If you ever wondered why visible light is those particular wavelengths, it's because life evolved to see in the narrow range where water is transparent

WipEout was released 31 years ago. Since the game is set in 2052, we're already more than halfway there. 😁 A technical gem, this Psygnosis game made a huge splash on the PS1 (and other platforms). Especially with its electro soundtrack and in-game branding & artworks by The Designers Republic.

I played two demos today. The first was The Hollowing, a horror flight-sim set in a megastructure, where you are task with flying to various points across a vast expanse of spooky nothingness. I liked it a lot, though it is quite short. It's by the creator of Lorn's Lure, which I also enjoyed a lot.

The best part of being an artist is that you can just draw whatever dumb idea comes to your head at 1am

A scene parodying the Neon Genesis Evangelion scene of Asuka and her Eva unit getting pierced by the spear of longinus. In this scene, Linguini and Remy from Pixar's Ratatouille take the place of the EVA unit and Asuka respectively. Linguinis eye is pierced by a fork version of the spear and Remy is depicted in an inset where he is grabbing his eye and screaming like the anime. There are anime subtitles at the bottom that say "AHHHHHHHHH!"

"They're not misunderstanding the film; they're co-opting a message"

Screencap from the interview linked in the quoted post

Marlow Stern (the interviewer): You have one of the most renowned replies in Twitter history. Elon Musk tweeted out, “Take the red pill,” then Ivanka Trump enthusiastically wrote, “Taken!” to him, and then you replied, “Fuck both of you.” I’m curious how you feel about the co-opting of “The Matrix” by those on the right who don’t really seem to understand its messaging.

Lilly Wachowski: I mean, I can’t sit in a room and explain the movie to every single person who watches it. Even if I did sit in a room with Elon Musk and Ivanka Trump — yikes — it doesn’t matter. They’re not misunderstanding the film; they’re co-opting a message. And that’s what fascists do: They co-opt the messages of progressives and use it to their benefit to confuse and obfuscate what is going on and the intention of their ideology. They do it with everything. They do it with Martin Luther King Jr. Look at how they’ve changed the idea of what antisemitism is.

This. So much of modern video game discourse is eternally stuck in 2012... People desperately need GTA VI to be the biggest game ever because they have nothing to say about what's actually been popular in the last decade or so. They can't process that they're a niche now, they must be the standard.

“Nobody is losing control of an emerging intelligence. They’re redirecting their own agency to the thing they are building.” It’s a myth, a self-affirming form of sense making: they take the action to build it, but insist on describing it as if they are passive witnesses to an inevitable force.

this is VERY PRELIMINARY, and not statistically robust, but early analysis concludes that, in 2018, when DUSK was released, the average year boomer shooters were throwing back to was late 1996, where, today, the average year is approaching 2000

scatter plot showing release year on the x axis and year thrown-back to on the y, with increasing numbers of games going from 2012 to now, and with an expanding range of years thrown-back to that nudges a red trendline upwards
