Bronze plaque saying "A Letter to the Future. Ok is the first Icelandic glacier to lose its status as a glacier. In the next 200 years all our glaciers are expected to follow the same path. This monument is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it. August 2019. 415ppm CO2"

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

Esto es flipante. Seis jueces y tres fiscales del Tribunal de la Haya que buscan juzgar a Netanyahu están sufriendo una persecución que ha eliminado su vida digital, convirtiendo su día a día en una pesadilla.
La UE, por supuesto, a por uvas.

Anyway I hadn't heard anyone talking about this, so I guess I'm gonna talk about it. Spread the word if you're thinking about doing an nsfw KS project, Stripe apparently might pull your funding at literally any step of the process, with zero warning!

Rude Rude or impolite, including crude language and disrespectful comments, without constructive purpose. Highlighted Off, darkened Warn, and darkened Hide buttons.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

If you're sad you missed my "GameDev Lessons From Reading Jane Austen" talk, make sure to come to Bonus Stage every month, you never know when I might be up in the stage!

Oh my god some fucking tech dingdong posted this on Twitter with the caption "AI games are going to be amazing" totally seriously, you have to watch it. You have to. In full screen.

New York's Richest Ask 'how Dare He?' as Mamdani Closes In on City Hall The city's 1% realize their influence is waning: It's hard to be chill and relaxed'

It was just after finishing a set of pelvic floor exercises that a Pilates instructor on the Upper East Side recently brought up one of the least popular men in the neighborhood: New York City mayoral front-runner Zohran Mamdani,. All of a sudden the class, which costs $50 a pop, became something of a political confab. In between sets, some women strategized about helping former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who they see as more palatable, pull off an upset. Others gushed about a recent New York Post cover depicting Gov. Kathy Hochul, who had recently endorsed Mamdani, as a devotee of Mao Zedong.

New York's richest residents can't stop talking about Mamdani, the Democratic nominee. To many of the city's uber-wealthy, his sustained popularity has been a shock. The 33-year-old, self. described Democratic Socialist is the overwhelming favorite to win City Hall next month, on a platform that includes free buses and free child care--programs that, the moneyed are well aware, somebody needs to shell out for. "I hope Mamdani is going to give out free Xanax," said Caroline Leventhal, a lifelong Upper East sider who co-founded 'Mic'd and Medicated," a podcast that dissects the lifestyle of cosmetic surgeries and private ski instructors. "It's hard to be chill and relaxed."

It's worth reiterating that independent creators are getting debanked for the same content

I hate it that in the comments for the original post there's someone who made the same joke with the exact same quote but 12 hours earlier.

First lines from Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice: "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife."

Grok is this true

The Dawn of the Monsters DLC not only adds an Arcade Mode, but also combining-style mecha Meteor Temujin for all your kaiju-crushing needs! It (as well as the base game) is currently 65% off on Humble! https://bit.ly/DOTMDLC_HB

Look, I'm not saying it is wrong in any way (and the game looks fun), but I am pretty tired of seeing the same 30-something guy making a game that's basically a mix of the same 3 of his favourite NES games...

Indie games can offer so much more than that

Bethesda deletes Indiana Jones and the Great Circle "fascist" clip after accusations that it mocks Charlie Kirk Bethesda's now-deleted X post appears to have been part of a wider social media push for the new Indiana Jones and the Great Circle DLC.

The hypocrisy of making a game about fighting fascists, then deleting a tweet against fascists the second that fascists start to cry about it (because it reminds them of that guy who was definitely not a fascist).

It’s a lose/lose situation when studios cave to these people because the ones raising a stink were never gonna buy your game and the audience who actually wants to buy your game sees you siding with said concern trolls.

I wish I was kidding.

See you tonight!

I just saw a comment that said "I don't support what happened to Charlie, but Charlie supported what happened to Charlie."

THAT ... that's what I've been trying to put into words.

Last month was my 12th Canadiversary. And it was a special one for me, because it marks having lived a third of my life in Toronto now.

It's been the most exciting adventure, accompanied by the most amazing people, and I can't wait to see how the story continues.
