PuzzleScript hostile takeover in progress!
Just kidding; I love PuzzleScript. This will be a different thing, with a totally different puzzle-defining paradigm (I hope).

Experimenting a bit with Godot's ConfigFile class to store save files.
For release I'll use a faster and more compact binary format, but it's nice to have these readable save files for debugging.

There's a new kind of stupid people! I call them "twicetupid".
They are the people that ask grok something (first stupid) and then begin arguing with it when it says something that does not align with their ideology (second stupid).
Usually MAGAs, and elon simps.

Unpopular opinion (or perhaps not!):
Individuality is overrated. Not only its importance but also its existence; we are far more similar than we realize.
I value the feeling of freedom (even if illusory) more than feeling unique or original.

@spiralganglion.com @jimmyhmiller.bsky.social @todepond.com I love the podcast! So many ideas dancing...
An auditory bonus is that when Ivan and Jimmy are talking, I can imagine I'm listening to a secret Severance episode in which Mark and Dylan (respectively) talk about programming.
