That cranky tech nerd you watched that one time...

If only we could get this on mobile game stores. Valve Bans Forced In-Game Ads From All Steam Titles https://kotaku.com/valve-steam-adverts-ads-ban-free-to-play-1851759164

Mobile gaming is the largest slice of the monetized pie now because of all the free garbage blasting ads, ratcheting up in-app purchases, and promoting gacha and gambling mechanics to kids.

I wish Valve were selling in the mobile space, and I hope Epic and others take similar steps when promoting mobile game stores. It wouldn't take much effort to cut a SIZABLE chunk of mobile gaming revenue out of Google and Apple's hands.

Hey. Maybe after the fight, Netflix can just mail us DVDs of the fight so we can actually see what happened.

Where the person using the @ Music account on #twitter had built up 11 million followers, and Musk wanted it, so he just took it away.

Even better, offered the owner replacement Twitter accounts that were actively being used. 🤦‍♂️

Twitter users can now hide their blue checkmark. Why would they want to though? Shouldn't they be PROUD of their "verification"?

Anyone got an ETA on a Firefox plugin that replaces hidden checkmarks? I'd expect we see something like that soon-ish...
