Not that I would ever recommend lying to an authority but lots of pharmacies in the UK are willing to give you a free Covid / flu jab if you say you live with an immunocompromised person even if you have no proof of it

I think what’s so weird about this is that it’s all very well saying Iran was involved in it, but there is as yet absolutely no clarity on what ‘it’ was, or even what ‘it’ was *attempting* to be. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Each of the characters the player will meet in Muziris belongs to a faction – and gossip in Muziris spreads fast, so our actions in one mission could affect our reputation with people elsewhere. Balancing the needs and interests of quarreling factions will not be easy. #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev

funny to me that last year taylor lorenz was privately trying to suggest i was being funded by peter thiel after we got into an argument over her shitty takes, and now she’s literally running cover for him saying being evil is good. quite a journey she’s on.

Taylor Lorenz: "Listening to this whole interview and these comments in context you see he is actually making a pretty nuanced point. You can criticize him all u want but taking clips out of context to manufacture outrage is so lame— critique what he actually said!"

I had ME/CFS in the mid 2010s (and was extremely fortunate to recover from it). It's disheartening to read that folks are still being told to get over it and/or exercise; I sought alternative advice and so stopped going to the gym, which helped. I hope that we can soon ID & treat it properly. 💜

It is so mentally corrosive to try to ascertain, every day, whether the images I am seeing or the texts I am getting or the phone calls I am receiving are real - produced by a human who is trying to communicate something with me, even indirectly. It makes me feel insane and paranoid all the time

Bless their soul but who is going to listen? I want to break it to them how long we've been warning about these cults funded by unlimited amounts of money being behind these companies which themselves claimed to be created for "AI safety" 🙄 AND how the press has been doing stenography for so long.

We've reached the point where, after 25y in cybersecurity, I feel morally obligated to say this for the record:

The narrative being pushed around AI safety, sandbox incidents, and the suggestion that METR be treated as an authority is dangerous, deceptive, and morally corrupt.

Obviously having your game erroneously banned for daring to suggest that adults sometimes have sex is an absolute nightmare. Particularly the week before launch! But...I have to admit that playing a vampire in a game deemed "too sexy for Steam" might be the coolest I've ever been.

pcgamer.com

Upcoming vampire RPG Nighthawks has been removed from Steam search and delisted in certain countries as Valve classifies it Adults Only: 'It's very bad news for us'

The label "immediately makes the game persona non grata in several important countries like Germany".

We are aware that Steam has classified Nighthawks as an adult game and has excluded it from searches (and delisted it entirely in certain countries). We are working on it. Valve is under the impression that this game is way sexier than it actually is.

A helpful key here for understanding what wingnuttery is and how it works, here. I 100% guarantee you this did not happen and that the boys she’s talking about - she later clarified they were “Pakistani” - do not exist. And yet, I can also assure you Eve is *absolutely convinced* she saw this.

On 9/11, school was dismissed at noon. My mother came to collect me because the school bus wasn't running. We went home and watched the television all day and all night. The next day I returned to school. Everyone was sad except a certain group of young boys in the corner of my form class. They were celebrating like it was the greatest day of their lives. I will never forget.

This situation reminds me a bit of filmmakers like Scorsese being unable to get funding from the studios anymore, because the people they'd worked with in the past are gone and for the folks who are there now, it's purely a numbers game.

For many, the news was surprising. Kojima and PlayStation have had a long relationship, with the Metal Gear Solid franchise calling the console its main home for decades. And when Kojima and MGS publisher Konami parted ways in a messy, public split in 2015, it was PlayStation that swooped in to provide the famous game designer with funding for his next game, which would end up being Death Stranding. But Bloomberg reports that many of the PlayStation executives who had developed a close relationship with Kojima over the years are no longer at the company. Seemingly, those who remain don’t see investing in Kojima’s next big game as a valuable move.

Our Art Director, @pormaro.bsky.social, shares her thoughts on the relatable elements of All Will Rise. With so many personalities in the game, there’s no doubt you’ve met someone just like our characters. #IndieDev #GameDev #IndieGame

I think art imitates life and that's exactly what happens with our game, we can all be like Kuyili at times, we all know a personality like Shabeer and we most certainly have all dealt with an oblivious privileged person like Rishabh.
