Court: Krafton is corrupt, entirely in the wrong, and must rehire UWE leaders.
Subnautica Subreddit: UWE leaders bad! Something something bad court!

Yeah, corporate astrlturfing definitely isn't a huge problem that Reddit has. /s I don't understand why anyone uses Reddit, almost all subs are turfed to hell and back. It's more likely for a sub to be turfed than not at this point. It's very Dead Internet.

Digg lays off staff and pulls app from stores

​In about 30 years, it’ll be released—featuring an Indiana Jones fully reconstructed from 40 terabytes of archival footage.

​The plot is peak recursion: an AI generates code for Harrison Ford's digital twin to battle a rogue algorithm in virtual pixelated jungles. Pure digital cyberpunk wrapped in a "cassette futurism" and Cold War aesthetic:
​"Soviet scientists in a secret bunker under Magadan accidentally awakened an ancient Sumerian algorithm trapped within copper circuits. This proto-AI doesn't just want to conquer the world, it wants to rewrite history by purging everything chaotic and illogical... namely, the USSR."

​In the end, Indiana defeats the virus by simply pulling the plug. A digital silence falls over the world, while the 2056 audience pays for their tickets in crypto-yuan, fully aware that the film itself was created by the very AI the hero was fighting on screen.

Quite convinced the "dead Internet theory" is real.

X is a million subtle variations of the same right-wing message, while Threads is the exact same thing but for the left.

Increasingly feels like Bluesky and Mastodon are the only places with at least some actual humans left.
