Why $15.50 when the same game is $20 on Steam? Because @itch.io takes a smaller share of the revenue, and we wanted to pass those savings on to the wonderful itchio users. We make about the same per unit!

Italians seem to love gen-AI images. The most beautiful towns are infested with them. Everywhere you look there's some Lovecraftian menu or slop postcard. Admittedly we kind of invented that aesthetic, so maybe it's a form of reclamation?

People are mad at Steam but Valve is being put in an awkward position. The EU has a framework and an open-source toolbox that will ideally provide proof-of-age without surveillance or the risk of data leaks. No need to deputize credit card companies. digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/factpages...

Update: even after we removed the entire sex quest, Steam mis-classifies Future? No Thanks! as pornography, making it invisible to most Steam users and completely geo-locked in Germany. We are currently at Gamescom in Cologne, everybody is asking us why they can't see the PAGE of a Teen rated game.

All these cute little Buddhas were decapitated by the Anglo-French (I thought you guys hated each other?) as a punitive act. They wanted silk and porcelain, but had nothing China wanted in return. So take the opium or we’ll smash all your nice things!

Today in Beijing I visited these classical-looking ruins. Except they are from a 18th century European-style palace that was looted and burned down by actual Europeans in 1860 as a reprisal for the emperor trying to stop opium from being smuggled by the British.
