I don't understand why these two haven't opened a speakeasy bar called "Mezcal and Pascal" yet, when it's so obvious

The Onion buying Infowars on a bankruptcy auction is the best metaphor and the shortest explanation for 2024

I am glad to see that you are not giving up in here, although it will clearly not be ‘like then’ again

Andromeda spotted from my balcony in Kyiv 🔭 Get used to this view, because in 4.5 billion years the Milky Way will collide with it, and the appearance of our sky will change forever (sorry for the drama)

True cyberpunk is when you miss air raid alert from a Russian attack because you do fitness in a VR headset and notice that something is wrong only when your dog gets scared and breaks into the virtual safety zone

Westerners won't even know about it, but it was enough to include a Ukrainian district in a damn game about Spider-Man for Ukrainian users to be touched, and for Russian users to writhe in anger.

It's amazing how little we need to feel represented.

Thanks, Insomniac!

My first attempt to take a photo of the Orion Nebula above Kyiv, oneshot, exposure – 30 seconds.

In addition to being just a beautiful object located 1300+ light years away, there are also strange things happening there that are mysterious to science.

For me, it was pretty hard to write this story since:
- everyone is afraid to talk about China openly
- there's little open info about external development studios, but meanwhile, you have no idea how many of your favorite games they are involved in ↓

Just made my first phone+telescope astrophotography of the Andromeda galaxy. It ain’t much, but it’s honest work

Kyiv, Ukraine, 22.07.23

So called astrophotography, shot in Kyiv 18.07.23

Well at least they are consistent not only with Russia-related headlines

Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

I wrote this story for Wired more like a column, not a *true journalism*, but it still was a pretty surreal experience for a first month of a full-scale Russia’s war in Ukraine

Working on a story about how tensions between China and Taiwan will affect game developers in the region. Wrote a post on Reddit about searching for people to comment. It is still hangin’ on a Taiwanese subreddit. On the Chinese one, it was banned in minutes.

You can take the boy out the hood…

Навіть в такому кострубатому Bluesky поки що подобається майже все, окрім двох речей:
- що ми тут обговорюємо твіттер і Маска
- що у соцмережі 2023 року так і не придумали, як відмовитися від лайків, підписників, і цього порожнього відчуття urgency, яке тисне і нічого не дає у відповідь

Bluesky is lagging because of high demand, Meta briefly teases their Twitter-like clone. It all means one thing: time for Google to return Google Plus

I just wish the first post here contained the word "macaroni"
