  • “We’re responsible for titles such as Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis and Hatsune Miku: Colorful Stage in cooperation with the bases in Tokyo and overseas,” Segawa explained, before bringing up the Crazy Taxi reboot.

    “We are also participating in the development of triple-A titles, including Crazy Taxi,” he said. “At present, we don’t have any titles developed independently by the studio, but we intend to do so in the future.”

    Dude’s just trying to communicate the scope of work his studio is involved with, I’m going to take the AAA remark with a grain of salt since it’s not from Sega.

  • Plus average job growth isn’t evenly distributed. Noone is mad some people’s wages improved even with inflation, enough to keep the averages up, but a good amount of people’s situations worsened and manufacturers+distributers continue to charge $20 for 12 rolls of toilet paper.

  • I do—I support a handful of creators (including some web content creators) directly via patreon, and donate to the important guys like wiki and craigslist. I don’t support any news organizations and am not sure how they’ll pivot.

  • I already click right back out of websites that don’t make it easy to reject cookies or ask for an email. I certainly won’t be registering anywhere and will find other ways to get the information I need. At this point I am immediately turned off by anything that relies heavily on ad-revenue to exist anyway.

  • I visited and did a day trip bus tour that visited Loch Lomond, the kelpies (statue), and some ‘airy coos (hairy cows) which was a lot of fun. I hadn’t done a bus tour before but it was pleasant getting to see the scenery. Lomond had these cute little efficiency cabins available for rent and was not crowded if you’re interested in tiny house style accommodation. I also recommend the hike up to Arthur’s Seat if you’ll be in Edinburgh.

  • This guy obviously shouldn’t be in jail, can someone expand on the guy who the article says was forced into psychiatric care?

    Anyways this one legal loophole has been around for awhile—rich people can acquire really low interest loans against their assets so they do, and they use that to pay their expenses, and when it comes tax time they write down that they made some money but they also took out a massive loan so actually they’re in the red. If you own a house you could probably leverage this to some extent yourself. Maybe if everyone who could did it they’d close the loophole? Obviously you couldn’t get rates as low as a politician who chills with the Schwab CEO.

  • I think this is a general problem with online discussion. You can have more productive discussion about capitalism/socialism/anarchism in a bar in the deep south than you can online. Online people tend to forget there’s another person with a brain on the other side of the conversation (if they even intended to be having a conversation, which people mostly don’t). We know from every day life that people don’t speak carefully in conversation—you really have to be constantly extending the benefit of the doubt. Online no one extends the benefit of the doubt even though we know most comments are off the cuff on the toilet.

    There are some neat online tools for structuring discussions like Kialo that I think make some headway in diminishing the effect, but drinking a beer with someone while discussing still works better as far as having an interlocutor who is actually considering what you’re saying and who might actually be willing to shift their own view.

    Internet is better equipped for quippy one liners and getting (bastardized) ideas into the zeitgeist.
