Another Thought About "gen Z And Gen Alpha Don't Know How To Use Computers, Just Phone Apps" Is That

kind of obsessed with this comment from the aoteaora nz subreddit….

well that didnt last. Tried to make camp at the stilt and instead whacked the priest sharing its square. reloaded and now Sheba is stuck as a Jell. just something about multiple objects/creatures in the same space that i just cant get my head around in this game. I hit ctrl+direction instead of ctrl+space THEN the direction. fuck me i guess!

yoooo! I rolled Dromad Trader for Sheba! this run is gonna be sick. also, Trash Diviner is my new favourite skill. Never knew i wanted to RP a wise old trash-wizard til i had it.

wait til you fuckers hear about The Expanse. it's got Jovian moon battles galore and ship crew polycules and maybe even some crazy alien goo please read it please I need a community to talk about it with and you're all so close it's so good. book 2 cold opens on the icy surface of Ganymede with a shooting war about to begin from the POV of a Samoan power armour marine girl from Mars. you get to watch space Mormons get their investments reacquisitioned for a harebrained scheme to save millions of lives. the protagonist has like ten biological parents for tax reasons.

twitter is being overrun by ice war posting. Best this sites been in ages

Y'all better reblog this one cause it took a while to make

We need to lay more blame for "Kids don't know how computers work" at the feet of the people responsible: Google.

Google set out about a decade ago to push their (relatively unpopular) chromebooks by supplying them below-cost to schools for students, explicitly marketing them as being easy to restrict to certain activities, and in the offing, kids have now grown up in walled gardens, on glorified tablets that are designed to monetize and restrict every movement to maximize profit for one of the biggest companies in the world.

Tech literacy didn't mysteriously vanish, it was fucking murdered for profit.

tumblr removed my header which was literally just this image

Cracticus, my True Kin Praetorian had a new and very brief archnemesis - who I've nicknamed Refracticus. The chaos of friendly clones is enough (thankyou, four unique Temporal Fugue-granting items in a row), when they're out to get you it gets really spicy:

my favourite excerpts from this log are: "Refracted Cracticus attempts to conk you on the head" "You fall asleep" (amid Evil Twins, explosions and energy beams) and of course the final grenade smacking into me for zero damage in what I can only imagine as a certified Looney Tunes moment before the 89 explosion damage smears my cybernetics and other, less awesome innards on the walls. I am so into this game. I'm being all annoying irl to people about it. if you haven't yet and you read this far, PLAY IT! this shit is cash! Sun and Moon! Positively Quetzal!
