In a similar vein, though more about video-games themselves, I can also recommend
Dungeon Hacks: How NetHack, Angband, and Other Rougelikes Changed the Course of Video Games by David L. Craddock. (For those who are interested in DungeonCrawlers and their origins)
Dungeon Hacks: How NetHack, Angband, and Other Rougelik…
In 1980, computers were instruments of science and math…
Thank you! Sure I can share.

Thank you. I’m painting them in batches. The bigger and common steps across all minis. So took a long time. If I had to guess probably something like 15-20 hours for the screamer all in all. Space Marine was done with bits I had left and green stuff
Finally some more progress on my 'Nids

After having completed the nodebeast with black carapace, I kind of wish I would
have gone with this color scheme for all the others haha
Corpses for the corpsegod!
Weshammer is pretty good too
I’d say probably about 2-3 months; maybe more
You should probably stop worrying too much about “experts” opinions. Now don’t get me wrong I do know that we’re facing problems but claiming everything will collapse in 5 years is just fearmongering.
Experts of the past claimed London would drown in horse poop, around came the automobile.
Experts claimed Y2K would be a major issue, here we are.
You see the issue? Future predictions are rarely true and most of the time way out of proportion. And that’s especially true for predictions of global climate, currents and even the weather
Thank god we have people like you who can predict the future. Tell me will this next revolution starve those people before or after carbon emissions collapse our food chain?
