  This is such a bummer. Hellblade 2 was one of the most visually stunning games I’ve ever played and the face capture work Ninja Theory were doing was the best in the biz https://www.theverge.com/news/998589/microsoft-xbox-layoffs-ninja-theory-closure

  I’m excited to go see Resident Evil this evening. But I can’t stop thinking about this guy actually being two guys https://mastodon.social/@BenRiceM/116495925952131135

  I had an absolute blast at Resident Evil. A perfect blend of horror and comedy as well as one of the best video game adaptations ever made. As a big fan of the video game franchise, I was a little worried it would feel too far removed but that wasn’t the case at all

  Agile is the first app I ever built (it’s a game like whak-a-mole) and I like to revisit it every so often. I updated it today to make it that little bit nicer and give it a shiny new Liquid Glass icon https://apps.apple.com/ie/app/agile-3/id1289012427

  I agree with everything Louie says. Coincidentally, did you know I do design consulting which means you can pay me to make your app look (and feel and work) better? https://benricemccarthy.com/consulting/index.html https://pdx.social/@louie/117269212934654445

  Elon Musk is directly for the end of USAID, leading to hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths world (as I understand it) on top of violent rhetoric towards various minorities.

  Engaging with Harry Potter books, movies, theme parks, etc and announcing it to social media is a bizarre thing to do in 2026. We have been screaming from the rooftops for almost a decade about the harm this causes to trans people. You have no excuse. If I see it, it’s an immediate unfollow.

  The streets are extended gutters full of blood and when they finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout “SAVE US!”... and I’ll look down and whisper “Meow.”

  Before I was born, my mother worked as a chef for a wealthy family as they vacationed for the summer. When my brother and I were old enough to appreciate it, she took us there to share this place that was special to her. A little island off Greece called Ithaca. Haven’t been back in about 20 years.

  I’m just back from a trip to Germany to visit one of my closest friends, Daniel, who’s been held in solitary confinement 23h a day for the past ten months in a 2 × 5m cell. They get one hour of visitation per month.

  There’s a lot of outrage directed at data centres right now and I wonder how many people consider how much less storage and bandwidth are required for audio vs video. We’d need fewer data centres if they weren’t being filled with videos of two people sitting on Zoom with blurry living rooms https://mastodon.social/@pxlnv/116977695735124645

  I know everyone has their own thresholds for what to support and what to boycott but I’m genuinely astonished at the number of people watching the world cup given the staggering levels of corruption and capitulating to the Trump administration

  I’m less bothered by Sony giving up on physical media than I am the lack of consumer protections for digital media
