Absolutely fucking gross all around. ‘But he is a student athlete, so obviously we must not threaten his prospects!’

To be clear, you mean Convicted Rapist, Brock Allen Turner?
- Comment on chatgpt remembers 1 week ago:
Allen Turner iirc.
I guess the Brock, in Brock Allen Turner, convicted rapist is now silent.

I am hard pressed to take anyone other than him and Tali on any mission they are available for.
- Comment on America Hires a Strongman | This was a conquering of the nation not by force but with a permission slip. Now, America stands on the precipice of an authoritarian style of governance never before seen 1 month ago:
The same NYT that pretended (outside of editorials) that Trump was a normal candidate, not a demented clown bent on turning the US into a Mad Max wasteland?
The NYT that did THE EXACT SAME THING in WWII with their Berlin correspondent claiming that Germany wouldn’t hurt their Jewish populace whole knowing they already were?
Thanks for helping slow walk us into fascism fuckers.

It defined a genre. And had some pretty advanced concepts for the time (the first game I played with right-click help pop-ups).
It’s still being worked on, mostly via Caster of Magic. The ‘reboot’ is OK, but a bit too slavish in copying the UI issues.
- Comment on Thank you Skövde 2 months ago:
Or I could just play some sweet Master of Magic (DOS version)… a game so beloved it’s still getting actively modded some 30 years later!
I have such a ridiculous backlog to play. Such guilt.

Same boat here my friend.
1000+ hours, lots of intricate builds. Post Ashlands has been miserable.
With all that, still the best $20 I’ve ever spent in 43 years of gaming.
- Comment on Thank you Skövde 2 months ago:
They’ve gotten progressively more poorly thought out though.
Mistlands is glorious, but so fogged in as to be essentially invisible. I resorted to a mod to increase the value of the wisp.
Ashlands is just a brutal, unfun grind. Not hard, just relentless especially with endless pop-in of enemies. Not to mention even more horrendous performance… 20fps on a very high end system is abysmal (rtx 4090, nvme drive, etc).

Valheim was amazing. But it’s faltered so badly in the past 2 years that I’m just sad. Very sad.

Probably a fine dye so long as you don’t mind everything you own being that color. Not to mention the smell. And being dead of course.
- Comment on Think about it 4 months ago:
I haven’t really played the board game, as my wife and I usually get caught up in longer ones. But I do have childhood memories of killing many a brave group of pioneers with poor planning and too much bad meat.

- Comment on please be nice to retail workers 4 months ago:
Repeatedly.
I worked in retail only very briefly in the 80s and never had any major issues. I consider myself very lucky for that.
Even before covid, people seemed to be treating retail staff as some kind of lower life form far worse than I remember, but it’s absolutely gone insane since.

You mean the birthplace of the labor movement where the US government used artillery on stinking miners?
The current government sucks, but the history has some truly glorious and revolutionary moments.

I’m older but in the same boat. Unless those younger people are part of proud technological illiterati, which really pisses me off for some reason. Probably those 30 years of being an IT drone…
