  • Ich habe in der letzten Woche Slay the Princess komplett durchgespielt und bin sehr begeistert von dem Spiel. Es ist zwar nicht so auf der Meta-Ebene wie zum Beispiel Stanley Parable, was einige Reviews angedeutet haben, aber mir hat es trotzdem sehr gefallen. Es ist im Prinzip eine Visual Novel, die aus zwei Charakteren und deren Interaktionen besteht. Und durch die Limitierung auf nur diese zwei wird es auch sehr interaktiv und kann dem Spieler viel Freiraum in der Verhaltensweise zulassen. Es kann passieren, dass auf einmal nach 3 Stunden auf eine Handlung vom Spieler in den ersten 10 Minuten des Spiels verwiesen wird.

    It’s not so much nature lovers but social media “content creators” who are criticized here.

    There was a case I read of a man caring for a beautiful patch of flowers, but then it got famous on social media and those assholes went there in buses, took pictures lying in there and destroyed it. Heartbreaking to read about that one. Sadly I can’t find that specific case anymore, but there are enough articles about the problem, like this one.




  • Thanks for sharing your work here, I especially like your interesting cast of characters a lot!

    It is rare in a fictional work to see somebody truly believe in a religion but not liking (all of) it. In the D&D setting they could choose to believe in another god and then they go into that after life, if they stay true to that new believe, right? It’s an interesting perspective to accept a believe based metaphysical thing as it is, even if you don’t like the whole package (ideals+after life).

    And rumors regarding past events need to be rumors far more often! =D

    Here is my try at explaining it in layman terms, but I’m not 100% sure I got the meme completely right. I didn’t do protein crystallography, only organometallics.

    Crystallography is the dark magic art of turning nice really small crystals into pictures of molecules (or more precisely: 3D maps of electron density) The scientist in the meme wanted to measure the same protein, but under different pH conditions, so either adding some acid or some base while the crystals form. Then they hopefully get different structures at different pH values and can make a nice video animation like a flipbook to show the change in structure.

    And I think the meme makes fun of the fact that the scientist did this experiment with a certain expectation and then that expectation happens but the scientist is surprised by it happening.

    They chose a protein which is a reductase, meaning it can reduce the oxidation state of certain molecules. Such a reduction reaction is often dependant on pH value in organism (I think), therefore changing the pH value changes what the protein will do in the crystallization solution.
