He/him

Leftist, horror movies, programming, dumb obscure indie games, angry techno, deathcore, enjoyer of theory.

ghost might be a reference to spectre or just a play on a trapcore artist name…

That’s a great counter point. And for sure I don’t see FOSS apps overtaking something like TikTok in my lifetime. I think they will start getting a bigger share of the pie though.

I’m actually mulling it over. I got an email from a Houston organizer saying the same thing when I switched my email address.

The main issue is that I live in the heart of the TX panhandle so there are maybe 3 of us that are this far left and maybe a few dozen that are so where on the left in general. I’m considering making a post on one of the communities on here to find othera in my area to gauge interest.

Well I’m gonna hold on to this statistic for later use. The absurdity of 14 million being imprisoned is enough that is should stand on it’s own but maybe the direct comparison to the US prison system might drill it home a bit more.

Fuck AdCap. Play Antimatter Dimensions. It’s a different type of idler but it makes my brain go burrrrr. And you don’t need to spend money unless you wanna support the dev.

Check to see if your theme is set to compact and switch that to the normal one.

Quick heads up before you jump in. The Android version doesn’t have the final update as it’s a port by another dev. The Web and Steam versions are complete. This is important because the “5 hour” update effectively triples the amount of game there is. I am playing on the Steam version and have 1,072 hours clocked and am “almost” done. I am right before the final set of mechanics in the final section of the game and probably have another 100 hours or so.

That said, the Android version still took me about 3 months to get to the end. The game is surprisingly big for an idler and it’s not anything like the Cookie Clicker or Kittens Games style ones. If you can get past the first prestige though, and still like it, you should be good.

There used to be a guide on reddit but that got taken down after the update. There is a cheat sheet guide there still for major stuck points. Or the discord has pins for every game layer that will help.

Cookie Clicker is a classic and was my gateway idle game. I haven’t checked out PokeClicker. Realm Grinder, NGU, Idle To Rule The Gods, Universal Paperclips, A Dark Room, and Kittens Game are also some off the top of my head worth mentioning. If AD scratches that itch, I’d also rec Prestige Tree and maybe Synergism. Although Synergism gets way convoluted. Prestige Tree is relatively short for an idler and has an actual end so like there are timewalls but no real burnout so it’s kind of nice.
