I still think about OA a lot.

I did this, not quite a year ago. Light and easy to carry. Can play it anywhere. It’s been super fun. I’m a 60+ year old man and never able to play anything before.

There is a brutal man with a gun, controlling and threatening a group of good citizens with consciences. He’s going to do terrible things to them, and make them do terrible things themselves.

They have him outnumbered, but he has the gun. If they rush him, they can easily defeat him. But, the first one or two or three or four people to move forward will be shot and probably die painfully. Going first is going to cost a terrible price and you don’t know for sure that anyone else will follow you, that your sacrifice will be for anything at all.

You feel a little paralyzed and at the same time ashamed you are just standing there.

What happens next?

Could someone point me to total beginner (like only used windows) self hosting primer? Don’t even know what kind of machine I would need.

Lots of lurid details.

Only two other rich guys named Leon Black [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leon_Black] and Jes Staley [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jes_Staley].

Not to mention Prince Andrew and Bill Clinton, of course.

Protection racket

Colonialism coming back to the home country.

IDF kompromat on Fetterman, could explain a lot.

Couldn’t be!

In the Vietnam war, fragging the officers had a big impact.

Just reading a history of Capitalism by Sven Beckert, and it turns out the first stage of capitalism… also war.

It’s like the movie Brazil

She forgot to be a billionaire

Christian feudalism imagined Islam as it’s enemy (first thing that popped into my mind, I’m not an expert)

Was it as good as they say?

I think you can play nethack on anything! I ascended on my android phone once.

I loved Joust, back in the arcade days.

People are naturally resistant when told “what to do” so advice isn’t often very helpful.

Can be kind of mean spirited
