Twenty years on and I still think this is the most breathtaking sequence ever put in a videogame. Testament to the fact that scale and awe are not virtues of graphical horsepower alone

@spacecowboy17.bsky.social I know you're probably busy with all the attention, so no need to reply or anything, but I just wanted to leave you this feature request: a variant of For You that excludes posts by people you follow. Would make for a proper "discover" feed.

yea i was hoping bsky app will at least explore taking a break from “four photos” twitter layout
Not gonna lie, it’s pretty annoying that every time I download Threads I see a half dozen new interesting meticulously-executed features that are distinct from what any similar app is doing

i was wondering what would make a person choose one over the other and i think this is the distinction in personality which guides this choice, and it explains why mastodon is going crazy with worry and y'all are... not.

now i get it. it's not as clean but let me exaggerate for effect:
mastodon is the "everything really really matters" network. like classroom serious.
bsky is the "nothing really matters" network. that's why the jokes here are better, and the mood is better, and there's dancing on the volcano.

Very surprised to find out @babystepsgame.bsky.social is actually great for couch co-op. I don't think I saw the marketing mention this at all?
2 controllers, leftmost player takes the left leg, rightmost the right leg, and whoever's more prone to simulation sickness controls the camera. Super fun.

One piece of advice to the new wave of Twitter refugees: do not use the Discover feed, it's terrible.
a) Use Following. Just follow people. It takes effort, but leads to good results like it always has.
b) Use the third-party For You feed. It's often not bad. bsky.app/profile/did:...

I would welcome and participate in a community effort or other way to evolve the current For You into a widely mirrored/distributed and resilient variant that’s independent of any single point of failure (spacecowboy or bsky or other). The building blocks should be widely understood and available
on one hand bluesky should offer to host spacecowboy's feed on their infra so that a single guy isn't paying out of pocket to support a loadbearing feature for thousands of users
on the other it's cool that it stays up when bluesky's feeds crash

Time for another attempted move from Notion to @obsidian.md, since the new Bases feature seems promising. Importer goes brrrr.

Welcome, Twitter escapees/new Bluesky users. Four quick tips:
1. Starter packs are awesome. I made a game dev one here -> go.bsky.app/RxQCsKS
2. Bluesky's block is much more potent. Do not quote, or dunk. There's no pay-to-win so silence does remove nasty people. Blocks and move on copiously.

![PEOPLE:
- Satoru Takizawa, age 45. Art Director of Breath of the Wild.
QUOTE:
Takizawa: We wanted to create a world [for Breath of the Wild] that could accommodate the fantastical elements of Hyrule without sacrificing a more realistic art style, and we went about that by crafting a hybrid of the two that would allow the players to suspend their disbelief when certain things happen.
That allowed us to include a broad range of ideas from the designers and enabled us to have some crazy stuff happen. For example, the player is able to toss a bunch of ingredients into a pot and have a dessert pop out. We found that injecting humor into the visual shorthand helps players forgive the break from reality.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2e7f2uvcguv4d5qxqnyjmk32/bafkreieab4g3k6swqi2iy4dhgxs6ru74ifpysafynikyy23lot3h2wtbpi@jpeg)
