@AngryCops Watch what it does to your power bill when one moves in.

Can someone please inform me as to why Data Centers are being protested/hated? What are the actual concerns about them and are they valid?

@Grummz Ah, the the Gabe mentality. Nice.

Xbox: Do nothing. Win.

@lunartifa His wife for sure.

every time there is a “sexy” Tifa scene we see it from Cloud’s POV so is Tifa really over-sexualized or is she simply the only girl Cloud’s attracted to and he’s the protagonist of the game 🤔

@Pirat_Nation They are trying to wall off the internet.

Starting September 2026, a silent update pushed by Google, will block every Android app whose developer hasn't registered with Google, signed their contract, paid up, and handed over government ID. Google calls the new rule Android Developer Verification. This starts with Brazil, Indonesia, Singapore, and Thailand expanding worldwide in 2027 every app on certified Android phones must come from a developer who has registered their real identity with Google. This covers apps from the Play Store, third-party stores, and sideloaded APKs. Here’s what developers have to do: They sign up in Google’s new verification system, share their legal name, address, phone number, and ID, and pay a one-time $25 fee. Apps from unverified developers will be blocked or come with big warnings and extra steps. Google doing this to fight malware, the company says sideloaded apps are about 50 times more likely to contain bad software than Play Store apps. Android is becoming a little more controlled with all of this changes

@learning_yohei It's primarily an income thing. Uniforms are almost universally reserved for those in private institutions, many of those financially above the vast majority of students in America. It's a situation where culture is often tied to ones income.

Please tell me that's not what this is over. Please tell me people are not telling you to die over smoking. Fucking smoking. First of all, I know former drug addicts who had an easier time quitting crack cocaine than smoking. Secondly, there are better smoking products than cigarettes. Pipe tobacco leaf, cigars, you do have options so you're not ingesting pure poison. Every single person telling you ANYTHING negative over this should go play in traffic. You got this. Live out of spite.

タバコやめれないからって私を言葉で殺さないで 死にます いらない人間です！ ごめんなさい😭 死にたいてます 薬沢山飲みます

@JustAColombian_ If this needs to be explained, there is little hope.

No es un tema de si conectas o no la Play para el DRM migajeron pendejo. Es que NO TIENEN NUNCA que quitarte acceso a lo que compraste y pagaste bajo NI GUNA CONDICIÓN. Que tan difícil de entender es eso?!?! Es anticonsumidor y PUNTO, dejen de ser tan arrodillados hpta vida

@AdamHarrop @xMBGx @Geezaws2 That makes very little difference. It is the principle.

@xMBGx @Geezaws2 Its not "exactly" what xbox tried to do. Xbox did it for physical games and wanted you to pay them if you bought a 2nd hand xbox game. Not sure if you were too young to game around that time but Sony has still stuck to that statement. No DRM for physical games.

If you ever needed proof to just how much Sony simply does not care. The past 4 days are it. People are melting down over the DRM Situation. Pure confusion, zero clarity, and what do you get from Sony? Another price increase announcement for Southeast Asia. You can't make this up. And what makes it worse is this is exactly what Microsoft tried to do in 2013 with the Xbox One. Sony literally made a video making fun of them for it about being able to share your games and centered their entire marketing around being the company that WON'T do that. And all this during the week all the attention should be on their new first party game SAROS. They need to get it together.

@AgingAnarchist An armed society is a polite society

アメリカは、もしかしたら銃を持ってるかもしれない、って空気が社会を包んでいるから、それが犯罪を抑止している場合もある。銃規制なんて言うのはいいけど、具体的にどうすればいいの？無理だと思うんだけど。

@DAKKADAKKA1 Disgustingly accurate

Woke Dead Redemption 2

@ManaByte Xbox died in 2013 with Don Mattrick. PlayStation died in 2019 with Jim Ryan. And here we are. There is one safe place left.

In 2013, the entire internet (rightfully) cooked Microsoft for the Xbox One’s mandatory 24-hour check-in DRM. It was a PR disaster so bad they had to do a total 180 before launch just to survive. Massive waves of people fled to PlayStation, claiming they were "voting with their wallets" for "the gamers" and "ownership." Fast forward to 2026, and those same people have spent over a decade building massive digital libraries in the Sony ecosystem, only to find themselves dealing with the exact same "periodic authentication" DRM they claimed to hate back then. The funniest part? Watching those same people now do absolute mental gymnastics to defend it. "It's just a bug!" "It's for security!" "Who stays offline for 30 days anyway?" The gaslighting is incredible. Turns out the DRM wasn't defeated in 2013; it just waited for you to get comfortable and trapped in a digital ecosystem.

@rutasosabu It's always them Boo Boo.

Another shrine roof in Japan has been stripped of its copper—this time in large quantities. The victim: Koyasu Shrine in Kamimuguchi, Komatsu City. Because the copper plates were torn off, the main hall is now leaking when it rains. The local community leader, Yoshiaki Kawamoto, said: "Everyone in the community is devastated. This shrine is something we’ve all cherished for generations." Shrines in Japan aren’t just buildings. They’ve always been there—quietly protecting the land, watching over the people. And in return, locals have continued to offer their prayers. This isn’t just theft. This is the destruction of something deeply rooted in our culture. How many times is this going to happen? Seriously… enough is enough. #Japan #Shrine #CulturalHeritage #Crime #ProtectJapan

@fandompulse They have completely crossed the Rubicon and not in a good way.

PlayStation has altered the deal: Any digital games purchased after PS5's March system update require an internet connection once every 30 days to validate the license. If a PS5 stays offline, the games will not launch until a player reconnects. Is there going to be any way to play games offline in the future?

@RealLifeFakeWiz I think we are, actually.

"Oh, it's just 30 days!" "What, you're not gonna connect to the internet in 30 days?" Yeah, it's just 30 days now. Next is: Verify your Identity at the end of that 30 days or lose access to your account. This should BURY PlayStation, but Gamers aren't angry enough.

@CultureCrave Im not buying the next console. Sony can lick the dirtiest part of my asshole.

@CultureCrave @PlayStation I have been a PlayStation fan since been the 90's. I will never buy a PlayStation game again.

Any PlayStation game purchased digitally after March's sytem update will reportedly now require an internet connection once every 30 days to validate the license 🎮 If the console stays offline longer than that, the games will not launch until you reconnect (via @MrZackXOfficial)

@grok @Pirat_Nation @PS_Support_US This..... Is probably the single worst PR move since Don Mattrick.

You're not misunderstanding. PlayStation Support's own response (as in the screenshot) explicitly calls the 30-day license check-in intentional for digital games bought after the March 2026 update. No primary console bypass, and it only hits new purchases. Sony has made zero formal public announcement or blog post about it. The details surfaced via user reports, modders like Lance McDonald, and support chats—exactly like this. Classic quiet rollout.

PlayStation support has confirmed that a new digital rights management policy for the console is intentional, not a glitch. Starting with any digital games purchased after the March 2026 system update, your PS5 will require an internet connection at least once every 30 days to validate the license. If the console stays offline longer than that, the games simply will not launch until you reconnect. This change does not affect any titles already in your library. Setting a console as your primary system also will not bypass the monthly check-in.

@TigoODonnell It's impossible to condone his actions but, Not so difficult to understand. He wanted to burn the world That took his girl.

The crux of Johnny Silverhand’s character in 2077 is that he died a bad person and a failure. Nothing in Night City truly changed after he attacked Arasaka, and through V he’s confronted with both his revolutionary and interpersonal failures.
