I didn't misrepresent anything in my recent Stop Killing Games article.
I reproduced the UK Gov statement, and then gave my own short comment, which boils down to: I don't think it's going to work to change the law, and think it's a good idea for people to look to other games and for stores to clearly note if a game requires an online connection.
Literally no misrepresentation there at all, I didn't even comment on the petition details itself. As usual, people like to make crap up.

I'm having a hard time understanding what is going on with the Kerrygold #Cooperative. It doesn't seem like a demutualization event, but people are getting big payouts? Kerry Group and the dairy co-op are splitting up and the big company is buying back its shares from the co-op, so that's where the cash is coming from? But non-dairy producing co-op members are also getting cashed out? Do you understand @ntnsndr

This video asks some very interesting questions about political resistance. However, it lacks a historical understanding of all the times when popular resistance did work. And yes, we do have to revist moments of resistance, because oppressors do not magically disappear when a just cause succeeds. Some oppressors will reform--most definitely. Many will go underground. Australia ended up with a number of unsavoury white South Africans after apartheid was ended.
Nevertheless, it's good to see what may be going through people's minds.

"Thinkers like Jean-Paul Sartre and Hannah Arendt warned us that the point of this deluge is not to persuade, but to overwhelm and paralyze our capacity to act. More recently, researchers have found that the viral outrage disseminated on social media in response to these ridiculous claims actually reduces the effectiveness of collective action.
The result is a media environment that keeps us in a state of debilitating fear and anger, endlessly reacting to our oppressors instead of organizing against them."

@richdevine I might be taking out of my unqualified arse here, but I suspect a large part of it has to do with the recent move away from fixed or heavily pre-baked environments where much of the load could be pre calculated anf shared between tiers, to more real time calculations like global illumination or grass physics.
Granted Wild's performance to be suffering terrible in PB1, I have to check PB2 though.
