Kejora dropped last week, and I really don’t want it to fall through the cracks.

This is a hand-drawn narrative puzzle-platformer about a little Indonesian girl who realizes her village is living the same day again and again. Everyone else is acting like it’s normal. She’s the only one clocking the loop. Which is a special kind of nightmare, if you’ve ever been the only sane person in a room.

It starts off deceptively cozy. Early 1990s rural village life. Rice fields. Forest paths. Errands. Kids being kids. Then it pivots into “oh, we’re doing this now” territory. An eldritch-looking monster shows up near the forest and starts hunting children like it’s part of the daily schedule. Suddenly you’re sneaking, solving environmental puzzles, and running for your life through caves and abandoned structures, trying to figure out what the village is burying.

The best part is you’re not alone. You’ve got two friends with you, and it’s basically a party system without pretending it’s co-op. You swap between them and use their abilities to get through obstacles, distract threats, and access areas Kejora can’t reach. It feels like childhood teamwork, except the stakes are “don’t get eaten by whatever that thing is.”

And I have to talk about the animation. It’s gorgeous. Full hand-drawn 2D characters, backgrounds, and cutscenes. It absolutely gives Studio Ghibli vibes, but it’s not Japan doing Japan. It’s Berangin Creative, an Indonesian studio, making something that looks familiar at first glance and then quietly reminds you it’s coming from a different cultural gravity.

This is why I love games as an art form. The art is beautiful, but the real hook is that you get to step inside it. You’re not watching a time-loop mystery in a rural Indonesian village. You’re exploring it firsthand, learning its rhythms, and uncovering what the town is hiding. That’s the magic.

"Jean-Baptiste Fressoz’s dizzying history of energy consumption argues that no energy transition has ever occurred: each generation consumes more of past fuels. Not only are his claims ahistorical but they justify an unwarranted pessimism about the future."

Another Trump regime accomplice falls: Lindsey Halligan is out.

Trump tried to use her to prosecute former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James, even though Lindsey Halligan had no experience as a prosecutor.

Judges ruled she had to be approved by the Senate or a district court.

She was not. Game over.

Rebuilding the indieweb one tendril at a time.

This is what we need to do. Rebuild the internet, reclaim the word social in social media and put people before platforms.

We must uncouple our attention from the tech-bro, elitist, narrative-controlling monopolies¹ and get back to building individual, independant website presences. The indieweb.

Sites that are shared and aggregated by RSS feeds, collected into like-minded groups by webrings, boosted with decentralised social media platforms such as Mastodon, and cross-pollinated with interlinks and cross site conversations from individual posts.

Subvert, bypass, and starve the big platforms of their attention oxygen. Let them suffocate in a circle-jerk of AI generated slop.

There is now a growing movement of people dumping the scroll-gatekeepers, and building their own cheap, simple (often retro looking) independant websites.

Here is an example: Daryl Sun has a simple site that is packed with information and interesting links for anyone spending a little time to click rather than scroll (just like here).

In the spirit of re-wilding the web and creating interesting tendrils, I have updated my own ABOUT PAGE to let you know far more about me than you ever knew you wanted to know. It is a work in progress and will grow over time.

Another great example is Brennan, who writes some really interesting stuff and has recently begun moving his focus from posting on Medium to growing his independent site.

He always has tons of interesting outgoing links, is a member of a heap of webrings, as well as including a slash page of all his interests and projects.

I am gaining a lot of inspiration from this movement and urge you to consider dropping out of the shittosphere of big social media and spending that newfound scroll time creating your own independent online presence.

Let us tear the whole thing down and rebuild it fit for purpose.

If you already have a indie website drop me a link in the comments….I would love to follow and share.

Renee Nicole Good’s family have released preliminary autopsy details.

It’s bad.

She was shot three times and the first two shots were non lethal.

One to her forearm and one to her right breast which missed all major organs.

She could have survived that.

Jonathan Ross was well outside the path of the vehicle at that point and leaned into the driver’s side window to deliver the third shot.

It went through her left temple and exited the right side of her head.

It was murder. Plain and simple.

Every ICE agent who failed to render aid should be charged as an accessory, and Ross should be arrested immediately.

The government must stop covering for killers.

Dotaz do pléna, než se obrátím na odborníky.
Mám kombinovaný plynový kotel (stará Destila DPL 25) a 150l bojler. Ten je propojen s vodou, která jde na ohřev radiátorů. Oba kohouty jsou otevřené. Bojler se spíná jen na tzv. noční proud.
Problém je v tom, že voda je v něm prostě vlažná. Jak to, co je špatně? Odtéká voda z bojleru do radiátorů a už se nestihne ohřát? Co mám jak ověřit?

Žena už je z toho nervní, asi zruším noční proud a budu platit o 10000 Kč ročně víc, ať mám klid.

#AndroidAppRain at apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/?radd=1… tonight brought you 15 updated and 1 added apps:

* Compressor: a lightning fast, ad free, super lightweight native video compressor 🛡️

This toot comes delayed as a lot of RBs failed today. Luckily we were able to fix most of them already; for the remaining ones, issues are open with the corresponding devs.

Enjoy your #free #Android #apps with the #IzzyOnDroid repository

IzzyOnDroid F-Droid Repository

This is a repository of apps to be used with your F-Droid client. Applications in this repository are official binaries built by the original application developers, taken from their resp. repositories (mostly Github, GitLab, Codeberg).

It's not GNOME, it's not KDE, it's not the new Vanilla OS DE, it's new, uses <100M of memory, is accessible (for real) and uses GTK4 (but not libadwaita).
