Thank you!
Something I’ve never seen you write and would be very interested in reading: what keeps the internet legal in other countries?
from 2000AD I think Silver book one and the Complete Shakara have both been stellar
lots of micro-level takes here but I think the big one is that it's just so important to punish people when they do bad things www.nytimes.com/2025/12/16/m...
can see why it did though. the preamble to get to the gag is… lengthy
@simonwillison.net's "Generate an SVG of a pelican riding a bicycle" progress in 14 months. On the left, Gemini Flash 1.5; on the right, Gemini Flash 3

With plentiful land and electricity on hand, the kingdom thinks it has found an edge
Counterpoint: I want one so bad and I’m furious they aren’t available here
I think I'm interested one step up – why did mobile gaming in particular just get destroyed by F2P, to an extent that paid premium games just died on the platforms
oh for sure – but I'm curious for myself! I'm definitely not a "new games" guy but I'm also not a "forever game" guy
I'm not sure which is the right lesson to draw from the fact that mobile games used to be fantastic and are now terrible, but I'm desperately looking for one that isn't inherently either elitist, conservative or fogeyish and coming up blank
Hugely enjoyed @jmrivera.bsky.social's review of the Simogo Collection, a boutique collection of games from a time when it didn't feel like your smartphone was poisoning you. The App Store's golden window for games lasted such a short while 😔

I'd like an equivalent stat for seeing how much playtime was on "new to you" games
huge amount depends on whether Hugo botched a transcription or whether IDS actually said those words verbatim, absolutely mangling the pun
Isn’t he running marvel now?
17 days of ripping open a bag, reading the lovely description of the precise grower it came from, carefully and precisely making a perfect cup of black coffee, and it tasting exactly and completely like a cup of black coffee
