I got really hooked on Armory and Machine, there is an A&M2 but I've never played it.

Its the kind of game that only has a mobile version, it rewards you for coming back to it like any bad mobile game, but there are no ads, nothing to buy, and I don't think there is any data shared.

The premis is you are work on a machine, making it faster, better stronger, more automated, and more able to produce things. Things can be in turn, turned into items that let you travel and fight critters. The loot from the critters can be used to make your machine faster. Its all a vicious factorio-like loop, and show how fun these mobile mechanics can be when there is no company taking advantage of you.

I'm so exhausted... This is madness. As a Linux user I've busy all day telling people with bricked PCs that Linux is better but there are just so many. It never ends. I think this is outage is going to keep me busy all weekend.

Remember the middle east? Remember vietnam? A bunch of poverty stricken farmers ~~kicked our asses~~ ground themselves against superior firepower, eeking out enough casualties to make an apathetic American public demand an end to the conflicts

Just want to set the record straight because the idea of "Kicking the ass" of the US army with a whole lot of of the smallest weapon they issue is disillusional. The vast majority of casualties in the GWOT were IEDs

Elder millenial,

I like physical books as a way to disengage with with the digital, which I am almost always using otherwise in some form or fashion . Maybe that's it?

the 2nd most valuable company in the world? Hardly.

No they're just switching business models, from paying for an OS outright to OS as a service

I don't think he meant anything by it. Just a way of saying "I'm done writing on the internet" with a certain style

I can't speak to curling, but in chess the womens' leagues are there to get women involved. There are no biological advantages at play. This is a 2000 year old game they were excluded from playing until 100 years ago. So someone could put forth a good argument that it's more about gender than physical sex.

I wouldn't say terrible but mid possibly. It just took something that already worked well and added a little extra to it.

If "thing2: the sequel" attaches a something kinda neato to the revolutionary, gaming landscape changing "thing1:the thingining" that doesn't mean thing2 is really better than something that significantly moved the bar.

This is why Fallout 3 is better than Fallout New Vegas and I will fight you all over it.
