- Comment on Simcity 3000 Retrospective/Mini Review & Screenshot Walkthrough 5 weeks ago:
SC3000 was the last city builder game that could hold my attention and didn’t feel like it was constantly rushing me with no time to enjoy what I’d built. I’m sure getting older played a part in that too.

- Comment on fireflies 2 months ago:
Each evening from dusk till about an hour after sunset, my yard is full of them. By late afternoon, if you look along and underside of folliage adjacent to open areas you can find them ready for the evening. They have a little dance, the steps of which aren’t followed too closely. Let’s see if I can remember it. They stay about 40 cm of the ground and fly up to about 2 meters up. After reaching the apex of their flight they flash their butts, and then proceed downward and slightly forward in a jerking stair-step pattern. The entire time flashing a repeated sequence of flashes the same color as a yellow glow stick. They so this from late spring through summer.
- Comment on Avowed Launches As Steam's # 1Top Seller In The US And Worldwide 2 months ago:
I love Pillars of Eternity so I bought it immediately. Unfortunately, even though it has a platinum rating on ProtonDB I can’t get it the game to even run in EndeavorOS.
On another topic, while trying to get the game to launch I went to the Steam community page for Avowed and it was full of incel like posts claiming the game is woke and shit, or that even queer people weren’t supporting a woke game. I don’t look at community posts very often and was shocked that these kind of people are still around and can be so vocal without pushback.

Agreed, to a certain extent. The internet was a much better place when it took at least a little effort and knowledge to join in and participate. Barriers can be a good thing.

I don’t know if there is a version of Poe’s law for Apple fanboys, but your comment makes me think there should be.
