As you may have read in this week's newsletter, I spoke to a bunch of indie developers at PLAY Expo Blackpool. I'm going to be featuring each of their games over the next few days, but I wanted to kick this off with the simplest one of them all, a neoretro title called PlanckMan.

Remember Skype?
Microsoft is killing it, but back in the day, I used a Skypephone S2 as my daily driver.
So here's a video showcasing both it, and its successor, the Skypephone S2X.

Dear @hellocakebread.bsky.social hi hello.
While researching for a video I am producing, I came across this advert, predating The Stanley Parable by 4 years.
In it, there is a fellow, Stanley, whos actions are voiced by a narrator with a familiar tone. Any connection?

In an update to the story about Samsung shifting out AI photos in their emails, someone else foudn the same "family" on another website here: naht.org/impact/ - Did they use the same stock photo and alter it for their marketing? Hmm..

I just received the strangest email from Samsung after buying my new Galaxy S24 FE. It seems like they used some sort of AI to generate the content, and it went a little off the rails. I'm not sure if I should be concerned or amused!? #Samsung #GalaxyS24FE #AIgonewrong (this text also generated)
