do you know how bad you have to fuck up as a cishet white dude to get the entirety of gamer reddit to side with a trans woman over yourself?

If you’ve ever wanted to see someone go through like four different stages of I’m Not Owned! in a single ill-advised statement, probably not going to find better than this.

I don't know what's more damning, the possibility of some guy with one of the worst cases of CEO brain typing "who is Stella" into Claude because his grey matter is too rotted to remember who he hired or him thinking its a sick own on a former employee to lie about having done that in the press

Axios writer: I melted my brain with AI. Not only can I no longer read, but I don't even understand the purpose of reading anymore. Here's how you can also do this. www.axios.com/2026/08/11/r...
[back in the day] Low level programmers: "It's all about optimizing every byte and every cycle, use as little RAM as you can" Other devs: "Nonsense. We have plenty of RAM" [today] Low level programmers: "Well well well"
I would like to see more companies admit this - being a public company no longer means running a successful, thriving business. It strictly means delivering growth to investors, every single quarter, who do not care at all about the product the company sells or the people who produce it.

AI proponents have the mistaken impression that people will like a piece of slop and realize that they actually like AI when they find out it's slop. These are people so foolish they must have never once realized they've been lied to and know how people generally respond to that.
I saw this elsewhere and had to share it. Jimothy is just too darn cute.
Under a Binface government, anyone who doesn’t accept human-made climate change as fact will be sent back to school, from Year 1 right the way to A Levels, to see if anything goes in the second time round. #VoteBinface
philosophers only want one thing and it's fucking discussing
The AI bubble is why I hate silicon valley and the tech CEOs so damn much. They ruined my love of tech and turned it into a means to enrich themselves and amass power. We should be using tech to help each other and make the world better, not as a means to build power and wealth.

I am so tired of people who can't code telling me about how AI helps them code to 1% of the ability of a professional, which sure is 10x for them. It's like me telling people that the invention of music theory will make actual musicians obsolete because now I, too, can write chords that sound OK.
when the phone rang we used to answer it. now we wait for it to stop ringing and then look up the number. shutting all the blinds and curtains and turning off the lights is optional, sometimes we just move house
Steam Last Fest, where the front page just shows all the games you’ve bought already and haven’t played over the years
To summarize, AI will cause personal computers to cost $10,000, all applications are frozen to about 2025 design and implementation, power to run the computer will be twice the price and also you need to sign in with your passport to start your computer. Explain to me again how this is progress?
The AI rollout is an incredible test case for the power of capital to overrule everything in its way. An overwhelmingly stupid, obscenely polluting, and wildly dangerous set of technologies are being brute-forced into every part of our lives because money says so.
Game failure? Layoffs Game success? Layoffs Game delayed? Layoffs Game delivered? Layoffs Game announced? Layoffs Game unannounced? Layoffs Game good? Layoffs Game bad? Layoffs Game AI? Layoffs Game no-AI? Layoffs Game hated? Layoffs Game beloved? Layoffs Money cares more for layoffs than games.
Nice ones and zeros you’ve got there. Would be a shame if someone assigned meaning to them
everyone making their own lib/tool with chatgpt instead of working with each other is such antisocial behavior haha, I think this more than anything this is what will come around to do the most damage
if you’re feeling depressed about the AI changes announced by Google yesterday, let me bring some comfort: some of us are still trying to build AI-free products, and as long as there’s people willing to take the fight, there’s hope 🔥 No opt-in, no opt-out, no nonsense. NO AI.
Pizza doesn't need influencers or evangelists or "tech bros", because it's pizza, and pizza sells itself.
Feels like just in my lifetime the tech industry went from solving problems to pretending to solve problems, to creating problems
Digging us out of the ditch and then building political and economic infrastructures and policies that make sure it does not happen again.
We kinda settled on talking about "enshittification" a lot because it maps to our experience of the world: Everything slowly collapsing. But what we need is a push towards first "unshittification" and then "antishittification":
I choose to believe this is how most 90s arcade race tracks were initially conceived #gaming #retrogaming #arcade
