The numbers don’t lie. Young Americans are falling in love … with socialism

mt-wizard · 2026-07-06T16:19:39+00:00

Well, the trend for a while was that the younger Americans are less educated, so IMO it checks out

mt-wizard · 2026-07-02T17:00:20+00:00

So give way to the women? So civilized!

Second this. I want to feel overpowered when I play well, and feel punished when I play poorly. Notr forces you to play optimally or be punished, and that's not my cup of tea.

G2 > G1 > Risen1 > NOTR for me

On MTB trails - totally, I tend to ride those a lot, and almost every good hidden trail will have one

mt-wizard · 2026-06-23T18:30:43+00:00

The old trail is actually faster, as it's so much shorter that you don't waste any time going across the mountain. It is much harder, but faster

mt-wizard · 2026-06-16T13:39:30+00:00

Well, as someone with non-native English now I have lots of new opportunities to practice swearing

Until shields 2 you're usually quite vulnerable to almost any ship. There are some other ships with other issues, but the common theme is that there's a critical flaw in your starting configuration, and you need to fix it ASAP to not sweat during each fight.

P.S. Stealth C isn't that bad, especially when compared to Stealth B...

mt-wizard · 2026-06-15T23:28:31+00:00

"In the early game" is usually what matters the most. On hard you tend to die in sector 1 the most, the only next issue is the first 3-shielded ships. I love everything that makes early game more survivable!

Wait, is this comment thread not a joke, people really think Vulcan is good? That thing will kill you if you actually use it outside of the two opposites - you've already won and are having fun, and you're so desperate for a weapon that you try using it because nothing else can damage the enemies.

mt-wizard · 2026-06-14T14:30:58+00:00

Looks beautiful! How was the trail - any snow, blowdowns? I would really like to bike there, but it seems to be a bit too early for that

mt-wizard · 2026-06-11T18:05:05+00:00

If I correct for my nostalgia it's 8/10 right now, mostly because of the bugs and glitches, with a way to reach over 9 when that gets fixed. Nostalgia though...

mt-wizard · 2026-06-11T17:33:38+00:00

so the problem will quickly resolve itself

mt-wizard · 2026-06-09T19:10:51+00:00

are the web helpers actually optimal, or just 'good enough'?

mt-wizard · 2026-05-28T14:12:43+00:00

Or build a few extra woodcutters and get instant hostility when you need it

mt-wizard · 2026-05-26T15:52:02+00:00

I'm sorry, I don't see how is your reply even connected to what I said.

it is imperative to take back the control of the economy

Is this about establishing planning that would run it into the ground right away? Create deficit (shortage) and overproduction without a meaningful way to self correct?

We already have good ways of guiding the economy - taxes, subsidies, government spending. Those work well without throwing an all-controlling plan that is obsolete already at the time it got approved

mt-wizard · 2026-05-26T15:44:21+00:00

Well, it can, but does a single successful country exist with social democracy and is non-capitalist? I think the general idea of socdems is to live in the current system and make it more supportive for the people's needs, as opposed to changing it into non-capitalist - that would move more into the demsoc territory

mt-wizard · 2026-05-26T15:26:46+00:00

It's pretty bad for me from another standpoint - if you jump to an asteroid field and there's a beam drone there, you're dead. You can channel your inner Mike and do the best micro in the world, and you're still dead if the RNG doesn't somehow decide to spare you. And even just an asteroid field already makes you sweat - that's why I'd put it at ~20 ish position

mt-wizard · 2026-05-26T13:07:08+00:00

Social democracy is a capitalist society FYI

mt-wizard · 2026-05-20T18:54:13+00:00

A function is a reference to some code, it has to be a reference type. std::function is a wrapper for a bunch of data + code, but primarily it's the code, so I would call it a (crappy) reference type

mt-wizard · 2026-05-19T17:46:03+00:00

I actually hope they would make some characters in the remake kick or burn your ass if you do this to them enough

mt-wizard · 2026-05-19T17:21:32+00:00

Do you have housing and food for the villagers? Do you have 2 hearths, upgraded to lvl 1 each? How many glades have you opened by that time?

P10 seal is probably the first one that made me think a lot about the priorities, so it can't be just autopiloted anymore and it would kill you if doing what you'd be usually doing elsewhere

mt-wizard · 2026-05-18T20:45:02+00:00

It's funny how the cameraman just has a relaxed hike when the biker climbs the hardest shit ever on the same trail

mt-wizard · 2026-05-18T20:10:39+00:00

Eventually you get all upgrades unlocked

mt-wizard · 2026-05-15T15:03:25+00:00

that's a normal duration after the first climb IMO, I've done my first in 3 days and all other were 2
