This is a big part of why searching for reviews on things sucks now. Garbage fake reviews and SEO boosting bullshit

Did you know in Japan they have laws around doing layoffs? They require the company to try every other avenue before being allowed to lay people off as a last resort. That includes dramatically reducing the pay of executives before they can prove they are in actual dire straits and can legally let people go

I find it pretty strange that there's no mention of a PS5 Pro nor even the inevitable PS6 in this Insomniac leak, with roadmaps and stuff included. They are a first party dev, so they should have gotten briefings and target specs much earlier than the 3rd parties rumored to be getting their Pro dev kits just now. It was said only 98% of the data was released. I wonder if someone bought all the info pertaining to the future consoles

This is why I still buy Blu-rays when I actually want to buy a show or movie. Maybe enough people will get mad enough we'll see some legislation put in place to ensure certain rights for digital purchases

Toyota has built an EV with a fake transmission, and we’ve driven it

Five minutes behind the wheel, and you'll be a believer.

The more you learn about Mike Johnson and the religious extremist movement of which he is now the most prominent part, the more scared you should be. These are dangerous people with more power than ever before.

The most dangerous movement in American politics today is not Trumpism. It is Christofascism. With the election of Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) as Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, the organized effort to impose the extreme religious views of a minority of Americans on the entire country, at the expense of many of our most basic freedoms, took a disturbing step forward.

Notice how essentially nobody in Washington asks “if we can afford” an $886 billion defense budget?

No, we only hear that when we need health care, or student debt relief, or climate action, or paid family leave, or universal pre-K, or child-poverty relief.

I got a threatening message from Reddit for still having one of my subreddits dark (private). So to keep my mod status there, I am slowly reopening it. However, I am launching a replacement community over on Lemmy and encouraging our users to join.

If you enjoy electronic rock music, or synthrock as I like to call it, please join us! https://lemmy.world/c/synthrock

🧵 Europeans are subject to something called the Bread Tax. It's when cultures do not adapt to technological progress. European bread goes bad in a day or two, whereas American bread is good for weeks. For this reason, Europeans are forced into dense housing to be near new bread.
