Sincere apologies, I typed it correctly 2/3 times and messed up on number 3. Corrected.
You replied to jarfil with the words “this post”, it isn’t clear if “this post” refers to jarfil’s comment or to the article itself. Also, the use of “You” leads the reader to imply that the “You” is jarfil, rather than “You” meaning ‘anyone who tells someone to withhold their vote for a political stance’.
I always assumed that the Boom in Boomer Shooter was more “Gun go Boom”, which seemed to fit the genre quite well.
They are already doing that. Patherfinder 2e itself is going through a ‘remaster’ under a completely new license, it has all the OGL remnants stripped out.
Getting out to the dark and just looking up is a really good suggestion of a place to start. Turn Left at Orion is a really good absolute beginner book too, so I second that recommendation as well. One resource I’d recommend that was missing from the article is the Cloudy Nights Forums. It’s one of the niche old-style forums that a lot of amateur astronomers frequent.
You can’t build chests in space, so there’s very limited buffering or surplus options.
I think the biggest change with space is that it appears that the asteroids are an infinite resource.
It really is that old. According to their Supreme Court amicus brief: “Rising from its humble beginnings as a print newspaper in 1756, The Onion now enjoys a daily readership of 4.3 trillion and has grown into the single most powerful and influential organization in human history.” Seriously though, read that brief. It’s a masterful piece of satire.
Maybe add the old LucasArts adventure game Grim Fandango to the list, it’s more comical than ‘scary’. It has a relatively recent remaster with modern controls. Some would say the original tank controls are a horror into themselves. Though looking at the ESRB rating it is T for teen.
Quern - Undying Thoughts tickled that genre for me. As did Haven Moon and The Eyes of Ara.
Digging deeper, the Federal Reserve says this about it:
The FedNow Service went live on July 20, 2023. It is available to depository institutions in the United States and enables individuals and businesses to send instant payments through their depository institution accounts. The service is a flexible, neutral platform that supports a broad variety of instant payments. At the most fundamental level, the service provides interbank clearing and settlement that enables funds to be transferred from the account of a sender to the account of a receiver in near real-time and at any time, any day of the year. Depository institutions and their service providers can build on this fundamental capability to offer value-added services to their customers.
So it’s a system your bank uses to send your money to other people’s accounts at other banks. In my mind it’ll kinda be like bill pay, you’d go to your bank’s website to do it.
The game went to no monthly fees a long time ago. They only charge for new accounts and characters. If you have an old account you can just log in and play. There’s a player run news and link site here, that has a link to ‘Clieunk’, a client for modern macs and news since 2001. Though we haven’t always been the best at sending in news.
Yup! The GMs are a lot more active recently, adding things to the game continuously. And now there’s regular scheduled events where the GMs push stories and interaction to a level we haven’t seen in a decade.
Clan Lord. It’s a place that’s special in my heart. I’ve been playing on and off since 2001.
Riven is quite possibly my favorite game ever. I had so much fun just wandering around immersing myself in the world.
The Steam summer sale starts June 29th, so you shouldn’t have to wait long for that discount.
Universal Paperclips is a journey. What starts as a clicker game turns into so much more. It’s a free browser game, but in that old-time sense of freeware.
It’s just so heartwarmingly cute.
