#Cyberpunk #TTRPG this evening involved a big lore dump and a lot of planning and prep for next session when it will all kick off, but also the BBEG potentially coining a name for the party at long last, in session 31 - The Rogue Assets.

If you're feeling down, because... well, you know... I can heartily recommend getting drunk on Fireball and watching Monster Factory. Laughing until you cry is good medicine.

Right, now, I'm honestly more interested in this than a PS6.
Valve is making a console. The Steam Machine, a sleek box with the guts of a mid-range PC that runs SteamOS, will arrive in early 2026. Prices TBD, but unlike the failed Steam Machine initiative from a decade ago, this is Valve's own device. Big news www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

None of this was ever about Online Safety, not about protecting kids. It was all about control and surveilance.
And if you think that sounds a bit too "tin foil hat conspiracy theory", well, you might want to rethink your perspective.

The British government admits it is now monitoring VPNs use by UK residents. Regulator Ofcom has contracted with an AI-powered surveillance service to detect the number of citizens using VPNs to evade the Online Safety Act.
The UK tech minister has said a VPN ban is on the table.

At this stage of things I would rather back a party that is going to try and radically change things for the better even if that's a struggle.

Controversial take, perhaps, but for all the political interfering and all its faults, the BBC is a positive institution. Like the NHS, it's a remnant of socialism in an increasingly capitalist hellscape. This is why the right on both sides of the pond are coming for it. It needs support.

It kinda sucks that, ever since a bunch of clout chasers tried to cancel Critical Role by claiming their Indiana Jones-inspired opening titles were supporting colonialism, they've been too scared to do anything fun with the opening credits.
