Sorry for the disjointed thoughts on computer simulation games today, was in a disjointed thoughts on simulators kind of mood
-
Compare to 16-bit flight sims. Sure, the graphics are old, but the graphical step between 8 and 16 made the difference between a simulator that's mostly played on its gauges and couldn't depict much more than an horizon, and a game that could depict buildings, objects, boats, other planes...

@ocean Elite is a valiant attempt but I would argue its enjoyment comes from pretty much everything but flying the spaceship. At least, for me. By comparison, Frontier I can still play without having to put myself in a "retro" mood; it just plain holds up today.

More 8-bit direness

The 8-bit era was just one generation too early for enjoyable flight simulators. The fun ones only started appearing in the 16-bit era, because the ability to render 3d graphics in real time is a requirement, and the best the 8-bit computers could do was... limited to say the least.

I think what I like most about submarine/naval sims is that it's nerd warfare at its nerdiest.

@0 @7 How long can we *maintain*? I wondered. How long before one of us starts raving and jabbering at this junior dev? What will he think then? This same box was the last known host for Google+'s app servers. Will he make that grim connection when my senior architect starts screaming about batch files and huge DDoS's coming down on the cluster? If so--well, we'll just have to degauss his Thinkpad and bury it somewhere. Because it goes without saying that we can't let him make any commits. He'll report us at once to to some kind of code of conduct enforcement agency, and they'll run us down like dogs.
Dennis! Did I *type* that? Or just think it? Was I typing? Did I get +kb'd from the channel?

@Mitsu Can confirm, Mitsu's feet are not ugly.
Now that I've said it, expect foot fetishists to be running like that gif towards your account

@IAMAL_PHARIUS So it's a lot like federating with Poast, I see!

worms :blobangery:

@shmibs @Moon @why Yeah. Maybe some guys have thinner softer hair on their body, but in my case it led to an unpleasant rash.

@avocatto Why do they charge so damn much to ship white Billy! :blobcatangry:

@wowaname The answer is between me and my wife

@mametsuko She is!

Mitsu: "If I was a worm, would you love me?"
Me: "Why are you asking trick questions I can't answer without getting in trouble?"
Mitsu: "You have to answer"
Me: "How would I even know the worm is you?"
Mitsu: "It would have my face but a worm body"
Me: "Then yes, of course!"
Mitsu: "Would you fuck a worm?"
I swear, she's not high.
