To me, Ctrl Alt Ego is not well known enough. It is an immersive sim in the style of Prey. You play as a robot roaming a station, where your Ego (like a spirit) can pass into and control all sorts of objects to solve puzzles, evade, control or kill enemies. The graphics aren’t impressive (it was made by a 2-person team) but the gameplay is so interesting and the story is surprisingly compelling and funny!
If they did that, anyone could spin up an instance and start just fabricating votes and there’d be no way to know
I think part of the motive is to make brigading harder (show if users or bots are colluding to vote things up or down)
20,000 people are playing it at a time. Not exactly a secret. The way they’re testing this game is radical and newsworthy in itself. I’m glad Verge reported on it, and they don’t seem mad they they were banned
LTT posted a do-over video with Stefan. He seems like a decent guy. Have followed him since then. https://youtu.be/QKzmYsySGFQ?si=AlEpsycL5ifF3RxD
It is remarkable how allergic some far-right people in America are to being called far-right. Even Richard Spencer often refers to himself as a moderate. I think it originates from their inability to understand the views of other people and place their own in context (sometimes, of course, they are just acting in bad faith, but I think there is a real undercurrent of far-right folks who just can’t see their views for what they are).
Lol clearly Kamala personally approved this Lemmy meme astroturf
Yep, it lives up to the best of what immersive sims set out to be. You have point A, point B, and a million ways that you can go about getting from A to B
