Во втором сезоне «Игры в кальмара» показано ещё больше дворовых южнокорейских игр, о которых я раньше не слышал. Но, похоже, что любому местному это всё хорошо знакомо, а персонажи обсуждали там, как они играли в это в детстве. Интересно, что такие вещи, по-видимому, не особо проникают в чужие культуры. Я нашёл только три знакомых механики: первая игра с куклой это наше «Море волнуется раз»; игра с каруселью это наша игра с беготнёй вокруг стульев, которых меньше на один, чем игроков; а набивание какой-то мягкой фигни на ноге это «сокс» :)
Пофантазировал о том, как бы мог выглядеть такой сериал на основе нашей русской традиции дворовых игр.
Называлось бы «Игра в квадрат».
«Вышибалы» — игроки бегают между двумя рядами ведущих. У ведущих мячи с взрывчаткой, попадание убивает игрока.
«Земельки» — если игрок теряет свою землю, его сдавливают стенками пропорционально оставшейся площади.
«Жмурки» — у ведущего шприц с ядом, если догнал, то игроку конец.
«Классики» — над пропастью с лавой.
«Резиночки» — провода под напряжением.
и так далее.
Финал, собственно, игра в квадрат. Кто пропускает мяч, того убивают, квадрат превращается в треугольник, потом в прямоугольник.

During out talks with F-Droid users at FOSDEM26 we were baffled to learn most were relieved that #Google has canceled their plans to lock-down #Android.
Why baffled? Because no such thing actually happened, the plans announced last August are still scheduled to take place. We see a battle of PR campaigns and whomever has the last post out remains in the media memory as the truth, and having journalists just copy/paste Google posts serves no one.
But Google said… Said what? That there’s a magical “advanced flow”? Did you see it? Did anyone experience it? When is it scheduled to be released? Was it part of Android 16 QPR2 in December? Of 16 QPR3 Beta 2.1 last week? Of Android 17 Beta 1? No? That’s the issue… As time marches on people were left with the impression that everything was done, fixed, Google “wasn’t evil” after all, this time, yay!
While we all have bad memories of “banners” as the dreaded ad delivery medium of the Internet, after FOSDEM we decided that we have to raise the issue back and have everyone, who cares about Android as an open platform, informed that we are running out of time until Google becomes the gate-keeper of all users devices.
Hence, the website and starting today our clients, with the updates of F-Droid and F-Droid Basic, feature a banner that reminds everyone how little time we have and how to voice their concerns to whatever local authority is able to understand the dangers of this path Android is led to.
We are not alone in our fight, IzzyOnDroid added a banner too, more #FDroid clients will add the warning banner soon and other app downloaders, like Obtainium, already have an in-app warning dialogue.

Super Bowl Ad TRICKING You Into Welcoming Surveillance State!
During the Super Bowl, you may have seen a commercial for #Amazon’s #Ring “Search Party” feature, which uses an emotional lost-dog story to encourage adoption of participation in what amounts to a widespread neighborhood #surveillance net. Jimmy points out that the ad masks #privacy risks tied to AI-driven #cameras, data sharing, and Amazon’s broader surveillance ecosystem, including concerns about opt-out defaults and government access.
He and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger expand the discussion into a broader critique of social media and smart devices as tools of self-surveillance, suggesting public safety and convenience are being used to justify constant monitoring. Ultimately, it frames the commercial as emblematic of a growing surveillance state presented as benevolent technology.
