  • Okay, I've just a few articles and they are indeed very good. With practical examples and suggestions about how to implement the tips.

    Calling all refugees! *Reddugees?* What has your experience been since migrating from Reddit to Lemmy?

  • Thanks to you, I've been able to subscribe to many new communities. Somehow, the search bar here a lemm.ee did not work, or only for a few communities. I've been adding communities manually with the search bar, and it works !

    What kind of content would people like to see here?

  • Yes, that's why I said (re)becoming a reality when I mentioned it. There were many such towns in my country, probably inspired by Ford (I mean, with the impact he had, of course they had to be), and some where even older. That being said, I had not heard specifically about Fordlândia, I'll be going down this rabbit hole now, thanks !

    What kind of content would people like to see here?

  • Ah yes sorry, I'll try to be clear. It was a flair of posts for news that are at the intersection between our close (or potentially close) future/present and the setting of shadowrun. For example, an user submitted this article, pertaining to the defunding of police by a rich individual who at the same time invested a lot of money in private security group: https://nypost.com/2023/05/26/ebay-founder-pierre-omidyar-gives-nearly-2m-to-defund-police/ Of course this is reminescent of all the security corp in universe (Lone star, Knight Errant).

    Another post was a post that discussed a news where some researcher apparently made progress towards decoding the impulses of the brain in term of exact thought: https://www.artisana.ai/articles/gpt-ai-enables-scientists-to-passively-decode-thoughts-in-groundbreaking The user then made the link between this kind of research and the possibility it could evolve in the shadowrun datajacks becoming a real life occurence.

    Some news speak about the advance in VR, or the slow spread of exoskeleton for workers, the concept of territoriality for corporation (re)becoming a reality (with elon musk wanting to build his own town), etc. So basically, discussing any news or event that gets us closer to the technologic/social reality of shadowrun, and drawing parralels between the two.

  • Personally, one of the type of content that I somehow liked a lot in the subreddit (apart from all the posts about players and DM talking about their TTRPG games sessions and the chaos ensuing), was all the "One step closer" articles, not only do they help with immersion, having idea and inspiration, but I've also learned and discovered many things this way.
