Heeeere we go. Hoping to see a wave of new life breathed into the VR scene 🤞

powersurf,

If the grandma on Carousel of Progress isn't wearing a Vision Pro by the end of the year, I'm going to be very disappointed, Bob!

We’ve seen this movie. A few times.

This reflects back the human developers are…not good. Who builds a simulated lethal system w/zero safety interlocks? They shouldn’t be allowed to code a toaster oven. Wtaf USAF.

    @virtualbri my favorite part is always when they try to write up how the new logo embodies the philosophy of the company. Sure it does.

    @virtualbri The keyfabe of the design world. It’s usually just the one that everybody on the committee hated least after running out of funds to have the agency create more options.

    It is Witch King release day! It's out in hardcover, ebook, and audiobook narrated by Eric Mok. It's been reviewed in the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal, which I'm really happy about. Here's a tag for some posts with the acknowledgements, a Witch King playlist, and some links to the reviews: https://marthawells.dreamwidth.org/tag/witch+king

    It's okay to resist capitalism on an iPhone. The feudal lord who owned the pitchforks the peasants killed him with probably observed the irony too.

    More of us should be paying attention to Ron DeSantis’s use of “cultural Marxism,” an antisemitic trope, during his presidential launch speech yesterday. This is no different than a major politician casually incorporating any other hateful, racist slur into a prepared speech. It is dangerous and reprehensible. (For those unfamiliar with the term, see https://www.salon.com/2019/05/05/a-users-guide-to-cultural-marxism-anti-semitic-conspiracy-theory-reloaded/.)

    In rural Australia in the 1940s, my mother had rocks thrown at her and was branded a 'communist' because her father, a school headmaster, advocated for establishing a public library.

    In the Canadian province where I now reside, the Catholic Church controlled libraries -- and thus access to information -- until the 1960s.

    We forget how recent the democratisation of knowledge is -- how transformative such institutions were and how hard-won.

    We should not part with them easily.

    With the end of the Public Health Emergency, the CDC has removed the transmission map from their website.

    This is how you manufacture the disappearance of a pandemic.

    Disney demanding that Andor continues production without writers during a labor dispute proves that Disney execs do not understand Andor.

    Update: Tony Gilroy does the right thing and bows out of producing Andor, during the period of the writer’s strike.

    Good for him.
