3) finally, right now I'm playing Overland. Post-apocalyptic road trip, where the mood is tense and the real danger is *noise*. It was several bumpy games until I realized that the apparently high difficulty I was experiencing was because my roadtrippers were making too much noise.
So now we're going to sneak across the country in a series of stolen cars? Sure, sounds like fun.
Even with my new personal rule of "only buy one itch.io bundle a year" I have plenty of indie games, both tabletop and computer.
I am deeply over-peopled lately, so I've been poking around in the video games that I've picked up in various bundles over the years. Starting with the oldest.
In this first batch, three games with procedurally generated challenges. (continued in thread.)
I keep seeing a lot of writers and youtubers still using #AI images to illustrate #solarpunk - even Aeon in their latest article did so.
Could I ask you to help spread https://storyseedlibrary.org/ around?
If you know a #sustainability / #climate creator who might want to talk about the movement, could you share the Library with them?

#Persona leak continued (2/2)
Integration with Government Systems: The platform is capable of filing Suspicious Activity Reports (#SARs) directly to #FinCEN (U.S. Treasury) and #FINTRAC (Canada), and integrates with blockchain analytics tools like #Chainalysis to monitor cryptocurrency addresses.
Suspicious Checks: Some checks, like "SelfieSuspiciousEntityDetection" and "SelfiePoseRepeatedDetection", lack clear definitions of what constitutes a "suspicious" face or repeated pose, raising concerns about bias and opacity.
This is a big deal. I’ve been telling y’all that age verification was just a way to gather intelligence.
#Persona, a Peter #Thiel of #Palantir fame funded provider of identity and age verification services for companies like #Discord and the entire #UK, left their code base open to the web. Of course they did.
Let’s look at what it does, shall we?
The platform performs 269 individual verification checks on user data, far beyond basic age verification.
#Surveillance: Persona’s system screens users against global watchlists, including those for #terrorism, #espionage, and politically exposed persons (#PEPs), using facial recognition and risk scoring. Researchers confirmed that the government-facing and consumer-facing versions of Persona use the same underlying code, suggesting a unified surveillance infrastructure.
Data Retention: Personal data including government ID, phone numbers, names, faces, selfies, IP addresses, browser fingerprints, and device fingerprints—is collected and retained for up to three years.
