I just wish its cross-platform UIs weren't such a mess. Particularly with its MVCish implementation, it was like it couldn't decide what it wanted to be. I really really wish there was a good, straightforward desktop GUI for .Net

I always hated the weird fuzziness, soft lines, and curved image that old TVs imparted on games, it is amazing to me that entire communities have been built up around it. When I started playing games on an emulator and pixels were hard and

Yeah, very little of the things they've done since launch have fixed the obnoxiously repetitive core gameplay loop. And everything except the procedural planet gen is literal copy-and-paste. How about, for the next update, they add ton

I didn't read the article as it appeared to go off on tangents that don't really get to the heart of the matter: SARs and everything else are super super secret and there are severe penalties for even cluing someone in about them.

Funny, for me it was like 30 euros at a thrift store and we were golden. I walked out with some really dope army-green tight Levi's, I still have those and I wish they still fit.

Yeah, there are, or at least were, a few. The thing about Berlin clubs is they care very strongly about the vibe and being cool, and/or protecting those deep in psychedlics or other stuff. Aggressive, drunk assholes ruin that so they a

The most likely reason is that you give off tourist vibes. My Berliner friend told me as such when I came to visit, we hit up some thrift shops so I could get some local threads and 'blend in' In fact, when I got in one club a ver

Either case sounds like some fancy mental gymnastics to feel good about uncertainty. Much better to embrace it and admit, "I don't know."
