Mein Worrtschatz ist durch ich_iel so sehr zerstört, dass ich zuerst “posten” als per Post verschicken interpretierte. Ich bin geschädigt und beschämt.

Für Versand ist die deadline übermorgen, wer die Erinnerung braucht: 14. November.

Apart from them straights not being a Monolith, I feel there is a difference between not being represented and being actively excluded. You know, one is bad and one is worse.

You can and should leave a “Need a ____ tag” at the forum then. Don’t know why the article is so snarky about that, the poster of that seemed reasonable enough on the first 2 pages.

Say what you will, but implementing all manners of tags so users can express themselves, just to specifically leave out one is exclusion. “Move aside, heteros, this is our game!”.

You can argue that they deserve it, that the developer has no obligations, that they are represented everywhere else and that they should play those game instead, but it remains exclusion.

Make love, not war?

Fewer parts = fewer parts that can fail.

Boeing should look into this.

The human of the future:

“Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?”

• Henry II, exercising his right to free speech.

Before you fantasize how this could be used in humans in the future, producing that single thought cost more energy than leaf sheep produce via photosynthesis in their lifetime - feeding of it requires energy efficiency any warm-blooded animal just isn’t suited for.

Still cute though.

Wait a minute…that wheat is anachronistic, isn’t it?

Ancient Egyptian drawings show wheat at that time was ready to harvest if it was from chest height to taller than a man.

Me and my 25 tribesmen trying to determine the ideal shape to please the big Rock (it’s round, Ungh and Ogh don’t know what they’re doing)

I have never owned a car that did not already belong to 2 family members prior. Surprisingly, I have yet to be kicked down the social ladder and sweep dung for a living.

Also, used cars are like 3000€ here. I have no idea of used cars, but at some point having them be serviced every year should be cheaper than monthly payments, right?

I try my best Michelle, but I am literally not allowed to vote in US elections.

The ones I am allowed to participate in however do benefit in fucking over US-Politicians at least somewhat.

So you would say it’s fair if he had said “It’s called Japan” instead? They glorify their recent past as well.

I don’t think how places used to be plays any part in how funny insulting them is. Despite being as powerful as the UK when it was last relevant and worse, I think people would still be offended if he said Japan instead. “Always OK to hate colonizers” as someone put it my butt, the internet just really wants to make fun of France and not feel bad about it.

I know, that’s what my “when have these things ever been static” was supposed to express.

I choose to believe there is a lot more to the magic object than the truth or it’s own will. It’s a mirror after all, what you see depends on who stands before it. If you ask to see beauty and the reflection shows how you compare to a 14 year old, that’s on you.

Then again, when have these things ever been static. Shrek’s iteration has it’s own will.

Whenever someone says they aim to make it “easier to build houses”, I feel they just mean they’ll remove certain standards. Not the “must have this many parking spaces” standards which we can do without, the “do we really need a fire ladder?” standards. And then the house is sold at the same price(+inflation) than before because the cost cut all goes to the builder, not the buyer.

If you assume the building company is exploiting every change in regulation (they do like money after all), small changes do nothing and you readily adopt more extreme views (and if you’re racists you blame the people with neither money nor power, but that’s expected of them).

Hätt ich ja fast verpasst.

Wird dann wohl mal Zeit, ein Profil einzurichten, gell?

“Return of the Obra Dinn” is the best Detective-type game I have ever played. Pure inductive, yet always logical reasoning. The setting of an Victorian ship, the 1-Bit artystyle, excellent ost and memorable story really elevate this recommendation to a must-play.

On something from this decade, Balatro is great if you like cards and rouge-likes. But it’s been so popular I don’t think anyone interested hasn’t heard of it yet.

Oh, and as others have pointed out and I’d hate myself for not mentioning it, Tunic is great as well. It’s a love-letter to the instruction book, and makes one really feel like playing an old game and relying on an instruction book, while not being all that great at reading, like some may remember from their childhood. But with modern game design and what others call Dark-soul mechanics (idk, I have never played a Fromsoft game).
