I actually wrote most of it in Obsidian, just copied all of it to Word for final edits because I have to use my school's docx template.

Definitely trying LaTeX if I end up getting another degree, only learned about it a few days ago. And I just now realized that I could've used git with Obsidian this whole time...

I was working on my thesis a couple days ago using Word, and it permanently deleted a whole line of text when I pressed ctrl+Z to undo a mistake.

That happened with every line on the page until i copied everything to a different text editor and then copied it back to Word.

I respect your take but I will never respect Word.

Why don't you consider yourself artistic? Why do you want to make your own art? By using AI you surrender ownership of your work to opaque algorithms and lose so much of what makes you special as someone unique and individual.

I was like 6 years old when my dad randomly told me that if a player dies during a football game, the others players have to eat him before the game can continue.

I never watched sports so I didn't even question it lol

Agreed. The writing and acting of RDR2 are amazing, but as a whole, the story of the game kind of felt empty in the end. I think I might revisit the game later to see if I'll enjoy it more, but I just don't see Arthur as that great of a character from a narrative viewpoint. After the first couple times Dutch's "plans" failed I started to really question why Arthur, or any of the other gang members really, would continue trusting him so blindly. I think that may have broken my immersion even more than the restrictive mission design where I also murdered like a thousand people.

Yeah, and there's a a lot of games on Steam that would never get approved by a publisher, especially the smallest of indie games. Besides, if you have the means to get a finished game on Steam without a publisher, you get to keep all revenue to yourself instead of losing ~50% to a publisher.

I almost 2 hours into it, and it's really good so far. Quite similar to Firewatch in all the good ways.

Edit: just finished it after a couple more hours, really liked it.
