A traffic jam when you’re already late
Amazing game, what a huge mind-fuck.
To anyone going in fresh; role play a bit, avoid the monsters as you should. Enjoy the story. Existential horror at its best.

I need an APC pickup!
We had a LAN Party!
486 proxy box using RedHat and ipchains sharing dialup Internet for about 8 of us in parents basement.
Enjoying looking up websites and seeing odd dates like 19100 show up. Nobody died, outside of Starsiege Tribes CTF.
Year of the Linux Desktop may never be a relevant measure, but it was Steam Deck and Proton that marked the transition for me.
The deck is awesome because it’s Linux
Have you looked into bone conduction headphones?
Fidelity goes up (!) when you plug your ears. I use them in server rooms and on my bike (sans the earplugs).
Aftershocks is a good brand, basically anything with a titanium band.
Man, Star Control 2 was my favorite game to introduce friends to during the BBS days. Two player melee over a shared keyboard! The music in SC2 was top notch MOD/XM music back when trackers were starting to form a genre. Beeps on computers were the norm but you could hear a drum track over the internal PC speaker in this game. IMHO Tunic is the only game that came close to the wonder and awe of exploration and discovery. Absolutely a masterpiece.
Babu’s game room has my favorite YouTube review. I’ll let the bot pipe the link
There … are … four… bears
Wow, collapse OS is quite the rabbit hole. Makes me think of the bootstrapping work described in https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Children_of_the_Sky
Shout out to the Ti-8X users and anyone who remembers zshell.
I doubt this announcement is going to affect the calculators, but it’s amazing to see how many things still run off this technology.
Hah! The ambiguity of this title is worth roasting.
Add a spritz of Lemon!
Civ games last forever
I am on the lookout for audiobooks with music. Best I’ve found are podcasts (Magnus archives) and the ‘SCP exploring’ series on YouTube.
Just some BGM to fall asleep to, and some words not too important to listen to. I guess creepy helps too.
A poignant quote here
"It was a disaster so bad that a new word, Waldsterben, or “forest death,” was minted to describe the result. All the same species and age, the trees were flattened in storms, ravaged by insects and disease — even the survivors were spindly and weak. Forests were now so tidy and bare they were all but dead.
