Sitting outside a cafe and three kids come down a set of stairs in front of me. One starts going right while another goes left. “Which way?” The third kid asks. Right kid: “this way’s faster.” Left kid: “this way’s more fun.” They took the left route.

Harrison Ford, the actor behind loveable scoundrels Han Solo and Indiana Jones, started his career as an on-set carpenter. That makes him a roguelike deckbuilder.

On the bright side, if Carroll kills the project now, it deprives the Libs of the one policy they actually have going into the election.

My beef with Morrissey runs all the way back to 1986 when he said this about Black artists. Nineteen Eighty Six, while the Smiths were still active. It’s not a “later phenomenon” don’t try and lie to me www.standard.co.uk/culture/musi...
I love how I could be making money right now, but because of the government’s refusal to abolish the privatised job network, I have to waste time in an employment provider’s office.
This would be an unmitigated disaster for Australian democracy if it happened. I hate the LNP as much as the next girl, but I would take them over fascists any day.

Man, I haven't been this excited about a new show in years. There was a stretch of about 10 or 11 years where I read this novel on the plane every time I flew to Tokyo to help me get into the right headspace. This is going to be so good

In October last year I was fired by Rockstar Games in what we believe was a union busting move. We lost our home. We lost 2 jobs with my partner being forced to resign. We lost a community. Most importantly however we had to leave our two dogs behind, one of which will never return.
Chris Bratt@chrisbratt.bsky.social · 2w agoBack in October, Rockstar Games fired 34 employees for alleged gross misconduct. The severity of these firings could have spelled the end for a burgeoning union effort that was underway, but it didn't. In fact, the union is now *bigger* than it's ever been before. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ym4z...
Vibe coded shit has become such a huge problem lately and has polluted so many areas related to FPGA, recompilations etc. Nearly every example of this produces broken or poorly performing results. It's happening exactly as I feared.
JezMM@jezmm.bsky.social · 3w agoSiiiigh vibe-coded recomps have come for my beloved Mischief Makers next. There's only one video up of it which doesn't show any of the 3D scenery stages, but the 3D rocks in the intro have broken textures. Emulation used to have that problem decades ago but it emulates perfect these days.
