Hey, I remember this! Shame it never seemed to go anywhere. Though then again, the wiki's still up? :/

Here's another interesting book review. It's about the promise, and failure, of the Soviet Union in the 50's. :/

Hey, so I think I managed to optimize Agora so it should run pretty okay now. Low power computers will likely still have some trouble, but the rest should handle it okay. And it runs a LOT better in chrome or chomium then it does in firefox. Take a look and tell me how it works for you? XD

Hey all! Decided to upload a copy of the demo for an old roguelike I was working on. Navigation is via the numpad. Anyone think they can figure out the secret of the rooms and corridors? :P

My legs hurt from exercising. It is a good pain. ;)

So I need a day job. I'm going to start by putting in some applications at libraries and book stores. Any advice on things to try and fit into my resume and cover letter? I've never done a cover letter before, so. :X

Something I've been thinking about for a while now, is that we're not smart enough to solve our problems, either individually, or especially, collectively. Not as we are. Thats why we should invest our efforts into being smarter - that is to say, being better able to understand our situation and solve problems, both individually, and especially collectively. That's what I aim for with my Agora project. A better way to communicate and discuss problems together. So that we can solve those problems that seem so intractable today. :/

Aye, that sounds good. What do we do for when someone is exploring the archives though? :/

Found a cool web comic. Actually got it off someone's profile on mastodon, but I forgot who. I like you're comic, whoever you are! It is very good.

@Angle That s not to say I disagree, but it's not something I've eve4 thought about much. :/

Huh, now here's a weird article. :/

Another excellent article by Scott Alexander.

Hmm. Anyone have any advice for meat alternatives? Pereferably something easy and cheap? :/

I don't know why, but all of a sudden my phone keeps freezing on me all the time. :/

I don't know the name or author, but there's a dude, and he goes through the Bermuda triangle or something, and slips into another world? And there are sorts of freaky aliens, and someone's handing out magic apples, and I think at the ed he accepts an Apple? And he meets some other people who went through before him, and they're really happy to have a chance to eat bread again cause there's no bread here. sci-fi, novel, pretty old? :/

Like, have you noticed how many of the posts on the fediverse are about combatting this Anxiety? "YOU CAN DO IT", "YOU ARE VALID", "I BELIEVE IN YOU"... It goes on and on. Imagine if the dominant Paradigm didn't enforce that anxiety? Wouldn't that be nice. :/

"Free Market" is such a loaded term. What you have are markets of varying degrees of freedom. Not the same thing. :/

No but seriously, "One of the big functions of capitalism these days is to make everyone too anxious to resist it" is an amazing insight and OI wish I'd come across it earlier. :X

Huh, this is fascinating reading. Though I'll note, this document is intended for printing, not reading, so it doesn't read linearly. Still very good once you get used to that though. XD
