This future that we live in…

A food delivery robot forces it’s way across a police crime scene.

Videogames are just vibes, verbs and variables

[Erin Gibbons, PhD 🚀 @ErinSpaceCase]

OH MY

Our extraterrestrial helicopter spotted the parachute and back-shell that guided the @NASAPersevere rover to the surface of Mars over a year ago.

And what a sight🤩
Space debris crash-landed on another world snapped by an aerial drone. What a timeline we live in.

[Liza Dixon ⚡️ @lizadixon]

I agree with Anna. I have this same thought on shorelines.

This is also why I study human-machine interaction; I’m obsessed with edges, exchanges, relationships 😍

Every video game designer has the power to look at a meeting that's about to end 15 minutes early and say a thing that causes it to end 10 minutes late.

@thatJaneNg Someone misheard me say “sprint goals” the other day and thought I was giving “sprinkles” as some kind of kudos to a teammate. Now I just want to give everybody sprinkles every time something good happens!

Listening to Temple of the Dog and feeling very lucky to have grown up with the voices of Eddie Vedder and Chris Cornell. As I get older, my growing awareness of their friendship makes these shared songs all the more sweet (and the loss of Cornell more sad).

From the article:

“Author Kiese Laymon tweeted recently, ‘Seeing folks in masks looks like love to me.’

“And it is. It is love of self, love of family, friends, and strangers. Love of our children, and children we do not know.”

[Pittsburgh City Paper @PGHCityPaper]

In the face of a global pandemic, too many have chosen to the minimum. Why can’t we choose to do the most?

“'One big theme of WtWTLW is the idea that America promises a lot to its people, but fails that promise for most of them,' (the game's designer, @Johnnemann) Nordhagen told Kotaku."

Talk about making achievements meaningful. Love this.

@al_biglan Proper application for split-top buns.

[Eben Myers (he/him) @ebenmyers]

@al_biglan I’m ambivalent for hot dogs. But the split-top bun is essential for a proper Maine lobster role. Butter plays a factor there, too.

[Eben Myers (he/him) @ebenmyers]

@wuffles @thatJaneNg Saw this via @thatJaneNg … sounds like you’re all set, but I’d add a plug for buying handmade knives from a blade smith. I have a cheese knife from https://t.co/wth1fiPSJJ that I love!

[Santosh Mathan @SantoshMathan]

New paper synthesizing an important component of our research on the IARPA-funded SHARP project. We highlight the functional overlap between executive functions and fluid intelligence and the neural substrate supporting both. Thanks @ESantarnecchi for seeing through to pub.

[Eben Myers (he/him) @ebenmyers]

@jparise @Firewatchgame Yes! @thatJaneNg’s environment art was lovely to explore. A great use of FPS controls for a non-shooting experience.

[JohnBrieger - BSky move complete @DasBrieger]

Candyland is a masterpiece of game design that designers should be studying and dissecting as one of the best examples EVER of game design craft for specific audiences.
