I’m a big proponent of buying local whenever possible. This plus something similar for physical products is really useful no matter where you live.

Vimium. Allows you to use your keyboard to navigate instead of needing to always reach for the mouse.

Switch to Firefox

Same, the physical camera button and 3.5mm headphone jack on the Xperia are awesome

Stoked. I missed playing MGS3 when it first came out and am glad to hear this remake is exactly like the original because I hear it was arguably the best in the series.

That’s refreshing to see in a world of ever increasing enshittification. Wish more companies move in this direction.

All the video games magazines would do an E3 issue and I remember binging on all the game announcements and event photos. Good times

Use libro.fm instead and part of your subscription goes to an independent bookstore of your choosing

This is what I try to tell people who just want the cheapest things possible. We’re voting with our dollars what kind of world we want.

Also, shipping things across the sea burns some of the worst fuel for the environment so I’d rather buy things made here and support the local economy whenever possible.

MSFT has a $3T market cap and $60B of free cash flow each year, so I doubt they’re hurting for money. This is how “growth at all costs” incentivizes myopic decision-making and doesn’t really help foster an environment where studios are willing to take creative risks. Even when they succeed (a la Hi-Fi Rush) they’re on the perpetual chopping block.

Yeah, I agree. A-1 did a great job with it. Hoping for the same with Fate/strange Fake

86 -Eighty Six-. Been pretty good so far. I’m a fan of Hiroyuki Sawano’s music in general

“The layoffs will continue until morale improves”

$6.4B for HashiCorp on the heels of $4.6B for Apptio and $34B for Red Hat back in 2018. I wonder how long until they expect each of these acquisitions to be accretive?

Recently moved over to porkbun after dealing with a couple billing issues with namecheap and not getting the best customer service. Been pretty happy so far.

Growing up watching Dragon Ball and DBZ is a fond memory and definitely a reason I got into anime like many others. Thanks for sharing your creativity with the world. RIP Toriyama-san.

They also recently won a deal with Rakuten Mobile to supply RAN equipment in Japan

The music alone is 🔥

100%. Seems like phones continually get worse under the guise of “progress”. No more headphone jack or removable battery, more bloated software, anti-privacy assistants/AI. Switched to a Sony Xperia for the headphone jack alone and it’s been great, I hope they don’t follow this AI trend or else I’m out.

That’s awesome. Loved JSRF, used to play it just for the soundtrack
