In the name of all that is good and holy, do not go down that staircase

With projects like these, I’m always torn between thinking that it’s cool it’s possible, and horror that someone somewhere will try to use this in production code.

I know I probably shouldn’t engage, but I really just wanted to spark a conversation. I find the trope interesting. I agree that my Good Place example isn’t that good, but still, no need to be so accusing.

I completely forgot to mention His Dark Materials! Hell doesn’t appear, but Heaven is portrayed as actively bad.

I would +1 this. I’m completely bald, and almost never leave the house without a hat, even in summer. It’s also important protection against sunburn :).

For something comfortable in the summer, I personally often go for brimmed hiking hats. A few that I like:

• Fjällräven Abisko Summer Hat
• Shelta Sun Hawk

Yeah, absolutely. My watch is getting quite old, so I was waiting for the Fenix 8 before I decided what to do, but at least for me, it’s definitely not worth the price. I’m most likely going to end up getting a Fenix 7 instead now, and maybe wait a bit to see if they end up discounting it to get rid of old inventory.

Last I checked, it was out of print, so I bought Unfathomable instead (reimplementation in the Lovecraft universe). Still good, but missing pilots, so not as good :).

I’m working on some outdated memories, but IIRC:

Germany allows dual citizenship now, but used to not allow it in most cases. In those cases, if you applied for German citizenship, you had to express that you were willing to give up your old citizenship. Once you were granted citizenship, you had a certain amount of time (two years?) to show a certificate that you renounced your old citizenship. If you didn’t, your German citizenship would be revoked.

The only one I really remember is Trogdor, but in order to keep it in my heart, I am a proud owner of Trogdor!!: The Boardgame

I finished Dave the Diver a few weeks ago, and I really enjoyed it. For me, it hit this sweet spot of “Remember where everything is and grind the same thing over and over” without getting boring.

TIL. Thank you!

Thanks for that link! That does seem very similar to what I read about in Machi Koro 2, and I think we will definitely try it the next time we play.

I bought Deus Ex: Human Revolution for 2.99€ and I’ve been enjoying it. I’ve always heard good things about the series, but never tried it before. Definitely feeling that Cyberpunk had some inspiration from Deus Ex.

I also bought Firewatch for 4.99€ and beat it in a day. I wasn’t spoiled about the story, but I had read a bit about it. At the end of the day, I’m glad I played it, but I’m not sure that I would necessarily recommend it.

That is a crazy process. But I’m happy that you were somehow able to get a new passport :).

Have you watched the show? The game is not for me, horrorness being a part of the reason, but the show was very well done.

My basic approach is: Esc works like in normal evil-mode, and takes me into vterm-copy-mode as well. Without doing that, I have C-w C-w remapped to move to another window, so I can switch to another window for all the rest of my keybindings. And I have C-Esc mapped to send Esc into the terminal itself.

I’m using evil-collection for the basic bindings, and I have my own custom stuff here: https://github.com/bricka/emacs.d/blob/main/init.el#L1054-L1073

Edit: Forgot C-Esc

This immediately made me think of Scythe, and sure enough, he did the art. Fantastic.

Depending on the complexity, there’s also abbrev-mode: https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Abbrevs.html

I do like a lot of meat alternatives, but I was at a restaurant a while back where they had a non-Beyond Meat veggie burger. And it was super good! I feel like it’s becoming a lost art, though :(.

My dad is the opposite: he wants every restaurant to only offer Beyond Meat burgers. He loves them.

Ein Freund von mir hat Zombie Teenz Evolution mit seiner 7-Jähriger Tochter gespielt, und sie hat es genossen. Es gibt auch Zombie Kidz Evolution, das auf jüngere Kinder abgezielt werden soll.

Die zwei sind Legacy Spiele, was heißt, dass man es mehrmals spielt, und neue Fähigkeiten oder Charactere entdeckt, oder das Brett irgendwie ändert, zB mit neuen Stickern, die Orte ändern.
