The Dig (LucasArts) was released 30 years ago!

I love this game, considered graphically dated when it was released, but has aged so well. 👌

The Dig is still available on Steam and GOG, don't miss it!
An illustration for the box cover of the LucasArts graphic adventure video game THE DIG. The title, 'THE DIG,' is displayed in very large, gradient letters, shifting from yellow to blue, above a dark scene. Below, three astronaut silhouettes with backpacks are leaning over a mysterious yellow-green light emanating from the ground, beneath the text 'A DEEP SPACE ADVENTURE BY SEAN CLARK IN COLLABORATION WITH FILMMAKER STEVEN SPIELBERG.'

Looks like someone took our ball and ran with it, and continued with a fully portable C++ port of Second Reality - including a browser version!

Finally we can replace DOOM as "the thing you run on things"! 💪

One of the cartoons in my new book 'Physics for Cats' which is out now in the UK, USA, Canada, France and Germany. Order from your local bookshops or online: www.tomgauld.com/
Two beetles on a stick. One beetle says to the other "Do you ever get the feeling we are being observed by another lifeform" Zoom out to reveal that they are in a glass case with two scientists studying them. One scientist says to the other "Do you ever get the feeling we are being observed by another lifeform" Zoom out into space. Abouard a spaceship, two aliens watch the scientists on a screen. One alien says to the other "Do you ever get the feeling we are being observed by another lifeform" The aliens turn to look out at the reader. Text below the cartoon reads: From 'Physics for Cats' by Tom Gauld. Preorder it at www.tomgauld.

My latest cartoon for @newscientist.com
Panels one and two: Two white mice make their way through a maze. Panel three: Having completed the maze, the two mice are rewarded with some fruit. Two scientists watch them. One says: “Poor little things: all that thought and effort just to earn themselves a little treat.” The second scientist looks at a clock and says: “Coffee time!” Panels four and five: The two scientists make their way through a maze of corridors to a door marked “Canteen” Panel six: The scientists look at the food on offer. One says: “Ooh, Donuts!”

Skriver idag på DN Debatt om ett samhälle där trygghet ständigt används som argument för nya lagar som inskränker fri- och rättigheter.

När rättigheterna väl har inskränkts kommer det vara så gott som omöjligt att backa tillbaka till ett friare samhälle.

Läs gärna.

Danmark börjar prata om en exitstrategi från amerikanska molntjänster, Norge varnar på liknande sätt. I Sverige har kommuner blivit techjättarnas reklampelare för molntjänster.

Men nu kommer varningar, och myndigheter har börjat samordna sig för ”digital suveränitet”. www.dn.se/sverige/varn...
Varningen: ”Microsoft kan stänga ner Sverige”
Risk att Trump använder techjättarna som vapen för att påverka andra länder – fler varnar för dålig ”digital suveränitet”.
