I love it when people are doing proper preservation of old things that don't usually get preserved. I've never heard of this and have no reason to personally care about it, but look at the love happening

bringing back a classic

an adaptation of the sandy loam chart, aka, a triangle where each side is an axis from 0 100, forming triangular little pockets in the center in a pseudo-3-axis chart form. the three axes are "hoinky sploinky" "doinky woinky" and "rinky dinky," each with a "pure" form (penis music, furret walk, and ukelele covers respectively). there is a minor screed here about electroswing sucking, which it does.

Just a reminder that earlier this year I played through and reviewed 45(?) games all starring boys with swords.
If you haven't gotten irrecoverably sick of reading about Zelda or Ys or anything similar, then consider giving this a sift.

Right wing billionaires are buying up the entire information environment. And now they are buying video game and voting machine companies.

Liberal Currents @liberalcurrents.com · 2d

“The problem with billionaires isn’t that they’re hoarding money that would otherwise pay for a Scandinavian social utopia. It’s that their money has become a source of wildly distorted political power that allows a few men with extremist views to wreak havoc on the rest of us.”

There is a brave knight within u ⚔️

A brave mole knight is standing on a molehill, sword and shield in hand. He is framed by a gothic stone frame and in the back, you can see a landscape reminiscent of the rennessance portraits. Underneath, on a piece of paper it says, "There is a brave knight within you", with a painting of a small sword below.

It's also not "just another" extinction, it's the first from mainland Europe in centuries. CENTURIES.

And there will be others within our lifetime.

That's biodiversity loss.

Well, it's official. After our paper last year (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....), the Slender-billed Curlew is officially declared Extinct today.

NEW: Nearly 100 current and former developers at MindsEye studio Build A Rocket Boy slam Leslie Benzies and the rest of studio leadership for poor management and botched layoffs.

They say crunch was mandated leading up to release only for 250 people to be sacked afterwards.

This is something I have been deeply involved in over the last few months. The behaviour of my former employer has been callous and despicable and they have to held accountable. If not only by the legal system, by the public they want to be buying their games!

It is offering $40-45/HR below it.

It is based in the UK.
