Have I played “Control Resonant”? Sorry…I’m too busy reading the story of a man who “Controls Rocinante”…that’s right, Miguel Cervantes’ immortal tale “Don Quixote de La Mancha”. So you enjoy your strange “Federal Bureau”…I’ll be delighting in the adventures of Sancho Panza and his “Friendly Burro”

this game has truly gone off the rails (as I'd hoped)

a screenshot of Subterfuge. You can see the overlapping sentry ranges across the upper-left corner. At the top of the screenshot is Serenity, held by Olive (Joe). It has 355 subs on it. Directly south of it is El-Farolito, occupied by Beige (Nick motherfucking Capozzoli) who is streaming a maddening series of attacks, 6 subs at a time, almost precisely 10 minutes apart.

And, as a delightful bit of whimsy in this unhinged tableau, we have a single driller departing Serenity to another outpost. It has been renamed by Joe to have the laughing while crying emoji as its moniker, which appears below it in the game.

It feels as though perhaps, in this hellish intertwining of undersea violence, one soul has found freedom, peace, and perhaps a little joy (at least until it dies upon the shields of Nautilus).

Me: Subterfuge isn't that complicated. Average Subterfuge game:

Subterfuge map looking like a red string conspiracy pinboard, just an absolute spider's web of submarines launches crisscrossing between Pink and Sky.

Something very cool and normal about corporate law is that even a written record of you saying "I am aware we are commiting a crime here" won't land you in prison.

1) This is correct. 2) Videogames can handle hater takes. Important part of the ecosystem. 3) Even if you disagree with the take, massive loser energy to whine about it on social media. Go ahead and write "In defense of the self-playing game." 1,500 words minimum. Put up or shut up.

All information being forcibly degraded into chatbot summaries collides with our ongoing literacy crisis to deliver an unimaginable lack of understanding, new frontiers in talking past each other. A reverse Tower of Babel where we speak the same language but unattach all shared meaning from it.

One thing I love about Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg is that they're not afraid to slap a big "funded by taxpayer money" sticker on indie games about the concept of loss (finding an apartment in Berlin)

Too many people in this space ultimately only care about their ability to play games. Their entire ideology is based on the premise that games are some right accorded to them. When that's your most core belief, nothing serious can be built on top of it.

The number of quote tweets crowing and cheering about this is nauseating. Workers lost their jobs! The bosses are still there! Why does that make you happy? Capital counts on you to be petty and small-minded and vindictive towards strangers instead of having a scrap of solidarity for the worker.

The corporate state is underplayed in the definition of fascism. The distinctive promise of fascism is to discipline labor (and thereby eliminate the leftist threat) by uniting the government, industry, and the church to subdue it.

My guess is that the percentage of Americans who are aware that we are blockading and immiserating a neighboring country is in the single digits. Its not an invasion, but involves the use of American military force with the intent of collapsing the government.

Even if Microsoft wasn't subject to a boycott by the BDS movement, it's kind of embarrassing to dickride a company that has done as much damage to the games industry as Microsoft has. All that consolidation, M&A—only to conduct mass layoffs at its new acquisitions within a year. It's fuckin gross

From new Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar's acceptance speech tonight. This is the absolute BARE MINIMUM platform for any Democrat running for President in 2028.

A series of posts from journalist Mark Chadbourn reporting on the acceptance speech of Péter Magyar after Hungarian elections:

Péter Magyar: "Our country wants to live again. It wants to be a European country again."

Mark Chadbourn• @chadbourn.bsky.social • 24m
Magyar's speech is powered. From a contact in the audience: "He's basically just asked all the puppets, all the supreme justices, all the heads of media, all the heads of the ministries to leave their jobs tomorrow and not wait to be fired."

•..
Mark Chadbourn• @chadbourn.bsky.social • 22m
He's announced that Hungary will join the European Prosecution Office so anyone in the country can be charged.

Mark Chadbourn• @chadbourn.bsky.social • 21m
Magyar: "No mercy, they will need to take responsibility for all their actions."

...
Mark Chadbourn• @chadbourn.bsky.social • 20m
Magyar says he's starting work with the EU and NATO immediately.
"The EU doesn't have to worry anymore."
