Actually given so much of blacksmithing was just making horseshoes and nails over and over I guess repeatedly making the word Box kind of is a comparable experience

Sometimes you play word games for a language puzzle, but sometimes the ultimate form of the English language is a word that you've already played that consists of three gold letters and at least one B and X. Then filter hard for those and ride them to the end. Truly, I am a wordsmith.

Got Birdigo in the Steam sale and it's very funny to have a Balatro-ified word game because I just had a successful run where I started playing the word "Box" over and over

I can't imagine anything more insane than trying to pitch to me the idea that your imaginary character cares about a cartoonishly ugly mobile game that wasn't even worth properly building in the first place

First it was youtube ads of fake games that looked like dogshit. Then the ads had streamer types to "react" to them inside of the ads, as if playing these games was desirable. Now the content of these ads is AI generated, including the "streamers" and I never understood who would want any of it.

My ideal scenario is that with things being reworked we get back 5-strong Berzerker squads without losing the 20s

This is the level where general audiences would be more inclined to hop back on board, make it for them, make something fun and fresh, and let the nerds scream at each other in the online discourse nightmare (they'll be doing this anyway)

I know that Star Wars fatigue is very real among those of us who care/try to keep up but in my heart of hearts I just think that the series has gotten in its own way over the past few years and this could easily be the best next move.

At least this means they have an in-built limit of 10 flags

@SoliSolstice

what blows my mind about everybody neglecting human experiences in favor of being on their phone 14 hours a day is that like 95% of you suck at being on the phone. can’t post for shit, 100 unread wikipedia articles in your tabs, getting groomed on discord. you are not good at it

If people like Coxon want to be seen more as whistleblowers and less as clowns then they should consider behaving less clownishly

GDR states never really caught back up with the West, and as in other parts of the world the inequality has sharpened which feeds the appeal of populism.

This isn't the focus by any means but I hope my friends know that actually I am always down for your absurd chats at 11pm if you need. Even leave all the AI issues to one side, we should be there for one another and make it known.

The Maccas drive through guy while handling me breakfast referred to it as "eggy, bacey, two hashy" and I just don't know that that's on

I like to think of this as the 'Swedish boob guy fetish' effect, because of that one guy who got his fake studies about breast sizes laundered into the mainstream media with fake academic journals that first got picked up by fringe websites, then worked their way up the food chain

Wrenclouds @wrenclouds.bsky.social · 21/08/2026
I can't imagine a world where I get any value out of AI because I value my inputs and outputs and check my own work anyway. Adding another random chance of things just going askew for no good reason isn't appealing.

Replacing "traditional" Google search (something they're already trying to kill off anyway and have been for years) has nothing to do with quality/success and everything to do with a series of ever more forceful offerings and most people not feeling strongly enough to opt out.

This isn't to say that you should never apologise. Do so early and often. But saying that it would dissolve or disarm criticism on mass just isn't true

Wrenclouds @wrenclouds.bsky.social · 18/08/2026
It comes I suppose from waves of disingenuous internet discourse but whenever I hear the framing of "they just have to apologise and it will fix <issue>" it activates my fight or flight

Having spent time figuring it out I now love the straight to Vegas early game, gambling at the Wrangler and getting the implant to raise INT from 9 to 10 before hitting level 2

In essence the legislation that allows them more power to gather personal information also binds them more firmly in how it can be used. Other government agencies this isn't as true of, because the pieces of privacy legislation isn't as strict as the Census & Statistics Act.

Wrenclouds @wrenclouds.bsky.social · 11/08/2026
I guess everything in this world is transient, but Australian governments to date have all respected the law and Trump/Elon associations are extremely toxic with the Australian electorate. Given the ABS is still bound by the law they literally can't release identifiable information, even to gov't.

Wrenclouds @wrenclouds.bsky.social · 11/08/2026
Again the best source for this in relation to #AusCensus / #Census2026 is the ABS website, which touches on the explicit legal liabilities and links to the legislation: www.abs.gov.au/about/legisl...
abs.gov.au
Privacy, confidentiality and security of Census data

Wrenclouds @wrenclouds.bsky.social · 11/08/2026
This is an exciting part of this Census, but some people understandably worry how information is used. It's worth knowing data collected by the ABS under the legislation is handled differently from other gov't data, and cannot legally be released in an identifiable way. bsky.app/profile/news...

I love Rambler mechanically, one of the absolute best, but had no idea it was literally just a man. How cool!

Highly suggest checking out Demon Bluff on steam which is basically an adapted singleplayer version as a very fun way to muck around with it, too.

Wrenclouds @wrenclouds.bsky.social · 11/08/2026
Will I get fined if I forget to do a Census? What about the hundreds of dollars a day? Breathe and relax - the fines are if you have been served a formal direction to complete and continue refusing! Allow me to reference the ABS' own website - info.census.abs.gov.au/about/doing-...
If you do not complete and submit your form, we will contact you to encourage your participation first. If you still do not respond, you may be served a direction in writing to complete the Census. This is a formal legal instruction to complete the Census. 

Failing to comply with a direction is an offence under the Census and Statistics Act 1905. If you do not complete the Census when directed, you can be prosecuted and fined up to $364 a day. Knowingly providing false or misleading statements or information is also an offence and can result in a fine of up to $3,640

The ABS refuse to put themselves on Bluski so I declare myself a de facto point of advocacy for getting your Census done (preferably tonight but ASAP will do for anyone in the country!) #Census2026 #AusCensus

Not especially opposed to everyone is twelve now, just don't know that there's anything new or remarkable about having fondness for media that's pitched younger. See Bond movies/superheroes/star (wars|trek)/music that was cool when you were a kid/avatar/pokemon/warhammer/whatever.

I am forever a tenbluelinks evangelist, good to see the word already being spread. Very similar settings can achieve the same effect in Edge too, for those of us who have to use it at work.

Used to be able to comfortable resolve a game of TI3 in an evening by organising one through the ol' Wargames Club, meanwhile my friend group are convinced that it has to be 8 hours minimum and don't understand that it's their fault.

It is the 24th here and I have literally no qualifications, but I do have post-it notes and a dejected toy sitting near me while I work. I am prepared to be the floor of this thing that I never previously heard of.
Extremely crude 4 panel comic done in black pen on a post-it note

"The Incredible Spider-Man... toy that I won in a claw machine but who was rejected by my daughters"

Panel 1 - a Spider-Man toy with weird proportions lies inert on a desk

Panel 2 - slight zoom, the Spider-Man toy thinks "I get it tbh"

Panel 3 - now focused on his face, the toy thinks "I'd try to shove me back up the prize chute, too"

Panel 4 - Just "The End?" because I had already done my one joke

But of course, 3:10 is a fractional value in Excel and therefore presumably real life as well.
