Today Microsoft moved all its GitHub copilot subscribers to token-based billing. If you want to see what happens when people have to pay the actual costs of AI, the day is finally here. It's obvious that every customer sees the deep, meaningful value and isn't angry at all.
youtube is incredibly stupid and age restricted the newest kill the computer episode based off of having “fucker” in the title, if this effects you somehow you can also listen on killthecomputer.com
This Saturday, under direct orders from Layoff Larry, we will be streaming Jackbox games! We'll be streaming from 1pm to 4pm ET, and viewers are invited to join twitch.tv/ggtribune
I haven't talked much about why I'm no longer writing for Hard Drive. But I'm feeling spicy today, so here's the tea. Trouble started when Sumerian Entertainment bought The Hard Times and Hard Drive back in December 2024. There was a transition throughout 2025.
This week on Hyperfixed - Late last year, a hacker wearing a pink power rangers outfit to preserve her anonymity took the stage at an international hacker conference, and proceeded to expose and delete a white supremacist dating site live. We talk to the hacker, Martha Root.

GitHub Copilot moves to token based billing on June 1, and its users have now got a calculator that shows how much they've been actually burning every month - some $39-a-month users have spent $1500 to $5800 in tokens a month. Microsoft's subsidies are insane. www.wheresyoured.at/premium-what...
Today’s premium newsletter is part 1 of my "What If...We're In An AI Bubble?" series, covering the scenarios that could burst the bubble - starting with token-based billing's destruction of most AI products, and the slow collapse of data center construction. www.wheresyoured.at/premium-what...
Premium: What If...We're In An AI Bubble? (Part 1)
Every day I read some sort of wrongheaded extrapolation about the future of AI — that today’s models are somehow indicative of AGI creating a “permanent underclass” of people that stops people from bu...

![a guy who pays for twitter blaming the downfall of twitter on anita sarkeesian (a relentlessly harassed video game consultant) naming her as the reason why we are in "permanent gamergate" and stating she's the hitler to Gamers' ann frank [sic]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:736a2iuogwgyoov7krnknb3p/bafkreiauyiub6towq4loiytymlxc6mnphteg4vfroffxqnkl7ifkhervty)
I keep hearing about oral arguments before the Supreme Court. When are we gonna hear about anal arguments before The Supreme Court
The short answer is the new owners stopped paying us for our work so we quit and started @ggtribune.com because we love making funny stuff together, and if we aren’t getting paid we may as well not get paid writing for our own website. We are paying our own writers though, unlike Sumerian.

killers of the flower moon: (left) the cinemark poster designed by noah kemoah, a member of the native american tribe central to the films plot. beautiful, sad, intriguing (right) generic poster that beats you over the head with star power. indistinguishable from a hundred other westerns at a glance
Alex Goldman@agoldman.bsky.social · 4mo agoI decided to watch Amadeus again (great decision) and can you IMAGINE hollywood going with such an abstract non descriptive poster today??? I had no idea what it was about for years, but it intrigued me everytime I saw it at the video store.
