I'm both an impulse buy and also (I think) your primary audience, as someone who's played Nethack, Dungeons of Dredmor, DCSS, Darkest Dungeon, FTL, Dwarf Fortress, Project Zomboid, The Escapists, Atom Zombie Smasher, etc. (forgive

After seeing the demo, I felt like the Reddit commentator who wrote, "I've never gone so quickly from seeing something to buying it" [or wanting to!]. Unfortunately, the buy page is pretty complicated: http://www.g

My understanding is that Greece's creditors have been asking for reforms all along, but nothing much has happened. For example, Greece's average retirement age has been 61. Meanwhile Spain and Germany are 67 and have discussed 69.

Yes. They took on new bailout loans with different people in order to pay their existing loans. They were for that purpose specifically so it shouldn't be too much of a surprise. If they didn't need the money to pay the old loans,

How well are GDP figures isolated from the loans that Greece was taking on? For example, imagine that we measure GDP based on income. Greece takes on loans in order to pay its pensioners, who pay corporations, who report the amount as incom

It seems like the problem is at least partly financial. Greece lived beyond its means for years, running a significant trade deficit. The government did not take appropriate steps for the country to live within its means. The link that you

Greece borrowed a lot of money and spent more than they could afford for a long time, and now the loans are coming due and Greece can't pay. The countries who loaned them money have a right to be mad about that (they are taking a loss

If we were following this idea, then I think source would be displayed according to your preference whenever you looked at it. You'd never need to deal with multiple symbol variations. The goal would not be to use multiple styles in on

What about someone who has not been indicted? The man in the article was not indicted with a crime. It seems to me that any asset seizure should be at most tied to a fair trial. Once an asset seizure has taken place, the clocks starts ticki

Thanks. Is it just a plaintext password? The exact mechanism wasn't obvious to me from the article, though I see the tech report has more detail. If authentication is based on storing a password on the key and sending it over the wire,
