This is a personal collection of things I find around the internet.

Alright, so somehow you found this place. Here's what to expect:

Posts will be random; there are absolutely no themes here.
Posts may be overwhelmingly frequent (sorry about your sub feed).
Posts may be unbearably infrequent; you may forget you subscribed here.
Posts may be oh, so very boring to you.

Due to the nature of this place, you may find a bunch of stuff that you don't care about, but you may also find a new passion.

So, the gist is, this is a place where I'll share random things, and you'll discover the internet with me.

Oh yeah, I didn't advertise this place anywhere, so hey, how did you even get here?

Check out the sister sub where you discover music with me! !andromusiccollection@lemm.ee

Microsoft’s purchase of Activision Blizzard may go ahead in the United States, as Judge Corley sees no danger of harming competition.

The issue here is simple. MS is not the market leader. They constantly lag behind all of its competitors in this market in sales and quality.

Instead of letting the market decide the winner, MS is opening up its wallet and purchasing the largest video game company in the US and EU to make sure that it’s more talented competition does not have access to any of those games past the current hardware generation.

They are using their massive amount of capital earned in unrelated businesses to do monopolistic business behavior. MS only got this passed because the US government is bought and paid for.
