    It’s getting close to the end of December, so I guess I should talk about a few of the things I’ve enjoyed writing this year.

  4. I still can’t tell if RTLJ is a calculated attention-grabbing ploy, a scam, or one of the best-executed slow-burn trolls in internet history.

  5. Wow, the Remake The Last Jedi campaign has already raised over 377 million imaginary dollars! That’s almost $0 in regular dollars.

  8. It’s a real ego blow when the origin myth of your state, as commemorated in an incredibly popular video game, is named after the state directly below you.

  9. My home state of Washington is apparently the 4th most humble state in the nation about its utter irrelevance to American history. Also man Idaho, come on, what are you doing.

  10. Battle Royale might be a stretch, but this bit of Dark Souls 3 forensics is pretty fascinating

    A lot of predictive-text/auto-generated writing is still just “isn’t it funny how wrong this is,” but I like the idea of people reveling in the alien-ness of something that “thinks" in a completely different way.

    Human artists getting replaced by a robotic Kahlo/Woolf/Mitchell/&c is a basic dystopian trope, but this kind of human/machine art feels like one of the few non-creepily optimistic uses of AI

    There are definitely reasons for some people to get IUDs (especially non-hormonal copper ones) over implants, and contraception is finicky and personal for everyone! But I feel like implants aren’t publicized as much as they ought to be.

    If you’re thinking about IUDs but worried about pain, fitting, and all that: Nexplanon lasts four years, is a minimally invasive arm implant, and is relatively accessible through hospitals and Planned Parenthood.

    Google just suggested I look up this terrible movie about Bruce Campbell trying to overthrow a future VR dystopia, so actually algorithms are good.

    In the future all media franchises will be nationalized after reaching a set revenue threshold, with further installments or retconning approved via Congressional vote or ballot referendum. Entire electoral races will be fought over “the Canto Bight issue."

    Yeah it’s useful to remember that the remaster is also in an awkward position, but since it's being made by a separate studio I’m not sure how much one affects the other.

    Cyberpunk 2077 had a 5+ year gap between its teaser trailer and a playable hands-off demo at E3, so who knows! We could get something really cool in like 2020.

    Incidentally System Shock 3 was announced in December 2015, so it was in the early concept stage for almost a year and a half, not counting whatever work took place before the announce. Which would make sense, if the studio’s been mostly focused on Underworld.

    While we’re talking about Cyberpunk 2077 can we talk about whatever’s going on with System Shock 3? It was in "early concept stages of development” in March 2017, so it could be… quite a ways off.
