My gosh, successfully solving one of the puzzles in *Big Walk* made me cry (positive tears, to be clear). That's definitely the first time an adventure game's done that for me!

I got some good photos of the partial eclipse in Zürich today, but to be fair all of them were... eclipsed (😎) by this once in a lifetime unplanned shot from a friend of mine. Luck + preparation always wins. Also on reddit […] [Original post on mastodon.delroth.net]

I am trying but the contrast is so hard to convey!!! Like the moon was not black at all like you see in pictures, you see different dancing greys but with the most impeccable contrast you ever seen and the golden rays leaking almost too saturated that it looks like rainbows but in only warm tones

Binder Clips Georg, who requested 50 binder clips, is an outlier and has been excluded from the study (from Xu, Schwarz, and Wyer, "Hunger promotes acquisition of nonfood objects", www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.14177… )
Exclusions.

One participant in the hunger condition requested 50 binder clip samples, which was more than 7 SDs away from the sample mean (mean = 3.90, SD = 6.48). One participant did not follow the instructions to complete the binder clip survey. The data from these two participants were excluded from further analyses. One participant reported a potential food allergy and skipped the blind taste test. However, because this participant was in the hunger condition and the taste test was introduced after the binder clip survey, the responses to the binder clip survey were unaffected. Therefore, the data from this participant were included in the analyses.

Well, if you can believe it, I dealt into twitch.tv/chiqn_p 's 13 Orphans hand at the OffKai riichi mahjong tables yesterday
Chiqn_p's completed Riichi Mahjong hand, viewed from the opposite side. Chiqn had 13 of the tiles needed: white dragon, two green dragons, red dragon, south wind, north wind, west wind, east wind, one pin, nine sou, one sou, nine man, one man. The only tile remaining is the 9 pin, pictured left, ron'd from me. Chiqn's discards are also suspiciously 13 Orphans-looking; no terminals or honors at all.

That world is basically gone, but it’s still true. There are all the very valid consumer rights points and the knock-on externalities and all that. And then there’s also the fact that physical things that link humans to other humans are just better for the soul. It’s ok to mourn that!

omg, Periphery was amazing to see live! Matt has so much fun with his drum parts; it's such a joy and honestly refreshing to see him play. Also they did Wildfire!!

the duality of riichi mahjong, in 2 games:
On hand 1 of a riichi mahjong game, Josh immediately wins by ron'ing a massive 12-han hand, taking 36,000 points from me. This makes my point total negative and the game immediately ends.In another game, I managed to get to 92,600 points after a series of very fast hands, 5x as many as the second-place player and driving the third player into negative points. Yay!

This is a huge problem across the games industry, with layoffs (income lost), project cancellations (years without a shipping title on your resume), and base pay at these AAA behemoths dropping as everything else gets more expensive (need a second gig to feed your family). These are bullshit!

two German words that have gotten me amusingly confused due to similar-sounding words I knew: 1. »Katzenstreu« = "cat litter" therefore, »Streukäse« = "litter cheese"??? (actually: "grated cheese") 2. »Eichhörnchen« = "squirrel" therefore, »Eishörnchen« = ...??? (actually: "Cornetto")
