Quick! I need a game design idea for a 3D game that only uses a cube. Cube can be different colors. I need something to match Blender skillz.
@grumpygamer a sokoban inspired game maybe? Or a game where you move boxes between trucks.

@grumpygamer 3D remake of Thomas Was Alone

@grumpygamer didn't Peter Moleneux already make that game? ;)
@countstex @grumpygamer no, can't you see Ron is actually thinking about what to make?

@grumpygamer something color-shifting based? Like you have to change the cube's color to pass through different doors. But instead of matching colors, you have to pick the opposite color to essentially cancel out the frequency (also include an audio component where each color is linked to a different audio waveform)

@grumpygamer How about a game where the cubes evolve by eating each other? It's a game of survival of the fittest.

@grumpygamer actually, now I want to try prototyping this....

@grumpygamer A mobile game where a cube glows brighter and brighter the harder you shake your device and if you reach a million lumens you win a prize. The trick is not to yeet your phone. Game could be called "Dammit I dropped my phone again!"

@grumpygamer@mastodon.gamedev.place like tetris but you have to form certain geometric shapes of the same color using the cubes for the cubes to disappear

Cube Bert?

@hp @grumpygamer aye, I was just making a joke.

@grumpygamer Portal 3. Reduced to the companion cube.

@countstex @grumpygamer sorry, my reply was also a joke. To really pile on the Moleneux hate. 😅
-
@grumpygamer Tetris-like game with 3d shapes made of cubes!
@mike @grumpygamer Ahh, that takes me back…

@hp @grumpygamer ah! I get you :D

@grumpygamer higher-lower, but with dice.
Super complex I know 😆

@grumpygamer Puzzle game: you have a cube with all sides different colours (each level has new colours), and a pictude made of coloured squares. You need to lead the cube through the picture, so that its side fall on the same coloured tiles. From start to finish.

@levelbot I feel good about myself and this number.

@reiver@mastodon.social knowing people in general... They will get more bug reports if they said "whom"

@reiver I've heard John Mastodon personally picks those out of a tall hat, for each user, individually. What a great man.

I'm writing this in English.
Not because English is my first language—it isn't. I'm writing this in English because if I wrote it in Korean, the people I'm addressing would run it through an outdated translator, misread it, and respond to something I never said. The responsibility for that mistranslation would fall on me. It always does.
This is the thing Eugen Rochko's post misses, despite its good intentions.
@Gargron@mastodon.social argues that LLMs are no substitute for human translators, and that people who think otherwise don't actually rely on translation. He's right about some of this. A machine-translated novel is not the same as one rendered by a skilled human translator. But the argument rests on a premise that only makes sense from a certain position: that translation is primarily about quality, about the aesthetic experience of reading literature in another language.
For many of us, translation is first about access.
The professional translation market doesn't scale to cover everything. It never has. What gets translated—and into which languages—follows the logic of cultural hegemony. Works from dominant Western languages flow outward, translated into everything. Works from East Asian languages trickle in, selectively, slowly, on someone else's schedule. The asymmetry isn't incidental; it's structural.
@Gargron@mastodon.social notes, fairly, that machine translation existed decades before LLMs. But this is only half the story, and which half matters depends entirely on which languages you're talking about. European language pairs were reasonably serviceable with older tools. Korean–English, Japanese–English, Chinese–English? Genuinely usable translation for these pairs arrived with the LLM era. Treating “machine translation” as a monolithic technology with a uniform history erases the experience of everyone whose language sits far from the Indo-European center.
There's also something uncomfortable in the framing of the button-press thought experiment: “I would erase LLMs even if it took machine translation with it.” For someone whose language has always been peripheral, that button looks very different. It's not an abstract philosophical position; it's a statement about whose access to information is expendable.
I want to be clear: none of this is an argument that LLMs are good, or that the harms @Gargron@mastodon.social describes aren't real. They are. But a critique of AI doesn't become more universal by ignoring whose languages have always been on the margins. If anything, a serious critique of AI's political economy should be more attentive to those asymmetries, not less.
The fact that I'm writing this in English, carefully, so it won't be misread—that's not incidental to my argument. That is my argument.

I've been checking out @inkwell , the new journaling app on the Fediverse. It looks absolutely great. Fantastic work by @stanton. If you'd like to follow me there, check out @evan@inkwell.social.

There is the complete list that Mastodon is suggesting I (potentially) follow.
-
Moaner's CRYING TOWELS
only 15¢ from Johnson Smith and Co (1951)
-
It's "Whom To Follow" not "Who To Follow".
I.e., WHOM not WHO.
...
Also, I wonder how Mastodon picked those choices to me to (potentially) follow.
