How does the security of non-android mobile linux compare to GrapheneOS? Is there anything that gets even remotely close to Graphene in terms of fascist government agencies being unable to access the phone’s contents if it’s shut down or locked properly?

- Comment on 'Go Back and Play Morrowind and Tell Me That's the Game You Want to Play Again' — Former Bethesda Veteran Delivers His Verdict on Potential The Elder Scrolls Remasters - IGN 2 weeks ago:
Morrowind is undoubtedly better today than when it was released. The thousands and thousands of mods, thundreds of mod lists, dozens of tools, and hell even the complete, open source, crossplatform reimplementation of the core game engine and its crazy good multiplayer fork, all add up to today being an even better time to experience the game and the community!
I highly recommend picking up the base game and then playing it through OpenMW, with minimal mods the first playthrough (tho unofficual bugfix patch and the like are still probably a good idea)

- Comment on Amazon to Shut Down All Amazon Go and Amazon Fresh Stores 2 weeks ago:
Wow, I remember when they had a single Go store at Amazon HQ in Seattle, and it was employee only. It sure was neat as a novelty, but it doesn’t surprise me that they could never figure out the tech.
Good riddance. These days, I more and more cherish the brief but real interactions I have with real grocery store cashiers.

It really, really does.
This song (All Good Times, by MelonadeM) isn’t from a game, rather it’s one of the demo songs included with Furnace, a chiptune tracker. And it goes so fucking hard:

I’m so fucking pumped for new Ecco games. I loved the original on Genesis and it’s about damn time we get some fresh stuff in the series.
Even better with this statement
- Comment on High value 4 weeks ago:
Morrowind remains my favorite Elder Scrolls game. It’s a bit more hardcore RPG than Skyrim for sure, and that may turn some folks off. And it’s definitely an older game with most of the dialog written. But it is an EXCEPTIONAL game. The world is beautiful and varied and exploration still feels more rewarding than Oblivion or Skyrim, the amount of lore to explore is HUGE, the specificity when building and leveling your character out exactly how you want is expansive, and the game doesn’t hold your hand - you can kill people who are vital to the main story if you want to, it just lets you doom the world if you really want to.
Nowadays, I’d strongly recommend running it with the excellent OpenMW engine, it’s rock solid and performs better than the original game, hell there’s even a working multiplayer fork of it!

The word “agentic” makes me want to rip my tongue out of my mouth.
Not only is it a stupid fucking word but it’s unpleasant to even think about pronouncing.

Yes, and I found it quite refreshing. It inspired me to get a straight razor, which was quite nice to use. Though keeping it adequately sharp was annoying enough that I switched to a double bladed safety razor, which is also quite nice to use.
