Here is how I get out of Youtube copyright claims. I use this general format and it works 98% of the time, I swear (just, y'know, make sure you ain't lying and the video *is* Fair Use, and personalize the dispute to be specific to that video.) ✨You're welcome!✨

When I was young, the internet was mostly just weird web pages, Flash games, chat rooms, and shit like Stick Death. It wasn't perfect, but better. Today, the web is actively rotting 12-year-old boys' brains via algorithms, right-wing chuds, influencers, manosphere podcasts, and AI-slop.

Another thought on this - storage space (ie - SSDs) have increased so sharply in price that storing digital games is becoming increasingly difficult and expensive. Discs are DIRT CHEAP to produce - so even if you have to install them, you have a physical, cheap solution right there.

I guess that's that then, huh? The end of buying games for PlayStation for me - at least, for the most part. I guess I'll still play some games from time to time but talk about destroying interest in a platform. Only Nintendo remains but for how long? blog.playstation.com/2026/07/01/p...

Our games industry is people. Our studios are people. Our teams people, our games by people for people. Our games are made by people, in groups of people, in teams of people, making people things for people. The magic is people, and the people deserve so much better than all this. I am so sorry.

Well, I've been affected by the Bungie layoffs, and I guess I'm now looking for work. I'm a senior narrative designer on Destiny 2. I'm going to thread a little list of stuff I've done on the game; normally I go out of my way to avoid attention, but today I'd appreciate reposts.

Aside from the existential threat of component parts and everything going on there, player apathy to anything outside their own bubble of interest - especially when it comes to live service - is the biggest threat to console, imo, and has been for several years. But what do I know.

NEW: Bungie is planning a significant layoff following the end of Destiny 2's development. Destiny 3 is NOT in active production. Some Bungie staff are pitching and prototyping new ideas including Destiny games, but none are yet greenlit. Story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Bungie Plans Layoffs After Ending ‘Destiny 2’ Development

The Sony subsidiary will focus on ‘Marathon’ rather than jumping directly to ‘Destiny 3’

Usage-based pricing killing your vibe - here's how to roll your own local AI coding agents

Usage-based pricing killing your vibe - here's how to roll your own local AI coding agents

Take those token limits and shove them by vibe coding with a local LLM With model devs pushing more aggressive rate limits, raising prices, or even abandoning subscriptions for usage-based pricing, that vibe-coded hobby project is about to get a whole lot more expensive. Fortunately, you're not without cost-saving options.…

Listening to infosec people freak out over Mythos is so tiring. Like, bro, your local water treatment plant runs Windows XP, your mobile provider's hardware is older than you are, and the protocol that routes internet traffic is secured by everyone just agreeing that hijacking it would be uncool.

This gives away the whole game, as people have been warning for years and years. This is identity erasure of a whole class. the precedents for having documents revoked by group…are not good.

This story, from @natezuke.bsky.social, is absolutely wild. A trans woman who never changed her gender marker was issued a letter invalidating her license. At the DMV they cut up her license, which had an "M" marker. www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...
