That’s what we call in the industry “foreshadowing”.

Wildermyth is just so endearing I loved my time with it.
Taking the same character through each campaign was pretty fun like I was making a serialised demi-god: Doofus and the mountain horde, Doofus and the ancient threat etc. Because characters age though the campaign, it has interesting implications in the world lore. Like we’re an archivist document the various legends of Doofus, acknowledging where they contradict and maybe speculating on how the differences in each culture’s legend of Doofus reflects back.
Downside is I optimised the fun out of the combat in always having Doofus at the center of the strategy, each encounter then played out the same.
Nakamura said in a podcast all he would need to know is that there is a winning move and he’d be able to find it.
So, just one buzz is enough that says “in this position there is a move that wins the game”.
Kinda like everyone’s ratings in puzzles is higher than in elo because by the very nature of the puzzle there is a winning sequence to find.
In play, if I don’t spot a winning tactic I just move to (try to) improve my position. In puzzles if I don’t spot a winning tactic, I look again, and again, and again…
We all have.
At least “crazy cat person” has an excuse. When I want to run naked through the woods with the pack, it’s just because I’m weird… apparently.
Toxoplasmosis?
Guess not, that’s probably my bad.
That’s my bad. Thanks for the correction.
It’s always strange to see a member of the most incarcerated population on the planet wax lyrical about how free they are.
Not to defend China here at all.
I love audiobooks. They’re easy to fit into found time, mostly as bed time reading, I just set it going and fall asleep. It’s a win-win, if I’m constantly re-reading the same chapter it’s because I’m getting lots of sleep. If I can’t sleep, at least I’m getting through the book.
Reading a physical/e book means I’m awake with energy and willingness to do something, sure I could read, but I could be doing something else. I read a lot more as a kid, but I also had fewer responsibilities. Also less access to motorcycles, games consoles, bars etc.

That was me, I was raised Mormon so I had a lot of common sense that turned out to be unquestioned prejudice. Not a defence of who I was though, I was a prick.
I have the RG35XX + 128GB Sandisc SD card + GarlicOS + Best set go. As a toe in the water set up it’s awesome, 4 stops to have damn near everything PS1 and before worth playing, all for under a hund. Just add your few nostalgia hits that are missing and you’re done, like Worms hello?
I picked it over the Miyoo Mini Plus because it was cheaper on the day. They seem much of a muchness, for the most part the USP of either is meh to me, though I did use the mini hdmi for some level/life shenanigans once… I think I would have been happy with whichever one I got.
It certainly has its quirks with the menu button, I never tried analogue stick games with an external controller, because I’ve tonnes of games to get through before I think about Ape Escape.
They say that like wanting to be able wear a garment of two different materials is an unreasonable ask.
My preferred handheld is the only one I’ve got: RG35XX, the only thing, I play a lot of, that it struggles with is Future Cop LAPD.
I’ll eventually upgrade when a relatively flawless PS2 device hits my relatively low budget, or I get a Steam Deck. Until then I have other money sinks.
Not necessarily: consider a string of '0’s and ‘1’s’ both infinite and random.

No matter how long you look, you’ll never find a ‘2’. Same with the multiverse, not all things need to exist.
Personally I group them into sets of 3 by release I.e. books 1-3, books 4-6… Each set is consistent with the others in its set, but the quality decreases as the sets go on. Which is alright because the first trilogy is amazing and the final trilogy is fine.
More than anything, I really enjoyed the found family in The Expanse and that’s what pulled me through the series. I get actual homesick for the Rosinante after finishing a book. As for the writing, everything is “said” by characters if that’s any indication, I primarily consumed them as audiobooks so maybe that’s why it was so jarring,
Generally, I would definitely recommend the first three, would probably recommend the second three, and after that inertia will either pull you through or not.
