I saw it was a Brian Herbert adaptation and decided to let it all come out before deciding on spending the time. If I had to guess, jumping around the timeline is going to confuse people.

First you need to define free speech.

Let’s use Call of duty as an example. People love to think of MW2 lobbies as free speech. Male Gamers used their “free speech” to make any women feel unwelcome the minute they spoke. White Gamers listening for any signs of non-whiteness to ridicule. Was this free speech? Or just a group imposing its views on everyone who stood out on the platform? Activision just wants to sell as many copies as possible. So those Gamers get the boot, now those women and minorities feel the freedom to play and speak again.

If the speech is used as a battering ram to relentlessly berate, shame, silence, and enforce groupthink, then there is a chilling effect on the more truly free speech of others.

Using this logic the only way to have a truly free speech platform is to keep these mobs in check, and remove or limit their hate speech.

It’s one drive adjacent, but I have 1 question.

Who at Microsoft thought in their infinite wisdom that they could remake the file browser but only for saving in O365. I hit save in word and it shows me some buggy list of random directories that you can’t navigate through, instead of opening a good old file explorer browse/save window. An engineer made the perfect solution 35 years ago, but that doesn’t look good enough for the new office design scheme so let’s make it nonfunctional.

Be careful, I’m assuming it’s a CRT in there. If you know what you’re doing then don’t let me stop you, but the capacitors and tubes can be dangerous.

Pebcak. I have a feeling you’re not truly pressing the windows button :)

Doesn’t everyone? Microsoft seems to think so.

Press Ctrl+shift+alt+win L to check their progress.

Their KSP2 design doc was too technical with not enough art? Did the publisher know which ip they were working on?

I’m not impressed with the LLMs. They do make great synonym generators.

Stable diffusion and other image diffusers are genuinely amazing. And I’m not talking about asking copilot to make Fortnite shrek. There are incredibly complex ways in which you can fine tune to tell it how to shape and refine the image. It has and is going to continue to revolutionize graphical art. And once the math shrinks down it’s going to be everywhere.

Wow, great looking solution. The Chiron takes up half my car shelf by itself so I get it. Must be a truly huge wall to make it look so small

I played a pretty good vr puzzle game like that, except you had to tap your cane. It was just called blind

I’ve still got mine. Although I wonder how many people learned about the ouya from digging through the Celeste Wikipedia.

I think it’s mostly for prototyping your own programs, which I haven’t tried yet. It comes with a wifi ssid snooper, and a like greeting card voice recorder/replayer. It’s credit card size, half inch thick. The back half is a removable battery expansion. The stamp has a usb c for data/charging. There’s WiFi, infrared blaster, sd card slot, expansion ports for other sensors. It’s nifty for sure, maybe someday I’ll find a use for it too.

The stamp in the top right is the entire removable motherboard. I put my cardputer on a shelf when it got here and I haven’t gotten around to it yet. M5 stack is pretty cool, and I wish I understood it more.

Hey, I have one of those!

Oh it’s a real thing. The frame seemed older than the 80s

No, something much more elegant.

The Wiimote.

He’s a random celebrity who has made games before, including directing the masterpiece BoomBlox.

That’s no random celebrity, that’s The Director.

Of BoomBlox obviously

The A.i. Pin s. Now in an all alu minium body

The best damned band in the land

Makes sense. I would have quit sooner if it was up to me.
