You're a lovely bunch of people on here. 💙

Jason Scott just dumped the ZIL source code for every infocom game on github. Clone it before Activision's lawyers wake up. And now we see how long it takes for the internet to produce a compiler for a language that's been dead for 30+ years from a cache of production grade source code for said language. We've had compiled z-machine files, but never the original ZIL. github.com/historicalsource

Character design thoughts 

@Felthry has a character named Aditi, and I had some thoughts on an outline for his brother. I'd love to see it expand this into a full character, if it wants to!

Name undecided -- Darius?

Aditi's older brother
Transmasculine nonbinary, he/him pronouns and masc presentation
Doesn't bind; actually likes his bust
Taur
Moderately well off, but not rich
Occupation-- Woodworker? Probably has a machine shop
Interested in spellcraft, but as a hobby not a career
Estranged from most of the family, but very close with Aditi
The Cool Uncle kind of guy--are there any kids he's a Cool Uncle to?

I wonder how a store that sells anti-theft tags prevents theft?

What development weirdness resulted in chargin' chucks being considered powerups by super mario world's code?

Most everything can be cute if you're willing to actually look.

People think bats are scary, but then if you look at bats they're actually really cute. People are afraid of snakes, but just look at the silly face of a hognose and you can't find that frightening! Rats may be scary if one runs across the floor in what you had thought was a rodent-free house, but if you actually meet one they're really smart and friendly.

Take the time to get to know an animal, and you'll find them worth knowing.

Goodnight, everyone. May you dream of wonders.

What is it exactly that makes sodium ion batteries so difficult? Is it just the relative size of the sodium ion being much bigger than lithium ions?

Just saw a fascinating idea: countersink holes into wood or plastic by using a dremel to cut a notch into a screw head of the same type that you're going to use in the hole to make a cutting surface, and using a screwdriver drill bit, use the modified screw as a drill bit to make the countersink.

Baba Is You is a very difficult game. The puzzles are well-designed but extremely hard and I'm trying to get through all of them without any hints but I might need to give up on that and ask for hints. Anyone here who's completed the game and could provide some hints? Not solutions, just hints.

Imagine a video game, a grand strategy game on the scale of Civilization, but where, every time two armies do battle, the game changes to a Fire Emblem style tactics game, and then on top of that, every time two units engage in combat, it turns into a fighting game.

A game of this would probably take an exceptionally long time to complete.

It's odd to think how commonly things like ammonia and bleach are used for cleaning, when you know how dangerous they are.

Well, I actually managed to sleep all night without waking up in the middle of the night this time. I hope that means this cold is going away.

"real" and "fake" are not very useful concepts when it comes to identity. Rather, throw them both out and judge things based on usefulness, helpfulness, or just how comfortable or appropriate they feel to the person or persons in question. There will be a lot less stress and imposter syndrome.
