@Cyberdragunz @ballmatthew @shinobi602 This guy gets it.

@KrisVeils_ @ballmatthew @shinobi602 Love all the replies here defending plastering everything with ads to force you to pay more to not have ads. Can tell the average age of twitter users is too young to remember the time before the adpocalypse on youtube.

Xbox is floating the idea of in-game ads, noting that may have potential to "keep our products affordable". Goal is to ensure they can 'continue to fund outstanding work' from dev teams More ➡️ windowscentral.com/gaming/xbox/oh…

@ballmatthew @shinobi602 Ok? And where the hell would you put ads that gamers won't absolutely lose their shit over? Home screen? Forced as a game loads? Some stupid side bar? Here's the deal. Gamers will go where their money goes further. Especially if its without ads i.e. Steam. But go ahead. FAFO.

This is not correct: • In the interview, I am asked about a comment I made before being hired at XBOX, then state that I was only 10 days into the role, and that I am not stating the company's plans or beliefs • What I do say is that ads should be used to offer more affordable alternatives alongside today's ad-free experiences, in the hopes more could play as a result. Similar to how Netflix and Disney+ have ad-tiers with all the same content, but at half the price or so • At no point do I even mention in-game ads (I personally believe interrupting the gameplay experience would be bad)

@Pirat_Nation It's still going to be a buggy, vibe-coded mess. Good to see Windows panicking though. Shows how threatened they are by SteamOS.

Good news for Windows 11 gamers: Microsoft is quietly working on a major internal plan called “K2” to slash bloat, boost performance, and make the OS seriously competitive with SteamOS. >SteamOS is now the official benchmark, Microsoft wants Windows 11 to deliver identical (or better) gaming performance on the exact same hardware >Dramatically lower idle RAM usage and a much lighter overall OS footprint >Heavy cuts to AI clutter and pre-installed junk >Completely rebuilt Start menu, reportedly up to 60% faster >A ton of other under-the-hood tweaks (faster File Explorer, snappier UI, fewer background processes, etc.) The changes are probably due to make Windows look better on Project Helix and future handheld/Xbox PC hardware. It finally feels like Microsoft is listening people, can’t believe it

@OfficialPCMR I had all updates turned off, used tools from github to wipe all bloatware and turn off all telemetry and manually disable updates. Windows complied for about 2 months before it force updated itself randomly. Fucking clown OS.

Is Windows 11 forcing you to do things you didn't plan too?

Amazing LOTR tattoo. 😱

@nihiofkdi @Pirat_Nation Its a good step in the right direction, to be sure

@KrisVeils_ @Pirat_Nation At least it shows the marketing failed. Everyone hates the thing they put money and effort into trying to make everyone like.

Microsoft is quietly removing the Copilot branding from Windows 11, starting with built-in apps like Notepad and Snipping Tool. The AI features themselves aren't being deleted just the Copilot logos, icons, and labels are being toned down or removed to make the experience less "in-your-face." via windowslatest

@shine_gomiseifu The entire western world could be like this if we all just agreed

うんこがいない‼️ みんな楽しそう‼️‼️

@AyakaMods I can't even make a facebook, it just immediately tells me my account was flagged and has no option to appeal at all. No prior bans. Just perma-blocked from ever creating another profile, even with ID verification, no reason given. Meta is a joke.

🚨 FACEBOOK ZERO SUPPORT EXPOSED 🚨 Facebook AI flat-out rejected my username change to AyakaMods. When I tried to appeal it said: You have no eligible admined Pages. I literally admin the page. Tried 5 times over a few months, so still nothing. No live chat, no email, no human agents. Just a useless & broken appeal form that goes nowhere. Worse than X support. Facebook is same robot energy as Google & YouTube, full AI automation, zero accountability.

@Pirat_Nation So we're just back to early cable tv. Got it.

YouTube is reportedlytesting unskippable ads up to 90 seconds long on smart TVs and streaming devices. • Up to 90-second ad breaks • No skip option • Designed mainly for TV viewing • Fewer, but longer ad interruptions • Higher ad revenue focus They want more users to pay for Premium

@nightmaremperor Problem is, now that Palantir is involved, the whole platform is permanently contaminated. Just because there is now public backlash, doesn’t mean they’re going to stop. They will just redirect focus and be more careful to hide their intentions in the future.

Discord has two weeks left to back track on their age verification BS and stop kissing Peter Thiel's ass. They need to realize that doing age verification isn't gonna make Discord more money. Keep the cancelation of Nitro subscriptions going.

@OtakuEspiritu It's not difficult to just click "not interested" when anything undesirable pops up. The algorithm, for all its issues, is actually good at learning and curating. Of all my time on this platform, on multiple accounts, ive never once seen straight up p*rn. Dude just got caught.

Just like to note this guy deleted this tweet! As someone who goons on here, I don't see porn, so for you to see porn on here, you'd have to seek it out damn hard. The irony of you always attacking people over it, yet you're the biggest porn degen, is the funniest shit. But then your whole career has been a joke, so no shock.

@AskFareeha Hope you enjoy nuking your own career with this stunt.

Much love, Overwatch community and T4❤️‍🔥🔥🪭

Never capitulate to woke retards.

@Siegburn1995 @Grummz I'll agree that I think eventually AI voices will take a lot of voice acting roles, when AI gets better, but right now they are still not viable, and I still would personally prefer to have a real voice actor when possible.

@KrisVeils_ @Grummz —el rumor de que habrá otra huelga porque los desarrolladores están presionando para usar IA Por lo menos aquí la IA tiene futuro ya que usará talento real y no la voz de cualquier fracasado que ni hablar puede

Chinese fans are PISSED that Blizzard caved. The Voice Actor who demanded the change calls them bots and incels. China is having NONE of this "beauty standards are harmful" BS.

@Siegburn1995 @Grummz AI voices sound too flat and lack proper emotion tonality. And there's plenty of good english voice actors out there, but companies are hiring based on stupid liberal politics instead of talent.

@KrisVeils_ @Grummz Mejor es usar IA Las voces en inglés son horrendas y suenan igual todas

No. Quit capitulating to insane leftist activists. Let them have their meltdown and move on. You see the numbers Overwatch just started to gain again? You think that's because you all decided to bend the knee to woke idiots? No, it's because you finally started listening to your players. For the first time in years. Don't fuck this up. Keep the character design. The only people asking for this, are the ones who won't even play the game. Better yet, fire that shit voice actress, cut ties completely, issue an apology to the community for her behavior, and have someone else record the voice lines who will actually appreciate the character THEY WERE LUCKY ENOUGH TO BE HIRED TO VOICE. READ THE ROOM, BLIZZARD. YOUR PLAYERS ARE DONE WITH WOKE GARBAGE. GET IT THE FUCK TOGETHER.

@discord_support Yea, nah. No one fucking trusts you. But thanks for clarifying that you already spy on us. Guess I’ll be deleting Discord and moving onto a different platform that respects user privacy. Discord becoming publicly traded was the worst thing you all chose to do.

Discord will soon be expanding teen safety protections worldwide including teen-by-default settings and age assurance designed to create safer experiences for teens. We’re also launching recruitment for Discord's first Teen Council, creating a space for teen voices to help shape our safety and wellbeing work. Applications are now open for US teens ages 13–17. Learn more about these updates here: dis.gd/teen-safety

@ChibiReviews They feel entitled now because too many companies and public facing people have capitulated to their insanity. Its pretty pathetic how someone can look at attractive fictional characters and feel "threatened" to the point of having a libtard shit-fit.

What is with troglodytes and fearing a woman being pretty within media Its happening in all forms of our entertainment. Anime, manga, games, and movies. Literally the other day we have people reading a Manga with over 1000 chapters happy to censor a character design
