the haskell community
it's honestly one of the few parts of computing (at least at my uni) where I felt like women were welcome
there's still shitty people in the community, but I don't feel unsafe
I'm back online~

A massive announcement of interstellar proportions
You know how I start a new blog every Valentine's Day? And how today is Valentine's Day?
That's right. Today is the day my item-by-item exploration of all the things in Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri begins. And let me tell you - there are things in there. Come for the nostalgia value, come for the novelty value; stay for the immense amount of words you did not know you wanted to read about science fiction, past and present

It's valentine's day.
But screw commercialism.
It can be valentine's day every day of you want.
But regardless I'm going to hijack this corporate sales holiday by giving you all love and adoration for free.
Yes all of you.
You're valid and good and deserving of love.
You're not alone.
Even though there's physical distance, may love find you in whatever form, romantic, platonic, friendship, intimate, however. May it be good, and healthy, and fun, and warm, and comforting.
I wish you love.

why does food make you feel better?
why does food make you feel better?
in order to control your emotions, you need to have willpower
it took us a long time to figure out what willpower actually is, though: a lot of early hypothesises were that it's a skill, or a talent.
but repeated tests have shown that willpower is actually a limited resource that you have, and basically the only way to increase it?
is glucose

bad thing from D&D
this actually caused a problem with a game I was going to run: I set up a group chat, organised some details, went to bed.
The next day, I checked the chat and overnight several of them had made their characters already.
bad thing from D&D
A lot of groups have all the players make a character by themselves, before meeting.
Don't do this*. It's way easier to make characters that fit together if you make them together.
*ask your GM, at least

There are a million blogs and articles full of how to be a good DM. I want to talk about the flip side of the coin, how to be a better player.
Now, I'm going to use D&D3e for my examples, but these apply to any RPG.
My credentials? I used to do a lot of convention play, which means I could play with up to 30 other players each convention, and I would do this four or five times a year, if not more. I've seen just about every type of player that was in Living Greyhawk.
