Thing that really gets my goat is the way people are eager to fund this bullshit but you need eleven layers of analysis and a ton of collateral if you want to open a small grocery store in a food desert.

A screencap of a forum post. It reads: This is my fourth run with Ironsworn since discovering the system in 2021. One game solo. One GM-led game with me as GM + 4 players playing bog-standard Ironsworn classic. One co-op game with me + 1 playing Ironsworn: Starforged. Just started co-op game with me + 1, with another + 1 friend to be joining, playing Ironsworn classic with a setting shift to ancient Greece. Every single time I have turned to this system to run a game, as long as I follow its core premises, procedures, and ethos, it has delivered beyond my expectations each time. It's fun, it's engaging, it produces compelling gameplay and narratives. It's almost . . . eerie, in a sense. Like, there's a secretly a part of me that keeps thinking, "Surely this game can't be this good. Surely it's going to be a let down at some point, or not deliver the goods." But that secret fear continues to be smashed every time I use Ironsworn in play. It's a wholly unique experience of its own that is unlike anything else I have played. It delivers a level of energy and engagement that is unique, and frankly rare relative to other roleplaying experiences I've had. Maybe 1-in-3 or 1-in-4 sessions of other games I've played consistently reach that same level of engagement I've seen in nearly every session of Ironsworn I've ever held.
Everything is awful, but this very kind Ironsworn comment over at EN World sure did put some wind in my sails.
Type of guy who cosplays his software having feelings in order to avoid feeling personally responsible for how it was used to murder children is an increasingly common kind of guy in the software industry
I wrote about some things I'm struggling with in the technology industry, preceded by an appreciation for folk music.
Aw dang now I want to reread the old Manual of the Planes.
We usually just shout at each other from across the house like heathens.

I need you to know that my brain repeated "Leon looks like shit (complimentary)" multiple times through my playthrough.
RE9 was good! A very solid entry in the series. Probably in my top 5 but not quite sure where yet.
Oh my gods
I got this today after paying a familyβs back rent to stop an eviction that had been filed. I feel that weight in my bones, and Iβm glad she gets to sleep tonight. No one should ever have to feel that fear.

Ever notice that all these people who push Vibe Coding all the Things / Claude Code / etc seem absolutely *miserable* all the time?
That is wild. It's like advertising free credits at the casino.
That's a very fancy drip brewer!

Bazzite is also pretty solid! KDE's very Windows-like and games "just work" :tm:
Sure, yeah, why not?

We have had the technology to do this for a *long time*, so why are they doing this *now*?
Is it so they can say βweβre using AI!β to try and please investors?
If anyone is friends with any Georgian air traffic controllers, buy them a nice bottle of wine. As guardians of pretty much the only narrow gap still available between Europe and Asia that avoids both Iran, the Gulf, Ukraine and Russia, they are under some substantial pressure.
Where do I wishlist this?
