They are Russian, so it’s probably a mix of vodka and amphetamines.

Do svidanya. Vodka soda.



For minigames as “games within the game” (e.g., GTA has a lot of these like pool, golf, etc.,) throw another one up for Witcher 3’s Gwent!

For minigames as representations of some other mechanic (e.g., hacking, lock picking,) I remember liking the hacking in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. Reminded me of hacking in EVE: Online.

Probe scanning was awesome in EVE too—at least…it was a decade or so ago. Who knows if it’s still the same now doe? Not me.


What does GC stand for?

Girthy Cocks maybe?
As a compliment, u noe?
Like saying they have Balls of Steel.


here’s a link to the script.

“MagicPussy” doesn’t sound that bad. 😏


Merry Christmas!

I’ll toss a hat in this ring for Borderlands 3.

I’ve heard good things.


Di$Unity

UnitEA. Monetize everything.


I have never seen a mobile device with this much free space inside.

Inspired by the AlphaSmart.


The fact that these decisions are coming down from the ex-CEO of EA Games . . . .

This guy speedrunning the enshittification game. Oceangate needs to build another sub, stat.


Google has me by the balls anyway.

GrapheneOS? Are you on a Pixel?




The ad is for a silk clothing store, located “next to fine arts college”.

Ah, makes a bit more sense now.


cost cutting at its finest.

For a “Fine Arts College” too. Couldn’t they have let some students do it?

Although … Maybe they were worried about the consequences of rejecting a painting.


What’s wrong with Squabbles? The UI looks neat and that’s about all I know

Around the beginning of July (and again in the middle of July), there were a lot of posts on r/redditalternatives promoting Squabbles. I’m not saying it was bots, but they had the odor—all newish users with the same name pattern, something like two diceware words and a four-digit number. E.g., Intrepid-Pangolin-4842.

And the posts had this exaggerated positivity, kind of like that terminal handing out affirmations in Demolition Man.

Then when I tried to use the site and give it a fair shake, I found that it felt like maybe a dozen real people and the rest were … I dunno, bots again? Lots of one-word or one-sentence replies that didn’t seem on topic at all? Very “Markovian Parallax.”

The site purports to be influenced by Twitter and Reddit, so maybe that’s part of the Twitter influence coming through (re: the shorter replies). I never really used Twitter/X, so I’m not sure.

Also I think there’s no NSFW, which seems to be a deal breaker for some.


I think if you are not logged in, the app scrapes Reddit instead of using API calls.


the shittyest one

Eh, that crown is probably better worn by Squabbles.


Sadly tildes is invite only it seems.

People parrot this as if getting a Tildes invite is like getting invited to join the Freemasons or something like that—it’s not that hard to get an invite.

And for those who are just going to lurk, you don’t even need to register to view everything.
