My top game is Tabletop Simulator with 365.1 hours. Kinda surprised. But I've been playing boardgames online with my mates weekly since I moved abroad some years ago.
Some really good games have official versions for Tabletop Sim, it's an excellent way to play.
Doesn't the space ship fall back down to your departure planet if you can't make it to your destination? That's been my experience at least. But maybe when you're almost there it doesn't.
From Wikipedia:
A contemporary article in The Homiletic Review called it an "impressive depiction of Christian faith and steadfastness" and described the two women to be in a "sisterly embrace". A modern interpretation by Kobena Mercer named the work as an example of an interracial lesbian couple, likening it to Les Amis by Jules Robert Auguste.
From Wikipedia:
It depicts two sleeping nude women, one shackled, apparently intended as Christian martyrs sentenced to death by beasts.
The read dead redemption comparison is so interesting. They would appear to be really similar, but AC is so much more fun to me than RDR. Especially RDR 2 is so serious, and I really miss the fun power fantasy of AC in traversal, mission structure, combat and so on.
Check out David Graeber's book Debt - The First 5000 Years. He argues that waaay before money people lived in complex credit economies, and that money only happened when there was war, so that you could pay soldiers.
Also barter economies only happen when people who have been used to money don't have access to money anymore. Didn't happen before money, or at least there's no evidence of it.
So a supercomputer is a physics experiment? A lithography machine for producing microchips is a physics experiment?
I guess a fair threshold would be "when it can be run and maintained by engineers rather than scientists". In which case, many quantum computers are indeed physics experiments.
Fair enough - sounds more like a problem with the specific study than with the quantum computer
In a way, regular computers are also physics experiments. As are fridges and cars. When does an experiment graduate to being a technology?
It's not kind for sure, completely agree. My point was more that even if it's unkind, it's not necessarily racism or bioessentialism.
I think we must be kind to individuals, but still acknowledge problems with groups. That does require a shift in mindset to not feel personally impacted by statements about a group you belong to, which is easier said than done.
Not an enemy, more like a rival. He's really good at what we do, clearly better than me. He lives a different life style than me, and is really smug about anyone who doesn't share that life style.
He always makes me doubt myself, but I know it's not on purpose. We have plenty of shared friends, so I guess we're actually more friends than enemies. But I can't help thinking about how excellent it would be to see him taken down a notch.
