- Comment on Report: Microsoft explored selling or spinning off Xbox division after Phil Spencer's exit 1 day ago:
Microsoft shuts down studios like it’s no one’s business. I don’t know of a single big tech company that supports devs.
Game developers are seen as free labour… Then companies wonder why their new consoles/systems flop.
DEVELOPERS! DEVELOPERS! DEVELOPERS! DEVELOPERS!..

It’s always just which ever is the biggest. They need to have two big ones the same size.
Science needs to resolve this question for both gas and electric. Is bigger always better? Or is it like how things thaw slower in hot water?

- Comment on When a tobacco shop opened next door, a Melbourne couple’s dream cafe went up in smoke: ‘It felt like a warzone’ 1 week ago:
This is the choice of the state government, and it’s helping them to lose the election unfortunately.
You make vapes illegal you create a black market. You have a black market for one thing, why not throw tax free tabacco in there too.
Oh you need to be criminal to get some of this stuff… Well the other shops are doing it and booming!
Oh great, now you have thousands of low level crime networks with contact with kids… They can do some of the firebombing.
All because the fucking state government wants to lose the election.

People should keep making it look like he took the bait and is angry about it. If everyone did this sort of thing to annoy him (or make him seem so) some more cracks might appear. More brain damage.

Wasn’t Ronald Reagan basically a vegetable near the end of his Presidency and Nancy was running the show because they were both evil.
OG Star Trek predicted it with a Nazi-planet where it turned out the leader had died and been replaced by microphones and computers.
- Comment on Man pleads guilty to sexually assaulting woman drugged by her husband 1 week ago:
The US has also recently found men doing this sort of crime:
en.wikipedia.org/…/2024_Cornell_University_rape_a…
But I am not comfortable calling it a fetish when it’s being carried out IRL (it’s a crime). I also am not sure “sleep fetish” is the motivational cause. I think these men are just rapists.
My understanding is that rape is often opportunistic, the rapist does so because they want sex and are willing to use someone elses body to get it (rather than being driven by some idea of sleep sex).
If it involved giving a “forget drug” doesed beforehand they’d happily still do that rape. If it involved someone being bound in a bondage scenario in the dark, and them taking turns - they’d still rape.
They’re rapists. I think that’s the motivating factor.

I’m not looking forwards to Pauline’s big surprise next month… And I’m shocked that most people aren’t actively warning others it’s a huge possibility. As is a Liberal party running Victoria.
- Comment on Man pleads guilty to sexually assaulting woman drugged by her husband 2 weeks ago:
Eleven men are due to stand trial, denying a range of offences including rape and attempted rape, with the abuse alleged to have taken place between 2018 and November 2025.
They are Philip Wild, 58, from Stockport; Jordan Wallace, 31, from Manchester; Alan Keelan, 42, from Manchester; Jonathan Kirk, 43, from Stockport; Robert Stewart, 70, from Stockport; Mohammed Sabir, 28, of no fixed abode; Graham Brougham, 74, from Northwich in Cheshire; Richard Townsend, 37, from Heywood in Greater Manchester; Karl Lindsay, 55, from Taunton in Somerset; Daniel Rayner, 42, from Whitstable in Kent; and David Graves, 59, from Ilkeston in Derbyshire.
This is starting to sound like a British version of the Dominique Pelicot case, in which she was raped over a decade by 72 men.

- Comment on 103°F in Los Angeles all week 2 weeks ago:
Generational warfare is a way to obscure class war, and a way to disconnect people from being inspired by the HISTORY of class warfare.
The 8 hour day? Unions? The wellfare system (such as it is), maybe Grandma was on the picket lines for some of that too.
