This is an aborted article, here to house some pictures I have. I misplaced the notes though. =/
I’ll find them eventually, but here are some screenshots in the meanwhile.

These are notes for the game. I attempted to play it during beta, but I was unable.

I was going to do this big post on Minecraft, explaining what it is and why everyone should be playing it. But I haven’t been in the writing mood, and only the playing mood, so I’ve only collected a lot of notes.
But today the traffic became so bad that the server was brought to its knees. I think it’s a popularity issue, but let’s ask Google Trends to make sure:

I was hoping that Ryzom would be good. They open sourced the client and they appreciate Linux. The game just doesn’t seem so hot.

For a while now, I’ve been playing the online game World of Warcraft (“WoW”). Come to think of it, I’ve been extremely unproductive in anything that’s important to me in life because of this game. Hmm.
But my habit of searching and reviewing has stayed with me. One of the things which attracted me to this game in the first place is the possibility to customize the game client (Forum: UI and Macros). Since it is impossible to create one interface which is universally acceptable, it is extremely good to allow developer customization.

It used to be great, but Google took it over, removed video responses, fucked up comments and left the service in shambles.

StarCraft – (1998/2017 game) remains one of the best games ever made. The quality of gameplay, the low system requirements and most especially the hackability of the maps.

To read
This book is mind blowing. I think the best description I can give of what it’s topic and goals are is to present the first chapter, in full. From here I think anyone interested in the subject will understand fully where this book is going and the intentions of the authors.
- Properly titled Philosophy in the Flesh: The Embodied Mind and its Challenge to Western Thought
-
By George Lakoff and Mark Johnson.
- TODO – The various Wikipedia topics would need references to cognitive philosophy as a contraindication to the various topics, and in those topics to specifically cite passages in the introduction in this book.

TODO – Finish the linking.
