My early impressions are certainly quite positive, I love how experimental it is and very willing to explore new gameplay styles. Certainly curious to see what the metascore ends up being, probably higher than Link’s Awakening HD?

I had a very interesting experience watching Network recently, a film from 1976 about the influence of television, and I had a strange realization that TV then was nearly as old as the internet is now. This just feels like a natural point in the history of a communications medium that people begin to think critically about its effect on people and the way we think.

I think about this all the time, I really could see myself getting into computer education ten years down the line.
What I would do is this:
There’s probably more I could come up with if I sat down to really plan out a week by week lesson plan, but this is off the cuff where I’d put the focus. So many of these topics have Connections-style related points. “Why is my computer at home different from a Raspberry Pi?” gives you a great opportunity to expand on CPU architecture, which leads to how computers actually “think”. I remember when I was a child one of the things that I was most confused by was how a computer was able to turn Python into something it actually understands, that can be a fascinating lesson in the right hands. How does a computer know where to look on the disc when it boots up? It’s great!
Kids already know how to use phones and tablets. Take concepts from those, concepts they are already familiar with, and then explain the deeper process behind it. Computers are engineered by people, you can understand them, it’s not magic.
I’ve been a big Bethesda fan for years, no one else makes games that quite come close to their very simulationist style. I like Starfield, and now that it’s a year after launch I have finally found my angle on it to get the enjoyment out of it that I wanted. I think it’s a good game.
But it’s also a flawed game, it’s clearly not for you, and that’s okay too.
I want to play either Skyrim or Breath of the Wild for the first time again, knowing nothing about what’s out there to be discovered or the limits of the sandbox. Those games cast a special spell in their first few dozen hours before you know where the boundaries of the world are.
I can recognize that I love the Star Wars prequels for bad reasons.
But also they’re still masterpieces actually.
Do vinyl records count? I really like that they make beautiful noise from a simple electromechanical process.
If the Play Store becomes required like that then Android’s already-shaky status as an open source base platform is going to go out the window. I’m glad there are non-Google distros of Android but there really needs to be more of a push to make a completely FOSS phone platform.
It was especially poignant for me because so much of the boy-girl bodyswap stuff was very trans coded.
I’ve never heard it to mean that
Oh by Threadiverse I’m referring to Lemmy/Mbin and their co-conspirators.
I’m trying to say that that movie got popular online years ago and is still associated strongly with internet piracy culture!
You’ve been on the internet for a while, yeah?

I use it for language learning, watching things repeatedly is very useful for picking up on new words and grammar!
I think Frieren is especially beautiful, like just look at this shot
The tech savvy will just buy a Raspberry Pi and install yunohost on it.
I do think a split keyboard design would serve a slate like this a bit better though.
Lemmy is definitely a more male space than I think even reddit was, and that does affect the tone of certain conversations. It really is a whiplash coming here from Mastodon sometimes and seeing a very different vibe.
