I still like Bluesky, but posting was never really my thing. Recently I've been giving the Fediverse a shot and it feels much more cozy! I'll keep trying it out, just posting random stuff (editor things and #crossstitch mostly atm).
Updated my bio and happy to find familiar avatars over there!

I believe this is the first time the team has publicly spoken in such depth about the Qud ending.
Big thanks to @ectafoole.bsky.social @jfg.land @unormal.bsky.social for their time, and for making one of my fav games ever.

The sci-fi setting of Neurocracy posits exactly this scenario: brain implants are initially trained on neural data from a subset of society, so getting them to work requires us to think in ways characteristic of that subset, installing biases directly in our minds and fostering a mental monoculture
Hi hello did you know that Elon Musk's third Neuralink patient (previously nonverbal) is "getting help from Grok" to communicate
and I hope -- I REALLY HOPE -- he's not stuck in his own brain listening as a robot talks for him without his input because this, to me, would be worse than death

This patient’s Neuralink brain implant gets a boost from generative AI
A patient who types with his brain thanks to a Neuralink implant is using AI chatbots to speed things up.

Your 30's are kinda your last window to do a lot of stuff that causes injuries. Wanna try skateboarding, etc, that kinda thing? Try to do it before your 40's. Not that it becomes magically impossible, but, injuries start hanging around longer, meaning it's way harder to LEARN to do dangerous stuff.
Those who are 35+, what advice do you have for people just entering their 30s?
