Been playing Stellaris with friends since its release. We all still love the game but in the past couple of years it’s been almost impossible to play with a group of people due to network errors and desync. Hopefully this update fixes that.

If another service such as Matrix can built similar screen sharing into their applications then I’d be able to convince my friends to make the shift. As it stands there isn’t really a 1:1 equivalent.

Core memory unlocked. I think I played this for a very short time back in the 2000’s.

I recently got Star Trucker on sale. Absolutely loving it so far. Scratches my ETS chill vibe and sci-fi interesting stuff vibe.

My only wish would be a way to charge batteries! I know it’s a game design decision but batteries are the bane of my existence in ST.

Ubisoft: Best I can do is another Assassins Creed crammed with micro transactions and bloat ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This whole event is so cool! I’ve been wanting to do my part for Super Earth but irl has been thwarting my patriotic duties.

What is the world coming to when we can’t even trust spyware 😞

I’m shocked. Shocked I tell you! Well, maybe not that shocked.

Before that it’s just sparkling authoritarianism?

Considering two of the options are ‘hell’ and ‘die mart’ my money is on ass world being filled with hairy old men with poor hygiene.

I was wondering who the hell this Grok person was. I was thinking about what an unfortunate name for a person! No surprise that it’s actually a product and [probably] directly named by an immature billionaire edgelord.

To be clear, I know he didn’t invent the name. But if someone’s parents named them ‘Grok’ I’d understand if they went for a name change.

Green energy is somehow both way too expensive and dangerously cheap.

That can literally be said by the same individuals in adjacent sentences depending on the narrative they’re spinning at the time.

Reading this at 3:40am…

It’s so weird that they’re unsure whether to call it a terrorist attack:

• Luigi shot one guy = 100% terrorist.
• Someone commits a car bombing outside of a presidential elects business = better find out what color his skin was before making snap judgments.

For Karl!

Imagine a game similar to Alien Isolation where the creature is a Thing which a small LLM AI generates, would be pretty cool. The usual hallucinations that AI suffer would just suit The Thing creature aesthetic and give a huge amount of variety to in-game monsters.

Mixed with a proper horror theme and some fleshed out “are they a Thing” game mechanics and it’d at least make a super interesting game.

Did the PSN stuff get resolved? I haven’t kept attention to it, can people from non-PSN countries play the game now?

Considering they referred to it as “an Xbox” instead of a specific generation I’m going to assume they weren’t around when the first Xbox was still a thing so they’re probably new to this.
