@apu It is and isn't. I mean on here, the movies talk, I go and look at unread posts and see the first few sentences of the latest Good or new movies thread. (as an example, not complaining!) but there are no spoiler tags and it's pretty darn spoilery to what's going on. it doesn't outright say the spoiler, but if you know the characters and what's going on, it's something I didn't know.)

Sure this is a minor-ish spoiler, I guess, because it's been spoiled all over the internet, not who but what, but it's not small.

So there are people who will purposefully do it, but people who casually spoil things as well.

Spoiling is just part of being on the internet, is what I'm saying, and either people will be dicks about it, or not. But even when people aren't the potential to be spoiled is there.

I'm halfway through Skullsworn by Brian Staveley.

I just finished listening to the audiobook of this. Narrator was awesome, book was very well done. Superior to the trilogy books in my opinion. Excellent interpretation of Death worship too that I may steal someday if I ever do a fantasy setting.

The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward.

@ashen-shugar Fortunately SSD drives have gotten better at this recently, most SSD drives will last many many years of near constant writing. Unless it was like, non-stop ram level flush and fill maybe... but I am no expert.

I really enjoy Lindsay Ellis's pop culture stuff.

I am also incredibly glad that I watched her breakdown of Bright which was a mix of writing theory and history of the film itself.

Man, I'm not sure I wanna see her tear apart Bright. 😐

It’s fine to have guilty pleasures, as @coin says, or don’t watch it that’s fine. After watching her Hobbit breakdown I was legitimately kind of depressed, and not just because of the obvious sad-panda editing and framing she does at the very end.

You have to know obscure history, really.

Short-answer: Yes.

Long-Answer: By the time we ever reached any zone with other life not in our own system, within the Ort Cloud, the life forms and their system, would likely be gone. Evidence of them too, potentially.

I think there's something wrong with your browser then, if you're using Twine's built-in debug feature. When I tried: (set: $operations to operations + 1) it actually gave me a very useful error output stating that "operations is not defined"

So I've actually started a Twine story up in Harlowe 2 and been playing with different code structures and permutations. Everything works fine and normally.

Instead if (if: $operations <= 0) you could also try:

(set: $isOperationsDone to ($operations <= 0))
(print: $isOperationsDone)

Instead of the if: statement (if you leave the if statement in, it'll trash your existing output when it jumps to the next storyboard). If the print value is correct and if you actually don't jump to the end without the apparently offending if statement, then try adding:

$isOperationsDone[(goto: "peregrine@end:~$ ^z")]

@tinuviel Loot boxes. When building specific decks, kegs are largely just scrap factories and you craft the cards you want. There's no cards in the game you can't make through crafting via scraps. You don't have to wait for a random drop to get a card.

3.14 IS PI DAY Y'ALLS. Many deals on pizza things here and I'm assuming elsewhere.

I will be getting my discounted pizza. Will it have pineapple? Idk.

Freak Macaron Incident.

A macaron delivery truck will veer into my car to avoid hitting a mother duck and its ducklings. 9/10 okay with dying save the baby ducks.

I wish I had the money for this as I'd be all over this, but you know I have a mad love of DC Comics. 🙂

@auspice

Um...What?

I blame yesterday's fugue state.

thanks, I tried finding a "dumb" version of the TV I am looking at but doesn't look like they have one. It's got a bunch of positive reviews and I've been looking at various tech sites and seems like it'll be good enough. Thanks again!
