For every VTuber or fandom bully who finger wags that being too woke is career suicide.
Rin Penrose fresh off of a stream for Mermaids - a UK charity for trans children - is now part of maybe the biggest collab group on the VTuber indies.
And he's damn well earned it.
I’ve made cookies that I like to call “sand cookies” you make sugar cookies and add two handfuls of cornmeal and a little bit of honey
For all my fellow autists who want to eat sand
Meet Bruce Taylor, of Taylor Farms. This man makes huge contributions to Trump so his lettuce is never inspected. So far, this man has given us E. coli, and cyclospora.
He does NOT allow his lettuce pickers to take bathroom breaks.
Kroger brand lettuce is actually Taylor’s.
Sony is in FULL PANIC MODE right now
A Discord user named RSantila has reportedly managed to boot Astro Bot on PC using SharpEmu, a PS5 emulator for Windows PC.
Astro Bot is a 2024 PS5 exclusive, so seeing it even boot on a PC is a HUGE!!! PS5 emulation development is moving CRAZY fast.
Yes, the software is called LG OnScreen Control Plus. it runs silently in the background. it tracks which applications you use, when you use them, and how long. it phones home to LG servers. it cannot be uninstalled through normal means without leaving registry traces.
gamers noticed because some anti-cheat systems flagged it as suspicious software. the monitor was getting people banned from games.
now the TV side:
LG also updated its webOS terms of service. if you use the AI voice features on your LG TV, the company says you may need to inform guests in your home that conversations could be recorded.
not LG informing your guests.
you. the homeowner. legally responsible for notifying anyone who walks into your living room that the television is listening.
LG built a surveillance device. sold it to you. and made the disclosure your legal problem.
so to recap what LG shipped this year:
a monitor that installs tracking software on your PC without asking.
a TV that records conversations in your home and requires you to warn your guests.
both devices look exactly like a monitor and a TV.
neither one tells you what it actually is at the point of sale.
you found out when your game banned you.
or when you read the terms.

Americans are so entitled, they treat a natural disaster that is primarily threatening Canadian lives and livelihoods as something bad that Canada is doing to them.
When you guys are hit with wildfires, we send firefighters to help. You send Karens to talk to Canada’s manager.
Weird I would think not wanting to be surveilled by an AI-Enhanced super camera that tracks you everywhere you go the moment you leave your house would be the default position.
They cut funding for your healthcare, your children’s schools, and disease control.
But they can fund flock, data centers, wars that make everything harder. ICE can kill with impunity.
And if you dissent to any of it, you’ll be called a “commie” and they want to kill you too.
It comes down to the Marshmallow test;
You want your kids to be the type to "wait for the 2nd marshmallow" of a rewarding life, but younger people are convinced that if they choose to wait, not only will the 2nd marshmallow never come, but the first one will be taken away too.
I'll translate.
What Asmongold is trying to say is he's not religious, but he loves the bigotry and hatred that Christians have normalized in this country and he wants to preserve those values.
I'll keep saying it, because it'll never not be relevant, fuck Asmongold.
elon musk bought twitter to “turn it into the worlds townsquare” and in doing so, he made changes that feel the furthest from that its ever felt. you used to be able to find pockets of community where it felt like you could meet people and make genuine connections, not anymore
Tim Sweeney typing away at rapid speed, individual keys flying off, as he reaches for his dose of copium, insisting that rescuing dogs is actually irresponsible.
Frank Cifaldi, director of the Video Game History Foundation, says piracy has become the only practical way to preserve many older games that would otherwise disappear.
“As the director of a historical video game preservation institution, and someone who has dedicated his entire adult life to this cause, this is accurate.”
“We have attempted to work with the industry’s trade organization to find a legal path forward, but they refuse to offer a meaningful alternative.”
