Carrd linking Games Affected by Itch.io Policy Changes.

Due to changes in the policy on itch. io, I've made a carrd in order to link games that were affected.

Some games include Kid at the Back, Your guardian angel, YOU and HIM, Duplicity and many others.

The carrd is linked below:

18+ Games on Itch.io

Here is a log of games that were delisted from itch.io with explicit permissions to share links given from the creators of said games.

Please note that the games linked are ones in which I have received explicit permission to link their game.

Some games might not be posted due to the permissions being pending or the dev not wishing to be included.

This also an ongoing process.

I like sonas. I like sonas where it’s just you but you’re drawn. I like sonas where it’s you, but different. I like sonas where it’s not like you but you vibe with it. I like sonas where you’re a cartoon. I like sonas where you’re an animal. I like sonas where you’re a furry. I like sonas where you’re an alien. I like sonas where you’re a robot. I like sonas where you’re a creature from a fandom. I like sonas where you’re a The Animes. I like sonas where you’re just a lil guy. I like sonas where you’re a strange incomprehensible creature.

I like sonas c:

Vaccines don't cause autism. Papyrus Undertale breaks into your house and stares at your baby like this

Until they're autistic. Sometimes Undyne comes with him and this makes your baby gay. If Mettaton is with him. Baby will trans gender.

If Sans shows up all hope is lost the baby is ruined and it's first words will be "get dunked on". Throw the baby away. Start over. New baby.

dick makes people mentally ill. dick havers, dick wannabes and dick lovers are all insane. it's like toxoplasmosis, you have compulsive need to defend and push and worship dicks all the time and spead your dick mania to everywhere you go.

this seems rational and grounded in empirical evidence

an old con gag that will always be funny is someone cosplaying spy from tf2 in a group of people and they've got a different cosplay taped to their face to blend in

musk is going to die in a Tesla explosion in 6 months after sticking his nose where it doesn't belong and we will never get a conclusive answer on whether it was a CIA car bomb or just a normal Tesla malfunction

Truck drivers in Michigan have for years smashed into an undersized bridge called The Big Penny. Normal warning signs have not deterred drivers from wedging dozens of trucks into its hungry maw.

So they put eyes and teeth on the bridge, in part as a further deterrent.

It has not worked…

I love how my town did it:

This was iteration 1, BTW.

Now....the orange balls are attached to a detector with flashing signs and if you hit the balls (or even get close to it), the whole thing lights up.

Here is the upgraded version:

Note the wicked low clearance, 8 foot 7 inches.

One of these can-opener bridges even sells crash art, though they're out of stock currently. They also have a youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@11foot8plus8

Montague Street Bridge in Melbourne has a nifty website: https://howmanydayssincemontaguestreetbridgehasbeenhit.com/

It’s doing pretty well at the moment, actually.

I just started grad school this fall after a few years away from school and man I did not realize how dire the AI/LLM situation is in universities now. In the past few weeks:

I chatted with a classmate about how it was going to be a tight timeline on a project for a programming class. He responded "Yeah, at least if we run short on time, we can just ask chatGPT to finish it for us"

One of my professors pulled up chatGPT on the screen to show us how it can sometimes do our homework problems for us and showed how she thanks it after asking it questions "in case it takes over some day."

I asked one of my TAs in a math class to explain how a piece of code he had written worked in an assignment. He looked at it for about 15 seconds then went "I don't know, ask chatGPT"

A student in my math group insisted he was right on an answer to a problem. When I asked where he got that info, he sent me a screenshot of Google gemini giving just blatantly wrong info. He still insisted he was right when I pointed this out and refused to click into any of the actual web pages.

A different student in my math class told me he pays $20 per month for the "computational" version of chatGPT, which he uses for all of his classes and PhD research. The computational version is worth it, he says, because it is wrong "less often". He uses chatGPT for all his homework and can't figure out why he's struggling on exams.

There's a lot more, but it's really making me feel crazy. Even if it was right 100% of the time, why are you paying thousands of dollars to go to school and learn if you're just going to plug everything into a computer whenever you're asked to think??

[plaidadder]

That last question is what drives me insane. You are paying that money to learn. Using ChatGPT prevents you from learning. By using it you are essentially setting your tuition money on fire.

You might not grasp that because you think that the important thing about going to college is to get the credential so you can get hired and make more money. OK. You have a credential but you don't have the skills it's supposed to stand for. At some point, you will need the actual skills; and you will not have them. Then what?

Also: the tech industry is not benevolent. If you become dependent on AI to do your thinking for you then whoever designs the AI gets to determine what you can and can't think. You really trust big tech to do that? You want to be in a position where you can only write what AI will enable you to write, and only think what AI will enable you to think? You think that's going to be good for your career or your life or your fucking...soul?

when i was really little and had just learned how to write my full name . i noticed my twin brother had really messy handwriting. while mine was like … as nice as it could be for a little kid. so i wrote my name in his handwriting on a wall and i waited to see who our parents would get mad at . and they blamed him. and that was when my life of crime began

[mclennonyaoi]

all joking aside it’s really funny that like little kids do things like that sometimes . my mom would look at her phone everytime she was at a red light so i got into the habit of saying “green” once the light changed so she would know . one day i was like “i wonder if i say green while it’s red if she’ll go” and so i did . and she did . and i got yelled at real bad

[mclennonyaoi]

though looking back on it what the hell was she doing relying on like a five year old . who was a chronic shoplifter and liar . for that . i’m surprised we didn’t get into more accidents

[servingpussy]

My mom is Deaf so when I was like 5 I plugged all the drains in the bathroom with towels & toilet paper and turned the bathtub and sink on full blast before we went out to go shopping cause I knew she wouldn’t hear it and I flooded the entire house for no reason

[mclennonyaoi]

ok that is some nasty shit i can’t even believe the amount of damage that would’ve done 😭
