New MMORPG idea: players don’t directly control a character, but instead “live inside” one and influence its decisions
A lone PC would theoretically have full control but would be unable to keep up 24/7
Many PCs can coordinate on one character … but also internal conflict

because "not good enough, but better" still is massively better! every party with friends, every joyful moment extracted from the system, every cute little thing you have time to knit, every brunch you go to, those are the things that things not being "less evil" have cost us. less evil means a LOT

Today's Load-bearing Tomato addresses the age old question:
"why don't the devs just [SOCIAL MEDIA OPINION]"
It turns out, "a lot of reasons", but if you never have to test your ideas, you never have to discover why they're not any good.

This is a very early prototype, so please expect some problems, but I am very happy with the first concept.
I don't believe there is anything like it.

I don't understand ppl who post on BSky regularly, but basically never engage with replies.
Like, do whatever works for you, but my attention and thought is valuable, why should I spend it on someone who gives none of it back?

Inside my brain is one muppet yelling “get work done!” and another yelling “do fun stuff!” and another “make art!” and my entire day is just trying to make as many of these monsters happy at a time as possible

I know so many trans folk who'd KILL to be ignorant about politics, just dopily shuffling their way through the world without ever having to scan a headline
"Why do you have to bring politics into everything you do?" I dunno. Maybe because YOU POLITICIZED EVERYTHING ABOUT MY EXISTENCE. I would LOVE to not think about politics, but it's a privilege that has been taken from me.

What if one of the guys decides to trick the gorilla and wears a gorilla suit, but the gorilla, anticipating this, wears a human suit, same day, so, tragically, the guy in the gorilla suit is mistakenly beaten to death, and the gorilla assumes the guys life, JUST LIKE IN FACE/OFF

OK, our latest bug has me exhausted:
On specific brands of Android phone (e.g. Pixel 6 / 7 / 8 / 9, OnePlus 12 / 13) the latest Galaxy patch hangs when trying to log the user in via Google Auth.
I've gone down the rabbithole for 2 days and desperate for new ideas. Tech details in 🧵.
