This has been one of the craziest stories in gaming in a long while.

So does this mean that the old Unknown Worlds founders are back in as well?

I think that technology like Tailscale has sold me on the concept of on-internet intranets, as in subnets with extreme firewall policies that doesn't prevent you from accessing the broader net when necessary but gives network maintainers strict control on how their networks are bridged. I've been thinking about this to the degree that I've been trying to do more research into how this can be achieved with open source technologies like Headscale.

Ideally, you'd want to have a peer-to-peer relay server option for bridging multiple "trusted" networks which would then provide a broad DNS resolution to let you access services that are advertised for bridged networks. So it would be like if, via tailscale, I could connect to another person's tailnet using specific domain names if those services were exposed via a "bridge node", so to speak.

Tailscale themselves have no reason to implement this though; As a business, they would actually prefer you buy larger client counts. I don't blame them for this, it's the basis of their business. But I think, long term, multiple intranets will be really important for digital sovereignty for both smaller nation states and individuals. We can no longer trust the broad web as it was. The fediverse is the first step, the next is tighter meta-networks in tandem with federated internet services.

Can't read the whole article because of paywall.

But the implication that AI is a "good bubble" is pretty rich, as I think that the degree at which they're ripping people off left-right-and-center by stealing their information will become less palatable to the US government once it's clear that they caused the market to tumble. They're literally dependent on the idea that people think AI is "irreplaceable" to the daily lives of most people in order to withstand a crash in terms of political capital, which I think they're very far from establishing at this point.

I like the idea that they think that educated jobs only belong to women. That's an interesting thought.

The sad truth is that this shit isn't going to replace "highly educated" jobs, and that the AI gravy train will end once people start to enforce basic intellectual property enforcement. Time is ticking, and the market taking a hit now is making them scramble.

"This is an Xbox" now replaced with "Nothing is an Xbox." 😈

I always knew that the borg were Australians.

(I joke, Australians are lovely people)

Generally the US is very good about paying back its debts. However, under Trump this hasn't always been the case...

This is generally why the US bond market is so heavy in foreign investment, frankly.

If only I could have that type of weight while eating burgers or pizza. 😭

Ofcourse they'd employ trump's tactic of racking up costs and simply refusing to pay. I'd say the student learns from the master, but I'm not sure which one is which here.

That's the way people should be looking at it. It basically means hard crashes are extremely rare in the firefox ecosystem.

To be fair, I can't remember the last time a browser crashed on me in general.

To be fair to Cash for Clunkers, the intent was to get people on better gas efficiency cars, not to downgrade people to worse cars. California policy is the one that mandated cameras on newer cars, but also to be fair there it does reduce incidents of crashing during reverse.

I think Microsoft shouldn't really be making plans around windows based on the state of the government today and should be concerned with how it changes just 6 months from now.

Not sure how they could be confident in the idea of selling hardware to users right now, considering even the cost of thin clients is stupidly high.

Maybe there's something I'm missing here.
