In June 2020 someone at the BBC had the idea to create the most amazing thing I’ve heard in a long time: The Sleeping Forecast (Bits of the shipping forecast read by Neil Nunes over classical music) Go find it right NOW

HOW did I not know OUTER WILDS IS AVAILABLE FOR SWITCH?? 🥳 I would love it if there was a way to add future/someday titles to your wish list so I was notified when they became available. The mobile app could list all upcoming releases? (It’s where users are reading about games)

I prefer the Dread Pirate Roberts theory of Banksy I like to think the original Banksy has been retired for years and living in a small house on Mallorca painting caricatures for tourists.

No, absolutely not. We’re not calling it “the content industry” now, you psychopaths
Hollywood heaves a sigh of relief. The WGA and major studios and streamers have reached a tentative agreement on a new three-year contract that promises to end the 146-day strike that has taken a heavy toll across the content industry. bit.ly/3PwxBAp

I’m not throwing shade. I’m genuinely confused: Ashoka EP1 pt 2 is literally 16min of new material in an episode listed as 44min??? Seems like you could make the first episode 1h 12min & shorten the series by 1 ep & be just fine in a binge-watch streaming world…? So bizarre

I have only beat the Corpse of Viros chimera twice, but find myself checking USPS status every few hours as my copy of Frostwild is meant to arrive Long time since I’ve been this excited to play a game expansion in cardboard or digital! 🙌 to the Ashes team for solid sets!

Great view into the fantastic work of @WeAreGameheads and the talented students that make amazing interactive experiences at the Summer Accelerator Program. It’s said that the youth are our future. That future as well as the present needs these young people’s perspectives.
We're so excited!! In the first part of a series, @Marketplace looks at the student-developed game #HeresYourChange and talks to its creators as well as our own @zette16 about how they turned the complex topic of gentrification into a playable video game. bit.ly/46waMo9

Trying to see what the fuss is about, I’m not super sure how this is “90s A’s baseball card” related exactly but it IS fascinatingly bizarre and I -think- points towards what style of images are favored and therefore reinforced in the model? …I don’t even know where to start…

I have had my own interactions with antiquated technology recently: an old 2015 MBP that I upgraded the HD & ram on, but is no longer supported by OS upgrades to the point that even Chrome is like ….nope! …Why so we fall for the 3 year hardware upgrade cycle over and over?…
