Endless Legend 2 is the first time I have felt like a game is a successor to Alpha Centari.

In recent years, the media has quietly begun to change the way in which it writes about Bobby Kotick, the former CEO of Activision Blizzard. PMG investigates how Kotick used the threat of defamation to reshape his legacy in the games business, one article at a time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKwp...

Bluesky should go back to invites, continue aggressive bot bans, create a Craigslist-style marketplace (since you’re more likely to buy/get services from a educated or good person on here than any other social network), and market this place like a walled garden protected from enshittification.

Garffeld
Three panel comic of an homage to the first Garfield strip, but Jon is a monk and Garfield is a medieval rendering of a cat. In the first panel, Jon says, “HWÆT, LAM JON ARBUCKLE. I AM A MONK, AND THIS MY CATTE, GARFFELD.” In the second panel, Garffeld is thinking, “ HWÆT, I AM GARFFELD. I AM A CATTE, AND THIS IS MY MONK, JON.” In the last panel, Jon says, “OUR ONLY THOUGHT IS TO GLORIFY GOD.” Garffeld thinks, “FEDE ME.”

Future dystopian sci-fi has imagined things like nuclear wastelands, sure. Totalitarian oppression, climate catastrophe, sure. But rarely has it imagined today's real horror of AI making stupid and annoying people 100x worse.

Netrunner: The Cyberpunk Card Game That Survived It All
Netrunner isn't just a cyberpunk espionage card game; it's a real-life “hack” by a group of fans. After being abandoned by industry giants, its community keeps it alive for free.

Here’s my full video on Day 5 of the Ken Sim and Sean Orr saga. A bit of today’s news, a bit of historical context to the story, a bit of answering @seanorr.bsky.social’s challenge to me earlier this week. I *think* the story will recede now, but given the weirdness of it all, we’ll see!

I followed this guide a month ago. I made the additional step of switching to Linux. In addition to the moral benefits, I discovered that my new services and software are "quieter." They are less distracting, work better for my needs and are less annoying. It has improved my life.

Ken Sim won’t be defeated by posts, polls, or prayers. He’ll be defeated in a vote. That takes conviction in a single progressive candidate who can unify this city. (1/3)

Corporate leaders are obsessing over GDP per capita. But, if you look at just about any number that would meaningfully tell you how well our economy is doing, Canada does better than the U.S. @mendelmatt.bsky.social @jimstanford.bsky.social #alwayscanada #never51 #gdp #cdnpoli #cdnecon

In one of the strangest chapters of my life, I spent several months in the trenches of Big Headlight, looking to understand just how and why headlights became brighter than the sun. Answers, graphs, penis sketches—it's all here, on the brand new Ringer site: www.theringer.com/2024/12/03/t...

I've been cooking up SO MUCH for the new Root expansion we are launching tomorrow.

A drawing of an anthropomorphic chickadee and bat, exchanging money for service. Two sets of bat eyes look on from the background.  A drawing of an anthropomorphic frog, smile and holding a walking stick and sword.

The idea that you should challenge yourself with bad art or the idiotic opinions of liars/bigots is one of the classic Dumb Nerd concepts. Walking through life completely without any values, picking up little contrarian power-ups to grow your heterodoxy score and never learning anything interesting.

@maklelan.bsky.social I'm finding it hard to learn about church fathers like Papius without associating them strongly in my mind with the kind of people you debunk on tic tok. Just saying...whatever they want.
