I bought Deus Ex: Human Revolution for 2.99€ and I’ve been enjoying it. I’ve always heard good things about the series, but never tried it before. Definitely feeling that Cyberpunk had some inspiration from Deus Ex.
I also bought Firewatch for 4.99€ and beat it in a day. I wasn’t spoiled about the story, but I had read a bit about it. At the end of the day, I’m glad I played it, but I’m not sure that I would necessarily recommend it.
That is a crazy process. But I’m happy that you were somehow able to get a new passport :).
Have you watched the show? The game is not for me, horrorness being a part of the reason, but the show was very well done.
This immediately made me think of Scythe, and sure enough, he did the art. Fantastic.
Depending on the complexity, there’s also abbrev-mode

There’s a fork of Openboard that is trying to update it, but AFAIK, it’s not published anywhere yet: https://github.com/Helium314/openboard
I immediately thought of House of Leaves. Do not read it as an ebook, if there even is an ebook version. It must be read as a physical book.
I wish this was exaggerated, but it isn’t at all. Every time I try to learn Haskell, I end up in some tutorial: “You know how you sometimes need to represent eigenvectors in an n-dimensional plane with isotonically theoretical pulsarfunctions? Haskell types make that easy!”
I never really thought of it as science fiction (see her MaddAdam series for something more SF-y), but I love the book and think it does a great job of extrapolating from various political trends into where parts of the “western world” could end up going.
I’m also not surprised it’s a candidate for being banned, either from people who think it paints religion or conservativsm in a negative light, or people who think it might make anyone under 18 uncomfortable. Is it appropriate for 5 year olds? Probably not. 16 year olds? Seems reasonable to me.
Thanks for that link! That does seem very similar to what I read about in Machi Koro 2, and I think we will definitely try it the next time we play.
