  • I wonder if you could do it like the aggregation apps that used to exist for like…FB, Twitter, Instagram, where you can access/post from multiple accounts. My big thing is I hate having a dozen apps that do the same thing; so having an aggregator app is nice. For people who want the singular account, you could see both Bsky and Mastodon. For people like yourself, you could log in to both accounts and have separate feeds, just homed on the same app. And I imagine it’d be nicer, because Activity Pub would be the base, and it could display different UIs based on what information is being pulled, so it isn’t just like a Twitter feed on FB. You could get the Lemmy view on Lemmy, Twitter view on Bsky/Mastodon, Instagram on PixelFed, etc.


  • I think a lot of it is that it’s direction was a bit different. Halo was built on basically immortal Master Chief. Reach had Spartan 3s, which weren’t as “Master Chief”-y, and we see every one of em die on screen as part of the story. That is a pretty stark contrast to Chief never dying. Additionally, if IIRC, the multiplayer was meh, and multiplayer was a huuuuge deal at that time. The story was great (even despite what people said about it at the time) but the multiplayer didn’t carry the game, so it was generally a “play the story, go back to Halo 3” kinda game.

    My perspective on it, tho.






  • Fair, but I do think it is deeper. His current ties to the administration have some current implications, but even prior to that, the amount he received with govt contracts and his habit of over-promising and under-delivering make me skeptical that the upwards trajectory can largely be blamed on retail investors. His cult of personality certainly is a portion of it, but I don’t think it would just be that.

    I’m also just a stupid person bitching on the internet, though, so give me thoughts whatever weight you’d prefer lmao.








  • There is some kind of shady deal going on, I bet. 0 reason why Tesla is worth more than like the next 12 biggest auto makers combined. The argument previously is that they’re a tech company with FSD, but that has become increasingly untrue as the years, missed targets, failed upgrades, and lack of implementation continue to pile up. Add-on Cyber Truck failures and Musk basically abandoning Tesla to play Govt Undertaker, and the company itself looks worse positioned than at any point in time.
