- Comment on I am only now discovering the sheer addictiveness of Sid Meier's Civilization. 2 days ago:
Civ 6 was the one that finally got me, and I actually found that easier to get into than 1 and 2, which I had tried before. I did go back from 6 to play earlier titles and also liked 2, 4, and 5, but I keep coming back to 6. Unfortunately, I could not get into 7. I really tried, but I just wasn’t having fun somehow.

The thing is that it’s really just regular 52 pickup except that people are tricked into it by preposterous claims of it being “the best card game in history, maybe ever.”

3D version of 52 pickup is more like it.

Happy Birthday to this wonderful game and what is just a perfect example of the labor of love that some Indie games are. And thanks to Eric for all his hard work and dedication to his community. I probably bought the game about a dozen times now for different people and platforms, and I always felt that this was money well spent.

I think we can all agree that the best option for this story-wise is a rom-com centered around Karlach in an alternate reality where her infernal engine makes her get into all kinds of shenanigans while on a quest for true love.

- Comment on Microsoft lost $357 billion in market cap as stock plunged most since 2020 1 month ago:
Depends on your definition of “users”. If “user” means “source of personal information to train AI models” then households absolutely are users. I guess we’re entering a world where different users do different things for a company like Microsoft: Corporations buy licenses for OS and software, households and individuals provide data to train the AI products that permeate it all.

- Comment on I felt so betrayed when I found out Germany isn't called Germany in Germany 2 months ago:
The Saxons were a group of Germanic tribes/peoples. So similar in origin to “allemannia” (from the Alemanni tribes) and its variants in many other languages.
- Comment on I felt so betrayed when I found out Germany isn't called Germany in Germany 2 months ago:
in Lithuanian it is Vokietija, of unclear origin, but possibly from Proto-Balto-Slavic *vākyā-, meaning “those who speak loud, shout (unintelligibly)”
