Spencer's problem, along with ALL OF MICROSOFT, is that they have been far too nice to developers for far too long. They took the criticism that they were "The Man" to heart, and let the creatives run wild with unlimited money. They followed your advice:

A Sidhu Moosewala tribute trailer has become detached from the transport truck pulling it blocking both lanes of Coleraine Drive.

If you want young men to celebrate virtue, then you’ve got to give them stories of virtuous male heroes that “outmog” these guys.
The most competent character will be the most magnetic.

Camille Paglia said she thought of Revenge of the Sith as “the most ambitious, significant, and emotionally compelling work of art” of its time.
Now memetic culture has done something truly extraordinary and made Star Wars relevant again through the reversal of the moral interpretation of Anakin.
Star Wars is already dead as a franchise, and it is amazing to think that its only path back to relevance might be to embrace a point of view morally opposed to that of the original films, yet astonishingly relevant to the core themes of their stories.

The collapse of Reddit will be studied.
After reporting earnings, its stock collapsed 30% in a single day.
It's down 44% in 2 weeks.
But the most important detail is what was revealed in that earnings call.
The CEO said AI is killing Google search.
People no longer get sent to Reddit from Google. They merely get their answers from the AI Mode itself.
Even Google confirmed this themselves with their disastrous results - AI mode is cannibalising their search business.
Pretty soon, no one will visit Reddit voluntarily. Its traffic will continue to crater.
The worst part?
Reddit isn't alone. There are millions of companies and publishers that rely on search traffic.
That's what happens when you rely on a single funnel for discovery.

As a former climate activist who played a part in pushing plastic straw bans, I’m so sorry!
A new study from South Korea found that plastic straws are overall better for the environment than paper straws. So the soggy straws and all the head aches were for nothing.

The layoffs will continue until video games improve
Don’t Nod, the studio behind the original Life is Strange, is collapsing.
The French developer is facing a near-total layoff, up to 85 jobs, which would leave its French teams with only a small number of employees.
The studio has struggled with a string of underperforming releases, the most recently the sci-fi adventure Aphelion.
Don’t Nod has warned that it may not have enough funding to continue operating beyond January 31, 2027, and has entered a French “safeguard” procedure to restructure its finances.

🚨 I AM ACTUALLY IN SHOCK RIGHT NOW!
For the FIRST TIME in my life, I strongly agree with Wab Kinew.
He just called on Mark Carney to ABOLISH THE INDIAN ACT.
His argument? Canada should no longer have a race-based form of identification.
EVERY CANADIAN DESERVES EQUAL DIGNITY AND RESPECT.
Never thought I’d say this, but Kinew has started a conversation Canada desperately needs to have.
