I’ve been trying to put myself in the shoes of someone who voted for the orange man. It seems like inflation was the biggest factor for a lot of people. I guess I can understand that when it’s hard to afford groceries anymore, the correlation equals causation argument that Trump pushed becomes more alluring. Biden/Harris were in charge when inflation happened. Would it have been much worse with Trump in power? I think so, but maybe a lot of people are just thinking that a change was needed, enough to ignore literally everything else about Trump. I dunno, but I refuse to believe that most people who voted for Trump are fascist or racist or bigots or misogynist. Just trying to stay hopeful.

Outer Wilds and the DLC are such amazing games. Highly recommended. The DLC does get kinda spooky sometimes.

Metroid Prime 4!! Will it actually happen after all this time?

I guess KSP 2 won’t ever be better than KSP 1. That sucks.

The story about this backdoor is really wild if it’s true https://lcamtuf.substack.com/p/technologist-vs-spy-the-xz-backdoor

Haha, Rimworld gets even more horrifying. I’ve played the crap out of Rimworld and the previous DLCs, but I might wait a while to buy this new DLC. Rimworld feels like a uphill battle even in medium-level difficulty. I guess I’ll wait until I’m in the mood to feel horrified on top of that. I’m not sure I’m ready for my prisoners whose legs I cut off to keep them from escaping so that I can use them as blood banks for my vampire colonists to get mauled by monsters.

My favorite DDR song of all time.

Internet2 actually has existed since 1997. It’s like a series of private connections between universities. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet2

I had this phone. It was great. I really miss tactile keyboard keys.
