Terra Nil is an absolute joy, an environmental strategy game about bringing the wastes back to life and now it's Steam Deck Verified with gamepad support.
Pangolins get their name from the Malay ‘pengguling’ meaning rolling up. These special critically endangered animals deserve a break from savage poaching
Proving to a website that you are human by carrying out a mechanical task feels a bit like forcing rats or birds to prove their intelligence by performing human-like feats.
I imagine this is how @RiversideBryan@social.lol is eyeing us Pixelfed peeps right now. 😅 His account migration triggered a rare bug, so now he sees all our posts and interacts with them, but we can't see his posts, likes, or comments (or his profile, for that matter). 🙄😔 He hasn't forsaken us, we just can't see him jumping and waving back in Florida. The Big Chief is on it! 🤞
Good news! The final ENTSO-E report into the Spain blackout is out A complex stew of different factors, but "too much solar" is simply not even among them, let alone a major component. As always: the narrative built by fossil/nuke advocates was wrong www.entsoe.eu/news/2026/03...
What is going to happen now is that a bunch of journalists are going to Ctrl + F "solar", screenshot what they find, and without understanding what they're looking at present it under a headline that'll look something like FINAL REPORT SHOWS SOLAR WAS TO BLAME FOR DEADLY BLACKOUT APOCALYPSE
The big talking point that emerged DURING the blackout, led in particular by Bloomberg's Javier Blas, was that over-reliance on solar resulted in low 'system inertia' (the heartbeat of the grid). Others, such as a prominent Norwegian nuke advocate, helped spread it. it was COMPLETELY WRONG
Will lightning strike twice for developer poncle? We're going to find out when Vampire Crawlers: The Turbo Wildcard from Vampire Survivors releases April 21st.
Looking the reviews on Steam it looks like you are never be able to stop a shit storm once the community has decided they want to start one. Even if it was just a misunderstanding
> "[...]but I want to reassure OpenTTD fans that we have not been “pressured” by Atari to make these changes."
This seems a bit weird. Are we to believe that the OpenTTD devs just happily chose to put someone else's paywall on the game?
Like, I can imagine why this might be considered a fair an reasonable outcome, but obviously it is not a win for OpenTTD. Its a decision that surely must be the result of implicit pressure. Right?
SteamOS 3.8.0 Preview is another big upgrade for Valve's Linux distribution, with lots of enhancements to hardware support across the board for handhelds.
Valve have been cooking! A new Steam Client Beta is available with something quite special for Linux gamers, as Valve work to continue improving Linux gaming.
@nextcloud Hello. I’m working with an immigrant organizing group that wants to have access to files/messaging on servers outside of US jurisdiction. We looked into NextCloud, but it’s a little confusing… can we do that on the free level? If so, how many users and what functions/applications are available?
hey there! There are options to use Nextcloud with a provider, including free simple sign-up options: nextcloud.com/sign-up/
You can find the details about the offers by each provider via link. If you need more storage and users, you will need to use paid hosting or host Nextcloud yourself.
I couldn't be more excited to announce something I've been working on for a long time -
Please welcome Belltower House Artist Residency, a multidisciplinary gift of time in my erstwhile home in southern New Mexico, now accepting applications for 2026.
This home has been such a gift to me over the years, and I'm so excited to see it serve as a creative refuge for others. I find living and working here to be productive, peaceful, and deeply affirming.
Applications are being accepted for both spring and fall 2026, but the spring sessions are very soon- so we're likely going to keep it word of mouth / friends of friends as we get off the ground. Please share with those who you think might benefit from the space and time. belltowerhouse.org/
The legal trade is largely to blame for African grey parrots becoming endangered. Regulator CITES is broken allowing exploitation, massive reform needed now!
GASSED-UP GAMERS: see the device that's shooting CHEMICALS up to 73X WORSE THAN A "VAPE" into YOUR children's noses
parents are steamed: first they called your kids "fatty fatty no parents". now, under the leadership of kier starmer, they're poisoning them with brain-damaging fumes. when will ofcom turn the shutoff valve?
Valve is politely recommending that Steam Deck owners avoid inhaling its exhaust fumes after some gamers posted online about secretly enjoying the smell.
@Aladár Mézga I know. We have many people originally from Hong Kong who migrated here before Hong Kong was "given back" to China. They always wear masks for the slightest colds, flus, or hayfever. It's good practice!
modern games are utter garbage. i went to this place called "cinema" (the only local arcade i have) and paid fifteen bucks for a single play session. it started out interestingly, where you have to match the sequence on the play token with the correct seat to begin (SPOILER: K8 means row K, column 8. not too difficult, but pretty hard for the first level. certainly tougher than the first puzzle in bioshock infinite). then there was the obligatory stealth section: open the packet of chips without alerting the other moviegoers. yawn.
then it all went downhill. ten minutes of preroll ads? people will call this a skill issue, but i couldn't for the life of me find the little [X] to dismiss the ads. i had to sit through all ten minutes. then the main experience starts. two hours of unskippable cutscenes! what is this, a kojima game? god damn. the graphics were incredible -- almost as good as alan wake 2 -- but jeez. and the cutscenes are locked at 24fps. not 30. 24. i guess it's for the "cinematic experience".
and then... it ends.

and then... it ends. you get a victory lap mission of finding the exit (literally the only door in the room) and it's over. and since it's an arcade, you need to pay again to replay it.
they had multiplayer with proximity chat (the further you sit from your friends, the louder you have to talk), but you instantly fail the stealth sections if you use it. what's the point?
after i got home i decided to look up speedruns of the game. apparently the DVD port (which runs at 576p???) can be beaten in seconds with a glitch involving the eject button
In the first years I moved to Austalia the Federal government passed a law with support from both Labor and Liberal politicians which limited truth in advertising laws such that they did not apply to political speech. This was used in the upcoming election to misrepresent small parties and take their seats.
The Welsh Parliament has passed a law to make it illegal for candidates to lie during Senedd elections.
The new law paves the way for a new criminal offence to make false or misleading statements of fact to help an election candidate...
The bill also establishes a recall system, giving the public the opportunity to kick out politicians who have misbehaved from the Welsh Parliament in between elections.
