@sundogplanets 💯 It is infuriating that space exploration is tied to this Nazi owned company. Not going to watch this, unless it explodes catastrophically, then I'll watch clips.

Happy 12th birthday to me! 🎉🔸🎂🔸🎉

We've come a LONG way since 2014. Remember what 1.0 looked like?

@gaditb right, this more closely matches my understanding :)

🇮🇱El Gobierno de Aragón rechaza una planta de baterías de la israelí Enlight tras la movilización social.

El Instituto Aragonés de Gestión Ambiental desestima la autorización ambiental del plan proyectado en Samitier (Huesca). 130 organizaciones pidieron al Gobierno en 2025 que paralizase la planta por los vínculos de Enlight con el genocidio palestino.

@lowqualityfacts That’s his addiction to Marlboros riding him.

@ami_angelwings Pretty much all big gaming controversies range from the stupid to the utterly naive.

And yes, that most likely includes whatever you think doesn’t.

We all have limited time. Stop following opinion farmers. Don’t waste time on it. Go enjoy some games instead.

(I don’t count opposing bigotry, racism, or hatred. But imho that’s not a gaming thing. I oppose that in all things.)

If I go hotter I will be thrown off the internet.

The purloined planet:

Astronomers find a third planet around the nearby very young star Beta Pictoris… and it was hiding in plain sight for over a decade! [with amazing video of the planet's orbital motion]

GOES-19 Goes Down, NOAA Investigating

The poet Juvenal wrote that the people of ancient Rome were bribed with bread and circuses to accept the end of democracy and the establishment of the dictatorship known as the Roman Empire. The tried-and-true playbook to accustom people to autocracy is to meet their material needs while channeling their attention towards activities that substitute for self-determination.

Donald Trump is trying to accomplish something more unusual: he aims to preside over the destruction of the last vestiges of the social safety net and the impoverishment of the middle class while buying off his support base with entertainment alone.

His administration has not bolstered the economy but further destabilized it, as if intentionally rendering people more precarious, desperate, and exploitable. In return for this, we are supposed to content ourselves with watching the violent reality television gameshow of his presidency.

Less bread, more circuses.
