  • It's the only visual novel I've ever played, but it excels so much at it. The writing, worldbuilding, characters, narrator, and overall "vibe" are fantastically superb. It's also another one of those games that I can't help but play for ~5 hours nearly every day until I finish it. I'm no video game connoisseur, so you can find more sophisticated reviews elsewhere. You can pick it up on GOG for like €10 half of the time.

  • Stop Killing Games is facing a complaint in the EU that uses nonsense logic to accuse the movement's founder of failing to disclose financial contributions he never made: 'It's not paranoia if they re

    Jump

  • In short:

    The complaint accuses the initiative of "systemic concealment of major contribution," violating EU stipulations requiring citizens to report any sponsor contributions over €500.

    The complaint cites PC Gamer's interview with Scott from June, in which he said "there have been many weeks on the campaign where I've been working 12 to 14 hours a day to keep things moving to get signatures." That promotional work, the complaint argues, amounts to "€63,000-147,000 in professional contribution" if he'd charged a "market rate" of "€50-75/hour."

    It's also not how the EU's disclosure requirements work. As Scott notes in the video, the EU's citizens' initiative rules say that "individuals providing non-financial support, such as volunteering, are not considered sponsors under the ECI Regulation and do not need to be reported."

    If the petition heads to the Commission after its petition deadline on July 31, we can expect to see even more exciting rhetorical maneuvers.

    I sure hope that the EU can withstand these 4D chess 900 IQ rhetorical maneuvers.

  • Well, today I had a fit of nostalgia for the old Internet without algorithms and moderation and I want to ask you, do you remember this?

    Jump

  • No, I'm not old enough for that, and anyone else younger than me certainly never will be. I only ever hear of the good old days from posts like these, but from what I gather, at least some of that magic can be found here, which is why I'll never leave this place. "Conventional" social media never appealed to me at all, with all of the "trends" and "influencers" and whatnot. Reddit was what had caught my affection, until the APIpocalypse, which sent me right here. Whatever it was in the past that I didn't get to experience then, I feel like I'm experiencing it now, in one way or another.

  • That's certainly the truth and I agree with you fully, but I just wanted to remind people that not being on the web all the time/terminally online might make you feel a bit better. I believe that some people might be so far up Plato's cave (read: Zuck's rectum) that they simply might not understand how the technology that they use is actively hostile to them. Your words will land much better on people who have noticed that they are indeed living in the midst of shit, and I think that regularly going outside is the first step of that.

  • Go outside. Touch some grass. Leave your phone at home. Do this every day. There's still an entire world out there, with far more pleasant surprises than you might assume or could even imagine. You can do this. The internet can be a wonderful resource when not abused, but it is in and of itself not a way of life. It may bring you entertainment and knowledge, but only using it won't bring you the joy and satisfaction that you desire in your life. That will be found elsewhere, oftentimes beyond the screen. Don't listen to those fat snakes in Silicon Valley that peddle their Facebook/Tinder/LinkedIn but for horses as the one and only way to achieve and get ahead in life these days. They only want you to believe that so that you will get hooked on their ad-revenue machine. You can live your life to the fullest just fine without them.
