    Weekly what have you been playing discussion - week of September 9th, 2024
  • I tried Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes again today, after years of not playing it. Had a lot of fun, and even beat a bunch of previously best times!

    I also tried Balatro for the first time today. Really cool music and aesthetics, but not for me. I could see someone who likes Poker, getting super into it though.

    Been playing a lot of Dice & Fold though, which I initially thought that I wouldn't care for, but which has really turned into an obsession. That and Storyteller have been so much fun to play!

    Next up, I want to give PowerWash Simulator a try, as I hear a lot of good things about it.

    We lost nice people during the COVID waves instead of her. It isn't right.
  • I think what the person on Twitter wrote is in response to Rowling going off on a rant about cisgender female boxer, Imane Khelif (from Algeria), in the Olympics, and insisting that she's a man. Rowling's tweet here. There's an article here that outlines the response from the Olympics, and the other female boxer, Italian boxer Angela Carini, who lost to Imane Khelif.

    Carini, however, said to reporters after the match: “I wish her to carry on until the end and that she can be happy … I am not here to judge or pass judgment. If an athlete is this way, and in that sense it’s not right or it is right, it’s not up to me to decide.”

    And as that article also notes:

    It’s also worth noting that it is illegal to be transgender in Algeria – so to peddle the information that the country would send a trans athlete to compete in the Olympics would frankly be laughable if it wasn’t so maddening.

    Edit: Forgot to link to the article.

    Can anyone help me find an online calculator that can calculate total the price of items I buy. (euro)
  • Oh, that actually looks really cool! Seems perfect for those times when you don't want to start up a whole Excel / Google Sheet. That actually seems perfect for what OP is asking for, provided they don't mind that it isn't offline. At least it doesn't require making an account! Pretty cool that you can share pages too.

    Good game soundtracks?
  • Adding on to this to specifically recommend the Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 soundtrack. Oscar Araujo did masterful work on this, so much so that I even went out and bought the album, even though it was almost impossible to get my hands on it. But you can listen to it on YouTube.

  • It's supposed to be angels. Abraham Lincoln also used the phrase "the better angels of our nature" in his first inaugural address in 1861, in a plea to avoid civil war.

    EDIT: I also don't see the spelling mistake that OP is talking about.

  • I played the demo on Steam yesterday, and had a lot of fun with it. I really look forward to seeing what they come up with in the full release.

    I'm so happy that it's getting more normal for studios to release free demos. I've been playing a lot of hours of Aloft too, and I gotta say, it really makes me more interested in buying the game when it comes out, than I otherwise would be.

  • What a super cool idea, and I love the implementation! I do however keep accidentally downvoting, when I want to upvote, and vice versa, since all other sites that I've ever used, display the upvote first, and the downvote second. Any chance of a toggle for that in settings?

    A must-have feature for me is the ability to collapse comments on posts. Right now it seems like we can only collapse replies to comments, or put differently, we can only collapse child-comments. Any chance you could make it possible to collapse parent comments too?

  • I was curious too, so I went to the Wikipedia page:

    The goal is to attain liberation in the body, by sealing in the energy of bindu in the head so that it is not lost.

    Haṭha yoga is a branch of the largely spiritual practice of yoga, though it makes use of physical techniques; it was developed in medieval times, much later than the meditative and devotional forms of yoga. Its goals however are similar: siddhis or magical powers, and mukti, liberation. In Haṭha yoga, liberation was often supposed to be attainable in the body, made immortal through the practices of Haṭha yoga. Among its techniques were mudrās, meant to seal in or control energies such as kundalini and bindu. Khecarī mudrā is one such technique.

    tl;dr - A spiritual practice of yoga in Hindu metaphysics.

  • tbf, it seems like his relationship with animals was really hit or miss:

    Diodorus Siculus recorded a story of Menes related by the priests of the crocodile god Sobek at Crocodilopolis, in which the pharaoh Menes, attacked by his own dogs while out hunting fled across Lake Moeris on the back of a crocodile and, in thanks, founded the city of Crocodilopolis.

    Bandcamp anbefalinger
  • Jeg har ikke benyttet mig af Bandcamp, andet ind en håndfuld gange over årerne, og i stedet blot brugt Spotify. Men jeg står og skal til at flytte i en større lejlighed nu, og tænker at jeg gerne vil have en NAS server sat op der. Få overført alle mine nuværende fysiske medier, og så begynde at støtte kunstnere igennem Bandcamp. Så ville være interessant at se hvad folk lytter til herinde, måske jeg kan blive inspireret :)

    Ellers er et af de første jeg vil støtte, The Wanton Bishops, et lebanesisk blues rock / psykedelisk rock band. Pt. er jeg helt skudt i Bad Liver and a Broken Heart fra deres Sleep With the Lights On album.

  • I would be very excited to explore the in-game locations. Hopefully feel really immersed in the universe! And as /u/AlolanYoda@mander.xyz mentioned, I hope it will be possible to solve conflicts through diplomacy. That has always been Star Trek's biggest draw for me, that it isn't just about combat and fighting.
