Personally I'm a fan of mining out a cave too much so the mountain kills me

mountains have become my default for building rooms. i don't build walls outside the mountains until i've run out of mountain to build under.

mechs got a huge upgrade in biotech but bug infestations are relatively easy to defeat (if you get them early). bottleneck them in a doorway with a couple good melee people up front in armor and a guy hucking grenades through the door takes care of them super quick

lol, yeah, gives a different meaning to "build a ship" as the stated goal of the game, am looking forward to visiting the mainland via drop pods, i dislike how well drop pods are balanced between resources required to build one vs. capacity of one -- need (afaik) 120 steel, 2 components, and as much chemfuel as necessary to get you where you want to go, and that can get you right up to the 150kg capacity of one

anyway randy random gave my single-person colony a wanderer who was definitely worthwhile to let join, only trait is sanguine (permanent +12 mood bonus), not too skilled and only has a burning passion for mining (e: and no incapabilities), which is a great complement to Tanya's lack of mining skills, so hes a fantastic addition to the Republic of Tanya

only just got to the "real" beginning of it, and now i'm all onboard. much as i liked the style and writing i was very worried that it'd be too much "ain't medieval nonsense quiant, here's a nifty fact about the early church!"

now i presume it'll be all the name of the rose with some added comedy from here.

e: also as an enjoyer of typography it gets a *lot* of extra points for the stylized writing

Yeah it's two hours of hBomb bodying this guy Tommy Tallarico with receipts, but there are eight billion people on this Earth and I don't feel this one guy needs a multi-hour callout - unless the second hour is about him being a secret Nazi or something I'm giving it a L.

It's a pretty entertaining story about a guy who has lied about being the sound designer for a bunch of very popular video games. Apparently no one has fact checked him until now. I only watched an hour while doing some work.

Yeah from the quarter to halfway mark HB is maybe re-litigating the 'Oof' thing too much, but then the second half of the vid is about all the other bullshit this guy has claimed and its a big long list lol

i don't understand how some dumbass who claimed to make video game sounds is worth 2 hours of my life

im glad to get the 30s rundown, but that's a long video. i could be watching dune again instead.

it seems like the grownup version of the kid in my middle school that told me he had to rip someone's heart out to get a black belt.

just to be clear me completely not getting it doesn't mean that people who do get it shouldn't enjoy it. have fun. i'll just rub some lineament into my joints and complain about those dang cats poopin in my planter as the world passes me by

a lot of news articles, for some reason, break every sentence up into a separate paragraph.

it is not clear that this improves clarity or readability, or indeed why journalists do it at all.

however, there must be a reason, or it wouldn't be so prevalent across the industry.

some people have argued that this makes articles look stupid and breaks up the natural flow of the text.

others say that since a significant minority of americans are functionally illiterate, the average person won't realize that anything is off.

there is still no consensus on the matter.
