An online game I need to check out: Castle Light


After a relatively brief colder & snowier interlude, we've re-entered a period that will be characterized by sustained anomalous warmth in U.S. West. Today, daily record high temperatures are again occurring across portions of Southern Rockies and interior SW. #CAwx #COwx

Today in Boulder people keep saying "Beautiful day" to each other on the street with dread in their voice.

A symbiotic origin of the ribosome?

"The origin of life is one of the great mysteries of science. Of the multiple unsolved problems, the origin of the translation system (the means by which the genetic code inscribed on chromosomes is converted into reliable protein sequences) remains the most enigmatic"

i wish physical media for PC games would make a comeback. there's something really fun about going to cashies and browsing through a rack of cheap old games, picking one, bringing it home, popping it in the xbox 360/PS2/etc, and having instant access to a game you now own forever. maybe your parents are driving from perth to melbourne and they want to buy you a DS game you can play for the next four days while you're on the road with no internet.

you have a lot more freedom with PC games -- mods, downgrades, save editing -- but unless the game you want is on GOG or itch, you can't just buy and own a game. even with GOG/itch's DRM-free downloads, you still need to download something.

optical media sucks, i know, but couldn't we have read-only USB sticks or something? can't i have a shelf full of my favourite games?

while i'm griping about digital media... i wanted to buy a switch game for my sister's birthday as a nice surprise. it's digital only, so i went to the switch eshop and looked for the "buy as gift" option. there isn't one.
