look i get that extinction is scary, but what's the alternative? solve our own math problems?
Xbox wants focus on core franchises. So first move is to gut a studio that reinvigorated one of gamings most iconic games 3 times *in a row*!? Games w/ fun and daring mechanical choices all while executing on art and technical aspects in ways most studios can only aspire to…

Dreamcast once again reigns supreme
Important updates:
News on physical discs for new games - play.st/4v86Wg3

Readers added context they thought people might want to know

OneDrive is a dumpster fire of a product. (Prompted by it deleting over 350GB of data from my PC i never asked it to touch)
In a move that should surprise few that know me, I've started a game studio with some talented friends. Say hello to Studio Slime!

a billionaire taunting a struggling public service with the support it needs as if it's all just a big joke. like a king promising food to a starving village but only if their mayor agrees to dance nude in the town square first. evil in the most cartoonist way.
Is iPad OS ever going to get a working calculator? It’s kind of hilarious (and frustrating) that it doesn’t have one.
I loved reading novels & watching movies and they brought me tremendous joy, but I had to stop doing both. The left me with little else than new perspectives on the world, though-provoking questions, enduring aesthetic beauty... show me the money!
Every time I encounter, "Were integrating AI into [tool I use]," I hear "We've introduced a random goblin that is going to fuck with your stuff in unpredictable/chaotic ways"
Is this the onion? (Context: he is the mayor)
One of our greatest priorities in Ottawa is affordable and supportive housing. That's why I'm running the marathon at @OttawaRaceWknd to raise money for Ottawa Salus. bit.ly/44qikHY

Life hack: give yourself 8 to 12 hours of alone time in the morning to mentally prepare for the day.
Been quiet lately, but if twitter rolls over and dies or everyone jumps ship I’m gonna be sad. Lot of really smart/talented folks who’s work I follow. I feel like it would be extremely difficult to follow them all again in some new manner
