Moon Channel has a really good breakdown of how bad things are in terms of gender equality in South Korea.

It’s good in a way that isn’t really expected - the only thing I can say without spoiling is it did something really different with things that had been there a long time.

Hah, jokes on them, my university is too poor to afford copilot.

I mean, here is a thought, if an AI tool uses creative commons data, then it’s derivatives fall under creative commons. I.e. stop charging for AI tools and people will stop complaining.

Let’s pause a moment and just appreciate how much money Alphabet actually make net (after expenses). $73,795,000,000 last year - higher than the GDP of entire nations, in profit.

The “bad” year, 2022 that drove all this change, they only made $59,972,000,000 net. Oh how terrible (!)

5 years ago, they made $34,343,000,000 net, so they’ve more than doubled profits.

Take a moment to appreciate that, and really consider if they “need” the money.

No support for Linux - steam has it built in and the DRM free nature of gog games means that they’re not too tough to get running via wine.

It’s a (less sexist) variation of the “silence wench” meme aimed at brand marketing. Usually you see it deployed against company owned social media profiles in protest of their invasion of a social space. However, it can also be deployed against newsvertising (advertising disguised as news articles/guides).

Ah, the copyblight strikes again.

I’m no longer really surprised at this - it just makes me sad. We’re literally trying to burn down the library of Alexandria to raise the price of books.

Copyright law is a blight upon the world in its current form, and unless people take a stand it’ll rot the beauty from the net and hold humanity back.

Freedom planet series

La mulana 2 (though it has some adult jokes)

Undertale (frisk is deliberately gender neutral to be imprintable)

Touhou Luna Nights (the original touhou games too, though the translated dialogue doesn’t always make sense).
