No need to be so salty. Maybe instead just read what skg really is about because you obviously have misunderstood it completely.

Yeah. He borrowed money for a house at 1.5%. Then inflation hit almost 10 during covid and our salary didn’t fully cover this but was raised way more than 1.5%. Money lost value much faster than his debt increased, so the banks effectively lose money on him while his paycheck grows faster than his debt increases.
- Comment on Uber Eats or something idk 3 days ago:
Or in more generic terms, inflation is good if you borrow money.
If your interest is less than inflation.
Like my colleague who bought a house for about 1.5% before inflation nearly went to 10. Man.

Not saying it isn’t, but if somebody tells me it should be less than half of what I’m seeing it for I might as well ask if I’m missing something, no?

7 bucks? Saw that and immediately opened steam.
Am I missing something? That’s the only bundle I found for animal well…

Black and white are pretty overrepresented there though. Turning this into a sphere might help?

Had my deck preordered and am still using it regularly. I’m really happy with it and just recommended the oled to a friend. Just out of curiosity: why would you want to upgrade it already?
- Comment on ‘AI is already eating its own’: Prompt engineering is quickly going extinct 1 month ago:
Today, strong AI prompting is simply an expected skill, not a stand-alone role.
If a company tells me they expect me to be good at writing prompts at least I know I can dodge that bullet and just never ever work there. Nice.

- Comment on Civilization 7 Outlines Crucial 1.1.1 Update as It Struggles to Compete on Steam Against Civ 6 and Even the 15-Year-Old Civ 5 3 months ago:
You should replay it. It is imho the highlight of the series because of a few changes compared to other civ games:
- Focusing on the terraforming and colonisation of alpha Centauri allowed them to have an actual story where you uncovered stuff about the planet and its indigenous lifeforms while you played. It’s from the 90s, so there is no branching storylines, alternative endings or stuff like that, but even after repeated playthroughs it’s nice to have some progression that’s more than a tech tree.
- Having only seven leaders (and having them all in every game, no smaller or larger games) might seem weird and tbh, larger maps feel a bit empty. However, each technology, city improvement or wonder gives you some (well narrated) text bits of one of them, giving them so much more character than the leaders in your average game of civ. The hatred for Miriam has become a meme, which wouldn’t have happened if these characters weren’t extremely well written. Ironically this is imho of of the reasons why the add on didn’t work as well - the few bits that were added for each of the new factions just weren’t enough.
Although there are more differences, like eg a unit design workshop, the game loop feels quite similar to civ. It’s like they took civ 4, polished it and just decided to make it… Dunno, meaningful. And while that’s not per se relevant for in game decisions such as “where to settle” or “what to build”, it just makes the whole experience so much better. It’s still my comfort game that I boot up for another play on my deck every now and then.

Has there even been a Civ release that was great at the start?
Does Alpha Centauri count as a civ game?

Yeah.
Then somebody drops it and it just falls down to the planet’s core and eats our fucking world.
