  • Trump set to expand immigration crackdown in 2026 and increase workplace raids

  • Unless I missed it, this article doesn’t mention that last year — so without all this ICE bullshit and wasted money — the Biden admin deported more people than the Trump admin this year.

  • NY Times’ David Brooks Said There’s Too Much Focus on Jeffrey Epstein. Here He Is Hanging With Epstein.

  • It was always weird to me the more I learned about this douche that NPR would have him on their news show as the conservative side guy.

  • 2025 Game Awards Results Discussion

    Jump

  • Sad my GOTY Death Stranding 2 didn’t win anything. But oh well. I hadn’t played Clair yet so I started it today. It’s good so far. Don’t know if it’ll top my Norman Reedus with a Fetus* yet though.

    I actually think it’s time to retire flute guy. I think flute guy has jumped the shark, bringing in pvc pipe whatever instruments that you can’t even hear. You had your time in the sun flute guy.

    Overall, I thought the show was OK. They need better pacing on when they are actually giving out awards. It seemed like there was a stretch of an hour where no awards were announced.

    And I agree with the whole of the internet that the last trailer was a fat lot of nothing. Sorry to that team for working on a “dead” genre for years. I only say “dead” because by this point everyone has picked their game they like in that genre, and trying to add a new one right now is a terrible idea.

  • The Game Awards begins 11 hours from now. What are you looking forward to?

  • Give me some WOODKID performing songs from Death Stranding 2.

    I need a good cry.

  • PS5 is outselling Switch 2

    Jump

  • Honestly, if I was really into AC still I’d be ok paying for the work of some devs of a five year old game if it made some good quality of life upgrades.

  • Caught "Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair" tonight...

  • Adding Fortnite?

    I bet Paul Dano would have done a better job with all this.

  • Left 4 Dead co-creator is directing a mysterious co-op shooter for JJ Abrams' production company, and Sony's going to publish it: "We hope to deliver a bold, innovative experience"

  • JJ Abrams?

    The Star Wars JJ Abrams?

  • The Last Video Rental Store Is Your Public Library

    Jump

  • Hell yeah.

    I actually just finished Better Call Saul for free* from my library. Got to keep the last season for three weeks even so it was easy to get through.

    Only downside is that libraries will generally not have 4K Bluerays or whatever, but it’s not the end of the world.

  • Porsche Cars in Russia Shut Down After Satellite System Failure

    Jump

  • I feel like I got my car at the perfect time:

    It has Android Auto and CarPlay, and it's a manual so there's no way for it to turn on or off remotely.

    Now I just have to make sure it survives until I die.

  • Beware of flashbangs in the latest Windows 11 updates

    Jump

  • I’ve been working on a dark/light mode for an app at work so I’ve been toggling the system theme from light to dark a lot this week.

    Anyway, half the time the taskbar gets stuck in the old mode so it’ll stay dark when set to Light. But the text will change so it’s black text on black taskbar. Super cool stuff MS.

  • MKBHD's Panels wallpaper app is shutting down

    Jump

  • I totally forgot about this app because, well, it seemed pretty forgettable.

    I'm also not in the target demo since I currently have my wallpaper set to whatever my phone wants to rotate in and out every hour from my Photos app.

  • Palworld dev isn’t impressed by "so-called" AAA, prefers indies since they "include the kind of systems you can’t find in other games"

    Jump

  • I feel like this is pretty reductive, really, to blanket all AAA games as one thing that are all bad. Just like all indie games aren’t great. In fact, the vast majority are kinda trash, really.

    For every Call of Duty, you can find amazing games like Death Stranding 2 that have insane budgets but swing for the fences (and succeed in my opinion). And on the flip side for every Silksong you have three million, anime-girl-on-the-cover trash indie games.

    There’s no “one is better than the other” when comparing the totality of AAA vs indie.

  • I’m trying this app out now based on your comment, and so far it seems really nice. I may replace Voyager with it as well.

  • What are you playing this weekend? 2025-11-21

  • Kirby Air Riders! It’s very fun.

    And then also trying to finish Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment

  • I had a bit of a breakthrough with some personal growth with my code today.

    I learned a bit more about entity framework that my company is using for a project, and was able to create a database table, query it, add/delete/update, normal CRUD stuff.

    I normally work mostly on front end code, so it was rewarding to learn a new skill and see the data all the way from the database to the UI and back - all my code. I felt great after doing a code review this afternoon to make sure I wasn’t missing anything, and we talked about some refactoring to make it better.

    AI will never give you that.
