i will die on the hill that this goes beyond a generational divide. the meat of a 23-minute video can be written down and read in a fraction of the time.
if you're trying to make a point to me a send me a link to a yt video, expecting me to devote HALF AN HOUR to it, you are a psychopath.

The real generational divide is people who refuse to watch a video if it could be an article versus people who refuse to read an article if it could be a video

Oh my god
Brits can get around Discord's age verification thanks to Death Stranding's photo mode, bypassing the measure introduced with the UK's Online Safety Act. We tried it and it works—thanks, Kojima
The UK's new act blocks access to adult content without identification. Turns out, you only need a copy of Death Stranding and a phone to get around it.

Space is not a wall: toward a less architectural level design
Maybe video game level design theory needs less focus on architecture? And maybe I'm part of the problem? My bad.

Colin and @dominictarason.com are just about the best curators in the business right now for this exact reason – they don’t just tell you about a cool thing and shout genre tags at you, they (concisely!) tell you *why* you should care.
Khimera: Puzzle Island ($2.49) - the best picross game you've never played, at a dirt cheap price. has a great soundtrack too, the kind of thing that Sonic CD fans are sure to mark out for.
