A casino where I always win?

Oh wow, I've never compared the two before, but you're absolutely right.

investigation of the human spirit.

yoink - don't mind me, just stealing this phrase for the next time someone asks me about Star Trek.

I've heard it described as "competency porn" before

Also can't forget gaming companies that have turned many modern games into Skinner-boxes.

Twitter reminds me of the worst parts of the old "wild west" internet now. There's still some good content, but it's hidden among scams, skeezy porn ads, and some of the worst opinions you've ever read.

Weird, steam is so much faster for me. And I don't do anything strange, just log in and use it, but almost every single time it asks for my password. I wonder if there's a timer - like, if you don't log in for a week, you have to give your credentials again?

Could be a plane dragging a banner!

Really? It takes ages to open for me.

Platypus: it's a weird custom build, but it works as intended.
