This is the very soft launch of our nameless indie games & music studio (early adopters welcome!) scheduled for 2026.

Our aim is to post about the art & craft of (human-made!) games & songs.

I am overwhelmingly happy to hear this. But gosh we could all wish this ruling came much earlier.

And rounding out today’s clown circus show of software infrastructure hacks, and geniuses asking pwetty puweeze AI don’t do anything bad and be really clever to avoid hacks, we get our daily dose of enshittification.

"CEO said a thing!" #journalism involves parroting the claims of a business leader or executive with absolutely no context, correction, or challenge whatsoever, no matter how elaborate the delusion."

This contributes significantly to the unhealthy hype cycle we're vertigo-ing in.

"CEO Said A Thing!" Journalism

"CEO said a thing!" journalism involves parroting the claims of a business leader or executive with absolutely no context, correction, or challenge whatsoever, no matter how elaborate the delusion.

The Fine Print*

@firefox, the “last privacy-respecting browser” now nags you with in-browser pop-ups to let AI generate “key points” when you long-press links.

Mozilla CEO: “AI should always be a choice – something people can easily turn off”

Then why the fuck is it off by default? Why the fuck am I getting pop-ups asking me to try features I didn’t ask for? That’s not a choice. That’s opt-out with a fucking marketing budget.

What the fuck happened to you, Mozilla.

They spent WEEKS in damage control promising an "AI kill switch" and then shipped it fucking disabled. That is the most gaslit UX I have ever seen in my life.

"Help me @librewolf - you're my only hope."

Settings > AI Controls > Block AI enhancements. Do it now, because they won't do it for you.

Edit: a few corrections thanks to @Feyd:

“Hover over links”

  • It’s a long-press / context menu action, not a passive hover. That’s a meaningful distinction because hover implies it’s happening constantly without intent, which is way more invasive than what’s actually happening.

“Sending page content to ML models”

  • the default link preview (before you enable key points) just reads the Open Graph meta tags – the same og:title / og:description metadata that generates link cards in Slack, Discord, iMessage, etc. That’s not AI, that’s just HTML parsing.
  • even when you DO opt into the AI key points feature, it runs a local on-device model, not shipping your page content off to some cloud endpoint.

Railway is an infrastructure platform where you can provision infrastructure, develop with that infrastructure locally, and then deploy to the cloud.

I feel I overpaid for Buckaroo Banzai on bluray so it had better be the most astonishing, life-changing experience anyone has ever had.
