It's so much fun seeing all the PC games we can play on mobile now. It's really a shame titles like CupHead or Hades haven't gotten good Android ports, but they play great through emulation.

I just dont understand the demos they show off in these AI pitches. Apple making it sound REVOLUTIONARY that there's now VISUAL INTELLIGENCE!!!

"Hey Siri, will these boots I own fit in my backpack I also own, with both sitting right in front of me?"

I keep hoping that humans aren't so ruthlessly stupid that they can figure out how to pick up a pair of boots and try putting them INSIDE a backpack, but maybe I'm wrong to believe in humanity... Maybe I gotta let that faith and hope die...

I think it's fun seeing more options for wireless headphones and earbuds, especially new open audio for folks who want to hear what's happening around them.
Well, there's open and then there's REALLY OPEN. Jlab opted for the later!

Couldn't find the dog yesterday and he apparently missed Lex and had run off to hide in my daughter's room. He's a little punk of a scruff, but he's a sweet little scruff.

Huh. PR rep reached out about a sponsored video on my channel, but offered a rate WELL below what I charge. Their counter-offer was they could send me a SECOND unit of their product (MSRP well below my rate) and I can RUN A CONTEST with it, which would give them more exposure.
I can do three times the work for a small percentage of my rate!

Seeing pals of mine sharing obvious rage bait from larger influencers, and acting like they're "calling those influencers out". Really you're just enriching them and advertising FOR THEM for free, so they'll keep making rage bait.

The only winning move is to block and ignore them.

Instead of "calling out" hack influencers, imagine what social media would be like if you shared a video you really liked and contributed to your hobby EVERY TIME you saw bad bait surging in popularity.

Like this banger from Hugh Jeffreys.

Well that and all the AI gurus that were "committing" to buying up all the RAM (without actually puttin money down on anything) aren't getting the investor funding or bank loans they need, so now half of all data center projects in the USA are stalling, and they're now not ACTUALLY buying up all the RAM like they promised they would.
If the RAM manufacturers want to keep supply low to jack up the speculative price on RAM, hopefully the market corrections bite them in the ass hard.

all good points, and my original comment shouldn't be taken as any kind of open or uncritical view of f-droid, but more in the spirit that Google is looking to police everyone else while they cant seem to get their own house in order.
I guess I would question which potential vector for attack has the potential to cause greater harm. Installing from APK's found on sites like f-droid (and others) or installing apps from Google Play?
I genuinely dont know, since I cant get legit usage stats from f-droid, but this most recent malware issue on Play clocked over 2 million downloads.

OpenAI isn't getting the money they want from investors, is killing the Sora video generating app, and is set to almost double their human workforce, is billions in the red again this year, while banks and other large companies are scaling back on data center investments.

Can we NOW admit that massive data center cloud AI was never going to be a sustainable business model?

Game devs that would make a good effort to port to android could often get double purchases out of me. Balatro, dead cells, baba is you, alien isolation, a lot of games I've bought twice to support good work.
However, emulation has gotten SO good recently, I'm probably not going to be as charitable. Especially if an android port lags behind a PC release.

2026-03-19T17:05:59Z

From 2022 to today, Meta has laid off around 23,000 employees. Meta is considering another 15,000 layoffs over the next year.
Meta could have paid every one of those 38,000 laid off employees ONE MILLION DOLLARS to do literally nothing, and they would only have spent about half what they've burned on The Metaverse.
