  1. My favorite has been Steam's relatively tiny VR group producing a significantly superior product to Apple and Meta's VR offerings. The fact that valve is contributing major open source development to x86->ARM and Windows->Linux compatability layers is wild, SteamOS running on the ARM-based headset is a BIG deal https://github.com/FEX-Emu/FEX Can't wait to see that lead to more games running on cell phones natively. Hell my S24U is more powerful than an Xbox One from 10 years ago, why shouldn't it be able to natively run games from 15 years ago?
  2. Yeah that's why Elon bought Twitter
  3. Honestly that's a pretty solid critique of modern country music lmfao
  4. something, something, imperfect vessel
  5. Valve just dropped a ton of news! Steam Controller 2, Steam Frame (VR headset), Steam Machine (x86 linux gaming box running SteamOS), and even friggin SteamOS for ARM https://store.steampowered.com/sale/hardware
  6. Most podcasts aren't 100% scripted like a book reading is - it's inherently a conversational format with reactions and participation from the narrators. An audiobook has authorial intent and can carry the author's voice forward, even if it isn't literally voiced by the author.
  7. Wow strong public rebuke from a major intelligence ally https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/nov/11/uk-suspends-intelligence-sharing-with-us-amid-airstikes-in-the-caribbean Britain has suspended the sharing of intelligence with the US on suspected drug trafficking vessels in the Caribbean amid concerns information supplied may be used to engage in lethal military strikes by American forces. Such a decision – a rare rupture between the normally close military allies – would indicate that the UK does not believe the Trump administration’s controversial practice of sinking boats allegedly used by drug traffickers is legal. The UK, which retains oversight on several island territories in the Caribbean, has long shared intelligence with the US about the movements of suspect vessels travelling from Latin America, so they can be seized by the US Coast Guard.
  8. The Independent: Epstein claimed that Donald Trump ‘knew about the girls’ in private emails In one email to Wolff dated January 31, 2019, Epstein apparently wrote: “Trump said he asked me to resign, never a member ever...of course he knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine to stop.” In another email from April 2011, Epstein claimed to Maxwell that Trump had “spent hours” with a victim, whose name is redacted. “i want you to realise that that dog that hasn’t barked is trump...[VICTIM] spent hours at my hours with him...he has never once been mentioned,” Epstein told Maxwell, according to the emails. Wolff apparently wrote to Epstein on December, 15, 2015 — the night of a debate in the Republican presidential primary – where the author told the disgraced financier that CNN was “planning to ask Trump tonight about his relationship with you – either on air or in scrum afterwards.” Epstein replied: “If we were able to craft an answer for him, what do you think it should be?” “I think you should let him hang himself,” Wolff replied to Epstein, according to the email. “If he says he hasn’t been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you a valuable PR and political currency.” “You can hang him in a way that potentially generates a positive benefit for you, or, if it really looks like he could win, you could save him, generating a debt,” Wolff apparently continued. “Of course, it is possible that, when asked, he’ll say Jeffrey is a great guy and has gotten a raw deal and is a victim of political correctness, which is to be outlawed in a Trump regime.” edit: Others reporting too if that's more your speed https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/12/us/politics/trump-epstein-emails.html https://abc7chicago.com/post/house-democrats-release-new-epstein-emails-referencing-president-donald-trump/18147317/ and PBS has the actual emails https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/read-jeffrey-epsteins-newly-released-emails-about-trump
  9. It's the same "I'm not political, I just post in DT and the business board" type of bullshit lie that we see often. The "anti-political" folks are ALWAYS coming from a position of "the conservative dogma is law, and asserting facts that disagree with my narrative is deeply political"
  10. And the defendants negligence led to deaths of dozens of children. It's not like the plaintiffs have a hard time proving their damages and the Eastman's negligence. It's pretty goddamn apparent
  11. stripping voting rights from servicemembers, nice.
  12. bro don't be such a caveman - "bucks"?? He's got all that super-valuable $TRUMP coin just sitting there! Why not just issue stimulus in the form of his own private scrip? Save the public debt and all that hooey
  13. I think he would probably issue an order by fiat that funds from his extralegal actions and policy be redistributed. Hey wait, isn't that what the President is proposing?
  14. It's gone now
