Bethesda reveal the huge Starfield Free Lanes update and new Terran Armada DLC

I really liked starfield. It was buggy, and it had a lot of dumb design choices. The main story was terrible until the last two missions, but the side quests and things were all interesting. I am still not sure which path was the right one with the crimson fleet.
As with anything bethesda a few thousand mods made it pretty good.
So I am sort of excited to see where this goes.

Letter from the owner - our stance on generative AI
13 Mar 2026 at 8:18 pm UTC Likes: 6

For the record, I am a fan of AI. I think the tech is cool as hell, and I like seeing where it might take us.
I read the article about the dev of lutris using it, and the comments under it, and realized again that I am in a minority in the groups I normally align with. In that everyone but me seems to hate AI and think it should burn in a fire.

With that said, I really don't like that AI is basically taking over the internet. Dead internet theory is no longer a theory, 90% of the content we read, and the comments that are posted at this point are either fully written by genAI, or "corrected" by it, and that I think is a bit of an issue. I don't care if you write a bit of code with it to cut out some thing you don't want to deal with. Heck, I don't care if you write entire software stacks in it, so long as you let people know you did so they can choose to trust it or not. I do care if everything on the internet suddenly becomes homogenized slop.

Humans need to continue writing, and creating. Art should be made by humans whether that be writing, drawing, painting, music. Any of it. Some places need to remain human, and free of the slop regardless of my, or anyone elses opinion of the slops value.

So you know, TL;DR Good. I really appreciate the human touch, and I hope to hell other people take up the same viewpoint and continue to create in the face of this onslaught.

(This comment hand written by me. I think I am human.)

These new Factorio enemies coming in Factorio: Space Age look horrifying

I like that my factory gets to continue growing.
I no longer remember what I did to get where I am, but it all seems to
work, so I won't argue.

Sober is a new way to play Roblox on Linux from the Vinegar team

Quoting: Viesta2015
Quoting: luapThere are basically three things that have been keeping me from just switching to linux full time, none of them related to myself.
My kids NEED roblox, minecraft (bedrock), and the oculus steam streaming VR thing.
roblox being an option now checks one box, and minecraft (bedrock) is just fine with the mcpelauncher. I just need steam to make the steamvr link thingy that wirelessly connects on windows work on linux, and i'll never look back.

I tried this, it works fine on windows but doesn't work on linux yet, last i checked anyway.
I have heard that ALVR is meant to work, i might give that a try at some point and see!
