Quake champions might be of interest

Edit lol just looked at the player counts, maybe not. Eh, I had fun with it for a while though.

Wow looks cool, will have to check it out soon!

How do you keep communities aligned across the accounts?

Wish we could do this in my town, miles of undeveloped lakefront access blocked by an 8 lane highway… it sucks.

Hm looks like each game takes ~2x time to complete and release the next, thus we can accurately estimate that GTA7 should be out around 2044, Just in time for my grandkids to enjoy it!

Impossible to say, there is no easy or immediate fix that I can imagine. I’ve basically accepted the underlying threat of fascism is something we are going to be dealing with for the rest of our time on the planet. Continue to vote to keep fascists off the levers of power, continue to protest whenever they have the levers, and pray the wheels of justice ground finely for enemies of democracy. Perhaps our kids or grandkids will find themselves in a better situation for their times…

Cry me a river. Clinton had a plan to retrain and retool these coal towns your describing into productive green energy leaders and they rejected it because she eats babies and wind farms kill birds, or whatever. They are totally irrational and I’m not going to keep pretending otherwise. The real government failure is lack of education spending and critical thinking skills (thanks GOP) that is going to take generations to correct.

Edit: I’ll add there are sparks of “hope” in rural america now that farmers are seeing the impacts of climate change effecting their yields, I think they are starting to come around. Probably too late, but it’s something…

I never made it into algebra in grade school, my scores weren’t good enough. but I took a liking to software dev and the ability to create digitally. Self taught myself all the variables and flow controls and OOP, now been a professional developer for 15 years.

However I still suck at math, and these fancy symbols still scare me probably because they were never properly explained. But yeah, I fit right in the mold you describe. Glad I have the computer to crunch the numbers for me.

Grumpy cat will always have a place in my heart
