Masterpiece.
Bonafide video game Americana Kentucky Route Zero was out 13 years ago (2013).🚚 A indebted delivery man, struggling repair woman, homeless brothers, and others go on an strange odyssey... An engrossing narrative title that only hits harder now.

Ok. So. Serious point.

With micro excavation of a find like this we will get maximum understanding - any preserved textiles/organics will be recovered.

Samples can be taken. The exact placing will be fully understood. The fragile find will be best protected. 🧵

Every year I hope we have emerged from the times of random leather scraps and blue filters and every year it continues.

This is the situation room and there is one big screen up that shows a browser window with three tabs open, all of them on Twitter
Several of the photos have Twitter up on a screen in the background but I can’t make out what search term appears

I’m interested to look around and see if I can find the abstract for this as the article hints that they have broken down the research by genre and other factors. In any case it looks good for modern games specifically.

The belief that politics is for wonks and weirdos and not something that dictates how every one of us lives our lives is one of the most toxic things in nerd culture and it needs to die yesterday

Covering this product like this is unconscionable.
