not sure WHAT the Roman one is holding, but it doesn’t look like any recognizable weapon.
In this case, it may just be AI generated garbage. But historically, the Roman eagle was sometimes stylized holding bolts of lightning (as a reference to Jupiter).

Don’t even need to bring probability into this. Death is certain, and correlation requires variance.

- Comment on Is Civilization 7 not fun? 1 week ago:
Civ games at launch are often a bit of a mixed bag, and the games improve over time with patches and expansions. That being said, the game isn’t even fully out yet, and early Steam reviews are notoriously unreliable and undifferentiated. For your first civ game, maybe look at earlier titles like Civ 5 or 6. They have aged very well, I still play 6 all the time.

This one’s funny. I wonder if they’ll go recursive and add “igcensorshipcensorship” next.

- Comment on Control is free to claim for 24 hours on Epic 1 month ago:
True, but digital ownership is a fickle thing that depends in large part on how much I trust the seller. Between a >50% discount on Steam and a free game on Epic, I would still choose Steam every time, because I would feel like I “own” that game more than I would on Epic.

- Comment on Day 148 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots 2 months ago:
For me, it feels like a mix between Rimworld (colonists with schedules, traits, and skills) and Factorio (complex production chains, finite resources). Add to that a physics system, where everything has a weight, a melting point, a conductivity and so on, and you’ve got ONI.

My guess is lower. I’d put the correlation at about -.35 to -.45, so that’d correspond to an R² of .1225 to .2025. But eyeballing correlations is hard.

- Comment on Vegan drink Oatly can’t call itself ‘milk’, judges rule 2 months ago:
Kidding aside, dairy companies are embarrassing themselves. Everyone I’ve ever met just calls it oat/soy/almond/whatever milk anyway, regardless what’s written on the package, even if they don’t drink it.

Fun fact. Most people (even experts) can often not tell which kind it is when they listen to it while wearing a blindfold.
