This is basically a progression of how I dress for bed by season.
Although dead of winter I would be wearing a longsleeve waffle top

I never had one but sounds like I missed out. I also wasn’t thinking of rereleases or emulation.

I was actually raised by a single umpire and everyone just assumed I would turn out umpire too but I’m actually electrical

Perhaps this is a weird part to single out, but it surprised me
I mainly played on the 3DS from when I was 6 until I was 15, so I don’t have as much experience with other consoles.
[…]
The 3DS was simply Nintendo’s best era, and I don’t think we’ll see anything like that again given the current direction of their latest consoles…Curious if others agree. I would’ve thought that it would be the SNES era, but that’s probably betraying my age more than anything.
Great article! On par with gaming publications, and actually probably better than most Nintendo Power articles I remember from back in the day. Great job!!

I’m getting a lil culture shock because salad and grilled chicken sounds so decadent, but I get where you’re coming from.

I live in a kind of steal-y neighborhood, and not that I got a big neurotic dog for this reason, but I haven’t had anything taken since Ronda and I teamed up.

I heard of people liking it, but imagined it was good for its genre like BG3, or Bloodbourne.
Putting it next to those other two makes it seem like everyone should play it regardless of their tastes.

Expedition 33
Woah. Would you really put Expedition 33 in the same class as the other two? This is the highest indirect praise I’ve seen of the game.

Yeah! It’s like just considering these things is fun and enriching. You might let yourself get swept away in the fantasy a bit, but ultimately you’re telling yourself different stories.
So they only ever feel like stories, and not like, a whole to paradigm that you’re going to flash your BIOS with rofl. Just maybe run it in a sandbox/cgroup and see if anything actually fun or inspiring comes out.
Pardon the opaque metaphors.

And writing, particularly editing, requires considering multiple possibilities and disregarding the bad ones.

Yeah I remember loving all that conspiracy, X-Files, Umberto, past lives, lost cities, etc etc — all that stuff. But scratch at any of it and it’s always some of the dullest, unimaginative reactionary bullshit just a hair’s width below the surface.
Not to stereotype, but reminds of prison where everyone complains about capitalism without actually using that word (probably different now), but talk to them for more than 30 minutes annnnnd yup that’s antisemitism again. Fucking hell.

Not everyone who doesn’t understand ai is a troll, and there are legitimate reasons to want to avoid using it, even when it is useful. I’ve got you both tagged as “cool” on my client so I’m assuming you’re both capable of chillness.
Not to high horse you, but maybe a little bit; the internet is a nice place when you don’t immediately assume trolling because someone disagrees with you.

Oh my god that’s so cool I wish I’d thought of it. It’s similar to this idea I’ve been mulling over about a world where areas are fixed/dynamic based on how certain people are about them. But that is a better implementation than anything I sketched up.

Don’t these holidays cost owners rather than workers, though?

Yeah really. They should be more like campuses funding a hundred small teams each trying to make something they’re individually passionate about. Hell, even give them the IPs to play with and see what they come up with.

Fear of failure becomes self fulfilling, yeah. You get so worried about making the wrong move and losing money that you can have your spotlight stolen by a challenger doing it fresher for 1/10th the budget.
