Time is the one thing we all suffer through equally.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a whale gamer with 100 ships or a normal person with 1 or 2.

Those 10 minutes pass the same for us all. And it’s that consequence upon death that gives real weight, meaning and purpose to your choices.

It’s what’s meant to keep you from going, “hurr durr guns go brrrr” and shooting everyone you see on sight like a neanderthal.

The only thing I don’t agree with is the current durations given the state of the game.

Often your ship explodes through no fault of your own. They should incrementally increase wait times as the game stabilizes more on my opinion.

But in a game where death is not permanent like real life time is one of the few things that weighs on us all the same.

And yes, ofc owning more ships b/c you’re wealthier than other players does give you an advantage over other players, doesn’t invalidate my point.

If anything that’s making it more realistic, and some day 200 years from now when they implement “Death of a Spaceman” there will be harsher penalties to death that you can’t whale your way out of, forcing you to prize your life and take action accordingly.

It’s not meant to appeal to everyone. Nothing is meant to appeal to everyone.

If you don’t like it, that’s fine, don’t play, no one is forcing you.

If you disagree with the game mechanics, that’s fine, don’t play. No one is forcing you.

If the devs need to do x, y, and z to appease you as an individual or you’re going to quit, that’s fine, don’t play. No one is forcing you.

In the summer 78F during the day but I spend most of that time in the basement because that’s where my office is and 68F at night to sleep.

During the winter 68F all day err’ day

Doric, beauty in simplicity, simple as.

I tried transforming the word Lemmy in the same way as demonyms for countries ending in Y just to see how it’d shake out.

Anything calling to anyone? 😅

Germany -> Germans -> Lemmans

Para/Uruguay -> Para/Uruguayans -> Lemmyans

Muscovy -> Muscovites -> Lemmites

Hungary -> Hungarians -> Lemmians

Norway -> Norwegians -> Lemmegians?

Turkey -> Turks? -> Lemms?

Plex and a web app I wrote for a Twitch community I moderate.

Plex is on a server in the Netherlands and the web app is just AWS. I would’ve hosted on some spare hardware but my internet is notoriously trash and I didn’t want to risk it going down while people are playing in the app.

Plex I might move onto a NAS at some point but I’m just too lazy lol.
