Is corru.observer a widely known browser game? I played it last Thanksgiving week while I was meeting my grandfather for only the second time in my long-ass life and my grandmother for the first time in ~25 years. It was a weird trip that was perfect for late nights of playing a trippy game.
I think about it just about weekly, despite not having played it since. With #cohost dying, I'm sad I won't get my occasional dose of news and fanart there. Will I resurrect a tumblr account for following fanart? Quite possibly. 😣
Anyway, if you can handle the intensity of the visuals, it's a great game: corru.observer/
(Maybe it is well known. RPS did a piece on it: rockpapershotgun.com/this-amaz…)

This amazing, surprising browser game shows the Internet can still be magical
Treat yourself to a magical internet experience with free sci-fi game Corru.Observer, playable in your browser.Alice O'Connor (Rock Paper Shotgun)
@WatchingfromHollyTrees 😁 I'm impressed they played it, because it's much harder to get folks to notice browser games! It's a meaty game, though, and so creative and well-crafted.
...Well, now I know what I'm doing with my next free evening (catching up from where I left off). 😋

There are many valid reasons to be skeptical of geoengineering & still a lot of opportunities to address #ClimateChange that don’t involve the uncertainty of tinkering with the planet.
Lumping geoengineering skepticism with conspiracy theorists in a headline is terrible framing.

Sorry if I'm derailing a bit, but I often wrestle with the question of how much controversy over this topic is owed to Kim Stanley Robinson, given his influential #CliFi novels? I liked this BBC Futures article with KSR from last year: bbc.co.uk/future/article/20231…
To avert climate disaster, what if one rogue nation dimmed the Sun?
In an influential cli-fi novel, a desperate government ignores international consensus and pumps aerosols into the atmosphere to cool the world. Could it happen for real?India Bourke (BBC)

in reply to Will 💜 • • •They straight up inverted it—the previous wording about exclusive jurisdiction for court proceedings was amended (diff) to remove the reference to the (now-deleted) binding arbitration section, and to make the statement apply retroactively (I highlighted the new text in bold):
IANAL, idk if the new text actually adds something that wasn't already in the agreement, etc.
