  • Kerbal Space Program 2 as an Early Access game on Steam. Take Two poached developers those that worked on KSP 1 and then laid off the entirety of Intercept Games, the studio that they made for KSP 2. Even though it’s not being worked on anymore, you can still get it on Steam for an eye-watering €50, which was exactly what I paid (before the layoff happened, on day 2 of Early Access). This was after I had great experiences with other Early Access games like ULTRAKILL and Satifactory, so I thought that a company like Take Two wouldn’t fuck the pooch that hard. It’s playable, the graphics are neat, the music is very nice, and they did manage to add the science mode before it all went to shit, but I’m sad that the promised two other solar systems, planet colonization, resource extraction, automation and multiplayer will probably never be added. That is, unless someone else buys up the project and actually finishes it.







  • Did UK people smoke much more back then? I recently went on vacation to Germany and was appalled at how acceptable it is there. Here in the Netherlands we have a program called “Smoke-free generation”, which forbids smoking in places that children often visit, such as schools and sports fields. From what I heard, the bottom kinda fell out when vaping became popular under teenagers.




  • That alone would cost like €5 here. It only ever makes sense to go there when I’ve been driving for the whole day and just need to eat plain old boring food. For another few euros I can go to something like the Salsa Shop and get a massive burrito that’ll keep me full for half a day. Ironically, it’s often multiple times faster than THE fast food restaurant.









  • Honestly, I actually save time using Linux compared to Windows. The problems that I had, have and will have are infinitely easier to solve (search engine -> Ctrl+C -> Ctrl-V), instead of reinstalling the whole damn OS (and every single application, game, file, and so on and so forth) whenever the tiniest thing breaks. I actually gain more time to live, because my hair isn’t going white and falling out due to seeing AI slop, ads and cookie banners on my OS all the time.
