reached 1 million signatures: It's not over until it's over.

We have multiple paths to victory here

This decision is not unexpected. But we were prepared. Hence, we're pushing forward with @Europarl_EN ammending #StopKillingGames to the Digital Fairness Act. We can move on without the Commission and their non-decision, as @accursedfarms mentioned before: https://t.co/UqQ9AsJo4J

Decade ago I liked the idea that "technology is neutral; it's how we use it."

Nowadays, I'm no longer as accepting of that premise. Turns out: Tech is very much driven by ethic (and) needs.

This "thing" we're calling "AI" reflects those people's goals. Their actions confirm it.

@djnlkc Dokle god grad ne budu vodili ljudi sa zelenom agendom kao prioritetom, pa suzili i podeliti ulice, izdigli trotoare, pojačali javni prevoz i generalno urušili auto-centričnu kulturu, nema tih regulatora koji može da reši ovaj problem. Jer dizajn promoviše etiku, a ona kulturu.

This is the third (personal) website that suddenly went dark without an explanation just as I've added their RSS in the last month. I must be a curse… 😶

Some time ago I quietly restored the original Eets to work on modern PCs - in addition to Windows and macOS there is now a native Linux version as well! D3D8 and DirectSound got replaced with FNA3D and FAudio respectively.

@dobrinacelnik Pitanje onda bude: Indoktrinacija najmlađih? Čista predstava za naivne (roditelje)? Ili klasično poturanje pipaka u svaki segment društva radi izvlačenja materijalnih koristi?

Sve to po stranu, ali ove tabele izgledaju kao da su ih pravili u Exelu — pre nekih dvadeset godina. 😒

One of these days I really have to get my shit together and create a Wikipedia page for Ethan Lee "flibitijibibo".

Icculus (thankfully) already has one, and I believe it'd be a shame to have Ethan's name lost to history considering all the work they've done for Linux gaming.

ESA (the lobby) just bullshited about the POG Act being "forever server support" again, and this time its their CEO personally :)

You'd think having 'em come to completely overhaul our street after 10 years of it falling apart would make me happy. But fun fact: No.

They made it wider, levelled with the pavement, with non-permeable asphalt. Perfect for this car-centric society.

I hate it. Passionately. 😒

@dobrinacelnik Moj lični stav jeste da su pušači neki od najsebičnijih ljudi danas. Truju sebe, truju druge, truju prirodu. Spremni su da to rade uprkos upozorenju i molbi, a rado će da postanu i agresivni ukoliko pokušaš da im se suprostaviš. Oko starih, oko dece, na otvorenom, na zatovrenom.

Billionaires are planning to destroy one of Europe’s most important natural areas to build a luxury resort, with the backing of Prime Minister Edi Rama.

The protesters have been met with violence, barbed wire and threats. But they continue protesting to say #HandsOffVjosaNarta

🚨 Today, They Are Meeting Without Us.

🏛️ The @EU_Commission is 2 weeks away from a resolution that could decide the future of game ownership. While we are fighting for the consumer, @videogames_EU is hosting an event 'Games in Europe: Built Here, Played Globally' filled with industry giants and the very policymakers who will decide our fate.

⏰ The timing is just impossible to ignore.

🙌 @StopKilingGames drafted an Open Letter to ensure the industry hears the community’s voice, but we know a letter is only as strong as the people who share it. We would love for you to help bring this into the public eye, in whichever way fits your platform best:
