My personal theory is that it boils down to how many people it takes to make games (too many to be useful imo). This is probably a sympton of

"hey, what feature can the new guy work on?"

"idfk make him add toenails or something"

It feels like new games are just more of the same, with no real meaning. However I recently started playing "Return of the Obra Dihn" and love open ended deduction in it. It feels like I'm actually figuring things out by myself without being handheld through it. Are there any other games that don't coddle the player that you guys recommend?

"IT is mainly introverts doing mysterious stuff no one understands"

It is a very cooperative field where everyone has different roles with different responsibilities, but everyone has a vague idea what everyone else is doing. Most of the time is spent making sure everyone else can also use the systems you build, not just yourself.

Thought this was a political alignment chart

They help quitting since you only have to deal with the physical act of smoking (which in of itself is a very ingrained act) without dealing with nicotine withdrawal

The games they release are complete in them selves, and with 15-20€ dlces every ~6 months they keep the games fresh with new content.

People rarely complain that features are missing from their games until it gets added in a DLC. Then suddenly it's a mandatory feature.

Personally I have three accounts. This is my main, but I have a reserve for stuff and one for my local region/language. What about you?

A coffee grinder. Freshly grinded beans taste so different from normal preground coffee.

Personally never had a problem with Victoria 3. A bit buggy on release but nothing game breaking

Mine is to to keep chocolate in the fridge. It's a lot crunchier and has more chocolate taste.

Mine would be "Subhuman Sweden player" on War Thunder.

Most of the problems in the current internet landscape is caused by the cost of centralized servers. What problems are stopping us from running the fediverse on a peer to peer torrent based network? I would assume latency, but couldn't that be solved by larger pre caching in clients? Of course interaction and authentication should be handled centrally, but media sharing which is the largest strain on servers could be eased by clients sending media between each other. What am I missing? Torrenting seems to be such an elegant solution.

From an IT perspective, blockchain technology is a solution in search of a problem. From an environmental perspective, crypto is a disaster. From an economical perspective it's too unstable to be anything but gambling.

Buying drugs over the internet is the only real reason crypto currencies can be useful. Hell even in person it's better to use cash.
