Do want.

I didn't realize the codepages were incomplete for some languages.

Some solid math to show that dumping MagSafe in favor of USB-C will result in more dumped MacBooks.

Great point about how the ᴡᴀᴛᴄʜ will be the way we interact with the software of the physical world.

Good piece on using games to teach failure safely, by Steve Lubitz of Isometric.

It's so disappointing. And with these documents dating to 2012, who knows what they are up to.

I too would like to see "GG" mean "good game" only.

Glossed over in history class for me.

Close, stylistically.

Neat effect, and a boon for studying distant explosions. I wonder how this affects standard candle measurements of distance?

Galactus metaphor is a great way of thinking about the truth of white supremacy. Broad systemic oppression indeed.

Great piece by Ticci on how he's getting his health back after cancer, using the computer in his pocket.

It's a lot of fun, and the free to play mechanics aren't nasty for once. We've both bought some characters in-game.

Great points and a call to action for how men worship a particular mythical gamer girl.

Heh. Kick!

Loved this, especially since he used a Mac very close to my PBG4/400 that I used for 4 years full time and as a laptop until I got an iPad. I too hacked the 10.5 install, though it didn't run very well. Cool that he used Civ II as an example game. Interesting that the main issue is a lack of modern browsers and support for newer web standards and security; a sign that everything is about internet connectivity and particularly web applications.

Some additional preproduction trivia I didn't know.

Good points about the risk by having a token female director helm a big movie like Wonder Woman.

Some good ideas on long-term thinking, growth, and sustainability.

They laughed, but did they really get it?

Lived long; prospered.

I was pleasantly surprised by Wheeler's announcement.

Well that's pretty depressing. I won't complain about being tired...

I know almost nothing about skateboarding, but the parallels to techbros are striking. Also the idea of "skater girls of Afghanistan" is neat.

What a crazy old man.

Funny how quickly players assign agency to these AIs.

Interesting to see a non-religious person engage in Lenten practice.

So glad we moved, but feeling for friends.

Not surprising, and yet the depth is somehow. The government has made it pretty clear they have no interest in stopping this.
