Did they give you the therapy sillyputty? That stuff helped a lot after I broke my elbow.

I only know the local norms by reputation. I'm supposed to throw beads to it, right?

No disrespect to OP here but he's not fucking right! If some particular organization does not like their program start/end time at a particular time of year, they can change their own fucking schedule!

This actually seems like an ideal case to cram in a jenga tower, Dread style. Basically guaranteed safe the first few pulls, tension builds over repetition, you can measure growth off the height of the tower...

Again screaming to everyone sick of listening to me how we were robbed of a 4e Gold Box game.

I emerged from the Graveyard Keeper mines long enough to work on my cross stitch. It’s sooooo close to 50% done I can taste it (it tastes like embroidery floss)

I grew up on Infocom games, and my first online communities were MUDs and MUCKs. I often dream in plaintext. And yet somehow I accepted that episode as 'oh yeah everyone knows that, I'm just unique I guess.'

wrong, we should let them build hundreds of thousands of acres of solar panels and wind farms and THEN outlaw the data centers

I think the funniest possible explanation would be that they *tried* to make the Cool AI Flyer That Will Convince Everyone but failed because genAI is trash, so they had to handcraft every element to *look* like AI. Fake it til you make it, buddy

It's a peculiar thing. A publisher picking up a game for reissue and scrubbing the previous publisher's existence out of the assets was pretty standard business back then, but historical preservation wasn't really on anyone's minds

If you've got a Thing and you want to write down a manual for How To Use Thing, you've got two basic options. You can write a tutorial, or you can write a reference, and these are *contradictory*. Ideal: write two manuals. Practical: pick one or the other. No budget option: one manual bad at both

I feel like every written work should have at least one word or phrase that the reader isn't familiar with.

Keep the aspect where donking someone turns them into an egg, from which they will regrow and be reborn soon (unless you kick them into lava). I want to see what this awakens in the next generation of weirdos

Then when they grow up they can choose their own adult name. Make a big ceremonious coming of age party out of it!

Kids should get a generic convenience name at birth, just so you can tell which baby you're talking about. Ideally something with as few connotations attached as possible. You don't even really know what gender they'll be yet! Take a couple years observing the baby to find a name that fits

I've always thought we take an irrational approach to names. Giving a kid some permanent label at birth and hoping they'll grow into it? That's just blind faith in nominative determinism.

Another offshoot of the family tree is the Disciples series, which blends the combat system of Ogre Battle into a turn based strategic layer that's ripped directly from Heroes of Might and Magic. It's a really neat design space!

It's a proud tradition that goes back generations. I've read theories that the phrase 'The bee's knees' came to mean 'the best' from prohibition era miscreants lying to the tabloid editors trying to write about flapper slang.

I kept my freenet email address active into the early 2000s, until their system finally couldn't hold the tide against the spamification of the internet. Still miss it.

He did have a couple artists he worked with. Which is another point against AI: go out and meet a friend and get them to draw your weird-ass game ideas!

It's kind of funny how the calls for forgiveness always come before the calls for contrition. Or even any expectation that the perpetrator stop doing the bad thing in any way

I don't know when exactly I started feeling a deep dread every time a program or device pops up an update notification, but I hate it.
