If Bill Gates get involved in a scandal, is it now called a Billgate?
We really need to stop affixing -gate on to every conspiracy and scandal.

Isn't Gomez Addams constantly looking for ways to not be in possession of so much money? (I mean, that is a pro move, if I ever saw one.)

ICE Employees Vent on Reddit, Saying They're Not Getting Paid and Still No Insurance Despite Promises
Perhaps this is the right time to teach ICE Agents that this is the perfect time to use one simple M word...
A very precious M word... an M word that tyrants fear...
Mutiny.

Destiny 2 is dead: "active development" ends next month after one final update, but Bungie says the MMO will still be "playable"

via Proton. Per the ProtonDB, it's "borked". The Anti-Cheat is overly zealous and modern day corpos at Bungie are the kind that think all Linux users just wanna hack.

United Kingdom says Microsoft, Adobe, Google, Cisco will run experiments in a small city rebranded ‘tech town’. They will apply AI to schools, hospitals and businesses
A 'tech town' just sounds like 'company town' with extra steps.

This. It's based on AI Halucinations based off of previous trends. MS's roadmap does not have W12 listed at all.

Wish he was still around
I grew up on Mister Rogers Neighborhood. Loved it as much as I loved watching Arthur. There are some days I wish PBS was still airing the Neighborhood and some days I wish he were still alive... but... that torch is with us now. He truly believed in his religion... and it shows.
We are the next generation to be that beacon of kindness to those younger than us.

Discord Alternatives, Ranked
Reply in thread
The older terminology, which is still used in the API, was a lot better.
It was Guild. It was a Discord Guild. Probably because Stanislav was working on it after he abandoned Guildwork.

And Microsoft stole it from a different developer, who posted it back in 2011... and then ran it through Copilot without even checking it thoroughly before adding it to training documentation.

Elon Musk is digging a car tunnel under Nashville, Tennessee to reduce traffic jams. Local officials are worried.
How's the Vegas Loop handling traffic again?
Oh, right... it's a taxi service through a tube underground between the airport and the convention center... not very usable by all.

Kobo ereaders are integrating with Goodreads alternative StoryGraph
Reply in thread
It's through Overdrive, a service that lends books to library patrons. Overdrive's current interface for mobile devices and browsers is known as Libby. At one point in time, both Kobo and Overdrive was owned by the same company.
Note, libraries only offer a small selection - the selection mine offers is a lot different from the library up the street from me. It's all curated from organization to organization.
Edit: Overdrive also operates Kanopy, a library video streaming app; as well as Sora, an K-12 reading app.

Game Music is as viable as top charting music. After all, a lot of Sega's early aural identity was informed by the popular music in Japan. A lot of game music is cinematic enough that MPR's "YourClassical" curates it into its own internet radio channel with notable movie scores, called "Pixel and Plot". Hell, a good chunk of the amateur remixing community cuts its teeth on OCReMixes.
