Loved that game! Totally unique and really good, in hindsight the worst thing I can say about it is that some of its ideas could have stood to be polished up in a sequel.

I think the American strain of this in particular is because the right wing needed something to organize around after the Soviet Union fell, and figured out that it didn't have to be real for them to organize around it.

Does anyone know what the wingdings text says?

I never got to run this, but I remember after playing Prey putting together a dungeon themed off of mimics and getting really nasty with them. I imagined that after a couple rooms the players would adopt a policy of preemtively fireballing every new room before entering it.

You would get a baby made up of a totally average out sample of humanity, something like the-democrat or the-republican

Fair, it's a totally different situation, but I think that if nothing else cooperation and development remains provably the best path to stabilization and therefore reducing radicalization. Just imagine fighters coming home from fighting in Syria to find out that the rest of their family is making twice as much as they are while working half as hard, how many do you think will just want to settle down?

TIL this is a thing

Valve has been using exactly the same flickering effect for over 25 years

The flickering light effect was likely written by none other than John Carmack for “Quake” in 1996. That was part of a library of flickering presets compiled by John Romero in 1993 while working on “DoomED”:

neat.

holy shit. So a big part of the ceasefire deal is for the Lebanese Army to move into southern Lebanon and take over from Hezbollah - is Israel's goal to get the Lebanese Army to move into range of their artillery so that they can shoot them and escalate the war further?

I beat ff9 as a stupid kid without ever stealing anything, it's only necessary if you're trying to 100%.

Also if you pool the Americium from 100 detectors together they become pretty dangerous.
