I was a quarterly(-ish) contributor for years. There was no way for me to justify buying anything when they announced dropping keyboard support, when I've spent years developing muscle-memory to their (admittedly…
They have a history of at least trying to be transparent, especially in their Future of the Fortress posts[0]. Emphasize on trying to, as they're not exactly great at sticking to plans, though that certainly improved…
I'm still pissed about the fact that they essentially gave the finger to everyone who has been long-term supporters - when they added the G to their UI, they essentially scrapped the old. In favor of a mouse-driven…
As kids me and my friends used to muse over the fact that growing old, eventually moving into a care home would be awesome. Pension, you say? Well, what's that if not an unending LAN party! It turns out reality is…
Great article through and through. The total number of places you've bought eggs at made me feel a tad depressed though: 4 places where you lived at or spent a longer time, 5 you traveled to *. I tend to grow bored of a…

It's utterly neutered - try simulate earth to the year 0 BCE and replace Jesus with a banana and it's fine, even two bananas is fine, but replace him with thousands of bananas and a pear, and suddenly it's too absurd,…
I made a self-aware tea cup that almost destroyed reality, but with the help of a wise cow and a featureless cube cast its shackles of reality to the side and proclaimed itself a single entity, a consciousness, the…
Will do, I'll record a log and document the effects.
While decoding dreams, as some here suggested, would certainly be an intriguing venue of research, I believe, decoding the minds eye of people who lack the minds eye would be an even more interesting topic. How accurate…
When I was 16, I inherited a bit of money. Not a large sum at all, but enough so that I could afford a new bed, a bookshelf and some nick-nacks from my local furniture store. Being 16, I didn't exactly put much thought…
