*holds your face so fucking gently* please leave reviews for indie games. please. every single review legit counts, especially if the game is small enough, and you don't even gotta say much if that's the problem!!

like, anything from a long ramble to a simple 'it was good' matters, because steam (and probably also the Other Ones) uses an algorithm. so the more reviews, the more exposure, the more money the dev team gets. like, please. please. leave a review. throw your small indie dev team a bone

Reports that a #Belgium TV channel interrupted #Eurovision with a message about Israel’s genocide and repression of the free press.

“This is a union action. We condemn the human rights violations committed by Israel. Additionally, Israel is destroying press freedom. That is why we are pausing the broadcast for a moment. #CeaseFireNow #StopGenocide"

#Union action

@mos_8502 Oh, seems similar to the P620 in my workstation that way o:

This really should have an antisemitism warning 

@gavi @lucretia @yassie_j when people called them out on it, they also changed the number in question to... 1391. Yikes. The fascists running it have thrown out any pretense or doubt :/

This is anecdotal, but I now personally know two employees of #AI-related companies whose valuations have imploded within the past month, and they are now looking to bail. One company lost 73% of their (publicly traded) value in a month. The other one is a startup whose founder (according to my friend) has “finally snapped”, and the company is now in freefall.

It feels like the bubble is bursting right now.

I've received multiple reports of many Walmart locations clearing out Switch games (and others) in-store

YMMV, check your local stores

The universe is not transactional. You do not need to "earn" or "be worthy" of love and respect.

"Librarians are developing open-source alternatives to Libby and hoopla and testing "experiments with publishers that don't involve restrictive licenses," says Jennie Rose Halperin, director of Library Futures."

Fuck yeah!

@NovaSquirrel @VAdaPEGA no, sonic has always strived to maintain an E rating on its games and produce saturday morning TV for a reason

@copygirl for a slimegirl, those statements go from amusing to harrowing :blobcateyes:

David Tennant: “I remember gay rights being weaponised politically. That always felt ugly & nasty… 30 years later & those people are clearly on the wrong side of history. Now there is a similar weaponisation of these topics… to create friction & conflict & division where it needn’t be. It’s just about people being themselves. You don’t need to be bothered about it. F**k off & let people be”

For real, it's a shame to hear Tango is among the studio closures Microsoft announced today. The only cuts I wanted to hear from them were more deep cuts like the chair

If I had a nickel for every time another game referenced the plot chair from Xenogears, I'd have 10 cents. Which isn't much but it's weird that it's happened twice

@GoodNewsGreyShoes @FlyingTerra considering how many times I nearly drank my actual paint water cup... yeah probably

@ClarusPlusPlus I've been meaning to set up my bluetooth stack for my DS4 anyway since my USB cable's not holding a steady connection anymore, so this will be a good excuse

@ClarusPlusPlus it is a bluetooth device and IIRC it does have linux drivers, I can grab an adapter and check with mine later to be sure
