I'm offline for a few days doing the Thanksgiving thing, hanging with friends and family, cleaning up old email and prepping some projects for year-end roundup. You know, standard November stuff. Here are some links to keep you entertained, my faithful reader:
- Crossy Road - if you haven't played this semi-mindless Frogger update yet, get on it. The isometric style is great and the continuously updating animal choice is great. See if you can get the Doge.
- Monument Friends - have you played the new Monument Valley levels? They are truly stunning and a breath of fresh air when it comes to gaming, IMO. This tumblog is filled with fan art from other like minded enthusiasts.
- Munchkin the Teddy Bear Dog on a Treadmill - this will not be the last mention of said dog or video but go ahead and familiarize yourself with the mesmerizing visual of a dog wearing a teddy bear costume on a treadmill.
- Roko's Basilisk - a thought experiment involving the future of Artificial Intelligence and a Matrix-esque world in which we're all being punished for not believing in our future tech overlords. It's a baffling path to go down but well worth the reading. via John Baldwin, of course.
- The Man Who Made 'Tetris' - nice article on Alexey Pajitnov, the creator of the worlds best selling videogame.
Have a great week!
