Yup that seems to make the most sense to me. Guess we'll just have to check in on that account in awhile. No news articles on it yet.

Yeah basically my exact thoughts. Glad I'm not alone in that interpretation!
Very interesting. I don't use Bluesky and I'm trying to verify the accuracy of this information. Does anyone else find her account strange? 8 hours ago she posts this terrifying message. And...3 hours ago she posts a totally chill introduction? Isn't that backwards? And she seems to have an awful lot of followers for just these two posts. The name seems legit from a quick search, tied to a lawyer indeed. But I'm kind of surprised people aren't more freaked out in the replies - isn't this the first known instance of a citizen being targeted for deportation? But it's mostly jokes from responders. And her post chronology is confusing to me still. Maybe someone can help clarify/verify.
Soooo incredibly beautiful. I love how it waves around, and the scale of it is just awesome. It's crazy that some of those oscillations are fast enough that, if overlaid with the earth, would be absolutely flying across the sky in real time. But by far the most interesting part is how the cloud structure just hangs there while bits of it get torn off and dragged into the surface, and the way it has almost a surface tension like effect even at that size. It really doesn't look much different from water on the window during rain. Does anyone know why or how the cloud stays suspended like that while the bits get torn off? At that proximity, naively, I would have thought gravity would just pull the whole cloud in, especially if it's strong enough to pull the bits in?
I get that this is just porn, but something about the natural setting of this picture and her body type really makes me think about how terrifying and alien humans must have seemed in the wild in prehistoric times. Imagine being some animal and seeing these shiny spindly upright hairless things relentlessly striding after you. Not intended as an insult towards her, but just, really picture that. It's an almost alien image even as a human.
In many ways I think rising prices could be great, but in reality, they won't be. With the technology available today, we could have even cooler games than we do, and more games, and more great games. We could have more diverse and experimental games. It would be lovely if solo indie developers were able to make a living from making great games, rather than basically needing to chase a dream akin to getting drafted into the NBA. Game developers are seriously underpaid, it would be great if they got paid as much as other software developers, especially since their work is equally complex and usually more stressful.
In reality, rising game prices will not help with any of those things, and will just make the C-suite richer. The one silver lining is that this may allow small indies to start charging a more livable realistic price for their games.
