Just today, I became a time traveler. Unfortunately, you'll need to put aside the images of a humble writer running from dinosaurs or flirting with Cleopatra running through your head…

"Indies will save us" No! YOU WILL SAVE INDIES! Go leave a review for that neat indie game you like, share the trailer for an upcoming game you're anticipating, tell your fave developer they did a good job, go tell people about such and such game that's just come out, you can make a difference!

KI-Unternehmen verbrennen Bücher. Seltene, auch wissenschaftliche Arbeiten könnten der Öffentlichkeit dabei für immer verloren gehen, während die KI-Unternehmen ein Monopol auf das Wissen erheben. Dann verkaufen sie uns, was sie selbst gestohlen haben.

No longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions. Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.
