Hooded Horse is becoming one of, if not THE best indie publishers around right now. Just banger after banger. Not all the games are even "my thing," but I can definitely see how much love and good design work is going into each game they release.
one neat thing about AI is that it's getting companies to trust automated tooling to patch their shit without threatening to sue said tooling maker if it doesn't work

you want data centers in space so nobody from the FBI or Europol can come knocking on your door about certain images or financial docks, and subsequently confiscating hard drives containing evidence of your organized crime operation
🚲insert into warcrimes_users where profession = 'maga'@db-user.bsky.social · 23h agoit's a lie meant to obfuscate the real reasons you'd have data centers in space: to skirt data residency laws basically creating legal grey zones for questionable data and prevent seizure/inspection by state entities that certain groups hate
A Texas cheer squad had been doing this 9/11 reenactment routine since 2002(!), before it gained national attention in 2015. That institutional continuity is interesting because it means it's not something the squad members just happened to come up with -- it's the fully adult coaches.
![From USAToday
The group has performed the routine since 2002, but has never received this much attention, according to cheer coach Danielle Hunter.
"It actually started in the '80's when they did a tribute for Veterans Day," Hunter said. "Not until 2002 after 9/11 did we also start [honoring] the tragedies from 9/11. That event and the victims."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:c5fz5esreprnd7uewvzofy55/bafkreia24ac37ltdz5krevg6neoxmcw5em4idoyhcrhp5lrjx54grkow6u)

i imagine part of AOC’s strategy here in courting MAHA is to torpedo a potential RFK ‘28 bid before it even begins

cannot stress enough how many people I know in the 20-45 range who deal with some chronic health problem (pain, digestion, breathing, migraines) where the only remedies offered are OTC meds or PT some get lucky and get access to surgery or prescription meds, but have to fight hard for it
