Wow.
So the KIDS Act that the House is voting on soon creates a new federal agency that gets to decide how age verification and digital ID works.
No congressional vote needed anymore. Whoever the Republicans & Trump choose to sit on this agency dictate how the internet works.
Corporate America kills people on purpose because loss of life can be factored into a bottom line and is cheaper than prevention or systemic change.
They are allowed to kill us as long as they can pay the fines.
Our government puts a price on our lives for corporations to buy.
🚨🚨🚨
KOSA IS MOVING FORWARD IN THE HOUSE
It's part of a package called the KIDS Act, filled with digital ID and age verification and censorship.

My rent went up $300 a month.
I told people I couldn’t afford it. They said just move.
So I looked up what moving actually costs.
First month’s rent. Security deposit. Application fee. Credit check fee. Moving truck. Utility deposits. Time off work to do all of it.
That’s $4,000 minimum just to escape a rent increase.
The solution to not having money is apparently having money.
Poverty isn’t a mindset problem.
It’s a locked door that charges you to find the key.
@ThomlinDn12 Uh, my buddy is only this guy. I’ve never told anyone to kill themselves, nor do I want that for anyone. No one deserves to be abused, man. I fight against abuse when I see it; so I hope you find the help you’re looking for. Best of luck, friend.
@ThomlinDn12@TheRealBills75 I’m not really scared of anyone; and I never have ill intent. I have no idea what posts you’re referring to. I’m all for people living their best lives as long as it doesn’t endanger anyone else. I’m always accepting of anyone as long as they’re not racist, misogynistic, etc.
The U.S. is investigating Germany for making medication and healthcare a little too affordable for their citizens.
They're pressuring Germany to raise prices and invest more in "innovative pharmaceutical research" to keep international drug prices from going down.
Therapy helps but let’s be clear. You can’t CBT your way out of capitalism. You can’t mindfulness your way out of racism. You can’t self care your way out of oppression. You can’t journal your way out of ableism. This isn’t about coping, it’s about deconstructing the systems.
as someone who has been remote work engineer in private and public sector, large companies and startups for well over a decade, this is all false
what is happening is companies are having to become more competitive about employee compensation because they can no longer give u a shitty pizza party instead of a bonus, they are struggling to continue the “we’re a family here!” Propaganda that permeated pre-2010 work environments
workers having more free time as a result of 0 commute are able to seek more opportunities than before, outside of the closed loop ecosystems of in-office interactions and more time to build real relationships outside of work that aren’t anchored to the workplace that would normalize vaporize the second one of you leave the organization
you don’t go to work to make friends, this is a child’s view of work, people being kind to you and finding mutual interests and occasionally hanging out is more to do with having shared the same work environment, but beyond this you can never get very close with a coworker unless you want to be at risk of your coworkers collecting kompromat in the event you have a falling out
this just goes to show that the NYT and anyone agreeing with this article are out of touch and either have zero industry experience or are being paid to push this propaganda slop
a lot harder to brainwash people when everyone has access to all the footage and news of you slaughtering innocent children like animals you rotten fuck
Blueprints being deprecated doesn't affect me, as I've been developing since the dawn of time (including early UE), so I've no issue just adapting / evolving.
What bothers me is losing visual scripting tools that enables "everyone" access to the power that Unreal Engine offers.
Blueprints allowed anyone, even those who don't understand code syntax to make their own games in Unreal, and they're just taking it out back with a shotgun.
I use it every day at work. That's literally my job getting marked as "deprecated". What the fuck.
So fucking stupid. I don’t use Unreal for my personal projects, but Visual Scripting helped non programmers make games. Fuck off lmao GenAI will always be trash.
Hey Everyone. Our aim is to ship Early Access for UE6 by the end of 2027 and Blueprints will be supported in Early Access and the initial UE6 releases, but deprecated in the future.
Deprecation will mean a feature continues to be available without improvements, then is eventually removed. This timeline will be clearly communicated along with ways to migrate projects to Verse.
We recognize the value that Blueprints brought to UE4 and 5, but we strongly believe that Verse will become a more powerful and capable way to create game logic. We’ve already seen both experienced and new programmers create amazing things with Verse that would be challenging to do with Blueprints.
More details and conversations from us around this to come as UE6 Early Access approaches.
