aimatme Link ParentThey did it off the back of some really smart strategy decisions. Which is so unlike Ferrari lol. As far as pace went, they appeared to be just behind the Mercs, and AM. But a noticeable margin...They did it off the back of some really smart strategy decisions. Which is so unlike Ferrari lol. As far as pace went, they appeared to be just behind the Mercs, and AM.

aimatme Link ParentIt's a faithful rebuild of the original Red Alert (and other Westwood Studios games) from the ground up using an open source game engine. It's pretty stable and better balanced than the original...It's a faithful rebuild of the original Red Alert (and other Westwood Studios games) from the ground up using an open source game engine. It's pretty stable and better balanced than the original with support for modern quality of life improvements like high resolutions and attack move etc.
If you own the game (with all the assets), you can even play the original campaigns.

Comment on Tildes fundraiser June 2023: Encourage an app developer (me) to work on a Tildes app faster, by donating to Tildes (not me)! in ~tildes
aimatme Link ParentHey mate, just wanted to say thanks so much for RiF. Was probably my most used app over the last decade or so after perhaps only Spotify. As soon as you release your Android app I'll be straight...Hey mate, just wanted to say thanks so much for RiF. Was probably my most used app over the last decade or so after perhaps only Spotify.
As soon as you release your Android app I'll be straight there. Feel free to shout if you need beta testers too, I am a software dev IRL.

aimatme Link ParentIs tildes to be self funding? If traffic grows to a point, some sort of revenue strategy might be desirable if the collective values self sufficiency. Even if it's a Patreon.Is tildes to be self funding? If traffic grows to a point, some sort of revenue strategy might be desirable if the collective values self sufficiency.

Comment on Mysterious, thoughtful games? A genre I can't define in ~games
aimatme LinkI'm not sure I've understood your requirements correctly, however you should try Braid. It's older now (2010) but I still think it holds up really well.I'm not sure I've understood your requirements correctly, however you should try Braid.

Comment on Nine in ten new cars sold in Norway are electric or hybrid, compared to less than half of those sold in the EU. What's Norway's secret? in ~transport

A lot of which has come directly from oil and gas industry.
It is moderately easier to be an early adopter of expensive technologies when you can afford it. I think the political will exists in most countries. And a lot of the opposition is based on the expense of such change. It's happening but has to happen more slowly.
Surely the fastest sport in the world goes to Air Racing. And if we're talking human powered, downhill skiing. And if we count projectiles, rifling.
It's exhilarating and fast, but we don't need to make fictitious claims about it being the fastest sport in the world imho.
