If you've enjoyed Cryptmaster, please consider sharing the news. Despite an IGF award, a 95% Steam rating and a free demo, the game has gone mostly unnoticed by both press and players. It's not just a typing game and there may still be people out there who would enjoy it!

Today I learned LinkedIn sneakily added an on-by-default genAI training flag. www.linkedin.com/mypreference... should allow you to opt out. Gross.

Honestly, if this mass call out by indie devs & other creative folks because of bullshit corporations & their reliance on predatory takedown systems proves anything, it's that there's so many folks here are actually able to connect here & be heard We're angry together That's important

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

New Video Time! The #gameboy is damn popular for modern devs - and when I came across this pair of (relatively) recent shmups, I knew I had to go give them a spin. So here's my dive into Dangan GB2 & Lunar Lancer! www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wQD... #retrogaming

It is unconscionable that the government is introducing its social media ban legislation to parliament tomorrow without any expert or practitioner consultation or review - or even a clear definition of ‘social media’.

Having trouble remembering which axis is which? No problemo, just consult this handy guide!

Looking at plushies because plushies are nice, squishy and cute. I might have a situation where there are too many plushies at home.

Had some really good garlic bread and craving more, but we've run out. Haha, food cravings are weird. It was a ciabatta sliced in half and buttered, much better than the long roll with garlic jammed in.

Came to a realisation my music tastes are calm, chill tunes and hard EDM with nothing in between. Signed into Spotify and see their algorithm confirm it in the explore section 😅

Caught a cold last week (boo), then got better (yay), but now I'm sick again (booooo). I would like to breathe through my nose sometime, thanks.

Catfish found a new hiding spot, shh.
