  • I've played so many strategy games over the last couple months and I think my favourite is still Dominions. The high level of abstraction and dedication to doing as much weird shit as possible is like catnip. I don't even go for that many of the factions, it's just T'ien Ch'i and Marignon that I play.

    That said, playing four hours of Songs of Syx and three hours of Warno yesterday has given me a strange double tetris effect of exploding nato IFVs and mass-scale iron age furniture production

  • lemme tell you a story about a man named Deng Xiaoping

  • consider this: the trough style of urinal where one wall is just a large continuous urinal allows for an incredible amount of simultaneous pissing if those with the stronger streams stand back one rank and piss in between their comrades in the fore

  • 99% this was a false flag

  • it's an odd way to play the game. It feels like success is measured in the number of infantry weapons you manage to produce, especially since in nonhistorical mode the USSR seems to get stuck in a civil war and come out swinging several years too late against a supercharged germany and italy.

    next time I'm going to build more surface AA and remember to upgrade the railroads as infrastructure gets strained

  • god help me I'm becoming irrevocably obsessed with the idea of hoi4 communist france in nonhistorical mode. at least I didn't pay for the game. On my fifth attempt I managed to kill two million fascists on the maginot line, in the alps, and in the pyrenees until summer of 1943

  • Leech by Hiron Ennes might be in your strike zone

  • I've tooled around in Reaper on pop os a bit, and I understand Bitwig works as well

  • Still from a Marvel vs Capcom arcade cabinet attract screen

  • Hunt and peck seems like an unfairly maligned typing style when it's a great and noble eating style that has fed many birds

  • Stephenson is a better author when he's less comfortable. Zodiac is about a hippie who does drugs and has sex, Anathem is about a monk who studies math, and The Baroque Cycle is about preindustrial fiscal policy, none of which are near-future william gibson takeoffs. Still don't know if I'd recommend them, but I think he treats his subjects with more delicacy because he knows less about them going in.

    Termination Shock is real bad. Much more near-future ripped-from-the-headlines thriller shlock, not quite Dan Brown with it but similarly annoying. He's a lib to the core.

  • I do like that about music theory. It's abstract, but very easy to experiment with directly. I'll never forget the feeling I had when I shed one of my earliest misapprehensions, I felt like I could kill god

  • OF COURSE HE'S FRENCH

  • Just get 10000 people on generator bikes on-prem

  • The subtle strokes downwards from the lamps on the bridge are really inspired

  • Rooting through my grandfather's attic and finding, to my horror, a half dozen hitler funko pops

  • I love this ridiculous article. Nothing more liberal than completely misunderstanding the world and advocating for making it worse

  • Unsure if A Cure for Wellness fits in here but it's an alltimer
