Curiously Critical

@WillJPowers And many more who are waiting for the price to come down.

I believe we might hit a new peak in an hour.

@jk_rowling Hoodies for all! It's purposefully designed to cover the head when needed. Not for accessories.

I fear this might be my most controversial take ever, but I agreed to put it to a vote so here we are. Hoodies should only be worn by men young enough not to look silly carrying a skateboard.

@visegrad24 Hypocrisy. How can he win the Pulitzer price? Is it because of his anti Trump cartoons? What happened with the Pulitzer price?

Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Darrin Bell, who frequently portrayed President Trump as a sex offender, was arrested and is accused of possession of child sex abuse videos. Bell was charged under a new law that criminalizes obtaining AI-generated sex abuse material.

@TaraBull And he calls other people pedophiles ...

Sacramento cartoonist Darrin Bell known for slandering President Trump as a s*xual predator and pedophıle in his cartoons, was CHARGED with possesion of 134 child p*rnographic videos. The 49-year-old, who built his career smearing others, now faces serious charges. You can't make this stuff up

@Jason @nytimes First source information is always better than second hand source from news, esp the obviously biased one

NYT proving my point… I invest in 100 amazing startups a year The @nytimes reporting is limited to anti-tech, anti-capitalism content only After 700 startup investments, their coverage is limited to political nonsense and negativity Meanwhile, every week I reach 5-10m folks across my podcasts, emails and social media. Founders: build your own following and go direct

@Protestia Whether it's true or not, such stigma doesn't come from a vacuum. Maybe it's proper to consider why ppl behave that way.

There's a large segment of professing Christians who will nod their heads knowingly and even give a hearty 'amen' when a man shares his testimony and reveals he was a drug addict who was addicted to porn before he found Christ, and yet scowl, purse their lips, and cross their arms when a woman says the same thing.

@KindredBlade Huh

Pearl Abyss CEO Huh Jin-young has made it clear that Crimson Desert will continue to receive new patches to improve the game. He also confirmed that there are no plans for a paid DLC, and they are prioritizing free updates. Huh also apologized for the poor storytelling. He also stated that there are no plans to add multiplayer immediately to add #CrimsonDesert. Source: n.news.naver.com/article/001/00…

@SenFettermanPA Totally lost it

Here in Philadelphia. Truly appalling. These assholes chanting for the death of our servicemembers. Where’s the Dem outrage and condemnation?

@visegrad24 Again the problem of migration? And the solution is assisted suicide? Why don't they ever address the root cause? Sad

Noelia Castillo Ramos was euthanised yesterday at around 6 p.m. local time at Hospital Residencia Sant Camil near Barcelona. In 2022, Noelia was placed in a state institution amid family difficulties. There, she was gang-raped by a group of North African migrants. The trauma broke Noelia. Months later, she attempted suicide by jumping from the fifth floor of a building. She survived the fall but was left paralysed. Instead of offering long-term support, the Spanish authorities offered assisted suicide as a solution. Yesterday, despite a large group of people showing up at the hospital to support her, Noelia sadly decided to end her life. Her rapists were never arrested and remain free men today. RIP Noelia. We will not forget you. 💔

@tintinpapa1 Japan is sending their military to defend the strait of Hormuz

ただ防衛費を上げますって言っても なかなか受け入れられないですよね... 「防衛のためにモビルスーツを配備します」 ってなったら 国民の多くの賛同を得られるはず！🤔 あっ、もちろんAIですよ... （サウンドオン推奨） From insta:maeda.kou.kindle.ai

@SirDustyDirks Why don't they sell it cheaper at Epic then?

Valve: 350 employees Epic Games: 4,000 employees Valve: $17B annual revenue
Epic Games: $5-6B Valve charges devs 30% of their revenue for simply listing their game. Epic Games charges devs 0% revenue share on the first $1,000,000 Valve is one of the greediest companies in gaming. You cannot be pro valve and be pro developer at the same time.

@deadtosin610 @ADFIntl Thanks, what they want to cover may it be broadcast to the whole world.

@ADFIntl Here’s the pamphlet the court said didn’t incite violence or hatred and wasn’t “particularly serious”… yet still led to Päivi Räsänen being found guilty of crimes against humanity. Sharing in protest of this ruling against Päivi Räsänen: media.lhfmissions.org/file/lhf-missi…

🚨BREAKING: Päivi Räsänen unanimously acquitted for her Bible tweet, but convicted of “hate speech” for a 20+ year-old church pamphlet The conviction is under the “war crimes and crimes against humanity” section of Finland’s criminal code, alongside Bishop Juhana Pohjola.

@ADFIntl Outrageous! May she receive justice due to her and may the world knows about this.

@MikeWingerii Interesting observation. Haha

Hey Sean, quick question. These double check marks seem to indicate that you have taken a screenshot of a message YOU sent, not one that was sent to you. Are you making stuff up?

@coldxman Nicely summed up

@carolyn_phippen @DataRepublican @mormonweg Hope to see more of this investigation and get to the bottom of it.

The Women’s Republican Club of Salt Lake hosted @DataRepublican last week, where she explained to us the infiltration by leftist activists into communities of faith throughout the US. She showed us massive activist funding of @mormonweg and their involvement in national orgs as part of a broader movement. Consequently, their supporters have been letting me know we’re misinformed, they’d love to answer questions, and their founder has even offered to take me to lunch for a chat. But every single one of them has disappeared when I’ve asked two very basic questions that are my starting point for discussion: 1. Is it true that Bill Kristol's Defending Democracy Together is among your biggest donors? What is the relation that Kristol has to LDS women? 2. Is it true that your co-executive director, Jen Thomas, regularly attends and presents at a meeting series, where MWEG is represented as part of a larger fractal ecosystem?

@DataRepublican Appreciate the effort. Let the light shine upon the dark corners of human schemes and manipulation.

🧵🚨 MAJOR BREAKING: THE 4-DAY MIRACLE, or How MWEG and a 500-Org Coalition Weaponized Charlie Kirk's Assassination 🚨 1,400 people. 20+ organizations. 3 professionally moderated panels. 4 days after an assassination. Does this sound organic to you? September 14, 2025 (a Sunday, no less) the "Dignity Over Violence" zoom goes live. The coalition's central resource was a website called turntoward[.]us registered by Mormon Women for Ethical Government (MWEG) ONE DAY after Charlie Kirk was shot dead at UVU. Registrant email: internal.support@mweg.org "Turn Toward." Now say "Turning Point." Did they name the campaign after the dead man's organization to advance their own political agenda? I'm going to reverse-engineer how you mobilize 20 NGOs in 4 days... because you CAN'T. Not unless the infrastructure was already built. I dare you, @mormonweg , to explain how these receipts are "absolutely false." As always, patience as I pull together the thread. 👇

@lx_amara How do you know Christ died for him?

I can feel nothing but sadness for this man. This is someone God loves, someone Christ died for. Yet the legacy he leaves is being responsible for creating and ubiquitizing such a demonic industry. He now must face his Creator and give an account for his life. All those billions are useless now. What shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul? My hope is that he somehow had a chance to truly repent and turn to Christ before he died.

@thomasmahler Kindly consider making 2 player local co-op split-screen mode like the one in It Takes Two. One of their stages (that has fire and ice mage) is very similar to NRftW setting and was very fun.

For some time now, I’ve been fascinated by FPGA hardware. While playing around with my Analogue3D a while back, I had this idea… I remember going to arcades in 1995/96 and, while early 3D games like Virtua Fighter and Tekken were the big technological leap, it was often the Metal Slug cabinet that had the crowd around it. That got me thinking: What if instead of chasing early 3D, one of the platform holders had built an absolute monster 2D machine? A console designed to push sprite art, parallax, animation, color, scaling and raster effects way beyond what SNES, Mega Drive or even Neo Geo could realistically do at home. So this weekend I wanted to test how far current AI models could go to help design and implement a complete FPGA console around that fantasy. And… the software layer is already done. Including an emulator for that machine. The hardware spec I ended up with: 100MHz RISC-V CPU 8MB system RAM 8MB shared VRAM Dedicated 2D PPU built for huge sprite counts, multiple BG layers, affine/raster effects and palettes ...and a modest 3D GPU because by that point some 3D would’ve been inevitable anyway. And to test the machine, of course we need some games. Since doom, quake, etc. are open source, that's the first thing I tried to port to this fantasy console 🤣 And since I'm a console child of the 90s, I AI'd quite some changes into those ports and supported modern controller layouts and up to 4 Player Splitscreen. Fun Project! 👍

@Grummz Wonder why these game journalists are still able to exist.

Notch is about to ratio PC Gamer so hard.
