This is a nice way to look at anger. Kind of similar to something my therapist said a long time ago. #3 specifically is a huge one.

For most things in life I generally follow Adam Savage's advice: "Buy cheap tools until you know what you really need from that tool, then buy the best version you can afford."
However, when it comes to things that are related to safety or protect you from harm the more expensive/high quality they get, that advice goes out the window. Case in point, PC PSUs. You probably don't want your newly built PC to burst in flames because you skimped on it to buy a poorly rated PSU.
It probably would, butterfly effect and all. That's part of the reason why I'm trying to evaluate why I do the things I do, trying to see how they impact other people more versus in my youth. It might be small, but enough small things do add up, compound even.
Against the Storm! It's a roguelite citybuilder set in an apocalyptic world where you build settlements in a short amount of time to complete objectives and hopefully survive. While it borrows some mechanics from some city builders, I haven't played anything quite like it's unique blend yet. Plus the artstyle is pretty reminiscent of Warcraft but prettier.
It's in early access right now but it's basically a complete game at this point.
This just reminded me to finish Atelier Rorona... at some point in the future lol
Same here! Most people were very supportive and we commiserated a lot about our majors. And the same was the case for the entire engineering department.
The only anecdote I know about which is similar to the hyper-competitiveness in the top comment is from a friend who was a CS major in a different university but with a heavy entrepreneurship/business slant.
TIL tvtropes has those tropes. I only knew about the Broken Base page. I am so keeping those for reference.
Does abandonware count? If yes, then absolutely lol
My childhood was spent playing abandonware because our home pc wasn't strong enough for modern games at the time, so this is basically just reliving that while getting paid lol.
If abandonware doesn't count, there's still enough stuff that's ended up in the public domain to make it worth it (books and movies).
Apolinario Mabini great. Apolinario Mabini freedom thinker man. Very lemmy. Apolinario Mabini underrated. Goldfish brain connected Mabini and bussy. New name created.
