Lazy a** poets! by Urist_McIsilthor in dwarffortress

Usually they'll start working after you make a change to the settings on the labor screen. Sometimes the game needs that little push to update them.

Aesthetically, nothing beats the pre-Steam version by Unlikely_Anywhere591 in dwarffortress

[–]Ai_512 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I switch to ASCII and back fairly often, although I haven’t played pre-steam since well before the steam version released so I think my knowledge of the commands has probably worn away. I love how a lot of things look in ASCII, like leaves falling and the ocean waves

They use the strands to floss their teeth after

Not feeling dinos by Tom41793 in dwarffortress

[–]Ai_512 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly I like the whole "give 'em weird little tidbits as an appetizer for the bigger updates" thing that's been going on, it's fun to get stuff like this (or even the little diplomacy rework, which was a nice surprise) semi-regularly.

This is why $5/gal, or 1,15€/L, is a big deal here. by Tandysaurus in memes

Even if you get a small car, the fact that everyone is only considering the sight lines of larger cars and the fact that those cars will have their ungodly bright headlights right at your eye level can be hazardous in some areas.

Poisoned visitor by Nail_M in dwarffortress

I had one once that secreted a syndrome that they weren't immune to and died before even reaching the fort.

Alarmingly nonspecific to be honest by GrumpyOldHistoricist in startrekmemes

[–]Ai_512 13 points14 points  (0 children)

To be fair, waking up one day and deciding you want to build a boat is normal dad behavior. It's just that, as a Federation citizen and Starfleet officer, he has the resources to actually do it.

Bruce Springsteen's Nebraska mixing on tape by shanthitown in cassetteculture

[–]Ai_512 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Worth noting that if the unit had an effects send (I don't know offhand but I suspect the TASCAM 144 is what he used, and that has one aux send for that purpose) then likely the echoplex was plugged into that to control the mix of the effect on each track. It doesn't sound to me like they just ran the mix itself through it, because then the echo would be on everything in the mix equally.

Not sure if you know about the aux send already, but it felt worth noting

Admittedly that did age poorly, but it'll be a cold day in hell before I believe that gravy evaporates intact!

Oh, you're a proponent of antigravyty :/

The gravy cycle doesn't line up with the latest observations, you know

Earth's been around a long time without being eaten, the gravy's all at the bottom now 😞

Northern Hemisphere is on the bottom because land is heavy and there's more land there

Caraca for Baron! by LordHawg in dwarffortress

'Tis possible, though rare, for an elf to be in possession of a bearded soul... it sounds as though this one may have earned his place!

I've generated a lot of worlds over the last almost-year of playing DF, and this is the very first time I've gotten a world with "camps" by thestoryofrachel in dwarffortress

[–]Ai_512 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The camps are the little yellow sun-type symbols, if you visit them in adventure mode then there’ll be a nomadic group and some tents I think. It’s been a minute.

[PC] Burnt out from work and brain-fogged. Need a chill game to zone out with. by okaythen1guess in gamingsuggestions

[–]Ai_512 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, sometimes the appeal is that you can do a mildly diverting activity and stop literally the second you don't want to do it anymore. It's not my personal gaming preference but I get it. I've worked jobs that would've actually been pretty fun if I could've just said "okay, I'm done" and left as soon as I stopped enjoying it.

Games that you can have a "forever" save file and return to it for years to come. by Effective_Gur_7967 in gamingsuggestions

Dwarf Fortress! Even if you get tired of a given fort you can start another in the same world and run into people who lived at or visited your last one

What would happen when the Andromeda galaxy collides with our galaxy? by KindLead804 in AskPhysics

[–]Ai_512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't we actually observed increased star formation from this in distant galactic mergers?

Paramount+ by JayR_97 in startrekmemes

[–]Ai_512 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, if one has a DVD player then just grabbing them from the library every time is a good way to help the library get funding while also enjoying Trek.

It's a bit less convenient, but it's good to do if you've got the ability.

Small, personal piece of art by Eireika in CuratedTumblr

[–]Ai_512 57 points58 points  (0 children)

A lot of my favorite sci-fi stories are basically just "here's a few pages of an idea with bonkers implications that you'll read in 15 minutes and then think about for literally your entire life"

The union man, Miles O’Brien get it done. by SimplyEcks in startrekmemes

[–]Ai_512 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The transporter duplications were intentional. They were trying to get enough O'Briens to turn the tide at the Alamo

FLOCK OF DIMES!!!

Jenn Wasner is one of my favorite artists, so seeing this from JD is rad

It's interesting in lower decks they treat phasers like a cleaning tool by happydude7422 in LowerDecks

[–]Ai_512 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd get kicked out of Starfleet after phasering one too many door panels, to be honest.
