Transylvania doesn’t mean “forest on the other side”. It means “on the other side of the forest”. In this case on the other side of the forest from Hungary. So Cisylvania is Hungary.

The big difference I see is what it’s controlling. Sure, the Navy used Xbox controllers for intuitive use of the periscope. I bet if you asked them “please make all ship attitude controls, and therefore crew safety, reliant on this,” they would laugh at you and walk away.

Alito, Gorsuch and Thomas. Gorsuch has occasionally surprised me. Alito and Thomas can always be counted on to be horrible.

I was really into Changeling: The Dreaming, cyberpunk, and old DOS 8.3 filenaming back in the day. It just stuck.

When I cracked to enby/genderfluid, I wanted a name that was genderneutral. I’m a fan of Bruce Campbell and Evil Dead, so I thought Ash(ley) worked well. Later I cracked again to transfeminine and thought “yeah, that still works.”

If I know I’m going to be dealing with wind for an extended time I’ll tie it back. Otherwise I just put up with hair in my face and brush it next chance I get. There is, unfortunately, no real way around it, unless you use so much styling product that your hair is glued in place.

Path of Exile. I can’t even say it’s great. It’s OK. But they must have nailed that Diablo-esque addictive quality because I can’t stop.

It’s not an exact match but I’ve been enjoying Hard Fork.

Interesting. What counts as the endgame? I’m in Act 9 now.
