A good example of a time where you really need to full-ass it.

Algebra is OP

No, no, they have a point: The original native population DID do a better job… But then Republicans and Democrats.

I generally agree with the idea that “stampede” is usually the wrong concept to describe these events, and probably the wrong approach to understanding them. Even in the Iroquois Theater case, I think if you eliminated the panic component, the death toll would have been significantly lower (maybe zero), but it still wasn’t really the same dynamics as a stampede.

People don’t die because they panic. They panic because they are dying.

Por que no los dos? Crowd crush incidents don’t require panic (see: 2015 Mina “stampede”), but it’s hard to imagine that e.g. the Iroquois Theater Fire wasn’t significantly worsened by the (justifiable) panic of the crowd.

Of course the primary reason in both cases is related to the spaces that the crowds were inhabiting… But the effect of panic pretty clearly multiplies the effect IMO.

That looks really cool. It will help me live out my fantasy of having a handful of ants in my pocket that I can deploy at any moment.

Let me know if you find out lol

Interesting. How do you find that out?

Okay that’s one. But there gotta be like… what, 3 more tops?

Look, they only had $70m to work with, okay? You gotta make some compromises when you’re on such a shoestring budget.

Let us not forget the revolutionary idea to-- now pay attention cause this is BIG-- to prioritize player experience! Can’t believe nobody has thought of that before.

“Why do you have all of these screenshots of this thong witch squeezing some NPC’s head with her thighs?”

Oh uh it was for a joke post I made just as a joke. I can probably just delete them now, I just forgot.

Well I wasn’t gonna post all 82 but I just wanted to make sure I got the best by which I mean funniest angles. For the joke, you see.

Thank you! There are two wolves in my heart: One favors being snobby toward the way Americans say things. The other favors being pedantic about term specificity.

“Soccer” causes these wolves to fight.

“Football” is a term used to describe a wide range of field sports played on foot, as opposed to on horseback. It has nothing to do with whether or not you handle the ball with your hands.

+1 for “it’s unusably slow!”

I tried this last year with Linux Mint, and I learned that a normal USB drive just doesn’t have the read/write speed to even e.g. operate Firefox smoothly. There are different ways to address that, none of which really did the trick for me, so the best bet is to just get a drive with the fastest read/write rate possible. I’ve heard that it can run tolerably well on one of those more performant drives, but I didn’t try it myself.

Could you be more specific? Do you mean rugby football? Gridiron football? Gaelic football?

Oh! Maybe you meant association football. But that’s kind of long-- maybe we can just say “asoc football” to save time.

Actually now that I think of it, people just say “rugby” instead of “rugby football,” so maybe we can drop the “football” part as well, and just say “asoc.”

There we go, now we have a nice, unambiguous way to refer to the style of football that we’re interested in. Now I just hope the school children don’t mess it up the way they did with rugby, calling it “rugger…”

Same experience with my relatives. I had some family whose Macbooks were no longer able to update (for Apple forced obsolescence reasons). They run Mint now, and have never had a single problem since I first set them up.

Well, one of them called me because they couldn’t figure out how to attach a file to an email… But that problem would have been identical on Mac OS.

The main thing to know about Inscryption is that you wanna know as little as possible about Inscryption before you play.

Also if Inscryption works for you, check out the other Daniel Mullins games. He’s got mould-breaking down to his own quirky idiosyncratic science.
