Games are not exclusive to humans — other mammals, fish, and insects inherently play as well

Google’s monopoly ruined what search engines could’ve been, and now AI is making it worse.

@pluralistic ...and yet, with the same annoying thumbnail design (cute/frowny face) favoured by the same corporations - and algorithms - he seems to despise. (sigh) I kwow, i know. But its quite painful that any dissenting voice have to play the game, lose his/her soul, and only THEN achieve the vissibility to...to what? to denounce the system on which they`ve become dependant for income and ego-trips?
We`re all trapped by this contradiction. Its extremely irritating.
No hate. Just pain.

@adamconover Adam, Windows is still a thing, and Microsoft still sucks, and we still hate it.

@adamconover Hey Adam, LGBTQI refugees in Kenya are requesting an audience to tell their stories... "Kakuma is a death camp for LGBTQI refugees." -Peter Tatchell, LGBTQI activist. He goes on to say "No one is helping LGBTQI refugees at Kakuma. Its a real shame." A month of research cannot find any charities that are helping... Please use your platform to uplift their voices before the death camps come to our states... I have friends there and they need protection and advocacy 😭🙏🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

About to embark on a project I’ve been wanting to do for a long time: I’m playing through The Legend of Zelda, on an NES hooked up to a CRT, with only the manual and original map to guide me, just as though I were a kid in 1987. Wish me luck!

Going to turn this into a thread as I play through. This cartridge I picked up from a local shop already had a save file for “BUTT”. Looks like the person died 17 times and made no progress. No way I’m deleting that - I’ll save my file in slot 2.

Adulthood means being able to buy as many video games as you ever wanted, but having absolutely no time to play them.

@adamconover Adulthood is using your brain instead of your wallet.
You can torrent pretty much any game safely with a VPN.
But you're probably proud to spend money instead of using your brain. It's a common flaw of this generation of nincompoops.

@adamconover Or having the time to play them but still just playing Minecraft with the Nomifactory modpack.

Please help me I put in 21 hours over the past 3 days into this modpack
