Kind of ironic that an article about anonymity wanted me to provide my email address and remove anonymity in order to read it.

I love this so much because it’s so absolutely chaotic, but it’s also not too far off.

Hear me out!

You’re cooking Mac and cheese, and you put on some breadcrumbs or panko to give the dish some texture—cool, cool.

A knob of cream cheese, assuming you’re already having a mix of cheeses, that could give some creaminess to the mix and it doesn’t sound that bad—dare I say even potentially good?!

But the thought of a savory cheesecake with pasta in it is also just so revolting I can’t help but hate it. Visually even I think the robots did a great job here, and I still hate it.

Overall, love it. Whoever thought this up, kudos.

Can we actually enforce one of the previous lawsuits first please 🙏

I’m kind of conflicted about this. On one hand it’s dangerous that the public’s access to information is so tightly coupled to a single organizations decisions, and I can see the danger in Google making a change like this.

On the other hand, clickbait and SEO gaming has gone on so long that using a site like Google has become significantly less useful to actually finding information, and if a site like Kotakus traffic is down by 60% as a result—is that due to Google being dangerous, or Kotaku having a pile of garbage content meant to game the system and bring in traffic?

For what it’s worth I’m using Kotaku as an example because the article used Kotaku as an example—I have no actual opinion or evidence around the actual content on that particular site.

Sorry—my comment was in reference to this not being a new playbook since that’s exactly what the GOP did with hawking Kanye as a candidate. He would never win but maybe he would steal votes from the democrats.

So, Kanye for President 2.0?
