Hideo Kojima on the end of physical disc production for video games:

"Since production is ending in 2028, this is about video games, but I grew up with physical media, so I find it really sad. Currently, I’ve been buying up a lot of Blu-rays, such as various movies, and CDs too.

The situation is different for games, as they are downloaded to the hard drive, that means the game data remains on your own hardware. However, if things shift to streaming in the future, that won’t be the case anymore.

With streaming subscription services, like Netflix or Amazon, there is a server somewhere, and you essentially just have the right to turn the tap, and when you do, the data flows out. That’s how movies work on these platforms, right? You don't download the data, you access it directly through a subscription. And the consequence of that is that you don't actually possess the data yourself.

There are companies that own these servers and let you 'turn the tap' for a monthly fee. However, with nations, politics and various ways of thinking, one naturally has to consider the possibility that if there is a change, the data inside will stop being distributed. And if that happens you won’t be able to watch or play the movies and games you like.

That is what is frightening.

So, what is happening to video games in 2028, might also happen to movies. I’d like everyone to keep that in mind."

@TouhouEnjoyer_ The only way I'm working is if I'm getting paid for it. It sounds like this company is coercing people to work on a lunch break while not be able to clock back in.

Once upon a time there was a program called Skype

Skype was too big to fail everyone used it!

One day, Skype bloated itself with garbage to the point that everyone hated it, and left to go hang out with their friend Discord.

To all the people boycotting Howarts Legacy. Instead of bitching about the game why don't you donate that $60 to a Trans hotline that offers emotional support to people that be going through shit and actually contribute to a good cause.

Just a thought.

Europe is experiencing its worst heatwave ever recorded.

The combined intensity and scale of this winter heatwave is unlike anything in European history.
