  1. Hmm. Thank you - I had no idea that intern mills were a thing. I'll need to do some research.
  2. Um... I used to love my DS. Which was a) portable b) a console. Am I getting banned?
  3. Now I'm sad that it doesn't. Hellblade will never recover in my eyes.
  4. That's why HotS is the far superior MOBA. Fight me.
  5. Thanks, I'll start looking for some resources. And the ego thing, well, I can only hope that it's not universal... I've never been a fan of sacrificing one's life and passions on the altar of Great Corporate Overlords, but right now I'm facing an adapt-or-die situation. Granted, we're still talking about a prerequisite long-term investment that'll likely end up being a dud (as, to be honest, I don't think I have the necessary mental capacity to code), but either way it's probably high time to do something.
  6. ^ One of these days, I really need to play Hellblade. That game seems to scream "atmosphere".
  7. How difficult is it to learn C# and/or Java? I'm asking because I've hit a concrete wall career-wise and I'm actually desperate enough to start from scratch in a completely different field. I should add that I have no experience in coding whatsoever.
  8. ^ Wow, James McAvoy sounds perfect as Morpheus. I swear it'd be super difficult for me to imagine him with a different voice now. Also, let's get Tori Amos to voice Delirium. EDIT: And while we're at it... Brian Blessed as Destruction when
  9. ^ Oh. To be honest, I had no idea. Thanks for putting that particular avenue of worrying to rest.
  10. Authorities in the Chinese region of Inner Mongolia are on high alert after a suspected case of bubonic plague, the disease that caused the Black Death pandemic, was reported Sunday.
  11. Oh, man... I laugh, but it hurts.
  12. ^ To be honest, that looks legitimately fun!
  13. Well... ...I don't think it ever really went away.
  14. You're right that I wasn't really thinking about Native Americans when I wrote my initial post, but then again, I'm also not sure why they wouldn't (or shouldn't) be included in discussions about colonialism. Thank you for the suggestions. I'm looking for "The Earth Is Weeping" as I write this post.
  15. I'm reviewing some of my old university study material about the history of the UK (for reasons). I was surprised to discover that the entire time period and phenomenon of British colonialism has been reduced to a measly paragraph. Even when combined with stuff about the East India Company, it's literally less than one page long, which I feel to be super disappointing given how much spotlight is given i.e. to the Tudors. No Newfoundland, no India, no Gandhi, nothing. Just vagueness. That said, I've recently developed a serious itch to scratch when it comes to the general topic of colonialism and its echoes, British or otherwise. I'm in the mood to do some comprehensive reading, but I don't know where to start. I feel like it's one of those issues that may easily turn into a politically-charged minefield, and I, well, I just want to be less ignorant on the matter. To better understand things. If possible, could anyone recommend me a good book or two on the subject?
  16. Oh, God. I still remember how blown away I was by the visuals of both of these games as a kid. Nostalgia mode: I miss Amiga.
