I’m planning to give it a read and if I plan to use it, buy it in print. They’re still an unknown to me ;)

Hey that’s cool, thanks for sharing.
I’m glad to see this project was a success! I had passed on this when they were originally on KS because (candidly) I had zero expectation they were ever going to deliver. The creator was a total unknown and if you’ve been on KS as long as I have (7+ years and over 150 backed projects) you grow to be suspicious of that.
Awesome! I’ll be looking forward to it, thanks again for sharing, and for answering my question!
Hey, neat aesthetic! Wishlisted it on the strength of that, alone :)
I’d be interested to learn what your primary influences are, what inspired you, what do you hope the game invokes memories of in your players?
On a more tactical matter: do you plan to support the Steam Deck?
It’s never worked for me.
I like to keep space at the bottom, and only 3 buttons in the dock. Most-used, quick access in the bottom right.

Posting from the app, looking great! Thank you, @aeharding, you’re doing amazing work here. Migrating to Lemmy from the other place has been such a breeze with this app to smooth the way.
Happy to! Thanks for posting it originally. FT does good reporting, their paywall is obnoxious.

In my view, the gerontocracy is a side effect of deeper, systemic issues: too much power in incumbency, too much power placed in the hands of the hands of too few, too much power given to money. I would prioritize these three changes to fix our democracy:
- Publicly funded elections
- Uncap the House
- Term limits on the Supreme Court
That’s it. Everything else flows downhill from there.
Not being argumentative, but according to public records this place is privately owned by a person (or family) who bought it in 1997 (not a corp or LLC). It was listed for rent 2 years ago at $3900 before being taken down a month later.
That’s why I see it as a parallel market. I have a hard time seeing how folks being hurt by crazy rent prices are affected by this home being on Airbnb, any more than (say) a shortage of Ferraris would affect the price of minivans.
If you want to know what the moon blowing up would be like, give Seveneves by Neal Stephenson a read. It’s the last book that got me to stay up all night reading. First two thirds are a solid 9/10.
