Sounds like most of the issue here is Twitter? Get the fuck off of Twitter. Why would anyone ever care what anyone on Twitter thinks about ANYTHING?

Civilization 7 only requires one hand using a mouse, which includes the Switch 2.

Hi Masturbation. I’m reading comprehension-challenged.

Yeah this will work…

Enshittification will keep happening under capitalism, that’s a feature of the system. You can try to regulate it with strong government, but that is a pipe-dream and not a permanent solution in the US. The cards are too stacked against reform at the moment. (Would need to abolish the Electoral College, equal voting rights, remove gerrymandering, implement strict campaign financing laws, remove lobbying, etc.)

It’s almost like they don’t know what they’re doing.

The article is a PR puff piece. What Andy said made absolutely zero sense at the time, and even more so now. “…tables have completely turned.” Sir, the table is round and covered in shit. Always has been.

Bill Belichick became a game developer!

The creator of Zig is a dope dude, one of the best Killer Queen players to have played the game.

The billionaires have won, we are not getting the implementation of AI that helps us the most until we FIGHT the class war.

They are fucking losers, saved you a click.

I am exercising my 2nd amendment rights, purchasing multiple firearms for multiple purposes and have signed up for classes at a local range. I’m with you, but acknowledge that this part of it feels like a lonely endeavor.

The only viable solution when Nazis take control of government is violence. There is no reasoning with them, they are not logical.

Let them die.

I took a shit, it’s growing sentient and could surpass almost all humans at almost anything by 2027.

Keeping it brief but drilling down a level deeper, enshittification results in an increase in short-term profits which is a positive for publicly traded companies who are legally obligated to increase profits or risk litigation by shareholders. The vast majority of consumers, once in an “ecosystem” of a product (social media is a great example here) will not leave the ecosystem due to the mild inconvenience of leaving. The profit lost by the very few who have the wherewithal to leave the ecosystem is made up for by those short term profit gains.

It’s a cycle that continues on and on, sometimes saved by vast changes by the company to reel in those “lost” consumers. Or sometimes the company messes up so bad that they never return to their pre-enshittification days.

As long as companies have a duty to shareholders to increase profits at all costs, we will always see enshittification. This is a feature, not a bug, of capitalism.

Enshittification is a result of capitalism…in which venture capital plays a huge part. So…

That’s fair, it’s important in some ways to conceal the hand a bit. We have to make to make the rich as uncomfortable as we are though.

We did prioritize non-violent ones, and this is where it got us. The ONLY option is violence.
