I grew up hearing stories from my father about how folks abducted by Franco’s secret police would routinely “escape” to the roof of police HQ and “commit suicide.” The obviousness of the lie was itself an intimidation tactic.
"agents told hospital staff that Castaneda Mondragon ... 'purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.'”
A Minnesota man received a life-threatening injury while in ICE custody. It's not clear how he got injured because his memory and ability to communicate are so severely impaired. Agents said "he got his shit rocked." Wild story from @katrinapross.bsky.social sahanjournal.com/health/ice-d...

I once again urge horror game developers to inlcude accessibility options for jumpscares.
Let me either remove them, mute the sound on these specific effects or at least give me an overview of where they happen.
Hate that I have to spend time and spoil myself bevore playing every fps horror game.

Pathologic 3 is out!!!
I did localization editing on it, with several of my friends. We polished the English language game text.
If you've ever been interested in Pathologic, you can start with this one - no need to play 2 first. (But you should play both!!!) store.steampowered.com/app/3199650/...

4,000 words on the stage I haven't been able to stop playing for the last six years. Early dev screenshots, talk of tech challenges, five demo tracks embedded so you can hear the song's evolution. All the good stuff.

A reminder that The Escapist that people remembered does not exist anymore. Almost all the core staff packed up and left. Most reformed as Second Wind, which is doing decent work.
The Escapist now exists to promote online gambling and act as a mouthpiece for unhinged venture capitalists. Let it die

The Escapist accused Blue Prince developer Dogubomb of using generative AI. This is patently false and an utterly gross accusation.

Essentially, I think that LLM-generated dialogue only makes sense if you believe that the product of writing is words.
But the product of writing isn't words, any more than the product of justice is prisoners, or the product of love is weddings. The product of writing is meaning.

As a test, I asked Grok to provide me with 200 statements about “Seth Abramson” that met two criteria: they are (a) true, (b) critical.

In Deutschland wird Ordnung großgeschrieben, daher prüfen wir grundsätzlich alles, auch Parteien. Wenn eine Partei als rechtsextremer Verdachtsfall oder gesichert rechtsextrem eingestuft wird, sollte sie geprüft werden. Das ist der nächste logische Schritt.
