Yeah it seems like all forms of authority are working towards complete control of all things digital. Control of information media like print and broadcast are already established, control of the information flow of the internet is inevitable.

Its already well underway, not just in China and Russia. I think most splits will be enforced by governments but maybe splits on a technology level could deepen if e.g. more people move towards Tor, etc.

    The Eldenring and Silksong communities' collective mental health deteriorating bottomlessly up to the release date announcements will forever be one of my favourite parts of internet history.

    I loved Dark Siders 2, it got me into Action RPGs! Didn't like how the combat and movement felt in DS1 and DS3 has been collecting dust in my library for ages but I'm so happy that the franchise is staying alive and I guess thats my sign to finally play DS3 before 4 releases.

    When we experience and maybe survive the next mass extinction, its going to be vastly more difficult to reindustrialize / redigitalize even if knowledge persists because we've already extracted the most easily accessible materials from the earth and extracting resources is becoming increasingly difficult.

    If you know how to build a battery but you cant build the machines to get the lithium, you just cant build a battery. But I suppose over time we'd find better ways to recycle.

    The worst painless feeling I've had was after a nose surgery. Pulling the massive tampons out felt my head being ripped off but that wasnt too bad. It was getting some soaked cloth shoved back up towards my brain that made me see the light for a few moments.
