Boo! Cult of the Lamb (which looks amazing) is out on iOS today... but it's not available as a standalone app and requires an Apple Arcade subscription to play. I'm so freaking sick of subscription services.

Thanks to Dead Cells and my new SCUF Nomad, I’m *finally* getting into iOS / mobile gaming. I can tell that Dead Cells will keep me entertained for a good long while, but I’d like to have some other options to try out when I’m travelling this month.

My latest monthly rewind is up! stephvee.ca/blog/rewinds... I wasn't able to add as much to my site this month as I would have liked, but any amount of time spent on the personal web is worth the effort, IMO.

AI companies like "our product will convince you to kill yourself, then monetize your spouse's grief with microtransactions while it also sexts with both them and your child. We lose billions of dollars a month btw"
And almost half the US stock market is now inextricably tied up in them.

Why am I not surprised? People who use this tech almost *always* use it to deceive.
Sora 2, Open AI’s new AI video generator, puts a watermark on every video. But the logo meant to help people distinguish between reality and AI-generated bullshit is easy to remove and there are half a dozen websites that will help anyone do it in a few minutes.

One of our cats sustained a minor injury recently and can’t really wear a cone comfortably due to the location of the injury. Cute sweaters work, though!

I've given my site an accessibility-focused refresh! One of the things I love about having an independent website again is that I have the freedom to design a space for *everyone*, and am not beholden to restrictive "customization" options of big platforms.
