Dinosaurs existed on the other side of the galaxy!

As in, it was so long ago that Earth has done half of a great cycle since then.

Bude. Don’t go to Bude. There is nothing to see there.

Two separate pizzas for breakfast and lunch, got it.

I’ve been here since the API changes at Reddit and the sub blackouts that followed, and I think it’s becoming more interesting all the time. Back in the early days there was no point in refreshing the /all feed more than once every 4 hours as it just wouldn’t have changed, now it’s much more than that. The number of posts with actual discussions are increasing, and other than a few blocked users, communities and one instance, I like the people I’m sharing space with.

My dumb self went off to the comments section looking for a user called Big QWERTY

That is some impressive work

I really enjoyed The City and The City, it was a really novel and interesting concept about how far socially constructed concepts can go.

Perdido Street Station I couldn’t get into though.

He can still play Fortnite

It all makes so much sense now!

Legitimately, that sounds fascinating, go on.

After many many recommendations on here I’m playing Slay the Spire mostly, with some Valorant thrown in when I’m playing with my kids.

Exactly my thinking

“yes, it really hurt”

Doctor: Great news! We don’t need to use needles for your vaccination any more!

Patient: That’s fantastic, but what’s with the jump leads?

Funnily enough I was talking to my teenagers on this exact subject last night. At a basic level, nms appears to have what Minecraft does, plus spaceships. Why doesn’t it work the same?

For us, we decided that nothing in Minecraft is difficult to get at the level you need it. Wood is easy, always there. When you learn that you need coal for torches, it’s just in that rocky outcrop. Start digging, here’s some iron for you.

In Minecraft you don’t need to understand anything complex, until you’re ready to understand something complex. And if you want to spend a week running around on the surface and collecting chickens, you can do that too.

I restarted a nms game the other day and remembered that constant “warning, warning” as the planet inevitably tries to kill me. It was disheartening.

I feel like there is a window that moves with you as you age. At 47 I find women attractive up to their early 50s, and down into their 30s.

I mean dating attractive here. I’m not going to try and claim that a hot twenty something on the telly does nothing for me

And you get a comment

Nope. I don’t think the way my mind works would ever have led me there!

The old Lionhead game, Black and White, had a gesture system which was similar. Didn’t work very well, but the thought was there.

And my axe!
