  • I am a 15-year-old girl. Let me show you the vile misogyny that confronts me on social media every day

    Jump

  • My teachers taught me to never ever give my personal data away to strangers for my own safety. Now politicians want to force everyone to do just that. For safety reasons…

  • European Commission remains committed to halving road deaths by 2030

    Jump

  • The best way to prevent road deaths is to get cars off the road.

  • If you had any doubts that Know-Your-Customer laws were evil, here is one very good reason: personal data of 1 BILLION people just leaked.

    Jump

  • Why the hell would you use an AI tool for giant data sets of sensible data? Someone needs to go to jail and that company shouldn‘t exist any longer.

  • Microsoft claims "2026 is the moment" for AI PCs, but its essay-length beginner explanation only creates more confusion — Is it any wonder adoption is slow?

    Jump

  • The em-dashes in the title don‘t fill me with confidence for this article about slop.

  • Xbox’s leadership shift proves it: the gamer era is over, AI runs the show now

    Jump

  • Soulless corps and political parties love to put women and especially women of color in positions of power when things go sour. They don‘t expect her to be there for long. She‘s essentially a scapegoat hire.

  • Xbox’s leadership shift proves it: the gamer era is over, AI runs the show now

    Jump

  • You have that alternative already so when you‘re in that boat nothing really changed. But yes indie games will see the largest growth in the game industry this year for sure. Mega corps can‘t help but shooting themselves in the foot in blind greed.

  • Xbox CEO Asha Sharma shares her gamertag — what it reveals

    Jump

  • This is the fundamental problem in the game industry. It became so profitable over the years it attracted the worst kind of people to lead creative endeavors.

    Of course I‘m talking about scum from the finance world and big tech that we‘ve all grown to despise over the years. They don‘t know the consumer or the product. They‘re in it for the money and we can see that in mass layoffs, predatory monetization practices that make other entertainment industries blush and insanely bloated budgets for projects with no vision.

    They‘re disgusting parasites. They‘re killing games and that‘s why I play so much more indie and retro games than AAA.

  • Tesla Switches Full Self-Driving to Subscription Only

    Jump

  • Evil company does evil shit. Then again roads will be safer if fewer people have access to it and more annoyed drivers could potentially be a good advertisement for public transport. It‘s not all bad.

  • Artists face steep income decline due to AI, UNESCO finds

    Jump

  • A steep decline of artistic progress is ahead of us. Things will get reused by corporations even more and we‘ll have to get used to not seeing as many actually new things which I find pretty sad.

    It‘s exactly what happened to civilization in the Blade Runner universe. It may look futuristic but they‘re still seeing the same brands and hearing the same music and jingles from a century ago. There‘s very little actually new in a world where there‘s more content than anyone could consume in a lifetime and nostalgia is commodified to the absolute maximum.

  • 'We Thought It Would Be Fun': Nintendo Has a Whole FAQ on Why It's Selling Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Separately for $20 Each - IGN

    Jump

  • I remember plenty of GBA titles with language options. I used to buy them on flea markets abroad and didn‘t know a lick of english. I find it absurd that this one wouldn‘t have that option.

  • Video games are losing the "attention war" to gambling, porn, and crypto, according to industry report

    Jump

  • I am aware attention is the currency of the internet but games do exist outside of it. Unlike crypto. Their target group may overlap to some degree but games and unregulated gambling are still different things. Even when gambling is involved in games those markets are separated from the actual game like in CS2. That’s the extreme case and you can still play that game as normal without ever opening a crate. Games do not compete with crypto unless developers desperately try to.

  • Google criticizes Europe's plan to adopt free software

    Jump

  • They usually just buy politicians.

  • The Highguard Website Is Down As Players Brace For The Worst

    Jump

  • That’s funny. Because I was assured by this very community that it was when Tencent bought 30% of Larian Studios and they kept lying about having no share holders. They also have money in Fromsoft and Remedy by the way but I‘m eager to hear how Control and Elden Ring are shit because of Tencent alongside Baldur‘s Gate 3. You know’ since it‘s „never a nothingburger“.

    You know, dealing in absolutes and all that. To me this is a case of people warping reality to make sense of the world when they lack information. In reality you simply have no answers.

  • 'We Thought It Would Be Fun': Nintendo Has a Whole FAQ on Why It's Selling Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Separately for $20 Each - IGN

    Jump

  • You know there are Nintendo fans and then there are Pokemon fans. They have a reputation of not really being into games but being into everything Pokemon.

  • Tunic, Night in the Woods Publisher Says TikTok Is Creating and Running Racist GenAI Ads for Its Games Without Permission

    Jump

  • I really wish media would differentiate between different TikSlops. It‘s like Americans adopted the metric system but what they call meter is just a foot with a new label.

  • Video games are losing the "attention war" to gambling, porn, and crypto, according to industry report

    Jump

  • Crypto? Really? What data have they been looking at? I would say different people engage with these mediums for completely different reasons. Gaming being the more casual activity while crypto is for addicts.

  • Germany's Merz calls for real names on the internet

    Jump

  • Politicians should post their real incomes.

  • Petition to add Politico (and Axel Springer media in general) to the banned media list

    Jump

  • The comments may be mixed on this but the voting at least suggests people find this important to consider. I definitely wouldn‘t be against a ban considering what other things have been banned for similar reasons.

    I would prefer people find a different news source and not read politico at all but if they post it they should at least provide an archive link and a bot sticky should give context about the source. Many users clearly think higher of their media literacy than it actually is.

  • Ground News is BS for people without critical thinking skills. What they think is left is often considered centric conservative or flat out neoliberal outside the USA.
