Part of me is just absolutely terrified that today's news basically comes down to "Microsoft bought Activision-Blizzard, giving Kotick and cronies a fuckton of money, thanks to consistent sexual harassment claims dropping the stock far enough that there was an opening to acquire"

Just in case you didn't think Microsoft still desperately wants to be the only micro-computer soft-ware corporation in existence.

Also, fuck the perversion of old-as-dirt virtual worlds tech is calling a new "metaverse."

Also also, has MS ended its ICE contracts yet? twitter.com/Reuters/status/148

The "Rami, how many indies can you fund with the money involved here" is that you can fund 136.000 indie game projects at half a million dollars, or you can fund an estimated 390+ indie games such as Red Dead Redemption 2.

If you clicked on a link & someone stole your account that's not hacking, that's phishing.

If you accidentally posted a secret key somewhere & someone stole your account that's not hacking, that's being careless.

"Getting hacked" became this catch-all bogeyman term & I hate it

It’s been almost half a decade since I wrote my big piece on NESticle for @vice@twitter.com; it’s still generating follow-ups years later.

For @waypoint@twitter.com/@motherboard, I chat with a programmer who came up with a way to “liberate” SNESticle into a playable form.
