This is an old thread, but I have to thank you for recommending this book. I ordered it and have been hooked! Incredible writing and storytelling. Thanks from this Texan.
Anecdotal, but I literally went from reading this message to looking down at my phone where one of my friends was re-posting (in support of) someone complaining on twitter: "Stop stealing from $ETHNIC_MERCHANTS! It's…
This comment is not germane to the point you were making, just wanted to share: I am a web dev who knows nothing of the Collatz conjecture, so I had to check out the Wikipedia article for it. Thanks for teaching me…
Yeah! The purple llama. The skill was probably Animal Lore. Best MMO ever! Thanks for giving insight into it.
I remember the vorpal bunnies. I seem to remember a bug where they would sometimes appear as an energy vortex sprite... Can you elaborate on why the creature learning was bad UX? Did people get irritated when the wolves…
I love any UO-related post! Speaking of killing everything in UO, in what would be considered the "T2A" era of this game (I'm estimating something like 1998-1999), I remember manipulating the line-of-sight bug that let…
Memories. What did we call this? "Server wars" if I remember correctly.
Working at Amazon is literally no one's "only choice" in the US. In fact, I would bet on it being a better option than most of what is available to low or unskilled workers.

When people report driving cars, having sex, cooking entire meals and then eating them, and various other strange behavior while under the influence of Ambien, saying "racism isn't a side effect of Ambien" is a snarky…

Couldn't that be chalked up to how insanely busy people in such positions must be in their day-to-day life?

Awesome. I've been intending to look for writings and talks by Raph Koster lately. For unaware readers: he was the lead designer for Ultima Online.
I didn't present it as my attitude, which any careful reader would note. The person I was responding to seemed confused based on the question they asked. I don't post on Reddit and you should keep your asinine…
Maybe, maybe not. A key difference is your friends are posting for themselves, but the suggestions are posts tailored for _you_.
What he is saying is that, generally, given the choice, women will prefer social work to asocial work.
Facebook ads are not responsible for the Brexit vote.
LoL takes a lot of skills and knowledge and experience to master, too. And I don't think it's accurate to imply that League of Legends owes its popularity as an e-sport to financing. Sure, it was a factor in its…
My thoughts exactly. The overall attitude of the article seems to be, "Wikipedia is supposed to be an encyclopedia where the content is determined by the community, but since I perceive this not to be the case it is…
I actually remember seeing recent images of this very thing. If you image search for "2017 May Day protests stalin" you will see many different photographs, but to be fair it does look like the same single poster in all…
Your previous article made me remember about and subsequently purchase PICO-8. I've been hooked since then. If anyone out there is considering buying PICO-8, go do it! It's so much fun.
Haven't you ever seen people who are artistically-inclined and those who aren't?
That was my first thought too. Sonic the hedgehog and his sidekick Tails was a fox.
