Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me πWeβre just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. Itβs been a roaring success. For every β¬1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got β¬1.46 back. Canβt argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."
Damn. This is amazing. Β£325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

They're both miles better than Sunshine.

It's nice if the game gracefully deals with that aspect ratio not matching the monitor's aspect ratio (e.g. by adding black pillars). It's not required that big monitor = more viewable game.

a digital painting showing the famous Hubble/James Webb image of the Pillars of Creation nebula, with its three tall fingers. the image has been heavily abstracted to be a collection of lines and polygons, and the colors have been saturated, such that it contains strong blues, yellows, and pinks. dots of stars can be seen throughout
Whipping out the Pillars of Creation again because it makes me happy

This is something I think about often. The declared Christian values of love, forgiveness, and mercy? those are *hard*! They require you to show vulnerability, to open yourself to the possibility that you may be hurt, to sacrifice so that others might be better off. No wonder they're unpopular.

Consciousness is one of those things that makes stoners go "whoah" but most people aren't conscious (in the "aware that they are thinking" sense) most of the time! We have other more important things to think about.
