Ikut urun rembug soal IGRS boleh ya… Dulu pernah terlibat langsung dalam rapat-rapat inisiasi awal bersama Menkominfo saat kami bertugas di Kemdikbud.
Ada dua pendekatan melindungi anak di konten digital. Pertama, membuat lingkungan “steril” lewat sensor dan pemblokiran. Kedua, membangun “imunitas” pada anak serta keluarga. Pendekatan kekebalan jauh lebih berdampak dan berkelanjutan.
Rating game seharusnya menjadi alat bantu bagi orangtua untuk membangun kekebalan anak dgn melatihnya jadi mandiri dan cakap melindungi diri sendiri, bukan jadi instrumen sensor bagi pemerintah.
Oleh karena itu, pemerintah sebaiknya bekerja sama erat dengan komunitas game. Lebih baik lagi, biarkan komunitas itu sendiri yang menjalankan sepenuhnya dengan difasilitasi pemerintah. Tak perlu berpretensi serba tahu apa yang terbaik bagi setiap segmen masyarakat. Punya wewenang tidak otomatis punya pengetahuan.
IGRS selayaknya jadi alat pemberdayaan, bukan pembatasan. 🙏

@WeAreSecretMode hey dude, i'm playing the game right now, but i wonder why some of my achievement, like 'have a player score over 50 in a season' and 'sign mark hughes' is not opened, while i actually sign him and make shearer score 54 goal in 91/92 season?
@Tighan_@txtdrgame Di review mw 2023 banyak yang ngeluh susah bikin id namenya, tiap bikin id munculnya "inappropriate" mulu, ini recent review sih, gatau udah di fix apa belom
I worked at Epic Games for two years. This is real, and the strategy behind it is smarter than most people realize.
Tim Sweeney has spent nearly two decades buying North Carolina forest land. 50,000+ acres across 15 counties. He’s now one of the largest private landowners in the state. The purchases started in 2008, right after the real estate collapse wiped out developers who had been planning golf resorts and luxury communities on biodiverse wilderness.
Sweeney paid $15 million for Box Creek Wilderness, a 7,000-acre stretch in the Blue Ridge foothills containing 130+ rare and threatened species. Developers had owned 5,000 of those acres before the crash. He bought them for conservation prices when nobody else was bidding.
He runs the acquisitions through an LLC called “130 of Chatham.” He buys the land, holds it for years, then either donates it to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, sells it at a discount to state parks, or hands it to land trusts. In 2021, he donated 7,500 acres in the Roan Highlands to the Southern Appalachian Highlands Conservancy. Largest private land donation in North Carolina history.
The part people miss: he told the News & Observer that since 2021, land got too expensive to keep buying. So he shifted focus to converting his existing 50,000 acres into permanent conservation status. He’s locking the land into legal structures that make development impossible regardless of who owns it in the future.
A billionaire worth roughly $6 billion is spending tens of millions acquiring wilderness specifically during economic downturns, then giving it away or placing it under permanent legal protection. The land will outlast him, Epic Games, and Fortnite.
That’s the part that separates Sweeney from billionaires who write checks to get their name on a building. The building depreciates. The forest compounds.
There’s a debate going on about which is worse: mosquitoes or bedbugs.
As someone who respects facts, trauma, and lived experience, let me be clear:
Bedbugs are the worst creatures to ever exist.
Mosquitoes?
We Africans are built for mosquitoes.
They disturb you, you slap one, you get malaria, you treat it, life moves on.
Use a net, cover your body, sleep with fan, you’ll still manage to sleep.
But bedbugs?
Ah.
When bedbugs enter your house, you are no longer the landlord.
You are the tenant.
In fact, you are the visitor.
If ONE bedbug enters your house today, by tomorrow morning they are about 70 million.
No meeting. No warning. Just multiplication.
Bedbugs don’t disturb sleep, they cancel sleep.
They don’t bite you, they traumatize you.
If you survive bedbugs, you may need therapy to feel safe in your own bed again.
Bedbugs will make you appreciate the Nigerian government.
Bedbugs are worse than bandits.
You can fumigate today, tomorrow, next week,
one or two will still survive to tell the story.
In fact, to finally defeat bedbugs, you have to leave the house for them.
You relocate.. While you probably wait for Trump to Nuke your area.
And let’s talk about their confidence.
Bedbugs existed before beds were invented.
Meaning they came prepared.
Humanity just caught up later.
Their scientific name is Cimex lectularius- you see the name? Bedbug is a senior lecturer.
And trust me, bedbugs will lecture you about life, humility, suffering, patience and why pride is useless.
In every language, the name “bedbug” never sounds friendly.
In Idoma, it's called 'ikpre'.
In Ebira language, it's call Ikazi (which sounds like 'irazi', meaning 'war') You dey hear am? Bedbugs is a bringer of war.
No translation sounds like peace.
So please, let’s stop this debate.
Mosquitoes are annoying but Bedbugs are demonic.
If bedbugs visit your house, you are the guest.
Do you know that for many men, "Respect" is a higher love language than "Love" itself?
A man can stay with a woman who doesn't constantly say "I love you," but he cannot stay with a woman who doesn't respect him.
To a man, public disrespect, talking down to him, correcting him like a child, or questioning his competence feels like a betrayal.
Sometimes, he doesn't leave because he stopped loving you, he leaves because he feels unsafe with you. To a man, a disrespectful environment is a war zone.
Orang yang terbiasa melewati hidup sendirian biasanya punya tenang yang beda. Bukan karena kebal, tapi karena pernah jatuh paling sunyi dan bangkit sendiri, dia nggak takut ditinggal, yang dia takuti cuma satu: kehilangan dirinya sendiri.
