We've hit over 12k in the last 24 hours, and I won't spend the next 30 days yelling about this game! We've made a beautiful game in an interesting and tactile format about keeping on when the world feels at the brink of existential collapse. I hope you will support us!
"Hwæt-EVAR!" "As Sif!" Bear Horowitz, daughter of H. Roth Horowitz, hits it off with Poul Hrēod, who is visiting from another mead hall (whose queen is H. Roth's former wife). When Grendel, a naive young warrior, comes to the mead hall, Bear makes Grendel her ward and teaches her how to fight.
it does feel like the transporter, replicator, and holodeck tech (which are all THE SAME TECH) need a full-time ethics officer taking request tickets yes u can gene-edit ur peashoots for your garden; no u can't copy yourself ten times; yes u can beam out the flu; no u can't make a copy of ur crush
I enter the arena to the pounding beat of “I Wanna Get Better” by Bleachers. My confidence wanes and by the time I reach the ring I am having a full-blown panic attack. The audience watches, in grim fascination, as I sob on the phone to my therapist that I feel like an impostor.
I dunno. Maybe it's a generational thing? When I was a college student it was repeatedly emphasized by professors and professionals in various fields that if you want to achieve excellence you can't take short cuts. Not significant ones. It feels to me like using LLMs for writing is a short cut.
Going from my Gameboy style emulation device to a slightly more powerful Android based one makes me really appreciate the sheer simplicity of the former. I find Android to be way too fiddly an OS for emulation, even with a frontend. Too many things getting between you and just playing games.
I had no good reason to believe that Alex Winter's time in the Criterion Closet would result in a bunch of choices for movies that I'd disdain. But I did. My apologies, Mr. Winter. My bad. The man is a cinephile who knows his stuff. Going heavy for Iranian films and UGETSU...props, Mr. Winter.
I have strained a tendon on the top of my right hand, so that if I rotate the hand or lift it more than about 30o from the wrist or pretty much do anything to put pressure on the tendon, I get owies. Naturally, moving a mouse puts pressure on the tendon. A mouse-free online life is...not for me.
Oh, r/Ireland. Nearly every single time an obvious marketing account pretending to be an ordinary person posts a pic of a pint of Guinness, it gets hundreds of upvotes. I saw one just now where the account posting it was only a month old. I hope they at least get paid well.
Patti Harrison starred as a cis woman who was PREGNANT and had said pregnancy as the main plot of the film in TOGETHER TOGETHER 5 years ago and literally no one freaked out because it was treated like any other casting of a female actress for the role would've been, it rules!
I can't even express how important it is to see someone who was willing to give up the thing she was best at, that some would say she was born to do. To only come back when she could love it again, and do it on her own terms. And then win a gold medal BECAUSE she found the joy and the fun in it.
