Magic carpet 2, the Netherworlds is one I played a ton and think of from time to time. I wonder what I modern remake would be like.
It’s the first game I remember playing with deformable terrain.

First time I’ve seen something from my home area pop up on Lemmy. CCB is a solid brewery.
“my spoon is too big”
I started off really enjoying the series, but eventually had to abandon it as he kept adding increasingly over the strawmen who’s sole purpose was to be blown away by the might of Randian Objectivism.
Absolutely. Anansi boys is my personal favorite of his, but I think highly of all his books.
GameStop bought them a couple of years ago. That was the deathknell.
I’d second all three.
Neil Gaiman is absolutely one of my favorite authors and from what I’ve seen, a pretty great human being as well.
I loved Orson Scott Card’s books when I was younger, even the later Ender books. Unfortunately he’s also a pretty terrible person much like Rowling.
One of my favorite managers once told me while I was struggling with a severe case of imposter syndrome “if you’re faking it well enough that others can’t tell, you might not be faking it as much as you think.”
There’s a couple of short story collections on Kindle called Space Eldritch. It’s been years since I read them, but I remember enjoying them. A little on the pulpier side, but fun.
I love Takis. One of my guilty pleasure trash snacks is a bag of Takis and a couple hazys.
This one? https://youtu.be/_loUDS4c3Cs?si=oaF9L2yCBFuy35KB
It’s a great watch on the subject.
I used to do penetration testing and only got to dabble in physical penetration testing a couple of times. Hell of a lot of fun.
For anyone reading this chain and interested in hearing more, this is a pretty fun interview with someone known for doing physical presentation testing.
Old joke that’s been around forever: “What’s the best way to generate a random string? Give a first year comp sci student an open vim editor”
“Austin Powers, his loins ready.”
Huh, TIL something new. I had no idea those had made there way too console, and yeah, I imagine they’d play terribly on a console.
If you’re thinking of the dark alliance games, BG3 isn’t related to those at all. It’s the spiritual successor to Baldurs Gate II: Shadows of Amn which was only ever released on PC. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baldur’s_Gate_II:_Shadows_of_Amn.
Christine Chapel in the original series was played by Majel Barret, who’s other roles in later Star Trek series include voicing the ships computer, and Lwaxana Troi.
One of the best bosses I ever had once told me that people will stay for the culture but leave for money. His philosophy was to try and ensure that money was not a factor in people’s decision, then build as good a culture as he could.
And to be clear, by making money not a factor, I mean he paid well.
