Nothing else to say.
- Comment on Exclusive: Bluesky is getting its own photo-sharing app, Flashes 5 days ago:
Flashes itself is based on Berlin developer Sebastian Vogelsang’s earlier app, Skeets, his initial foray into creating consumer-facing apps for the growing social network, Bluesky, which now tops 27.5 million users.
While Bluesky offers its own official mobile client, Skeets differentiated itself by focusing on the needs of iPad users as well as customized accessibility features for blind and low-vision users, as that’s one of Vogelsang’s areas of expertise.
Okay so this is coming from someone other than Bluesky the company, which is very promising for Bluesky’s ongoing decentralization.

I saw a YT comment that said “I feel like this is like peeking at your presents before Christmas then pretending to be surprised on Christmas day” and that’s where I’m at. Basically all rumors confirmed, in the best way. Looking forward to those magnetic joycons 🙏

Mario Maker? A lot of folks thought the Switch was a step down from the Wii U for MM.

- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 is reportedly getting two major Xbox games, including Halo [VGC] 1 week ago:
i think you’re right, but I think they’re kind of just facing reality. Games cost too much to make, and they aren’t making enough on hardware sales to justify exclusivity. Although, I think the door is still open for them to stay in the console space, and maybe even overtake Sony in the next gen if some weird stuff happens between now and then. More likely, I think they just become another Sega like you said, except they still sell a small batch of hardware on the side, for people that want a Game Pass console.

i heard very similar remarks on Jeff Gerstmann’s podcast on Tuesday. He’s an old GameSpot/Giant Bomb dude. Sorry if my original reply came off as snarky in any way, reading back i can see how maybe it comes off like i’m accusing your response of being not your own.

- Comment on AMD's new AI-based FSR 4 upscaler impresses in hands-on testing at CES 2025 on RX 9070-series hardware [Eurogamer/Digital Foundry] 1 week ago:
Technically they just announced the 9070 and the 9070 XT, so there are two different designs that could be considered part of the “9070-series”. They could also be saying “series” because most of the 9070s on the market will be AIB boards with slightly different feature sets.

- Comment on Facebook Is Censoring 404 Media Stories About Facebook's Censorship [404 Media] 1 week ago:
Fair point. Evidently I didn’t read 100% of the article.
- Comment on Facebook Is Censoring 404 Media Stories About Facebook's Censorship [404 Media] 1 week ago:
sure, but what is 404 Media supposed to do about that? If they stopped sharing their stories on these services, they would have no way to reach new audiences, and so they would slowly start dying off. You could argue that a larger publication like NYT could certainly take a stand like this, but traditional media isn’t exactly in a strong position right now. Decentralized platforms are useless to these publications if nobody is using them.
- Comment on Facebook Is Censoring 404 Media Stories About Facebook's Censorship [404 Media] 1 week ago:
tbh it’s where i get a lot of my memes. there are still a lot of good pages and groups run by funny people. generally i view it as bad for me in the same way it’s always been bad for me, too much easy dopamine or whatever. Misinformation is out there and censorship is out there, but that’s why i don’t rely on FB for news.
