su Animal Crossing, nuovi orizzonti e brutali abbandoni… (cancellazione isola)

Ieri, volendo resettare il salvataggio di Animali Crostini Nuovi Orizzonti, ho scoperto di averci dovuto perdere svariati minuti, perché non è esattamente ovvio il come… e un pochino mi sento stupida. Certamente ho pensato di dover andare sul menu impostazioni semi-nascosto di avvio del gioco (tasto MINUS), e non di continuare normalmente come se volessi giocare, ma… in realtà, a parte che è tutto mezzo criptico lì e ho dovuto perdere qualche minuto solo per beccare il tasto giusto di 5, ho scoperto che è comunque tutta una presa in giro: Tom Nook rigira la frittata e dice di andare nelle impostazioni della console, per compiere il lavoro, che questa roba della formattazione non è mestiere suo ormai! 🤯

E, un po’, la cosa è triste. Cancellare la città (ai tempi di prima dell’isola, appunto) era a suo modo un’esperienza mistica nella sua brutalità, perché l’entità di turno si prendeva in carico la cosa, ma prestava molto impegno a fare un discorso dissuadente, ansiogeno, per certi versi con un valore filosofico palpabile, pur di soltanto posticipare l’inevitabile, con qualche ulteriore paragrafo di dialogo ed una tripla conferma… Chi mai sarà il mortale giocatore per pretendere l’eliminazione nel nulla, una condanna per certi versi peggiore della semplice distruzione, di un intero villaggio con tutti i suoi esseri viventi al seguito, come se questi non fossero mai esistiti in primo luogo, e ciò nonostante dall’altra parte i tali esseri non possono fare altro che obbedire, sotto il peso del codice macchina che li definisce? 🙀

Insomma, mi fa quasi strano che Tom Nook non mi dica sostanzialmente niente di ché, dopo avergli rivelato di voler commettere il crimine. E così, dalle sterili impostazioni di sistema, compiere l’operazione è stato stranamente indolore, fin troppo leggero rispetto all’abitudine… anche perché, ovviamente, un ulteriore backup (…che credo sia l’unico attualmente, perché i precedenti non li trovo più) l’ho fatto prima, ma non è solo quello. Cancellare tutto per mezzo di un menu asettico, senza i suoni di animaletti terrorizzati in sottofondo, non da il giusto rispetto alla cosa. 🤥

…Comunque… Nel caso qualcuno voglia vedere altre cose tristi di New Horizon, forse, è possibile attraverso la stufoctt… con il post-diario che ho scritto stasera giocando, avendo creato l’isola nuova: stuff.octt.eu.org/2025/09/rico…! 🙏 (E, come ho detto proprio lì, non ho idea di se questa cosa possa reggere a lungo… e per lungo non intendo anni, ma anche solo almeno una settimana… ma intanto ho già 1 pagina, che è più di 0, quindi pure se andrà male sarà andata bene, credo.)

Some of the highest-ranking officials in the federal government used Charlie Kirk’s podcast, guest-hosted by Vice President JD Vance, to lay out their plans.

• Throughout mid-2025, X-Force observed several Toneshell and Pubload malware variants in weaponized archives mostly uploaded from Singapore and Thailand.
• One of the variants evading VirusTotal detections is the latest update "Toneshell9". It supports command and control (C2) communication through locally configured proxies to blend in with enterprise network traffic and facilitates two reverse shells in parallel.
• X-Force analyzed a new USB worm, SnakeDisk, which only executes on devices located in Thailand, based on their IP address. The worm displays code overlaps with Tonedisk and is able to detect new and existing USB devices, which it weaponizes as a means of propagation.
• The analyzed SnakeDisk sample drops the Yokai backdoor on infected devices, which sets up a reverse shell allowing operators to execute arbitrary commands. Yokai was previously tied to campaigns targeting Thai officials in December 2024.

Hey there! So I'm currently studying CS & IT and I'd like to know more about how developers & computer nerds alike are reflecting the values of solarpunk into their work.

Are solarpunk values part of your thinking process when you decide which software you are going to be making (for personal projects for example), or which company you will be working at? Are they part of the production process (like which tools or technologies you're using)? How much? And, maybe in a broader sense, is hoping to work on projects aligned with solarpunk values realistic?

Oggi mi sono sentita un po' pazza, e ho così deciso, di punto in bianco, di fare un nuovo esperimento... Dare una seconda possibilità ad
