@beardalaxy It was intended to appeal to Western audiences. In fact, neither one of the games was ever released or intended to be released in Japan.

@Aldo2 Not every RWer worships Trump or Elon.

I'm pretty sure the Tesla attacks are a psyop made to get clueless RWers to think that electric cars are "based" now, and buy Elon's kill-switch backdoored cars.

> . Our capitalist system is largely based on a competing theory, the “subjective theory of value”, which states that value is defined not by the labor required to provide a product or service, but by market forces, or more concretely by the subjective value negotiated between a buyer and seller. I admit this theory is compelling when applied to some examples, for example when explaining the value of a Pokemon card. When it comes to intellectual property, however, I find it very unsatisfying, given that a laissez-faire free market would presumably evolve a very different approach to intellectual property. As such I think that intellectual property as a concept depends at least a little bit on Marx for its legitimacy, which I find very funny.

i guess he's spot on with that, IP is socialism

The Covid-19 pandemic should teach Americans to never defer to “experts” who promise that granting them boundless power will keep everyone else safe.

For years and years, I've been searching for a rare Canadian computer game - and I finally found it. Really excited to get to share Crosscountry BC.

If you grew up here there's a good chance you played Crosscountry Canada at school. This is the local BC version, made just for local schools, and tracking it down was *really* hard.

I got my hands on a Sharp Keitai 4 and for the next month I'll be using it as my daily driver, as an experiment.
No touchscreens, no Google services, no doomscrolling, just me rawdogging a (badly translated) Android 10.

Would you be interested in a blogpost summarizing my experiences afterwards?

Why do people complain about roguelike mechanics in everything, but not this?

@PurpCat @coolboymew Isn't Fitbit one of the tech companies that Trump tried to work with to implement red flag laws?

@PurpCat @coolboymew Are we sure Google didn't add anything to it since then?

@coolboymew Yeah, but someone needs to check the source code, clean up all the telemetry and backdoors, and released a fork.
