I haven’t seen a Darths & Droids reference in the wild in a while.

I remember just cackling the first time I read their Episode I comics.

Copilot is a LLM. So it’s just predicting what should come next, word by word, based off the data its been fed. It has no concept of whether or not its answer makes sense.

So if you’ve scraped a bunch of open source github projects that this guy has worked on, he probably has a lot of TODOs assigned to him in various projects. When Copilot sees you typing “TODO(” it tries to predict what the nextthing you’re going to type is. And a common thing to follow “TODO(” in it’s data set is this guy’s username, so it goes ahead and suggests it, whether or not the guy is actually on the project and suggesting him would make any sort of sense.

I’m going to print this out and frame it on the wall of my office.

If you like Mysterium, I highly recommend the successor game Obscurio. Its pretty much the same gimmick of art interpretation, but works way better for groups.

Instead of the “ghost” having to keep track of and pick art for each person, the “investigators” are making a group decision so you only need to pick one set of clue art. This means the ghost’s turn is way faster (doesn’t explode with higher player count) and there’s actually group interaction instead of each person in their own world, staring at art no one else cares about.

The way it’s set up also means the ghost can start working on choosing the art for the next round while the group is debating, not having to wait to see if they are correct or not, so it’s way more streamlined. All together just a snappier, more engaging version of Mysterium.

The UI just really lends itself to mouse and keyboard IMO

Yeah, that was my take as well. I tried playing for like 10 minutes and just the amount I was having to use the little thumb trackpad to do stuff seemed like way more pain than it was worth.

How is Rimworld on the deck? I’ve seen that it’s supposed to be “Verified” but it seems like a game with so much mouse-based activity that it would be really annoying to try to do on the deck.

Also, how does it handle mods? Because I may have… one or two… hundred.
