Roguelike: The Roguelike Adventure usually has ascii graphics because the discourse is often conducted in text on social media, game sites, and Reddit. Sometimes the discourse happens on YouTube. This loses RL: TRLA a point in the Berlin Interpretation of the Berlin Interpretation, so some purists…

Roguelike (the concept) is, itself, actually playing a roguelike. Every discourse cycle starts from scratch, retreading the same beginner levels. Are you getting tired of this discourse? That’s the hunger meter.

This seems like an important article, but that headline... oof. For a second there, I was worried something terrible (anything crypto or AI, specifically) had happened to Super Smash Bros.

Big if true!
I’ve never seen any gold-standard, double-blind, randomized clinical studies for any of those claims, let alone an absurd preponderance of replications and meta analyses to support that whole list of claims.
You’re just all so mysterious. You say, “we exist IRL,” but who can be sure?

Umm, that’s mighty bold of you to assume that any of us and all of this don‘t only exist as a 16th century* European’s fantasy.

I know times are tough, but even independent journalists should prioritize their budget so they can afford the scare quotes in ”keep ‘all the money.’”

Are you saying it’s a real flare gun or the Nerf Flare Gun? To me, it looks like a cross between the latter and the Jolt.

I think the point is that using masking tape to obscure an already-broken Humpty Dumpty is even worse.

Do any of the core 4 even want more input into and responsibility for making decisions? Are there specific aspects of your glamorous founder/editor/entrepreneurial life that they aspire to? Anyone seem to feel slighted or undervalued? If not, idk, maybe don't borrow tomorrow's trouble today?

Is there not already a surprisingly specific Crusader Kings expansion for that?
Based on some cursory googling of the Haudenosaunee, I‘m curious if you have played King of Dragon Pass. It’s about fantasy vikings, but mechanically, it might sort of rhyme with what you’re looking for. It’s atypical.

Good/bad news: This has been around for a while. In my finance classes, I have a TurboTax example/problem: "Get your refund now for $50 so you don't have to wait three to five weeks for the IRS." For a typical refund, Intuit makes a 70% return on these disguised loans! :(
