- Comment on What solution, if any, do you use for gaming in bed? 5 weeks ago:
A cylinder or triangle shaped semi-soft object you can lay lengthwise on your torso and balance the steamdeck at a pivot point on.
A basic clamshell camping chair if it is stiff enough works as a decent platform to use the steam deck “laptop style” with a bluetooth keyboard especially if you lay a thin wide book behind the steam deck as a backing to prop it up.

- Comment on Helldivers 2 is once again spoofing Donald Trump's wall with the Frontlines of Freedom update, which launches a new campaign "to make the galaxy safe again" 1 month ago:
Literacy is not something game devs are going to be able to solve.
First of all I am not invoking literacy in its general use here as implying it is connected to the ability to read, I am referring to a literacy in the basic critical analysis of art. I.E. basic middle school english class reading books and reflecting on what they mean or the ideas they suggest.
Second, the way art is received by an audience is the only thing that really matters about art, so your suggestion that the nature of how the audience of Helldivers interacts with the universe of Helldivers in terms of their realworld beliefs and politics just doesn’t hold water, the reason people make art is to impact people… even when it is “just entertainment” if that is undermined by a stoking of hateful ideologies than the entire enterprise of the artistic work has catastrophically failed.
Third, my beliefs on this are just as, if not more based on my interactions with human beings amidst grass, who are “real”, outside where there is air I can breathe deeply.

Thanks for the link! Yes Scifi but also fantasy.
For example, if we threw the upper management of all tech companies named after people and things in the Lord Of The Rings in prison the world would be a far safer place and I am struggling to think of anyone innocent that would be wrongfully imprisoned…

Don’t insult games by suggesting they do not influence people. Any such claim against art is always childish and naive.

I think parodying Trump’s wall is low-hanging fruit for a satirist at this point, not that Helldivers 2 has ever really tried for subtlety. I’m interested to know what current Helldivers 2 players think of the game’s satire. I haven’t played for a while, but given the trajectory of US and European politics at large, the extended riff on Starship Troopers is really starting to feel like wallowing in crapulence. I think the game’s writers need to, at minimum, start allowing for the fact that the Trump administration has no problem adopting this kind of shit-eating, irony-poisoned burlesque for propaganda purposes.
I 100% agree, the devs of Hell Divers 2 are dangerously clueless about the fact that fascists don’t have media literacy and that their art will be interpreted unironically by them.
