Ma théorie confirmée par l'exemple: ces deux œuvres s’adressent surtout aux femmes hétéros, attendries comme devant un chiot mouillé dès qu’un gay traverse le champ.

Pour vous donner un ordre de grandeur de la défaillance de la CNIL :
- En France, mettre sous surveillance l’intégralité de ses salarié·es par une caméra cachée : 100.000€, 2 ans d’instruction
- En Espagne, inviter un salarié à un groupe Whatsapi : 70.000€, 6 mois d’instruction

Praise for The Banished Vault almost always mentions the beauty of @garin.bsky.social 's art.

garin captured the tone of the game perfectly in their work: the interstellar-gothic design, the unforgiving beauty of space, and the plight of Exiles facing ever-slimming chances of survival.

Wow. This is an absolutely terrifying read. We now live in an age when a single company can, through what appears to be plain old bureaucracy, can more or less brick your entire digital life.

A few more from my ride on Saturday before I broke myself on Sunday.

Feeling quite emotional today - I'm already aware that my accident on Sunday is going to change my relationship with many places I love and it's likely to be a very long time before I regain the confidence to return to them.

La vraie victoire ?

Mon livre n'est pas caché quelque part au fin fond d'une section "informatique" que personne ne voit.

Il est enfin rangé au rayon Arts/Beaux-Arts, et il a même droit à un joli présentoir dans ma librairie de quartier 🥹

(Un détail pour vous, mais pour moi ça veut dire beaucoup)

L'email des impôts qui t'informe qu'il y a un message dans ta boite, pour te faire logguer dans ta boite, pour tomber sur un message "nous avons reçu votre message et traitons votre demande".

Sérieux.

To think that I had to wait 13 years in the Disney Star Wars era to see the announcement of two game designs that I was hoping to see again: action RPG and racing.

(Even then, while Galactic Racer is announced for 2026, Fate of the Old Republic isn't expected to be released for many years to come)
