Lately ive been getting a lot of new music from rateyourmusic.com . I look up an album i like, find some themed lists featuring it that aound interesting (a lot of the lists are like "things i listened to this year", i ignore those), and will hop from list to list as i see interesting looking albums.

I like everything ive heard of hers, and some of the songs on the next album are absolutely incredible (Time the Revelator, and the other long, slow songs), but i really dig the old timey stripped down vibe on Hell Among the Yearlings.

I'm glad I didn't pay for this. It looks fun but the performance is terrible it's literally freezing right now as I'm trying to quit. It eats up almost all of my CPU. I don't have a high-end gaming rig (any more), but i was able to get better performance out of the outer worlds.

I wonder if it would work if you spoofed your user agent.

I wouldnt be surprised if this was suicide by cop. But its still indicative of a structural problem that such a thing is possible.

This reminds me of the old human psychology trick: try not to think of a pink elephant.

I think the crux of spec ops was less about morally judging the player or even the protagonist actions. In my opinion the driving theme of that story was encouraging critical analysis of the media we participate in, in this case, video games. It's not so much that the player had no choice but to do those bad things, the important part is the way the context of the surrounding narrative framed those choices. And then extrapolating that to other games of a similar ilk and frankly media as a whole.

It's kind of a cult classic. I remember it getting a lot of praise on neo gas and that's also why I played it. But in the larger arena of video game culture it's kind of just a footnote.
